This study aims to evaluate the effect of artificial intelligence (AI)-supported virtual reality (VR) simulation on nursing students' holistic care skills. The study is a randomised controlled trial involving fourth-year nursing students, divided into an experimental and a control group. Whilst the experimental group will receive AI-supported VR simulation training, the control group will receive traditional case-based training. Outcomes to be assessed include decision-making, symptom identification, nursing diagnosis, simulation design and satisfaction with the training methods.
