Abstract

This research aimed to examine the effects of using reflective thinking skills on nursing behavior for humanized care among nursing students. In this quasi research, 32 second-year nursing students were recruited by purposive sampling. The study was undertaken during a practice class of the nursing skills course. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired t-test for mean comparison. The findings showed that the mean score comparisons at post intervention were at a very good level and increased. Nursing students showed a significant increase in behavior for humanized care (t = 7.48, p < .001). After engaging in practice post intervention, the mean scores for service mind were at a very good level (Mean = 4.73, SD. = .27), the mean scores for participation were at a very good level (Mean = 4.71, SD. = .29), and the mean scores for analytical thinking were at a good level (Mean = 4.48, SD. = .40) In conclusion, reflective thinking encourages students to have service behavior for humanized care.
