Summary

Objective: This study evaluated the effectiveness of breastfeeding education using different simulation techniques on nursing students' breastfeeding knowledge, counseling skills, and clinical self-efficacy. Method: The study sample consisted of 157 nursing students. Data were collected using a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Breastfeeding Assistance Clinical Preparedness Scale, the Breastfeeding Knowledge Form, the Clinical Self-Efficacy in Performance Scale, and the Breastfeeding Counseling Skills Checklist. Conclusion: We expect that simulation and standardized patient-based breastfeeding education will effectively improve nursing students' readiness for breastfeeding assistance, breastfeeding knowledge, breastfeeding counseling skills, and clinical self-efficacy in breastfeeding performance.
