Exploring Cognitive Biases and Clinical Reasoning During Simulation With BScN Students

Clinical reasoning skills are essential for nurses to provide competent, evidenced informed nursing care. Cognitive biases are flaws in judgment that may have a negative impact on clinical reasoning skills. This pilot project used simulation based learning (SBL) to explore cognitive biases and the impact of these biases on clinical reasoning in BScN nursing students. Sample: Semester 7 undergraduate nursing students (n  = 19) of an eight-semester curriculum.
