University of Texas at Tyler Reports Findings in Anxiety Disorders (Efficacy of 15-minute Music Intervention On Nursing Students' Anxiety, Self-efficacy, and Performance In Simulation Testing: a Randomized Study).

A study conducted at the University of Texas at Tyler focused on the impact of anxiety on nursing students' performance during simulation-based training. The research involved 102 Bachelor of Science in Nursing students, with participants randomized into control and experimental groups. Results showed that a 15-minute music intervention significantly reduced anxiety, increased self-efficacy, and improved performance in the experimental group compared to the control group. This study suggests that music-listening interventions could be effective in enhancing nursing students' learning outcomes during simulation training. [Extracted from the article]
