Moral sensitivity is one criterion for competent professional ethics. This sensitivity can be reinforced by specific educational practices. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of professional ethics-based education on the ethical sensitivity of health information technology students.
This quasi-experimental pre-post study was conducted in 2022 with 49 students. A researcher-created questionnaire based on Lutzen was used for data collection. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired t-tests.
Students' moral sensitivity score was 7.4 ± 0.7 before and 7.6 ± 0.8 after, a significant increase in post scores (P=0.031). The moral sensitivity score of students who had not previously received professional ethics training was statistically significantly increased by case-based learning.
The professional ethics-based teaching method was effective in increasing the moral sensitivity of health information technology students, so it is recommended to use this method of teaching medical ethics courses.
道德敏感性是专业职业道德能力的一项标准。这种敏感性可通过特定的教育实践得到强化。本研究的目的是调查基于职业道德的教育对健康信息技术专业学生道德敏感性的影响。
这项准实验性前后测研究于2022年对49名学生进行。使用基于卢岑编制的由研究人员创建的问卷进行数据收集。数据采用描述性统计和配对t检验进行分析。
学生的道德敏感性得分在之前为7.4±0.7,之后为7.6±0.8,后测得分显著提高(P=0.031)。以前未接受过职业道德培训的学生的道德敏感性得分通过基于案例的学习在统计学上显著提高。
基于职业道德的教学方法在提高健康信息技术专业学生的道德敏感性方面是有效的,因此建议采用这种方法来教授医学伦理课程。
