Brief summary: The study aimed to determine the effect of different simulation methods on nursing students' self-confidence, satisfaction, and clinical breastfeeding management knowledge and skills in managing and supporting breastfeeding in the early postpartum period.

Detailed description: This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of simulation-based training methods in improving the breastfeeding management knowledge and skills of third-year nursing students. The study utilized a quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test control groups. The results of the intervention groups that received high-fidelity, hybrid, and telesimulation training were compared with a control group that received traditional training. A clinical follow-up phase was conducted after the interventions to evaluate their impact. The study used various data collection tools to measure different factors, including knowledge and skills, confidence in learning, satisfaction, training satisfaction, and self-assessment of simulations.
