Creative therapy methods to enhance clinical reasoning

Abstract

This quasi-experimental, nonrandomized pre-/post-test study examined the impact of humanities-based teaching and learning strategies on the development of critical-thinking and clinical-reasoning skills among BSN students enrolled in a maternal/newborn nursing course. Results indicated that the humanities-based approaches significantly impact the development of clinical reasoning skills (p < .05).
