Abstract :This study was conducted as a control group, pretest-posttest quasi-experimental study between February 2024 and May 2024 with a total of 140 nursing students in the 3rd and 4th grades at a nursing school in the Western Black Sea Region of Turkey. This study was conducted as a control group, pretest-posttest quasi-experimental study between February 2024 and May 2024 with a total of 140 nursing students in the 3rd and 4th grades at a nursing school in the Western Black Sea Region of Turkey. Data were collected as pre-test and post-test using the “Introductory Information Form”, “Self-Efficacy Scale for Medication Administration in Children for Nursing Students” and “Scale for the Effectiveness of Concept Maps in Nursing Education ”. The nursing students in the training group (n=70) were given face-to-face training on drug administration in children based on concept mapping in the form of a powerpoint presentation in 4 sessions once a week. Nursing students in the control group (n=70) were not given any training. Chi-square, dependent sample t test and independent sample t test were used to analyze the data. In the post-test, nursing students in the training group had significantly higher scores on the Self-Efficacy Scale for Medication Administration in Children and the Effectiveness of Concept Mapping in Nursing Education Scale compared to the control group. It was found that the concept map-based education given to nursing students had positive effects on increasing the level of medication administration self-efficacy in children.
