Effect of Team-Based Learning Interventions on the Learning Competency of Korean Nursing Students: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis by Kawoun Seo, Seyeon Park

“…The standardized mean difference for communication ability, self-efficacy, and learning ability was 0.74 (confidence interval = 0.22–1.26, <i>p</i> = 0.004), 0.32 (confidence interval = 0.13–0.51, <i>p</i> = 0.005), and 0.44 (confidence interval = 0.26–0.63, <i>p</i> < 0.001), respectively. Notably, TBL had the most significant impact on problem-solving ability, with a standardized mean difference of 1.10 (confidence interval = 0.37–1.83, <i>p</i> = 0.006), suggesting that TBL is particularly effective in fostering problem-solving skills among nursing students. …”
