简要总结
In conclusion, understanding the variables influencing ethical decision-making among nursing students is crucial for developing interventions to minimize moral distress and promoting their ability to cope with ethical issues and dilemmas. While acknowledging the existence of ethical challenges, it is noteworthy that there is a dearth of studies investigating the intricate relationship between ethical sensitivity and the development of professional identity among nursing students. This research aims to fill this gap, advancing our understanding and providing valuable insights for shaping effective educational practices. In this improvement, the research problem is clearly stated: the need to explore the relationship between ethical sensitivity and professional identity among nursing students, with a call for further research to bridge the existing gap.
In light of the identified research gap regarding the correlation between ethical sensitivity and the development of professional identity among nursing students, this study seeks to answer the following question: How does ethical sensitivity influence the formation of professional identity in nursing students within the context of contemporary healthcare environments, characterized by evolving technology and complex health systems?

结局指标
主要结局
Moral Sensitivity Questionnaire
时间窗: through study completion, an average of 6 months
This version was modified by Comrie (2012) to measure the moral sensitivity of student nurses (MMSQSN). According to Comrie, determining the level of ethical sensitivity of student nurses can identify what nursing education programs should do to develop ethical sensitivity. Comrie studied the validity and reliability of the MMSQSN using 250 undergraduate and postgraduate student nurses at a midwestern university. Cronbach's alpha was .64. The MMSQSN is a 7-point Likert type scale that includes 30 items. Statements in the scale are assigned a score between 1 (I completely disagree) and 7 (I completely agree).
