简要总结
The study was planned using a randomised controlled experimental design to determine the effectiveness of digital game-based teaching in the development of ethical sensitivity and ethical decision-making processes among nursing students.
详细描述
The most significant contribution this study will make to the literature is its systematic demonstration of the effects of a digital game-based teaching method on the development of ethical sensitivity and ethical decision-making processes in the context of nursing education. Currently, ethics education is mostly conducted using traditional methods, and it is known that students experience difficulties in transferring what they learn in theoretical education to practice. This study makes a unique contribution by demonstrating that digital games can support students' ethical thinking and decision-making skills by offering interactive and experience-based learning opportunities. Furthermore, the study aims to expand the limited literature on the use of digital game-based teaching in ethics education in nursing and to provide evidence-based data on the integration of technological innovations in ethics education. In this respect, the research is of a nature that will strengthen the pedagogical foundations of nursing education and pioneer the development of student-centred and innovative teaching strategies.

研究组 & 干预措施
Experimental group
Both the experimental and comparison groups will receive a reminder lecture from the researcher on ethical principles and codes prior to the applications. Participants in the experimental group will simultaneously play digital games and participate in classroom group work after the reminder lesson.

结局指标
主要结局
Adapted Ethical Sensitivity Scale for Nursing Students
时间窗: 3 times; a week before implementation, a week after implementation, 2 months after implementation
This scale determines the ethical sensitivity levels of nursing students. The 7-point Likert-type scale (1=Strongly disagree, 7=Strongly agree) consists of 30 items and six subscales. Items 8, 24, and 29 are reverse-scored. The total score ranges from 30 to 210; a high score indicates high ethical sensitivity. Item averages are evaluated as 7-5.9 (very important), 5.8-5 (important), 4.9-3.1 (neutral), and below 3.1 (unimportant).
The Ethical Dilemma Test in Nursing
时间窗: 3 times; a week before implementation, a week after implementation, 2 months after implementation
The scale developed under the name 'Nursing Dilemma Test' aims to identify ethical issues in nursing and consists of six scenarios. Each scenario has three sections (A, B, C): Section A (Action): Measures the decision to be made in the face of an ethical dilemma (to act/not to act/to be undecided). Section B (Thinking Style): Determines the 'Principled Thinking' (NPT - importance given to ethical principles) and 'Practical Thinking' (PT - importance given to environmental factors) scores by ranking six statements based on Kohlberg's theory. Section C (Familiarity): Calculates the 'familiarity' score by questioning the case experience. Scoring: NPT Score: ranges from 18 to 66. PT Score: ranges from 6 to 36. Familiarity Score: 6-17 (familiar), 18-30 (unfamiliar). Reliability (Turkish Version): Cronbach's Alpha: NPT (0.59), PT (0.50). Test-Retest: NPT (0.77), PT (0.73).
