Debriefing as a reflecting phase can be a kernel of simulation-based learning. VAD provides the improvement in both technical and nontechnical skills, and particularly promotes analytical thinking through self-reflection. The predominant feature of this study was to extract subjectivity toward VAD from undergraduate nursing students using Q methodology. Three factors and the consequential individual subjective attitude were manifest in some important issues regarding VAD. The study findings highlight the qualities or competency of instructors involved in debriefing, the importance of realistic scenarios, installation of good equipment for videotaping, and students' preference for debriefing including VAD. This study also emphasizes that VAD is always not to positively influence on students' learning outcomes. Understanding and respecting students' attitude toward VAD, and reflecting their attitudes in the method of debriefing can be strategies for positive learning outcomes. Careful consideration of students' learning styles and maintaining proficient instructors can be key suggestions in this study for positively reinforcing students' attitude toward VAD, and development of the potential of VAD.
