The effectiveness of simulation as a teaching technique has been extensively documented in numerous health care professions; however, little is known about the effectiveness of simulation techniques in audiology education. This study assesses the effectiveness of a simulation activity focused on auditory brainstem response (ABR) testing conducted with students of an applied doctoral program in audiology.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Method<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Twelve 2nd year audiology graduate students enrolled in the auditory electrophysiology course at Towson University in Fall 2018 participated in this pre\u2013post study. Over a 3-week period, each student (a) received didactic instruction in ABR testing, (b) underwent a presimulation exercise skills assessment, (c) participated in a simulation exercise, and (d) underwent a postsimulation exercise skills assessment.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Significant improvements were observed in clinical skill level for the ABR tasks evaluated in terms of both accuracy and efficiency (time in seconds needed to complete the task). The tasks evaluated included skin preparation, identification of scalp electrode placement sites, and scalp electrode placement in a variety of configurations (single- and two-channel arrays, horizontal and vertical electrode montages). Benefits associated with simulation-based instruction varied by clinical skill as well as by student.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>The data described in this study reinforce the need to incorporate simulation in audiology training programs, especially for complex clinical skills. It also emphasizes the need for additional research that can be useful in the design and implementation of simulation-based exercises.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1044\/2021_aja-20-00191","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,30]],"date-time":"2021-04-30T19:53:53Z","timestamp":1619812433000},"page":"394-403","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Effectiveness of Simulation Training on Graduate Audiology Students' Auditory Brainstem Response Testing Skills"],"prefix":"10.1044","volume":"30","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2700-1962","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amanda","family":"Reed","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology, Towson University, MD"},{"name":"Live Better Hearing + Balance, Frederick, MD"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alexandra","family":"Andre","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology, Towson University, MD"},{"name":"Chesapeake Ear, Nose, and Throat, a division of The Centers for Advanced ENT Care, LLC, Owings Mills, MD"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Saradha","family":"Ananthakrishnan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology, Towson University, MD"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Peggy","family":"Korczak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology, Towson University, MD"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1310","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1044\/2019_AJA-18-0185"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1044\/2016_AJA-16-0029"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_3_2_4_1","first-page":"12","article-title":"Audiology students' perception of hybrid simulation experiences: Qualitative evaluation of debriefing sessions","volume":"2","author":"Alanazi A.
