To investigate the moral development of pharmacy students over their first academic year of study at a university in the United Kingdom.
Pharmacy students completed Defining Issues Test (DIT) at the start of their first year (phase 1) and again at the end of their first year (phase 2) of the program.
Pharmacy students (N=116) had significantly higher moral reasoning at the beginning of their first year than by the end of it. Scores differed by students' gender and age; however, these findings differed between phase 1 and phase 2.
First-year pharmacy students in the United Kingdom scored lower on moral reasoning than did pharmacy students in the United States and Canada.

药学专业学生在课程第一年开始时(阶段1)和第一年结束时(阶段2)分别完成了界定问题测试(DIT)。
药学专业学生(N = 116)在第一年开始时的道德推理能力显著高于第一年结束时。分数因学生的性别和年龄而异;然而,这些结果在阶段1和阶段2之间有所不同。
英国一年级药学专业学生的道德推理得分低于美国和加拿大的药学专业学生。
