ABSTRACT

This study is to identify correlation of moral sensitivity, nursing professionalism, and moral reasoning of Korea Armed Forces Nursing Academy (KAFNA) cadets. Methods: Data collected using a self-reported questionnaire. Subjects were 215 KAFNA cadets. Data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation coefficient. Results: The mean scores of moral sensitivity, nursing professionalism, and moral reasoning were 5.11, 3.82, 42.70, respectively. Moral sensitivity was significantly different according to hometown. Nursing professionalism was significantly different according to gender, grade, awareness of hospital codes of ethics, or ethical value. Moral reasoning was significantly different according to gender, grade. Moral sensitivity and nursing professionalism had positive correlation. Nursing professionalism and moral reasoning was negatively correlated with the period of nursing clinical practice. Conclusion : This study showed that traditional ethical education was not related to moral sensitivity and reasoning, and nursing clinical practice was a negative factor. To improve moral sensitivity and moral reasoning, various ethics education and exposure to ethical dilemmas are needed.
