ABSTRACT

Introduction: Simulation can foster the students' confidence in the achievement of clinical skills due to a greater sense of self-efficacy and internal locus of control. which is given by the skill to perform a successful task and by the perception of controlling the results of the events. Objective: To evaluate the effect of a simulated clinical situation as a learning method to promote the development of self-efficacy and the locus of control, in clinical skills such as blood pressure control, radial pulse, and pulmonary examination, in nursing students. Methods: Randomized experimental study on three groups exposed to a simulated clinical situation with low and high fidelity simulations, and simulated patient, with the application of pre- and post-test of self-efficacy and locus of control and the evaluation of clinical skills such as blood pressure, pulse and pulmonary examination. Results: No significant differences were observed in the self-efficacy index, except for item 6: "When I am in difficulties I can remain calm because I have the necessary skills to handle difficult situations." The students of the control group and the simulated patient reported values close to the midpoint of the internal control locus scale. When analyzed by clinical activity, the control group shows a higher level of achievement. Conclusions: The incorporation of advanced technologies must be gradual throughout the major, so that the student becomes familiar with them, since facing unknown technologies can influence on the attainment of clinical skill and in their level of self-efficacy and locus of control.
