This study examined the effects of scenario-based education for patients with difficulty urination on nelaton knowledge, nelaton confidence, and nelaton catheterization skill ability of nursing college students. The data for this study were collected from May to June 2019, and were conducted for the third grade nursing students located in J city. A non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design was used in 75 junior nursing college students subjects who were assigned to the experimental group 37 and the control group 38. The collected data was analyzed through the ��2-test, independent t-test and paired-test. There were significant differences in nelaton confidence(t=4.60, p<.001), nelaton catheterization skill ability(t=3.46, p=.001). But scenario-based education was found to be insignificant in the nelaton knowledge of nursing students. Difficulty urination scenario-based education can be used as an effective educational intervention to improve nelaton confidence and nelaton catheterization skill ability. However, in nelaton knowledge, it is necessary to verify the effectiveness of education through additional research.
