An International Multicenter Mental Health Standardized Patient Simulation on Nursing Students ’ Beliefs Toward Mental Health Conditions

Mental health conditions are on the rise worldwide, and this increase poses a serious issue for public health (National  Institute of Mental Health, 2020; World Health Organization [WHO], 2021). Increased population with mental health conditions along with lack of financial resources for mental health services (Canady, 2019; Soygur, 2016; WHO, 2021), variations in availability of clinical placements, and chall enges when teaching and learning in a mental health clinical setting may contribute to stigmatizing views toward persons living with mental health conditions (Hsiao, Lu,& Tsai, 2015; Sengun  Inan, Gunusen, Cetinkaya Duman,& Yonder Ertem, 2019).
