AI-Based Communication Simulation and Human Library Narratives.

This assessment evaluates nursing students' communication performance in doctor-patient interactions. The scale covers eight core communication skills, including: guiding patients and their families in their communication, building positive nurse-patient relationships, using verbal and nonverbal skills, clearly conveying key points, active listening, recognizing and responding to emotions, providing appropriate health guidance, and presenting information in a structured manner. The scale uses a five-point Likert scale, ranging from 1 point for "strongly disagree" to 5 points for "strongly agree," with a total score between 8 and 40. Higher scores indicate better communication skills.

This study measures nursing students' level of empathy in clinical settings. The scale includes three dimensions: perspective-taking, emotional care, and putting oneself in another's shoes. The scale comprises three dimensions: perspective-taking, emotional concern, and empathy, totaling 20 items, 10 of which are reverse-scored. It uses a seven-point Likert scale (1 = strongly disagree, 7 = strongly agree), with a total score of 20-140. Higher scores indicate better empathy.

The assessment of nursing students' difficulties in regulating emotions includes six dimensions: insufficient emotional awareness, difficulty in clarifying emotions, inability to accept emotions, difficulty in controlling impulses, obstruction of goal-oriented behavior, and lack of effective emotion regulation strategies. The scale consists of 36 items, comprising six dimensions: insufficient emotional awareness, difficulty in emotional clarification, inability to accept emotions, difficulty in impulse control, obstruction of goal-oriented behavior, and lack of effective emotion regulation strategies. The scale uses a five-point Likert scale (1 = almost never, 5 = almost always). Many items are reversed; after conversion, higher scores indicate greater difficulty in emotion regulation.

The 5R model provides a clear, phased framework for reflection, helping students transform experiences into learning insights. The 5R structured reflective writing model includes: event description, personal emotional and behavioral reactions, understanding and reasons behind the behavior, connections to past experiences or knowledge, and improvement strategies for future situations. This sequential framework helps students deepen their understanding of situations, become aware of their own emotional reactions, and promote reflection and adjustment of clinical communication behaviors.

To gain a deeper understanding of the changes in students' learning experiences, feelings, empathy, and emotional regulation abilities related to the teaching intervention in this study-"AI Communication Simulation and Human Library Narrative"-this study employed focus group interviews as one of the qualitative data collection tools. This was done to supplement the deep learning experiences that quantitative data could not present and to serve as an important basis for optimizing teaching models.
