Pre-Simulation Survey

The pre-simulation survey should be administered before students receive training and instruction on the use of the simulation. This will normally occur at the start of a unit. The pre-simulation survey measures a number of constructs. Individual scale items can be downloaded by clicking on the links in the table below.
