dc.description.abstractThis is a descriptive study which aimed at: ► determining the views of reliability of simulation in evaluating the following selected competencies: affective skills cognitive skills psychomotor skills *■ determining the relations between the respondents views on the use of simulation in evaluation. * deteniiining the relations between respondents views on the objectivity in handling simulation during practical examination. In 1994 the nurse educators of Ngwelezane, Benedictine and Nqutu colleges were interviewed to determine the reliability of simulation to evaluate competence. Questionnaires and interview schedules were used to determine the extent of reliability and possible solutions from nurse educators and professional nurses. The major findings of the study suggested the following: * that simulation is widely used by other professionals such as the medical profession, but is used for formative rather than summative evaluation. that most of the respondents perceived simulation as not depicting the real clinical situation. > that simulation is neither consistent, precise, accurate nor stable to evaluate cognitive psychomotor and especially affective competencies or skills. ► that simulation be used for conditions which are not readily available. The researcher made recommendations based on the above findings.en_US
