Findings From Oral Communicative Competence During Simulation Among Nursing Students
Open accessAbstract
• What is currently known about this topic? Acquiring oral communication skills is essential in the academic training of nursing students. This will undoubtedly influence patient safety, as it will develop the necessary teamwork in caring for people with health alterations or promoting health. • What the paper adds to the existing knowledge? This paper highlights students' difficulties in collecting data and communicating relevant information in a structured way when dealing with a given health situation. • How the information in your manuscript can be applied to practice? Students can learn to capture and communicate information in a structured way by applying the SAVER/SBAR methodology, explained in the paper. This methodology allows the collection and structuring, in a systematized and dynamic way, of data of interest for the approach of different clinical situations. Acquiring oral communication skills is essential in the academic training of nursing students. This will undoubtedly influence students' safety in caring for people. A diagnosis of the communicative competence of students enrolled in the course Nursing Care in Adults II (laboratory practice) was proposed. A preliminary descriptive observational study has been carried out regarding oral communicative competence in clinical practice, based on the structure Situation, Background, Assessment, Exploration, and Recommendation (SAVER/SBAR) of the TeamStepps® methodology, to which other indicators considered necessary for oral communication. Cronbach's alpha (0.743) tested the scale's reliability. The set of 6 criteria analyzed shows that the group generally shows a limited ability and inability to communicate and transmit information, ranging from primary (33.35%) to adequate (41.6%). A significant relationship is detected between this criterion and the Organization of structured data according to the SAVER/SBAR method (p=.005) This analysis highlights the need to train communication skills in critical situations where data collection and transmission accuracy are crucial.

Externalization of cognitive work to AI systems may weaken self-regulated learning and independent problem-solving when used as a substitute rather than a scaffold.
“This pattern suggests the externalization of cognitive work to AI systems, echoing concerns that generative AI may weaken self-regulated learning and independent problem-solving when used as a substitute rather than a scaffold [5, 19, 38].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
