The authors describe the process used to implement simulation in a small baccalaureate nursing program and provide examples of how simulation can be used to facilitate the development of key curricular concepts such as critical thinking, therapeutic interventions, and communication. The primary focus is on the use of high-fidelity patient simulators and human "standardized patients."
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 19 March 2013.
All research outputs
#22,758,309
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from Nurse Educator
#1,698
of 1,761 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#92,168
of 95,711 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nurse Educator
#4
of 5 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,761 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.2. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 95,711 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 5 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
