The students were divided into two groups as experimental and control groups. Prior to the study, the students were provided with an information form and the Scale of Problem Solving Inventory (PSI) and the Neonatal Resuscitation Knowledge Exam were conducted on both of the groups to determine the individual characteristics of the students. The students in the experimental group were trained with the “Scenario-Based Simulation Application” while the control group was given a theoretical lecture on “Neonatal Resuscitation” by the researcher. After two weeks, the final tests were applied to both groups. <br />Result: The averages of the student grades from the Neonatal Resuscitation examination after the training revealed a difference between the groups and that simulation group got higher grades, and the averages of the student groups from the PSI determined that the total grade averages of trust, personal control and total score were significantly different. <br />Conclusion: The use of simulation in the neonatal resuscitation training of the First Aid and Emergency students is effective and it increases the knowledge score averages and problem-solving skills of the student. <br /> </p>}, number={2}, publisher={Çukurova Üniversitesi}
