Published: July 2022

Objectives: to translate and cross-culturally validate the Lasater Clinical Judgment Rubric© (LCJR©) instrument for nursing students.

Methods: the application of LCJR-PT© was preceded by a linguistic translation into Portuguese, based on the translation-back-translation method. This psychometric study involved 32 nursing students from a program in Portugal. Data were collected through observations of two independent observers during the performance of the practices developed by the students, through the scenarios validated by experts of high and of medium-fidelity simulation.

Results: of the 64 observations obtained from the practices of nursing students, the value of intra-class correlations in the 4 aspects of the instrument exceeded 0.792. There was a global Cronbach's alpha of LCJR-PT© of 0.921 and 0.876 in Observers 1 and 2 respectively, with a statistically significant level of agreement.

Conclusions: the LCJR-PT© is a valid and reliable instrument, demonstrating a high potential for its use in clinical education and nursing research.

Introduction: Gaining clinical judgment competence among student nurses is a significant outcome of nursing education. In this education process, an assessment tool based on observable behaviors is needed for evaluating students' clinical judgment skills.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Lasater Clinical Judgment Rubric, which assesses student nurses' stages of clinical judgment competency in simulation-based education.

This study evaluated the effects of a critical reflection program utilizing the Lasater Clinical Judgment Rubric (LCJR) reflective questions based on the Clinical Judgment Model (CJM) on newly graduated nurses' clinical judgment skills. A total of 153 newly graduated nurses scheduled for on-site training in a ward nursing unit were divided into a control group (receiving only the usual on-site training with preceptorship) and an experimental group (receiving the developed program with the same on-site training with preceptorship as the control group). Data were collected at baseline, 6 weeks, and 3 months after the intervention.

Background: Current literature demonstrates a gap in research involving mixed method study of clinical judgment development in prelicensure nursing students.

Objectives: Clinical judgment of two groups of nursing students were compared using the Lasater Clinical Judgment Rubric (LCJR).

Design: A mixed method convergent parallel quasi-experimental cross-sectional approach was used to determine if simulation increased clinical judgment skills between beginner and advanced pre-licensure nursing students.

Background: Nurse educators and students consider clinical learning experiences to be the best method for learning clinical judgment skills. Research on the relationship between dedicated education units (DEUs) and nursing students' clinical judgment skills is scarce. This study investigated the effects of a DEU on Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) students' clinical judgment skills.

Background: There is a lack of longitudinal studies measuring student progression in clinical judgment. Previous studies measured gains in clinical judgment after 1 intervention or over 1 semester.

Purpose: This study evaluated the development and progression of clinical judgment in simulation throughout a prelicensure bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) program using the Lasater Clinical Judgment Rubric (LCJR).
