Effect of RECAST-H Reverse Case Studies on Nursing Student Professional Readiness
ClinicalTrials.gov Studies
Summary
NIH registered a new clinical study (NCT07539363) examining whether reverse case studies based on the heutagogy educational approach improve professional readiness among final-year nursing students. The randomized controlled trial will compare an intervention group receiving the RECAST-H program with a waiting-list control group, measuring professional readiness, career adaptability, professional socialization, and psychological capital as outcomes. The study has an anticipated start date of April 20, 2026.
What changed
A new clinical study registration for NCT07539363 was added to ClinicalTrials.gov. The study will evaluate the effect of reverse case studies based on the heutagogy approach on professional readiness, career adaptability, professional socialization, and psychological capital among final-year nursing students. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group or a waiting-list control group.
Nursing education programs and healthcare institutions may find these results relevant when considering new pedagogical approaches to prepare students for professional practice. The study's focus on transition shock and professional socialization addresses common challenges nursing graduates face during the transition to clinical practice.

Effect of "RECAST-H" (REverse CAses STudies Based on Heutagogy Approach) on Professional Readiness
N/A NCT07539363 Kind: NA Apr 20, 2026
Abstract
The goal of this study is to examine the effect of reverse case studies based on the heutagogical approach on the level of readiness for the profession among final-year nursing students.
The hypotheses are:
H0-1: There is no difference in the level of professional readiness between the control group and the intervention group that underwent reverse case studies based on the heutagogy approach.
H0-2: There is no difference in career adaptability between the control group and the intervention group that underwent reverse case studies based on the heutagogy approach.
H0-3: There is no difference in professional socialization between the control group and the intervention group that underwent reverse case studies based on the heutagogy approach.
Secondary Hypothesis:
H0-4: There is no difference in psychological capital levels between the control group and the intervention group that underwent reverse case studies based on the heutagogy approach.
Researchers will compare the heutagogy-based reverse case studies program group with the waiting-list control group to evaluate its effects on professional readiness, career adaptability, professional socialization, and psychological capital.
Participants will:
- complete baseline assessments
- be randomly assigned to either the intervention group or the waiting-list control group
- receive reverse case studies program based on the heutagogy approach (intervention group)
- complete post-intervention assessments after the educ...
