This quantitative study considered perceived stress and positive psychological capital (hope, efficacy, resilience, and optimism) through a health literacy renal simulation. Examining 41 nursing students" responses throughout the experience, these factors were further understood; subsequently, deficits can be identified in novice nurses' careers leading to future engagement as healthcare providers.
