The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of a poverty simulation on the attitudes of baccalaureate nursing students toward those living in poverty. A single-group pretest-posttest design was used. Participants' attitudes were measured using the Attitude Toward Poverty Scale-Short Form. Results indicated significant improvement in 11 out of 21 items, along with the subscales for stigma and structural perspectives. However, four items, along with the overall personal deficiency domain score, indicated a significant worsening of attitudes. Results of this study are mixed and suggest that valid concerns exist regarding the administration of the simulation.
本研究的目的是评估贫困模拟对护理学本科学生对待贫困人口态度的影响。采用单组前测-后测设计。使用《贫困态度量表简版》来测量参与者的态度。结果表明，21个项目中的11个项目以及耻辱感和结构视角的子量表有显著改善。然而，有4个项目以及总体个人缺陷领域得分显示态度显著恶化。本研究结果喜忧参半，表明在模拟实施方面存在合理的担忧。
