The aim of this study is to examine the effect of colostomy care training based on Jeffries' Simulation Theory on nursing students' knowledge, skills, stress, self-efficacy, readiness, state anxiety, satisfaction, and self-confidence. The study seeks to answer the following hypotheses: H1: Colostomy care training based on Jeffries' Simulation Theory affects nursing students' knowledge levels. H2: Colostomy care training based on Jeffries' Simulation Theory affects nursing students' skill levels. H3: Colostomy care training based on Jeffries' Simulation Theory affects nursing students' stress levels. H4: Colostomy care training based on Jeffries' Simulation Theory affects nursing students' self-efficacy levels. H5: Colostomy care training based on Jeffries' Simulation Theory affects nursing students' preparedness levels. H6: Colostomy care training based on Jeffries' Simulation Theory affects nursing students' levels of situational anxiety. H7: Colostomy care training based on Jeffries' Simulation Theory affects nursing students' levels of learning satisfaction and self-confidence. According to the Colostomy Care Training Booklet prepared by the researchers, all students will receive training on colostomy care procedures. Students in the intervention group will be individually taken to the simulation laboratory for colostomy care applications using moulage on standardized (simulated) patients, and they will be asked to perform the skills acquired during the training. The effectiveness of this intervention will be evaluated by comparing the intervention group with a control group. Participants: Students in the standardized patient simulation group will perform colostomy bag change and colostomy care skills in the simulation laboratory. Students in the low-fidelity simulation group (control group) will perform colostomy bag change and colostomy care skills using a low-fidelity patient model.

RECRUITINGColostomy care training based on Jeffries' Simulation Theory provided to nursing students leads to changes in knowledge level scores.
Colostomy Care Knowledge Assessment Test: The score obtained from the scale ranges from 0 to 100 points. As the score increases, the level of knowledge increases.
Time frame: within one week of the simulation exercise
The colostomy care training provided to nursing students based on Jeffries' Simulation Theory leads to changes in skill scores.
Colostomy Care Skills Assessment Form: The score ranges from 0 to 100. As the score increases, so does the level of skill.
Time frame: within one week of the simulation exercise
The colostomy care training provided to nursing students based on Jeffries' Simulation Theory leads to changes in stress level scores.
Stress Perception Scale for Nursing Students: The total score on the scale ranges from 0 to 116. A high score on the scale indicates a high level of stress.
Time frame: within one week of the simulation exercise
The colostomy care training provided to nursing students based on Jeffries' Simulation Theory leads to changes in their self-efficacy scores.
Self-Efficacy Scale for Clinical Assessment: The lowest possible mean item score on the scale is 0, and the highest is 100. A high score on the scale indicates a high level of self-efficacy regarding clinical performance, whilst a low score indicates a low level of self-efficacy regarding clinical performance.
Time frame: within one week of the simulation exercise
The colostomy care training provided to nursing students based on Jeffries' Simulation Theory leads to changes in readiness scores.
Casey-Fink Readiness for Practice Scale: The minimum score on the scale is 15 and the maximum is 60. As the score on the scale increases, students' level of readiness for practice increases.
Time frame: within one week of the simulation exercise
The colostomy care training provided to nursing students based on Jeffries' Simulation Theory leads to changes in state anxiety scores.
State-Trait Anxiety Inventory: Scores on the scale range from 20 to 80. A higher score indicates a higher level of anxiety, whilst a lower score indicates a lower level of anxiety.
Time frame: within one week of the simulation exercise
The colostomy care training provided to nursing students based on Jeffries' Simulation Theory leads to changes in student satisfaction and self-confidence levels in learning.
Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence Scale in Learning: The sum of the scale's sub-dimensions does not yield the total scale score; scores are obtained by dividing the sum of the sub-dimension items by the number of items in the relevant sub-dimension. As the score obtained from the scale increases, students' satisfaction with learning and self-confidence also increase.
Time frame: within one week of the simulation exercise
