Measuring Debilitating and Facilitating Anxiety Within Nursing Simulation.
Article in Nursing reports (Pavia, Italy), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundAnxiety in simulations can be influenced by various factors that either motivate or immobilize students. Understanding simulation anxiety is crucial for educators to design appropriately challenging scenarios without overwhelming students. No instruments have yet been tested to differentiate between debilitating and facilitating anxiety within nursing simulations.
methodsA quantitative repeated measures design was used to examine students' baseline and pre-simulation anxiety with 90 pre-licensure junior level nursing students. The Achievement Anxiety Test (AAT) was administered to differentiate levels of debilitating and facilitating anxiety.
resultsThe revised AAT demonstrated preliminary validity and reliability for measuring debilitating and facilitating anxiety when used in nursing simulation. Linear regression showed only debilitating anxiety significantly predicted pre-simulation state anxiety. Baseline anxiety has a significant impact on students, increasing debilitating anxiety in simulated settings.
conclusionsTo ensure success in practice settings, it is important to address students baseline anxiety to support a successful transition into practice. This study was prospectively determined to be exempt with the University's Institutional Review Board on 6 December 2022 and was not prospectively registered in a formal registry.
