Methodology: This cross-sectional, quasi-experimental study sample included 30 nursing students studying in the third year of a nursing school. The students participated in a drug administration simulation after filling out the socio-demographic information form. The simulation was evaluated using The Student Satisfaction, Self-Confidence in Learning Scale, students' learning levels were evaluated using the Perceived Learning Level Scale. Results: Of the participants, 86.7% were female, their mean age was 22.5±3.25. The Satisfaction and Self- Confidence in Learning Scale indicated that the mean satisfaction score was 4.260±0.735, and the mean selfconfidence in learning score was 4.095±0.591. The students, who were satisfied with the application in the relationship between satisfaction and self-confidence, also had higher self-confidence (p:0.000). Conclusion: Using simulation increases the nursing students' satisfaction, self-confidence, and learning levels.
