Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Student's knowledge scores

  The Pressure Ulcer Knowledge Assessment Tool (PUKAT 2.0), which assesses knowledge levels, was used to measure the study's primary outcome. Developed in 2017, this tool has a maximum score of 24, with higher scores indicating a greater level of knowledge (Manderlier et al., 2017).

  It used for first week of the research as a pre-test and fifth week of the research as a post-test

• Student's performance scores

  The Pressure Injury Evaluation Skill Checklist was used to evaluate student's performance scores. It was developed by the researcher based on expert feedback and was used to evaluate students' skills. Scores on the Pressure Injury Evaluation Skill Checklist range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better performance in pressure injury skills.

  It used fifth week of the research during the laboratory exam

• Student's motivation scores

  The ARCS Motivation Learning Scale was used to measure student motivation scores. It was developed by Keller in 2010 (Keller, 2010). This scale has a scoring range of 0 to 165, with higher scores showing increased student motivation toward the course.

  It used for first week of the research after the laboratory training

Model Details: : The research is a randomized controlled, quasi-experimental study. The population of the study consisted of 130 first-year students enrolled at Gülhane Faculty of Nursing, University of Health Sciences. Students were randomized into intervention and control groups using a computer program. A mobile augmented reality application was utilized to train students in the intervention group on pressure injury prevention, while students in the control group received traditional educational methods. Data collection occurred in two phases: preparation and implementation. In the preparation phase, presentation materials for the training, the mobile augmented reality application, and data collection forms were developed, and a pilot study was conducted. In the implementation phase, all students received the theoretical training together, while the laboratory sessions were conducted separately for each group. Then, the same evaluation steps were applied to all students.
