Few studies have focused on evaluating nursing students' satisfaction with different types of simulation, and in particular using valid and reliable instruments. A descriptive, cross-sectional and retrospective post-test study was conducted to examine nursing students’ satisfaction with low-fidelity simulation (LFS) and high-fidelity simulation (HFS). Thirty-five 4th year nursing students who met the eligibility criteria completed the Satisfaction with Simulation Experience Scale (SSE) and a demographic questionnaire via Fluidsurvey. A paired t-test analysis revealed a significant difference in the CL subscale mean scores between LFS (M = 4.09) and HFS (M = 3.78), p = 0.008. The ranking question revealed that the opportunities to practice new skills, and to apply clinical reasoning and decision-making were among the top three ranked features for both LFS and HFS. Also included in the top three ranked items identified for LFS was the preparation of materials and orientation and for HFS was engagement and realism. / February 2016

<p> As researchers continue to be hesitant with the new fourth component of the Dark Tetrad, everyday sadism, Paulhus and his colleagues (Furnham, Richards, Paulhus, 2013) stated that it requires a more thorough investigation. One way of expanding the research is looking more in-depth at behavioral interactions with significant others and how it affects relationship satisfaction. Conflicts and arguments within a relationship have been shown to hinder one&rsquo;s relationship satisfaction. However, would someone who is considered sadistic enjoy having conflicts with their significant other? From this study, it was found that sadism has a negative effect on sadistic individuals&rsquo; perceived relationship satisfaction. Furthermore, couples&rsquo; conflicts within their significant relationship has a partial effect on how they perceived their relationship as well. Overall, the current study adds new information to existing research by defining how everyday sadist&rsquo;s behaviors effect their relationship satisfaction with their partner.</p><p>
