ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of using mental imagery to teach simple psychomotor skill and to compare the outcomes with the traditional method [demonstration and redemonstration]. The findings suggested that the subjects were able to clearly perceive the skill and they felt that mental imagery method was helpful and interesting. Significant differences were noted in the performance of the study control groups. The study results, call attention to the fact that some of the nursing psychomotor skills can be taught using creative approaches [mental imagery] to enhance performance proficiency in a limited time with better feelings and interest
