Published: July 1998

Role-play is a teaching strategy that models patient behaviors and nursing interventions that students need to learn in psychiatric nursing. Applications of this strategy can be used in both classroom and clinical settings. Benefits of using role-play range from cost effectiveness and active learning to modeling expected performance/skill levels and increasing self-confidence and assertiveness. Perceived drawbacks can be minimized by using the planning steps prior to the use of role-play.

December 2024

From the Skills Lab TheSiMa (U.L., L.H., M.S., I.P., J.J.K.), Department of Study and Teaching Development, Medical Faculty Mannheim, Heidelberg University, Mannheim, Germany; and Department of Medical Statistics, Biomathematics and Information Processing (S.H.), Medical Faculty Mannheim, Heidelberg University, Mannheim, Germany.
