Brief summary

Objectives: This study aimed to determine the effect of music on nursing students' skills, anxiety, self-confidence perception, and vital signs.

Detailed description

Design: Single-blinded study with parallel groups. Setting: Faculty of Nursing. Participants: Sixty first-year students who took the Nursing Fundamentals course were randomly assigned to the intervention (n = 30) and control (n = 30) groups. Methods: Data were collected using the Student Information Form, Subjective Self-Confidence Assessment Tool, and State Anxiety Scale from April 6 to 11, 2022. The students in the intervention group listened to music for 15 min before and during the peripheral intravenous catheter placement skill practice, while no intervention was applied in the control group.

Masking description

Participant blinding was performed in this study. Students did not interact with each other while practicing the PIVC placement in different laboratory rooms on the same day. Thus, students were prevented from knowing their group allocation. In addition, when the students received information about the study, they did not know which group they belonged to because they were not informed about the groups. Investigators could not be blinded, as they knew the group allocation of each student group.
