摘要：
Background: In clinical practice, nurses often overestimate patients' health literacy (HL). A classroom simulation of inadequate HL was conducted with second-year nursing students to explore its impact on HL assessment and nurse-patient communication. Method: A retrospective qualitative content analysis of 39 students' narrative responses to four open-ended questions revealed their experience of inadequate HL after being quizzed with unfamiliar medical jargon. Results: The following five themes emerged: empathy, nervousness, embarrassment, helplessness, and communication. Conclusion: The simulation facilitated the students' empathy for patients and their future communication with them. HL simulation should be incorporated into early undergraduate nursing education.
