Project: "Development of virtual reality for nursing students: ECT"
For this project the researchers will adapte 'health belief model' as a core concept for developing knowledge, attitude and skills of nursing students to take care of psychiatric patients with ECT. For their practice, the participants will be taught to take care of patients with ECT into 3 phases: before, during, and after ECT.
The researchers believe that this VR technology will help Thai-nursing students better understand and know how to take care of patients with ECT.
This project will consist of two phase. phase I: developing VR- ECT technology for nursing students. we will pilot test VR-ECT in Nursing students by randomizing nursing students volunteers into two groups: an experimental group and waitlist control group (N = 140). Knowledge, attitude and satisfaction and self-confidence will be measured at baseline (day 1), week 8 after intervention complete
