Abstract：
BACKGROUND: Simulation-based learning experiences allow undergraduate nursing students to develop competence and confidence through deliberate practice with immediate feedback on the learner\'s performance through debriefing. With the transition to competency-based nursing education, nursing faculty need more guidance in implementing competency-based evaluations in the simulation setting.
OBJECTIVE: This Delphi study aims to inform the future development of a competency-based tool - SimComp - based on the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) Essentials.
METHODS: A Delphi framework was used to recruit expert nursing faculty to complete the surveys via an online platform. Data analysis occurred through open-ended questions and quantitative methods to ensure that the responses from expert panelists were used to form the results.
RESULTS: After four rounds of this Delphi study, a consensus was achieved on 111 appropriate items for assessing competence in the simulation-based learning environment.
CONCLUSIONS: While further research is warranted, this study provides insight for nursing institutions considering implementing or increasing the use of simulation within their program for competency-based evaluations.

摘要：
背景：基于模拟的学习经历使本科护生能够通过刻意的实践来发展能力和信心，并通过汇报对学习者的表现进行即时反馈。随着以能力为基础的护理教育的过渡，在模拟环境中实施基于能力的评估时，护理教师需要更多的指导。
目的：这项Delphi研究旨在为基于美国护理学院协会（AACN）Essentials的基于能力的工具SimComp的未来发展提供信息。
方法：使用Delphi框架招募专家护理教师通过在线平台完成调查。通过开放式问题和定量方法进行数据分析，以确保使用专家小组成员的答复来形成结果。
结果：经过四轮德尔菲研究，在基于模拟的学习环境中评估能力的111个适当项目上达成了共识.
结论：虽然需要进一步的研究，本研究为护理机构考虑在其基于能力的评估计划中实施或增加模拟的使用提供了见解。
