nication education (ComEd) program and an attention control (AC) program on communication knowledge,
learning self-efficacy, and communication efficacy at baseline and twice after the intervention (immediately
after and two weeks after); and (2) assess the acceptability and satisfaction of the ComEd reported by the
participants.
Design: This study employed a mixed-method, randomized controlled design with repeated measures.
Methods: Students were recruited from four nursing schools and randomly assigned to either the intervention or
AC group. They received either the ComEd or AC program installed on a tablet PC or a desktop computer in the
classrooms and completed a 15-item communication knowledge scale, 10-item learning self-efficacy scale, 22-
item communication efficacy scale, and 14-item satisfaction scale. In addition, six open-ended questions were
used to help participants reflect on their learning experiences and explore their satisfaction with the programs.
The Generalized Estimating Equation (GEE) model was the main model employed to examine the effects of the
ComEd program over time in comparison with the AC program, and the content analysis method was used for
qualitative data.
Results: In total, 131 nursing students (66 in ComEd and 65 in AC) completed the programs and 127 participated
through the two-week follow-up test. Compared to the AC group, the ComEd group significantly improved
communication knowledge, learning self-efficacy, and communication efficacy; these effects were maintained at
two weeks. The ComEd program was well accepted by the participants.
Conclusions: The ComEd is a promising approach because it is highly accessible, consistent, and repeatable, and
has positive learning effects.
