Abstract

Purpose: This study identifies the relationships between the perception of nursing ethics and biomedical ethics in Korean nursing students. Methods: A total of 311 participants with a mean of 20.93 years were recruited using a convenient sampling method. Data were collected using a self-reported questionnaire from May 2 to May 16, 2016. Results: Biomedical ethics were significantly different according to education of ethics. Nursing ethics among nursing students were significantly different according to gender and a view of the occupation. Positive correlations were found between the perception of biomedical ethics and nursing ethics. The perception of biomedical ethics was a significant predictor of nursing ethics with an explanatory power of 16.0% of the variance. Conclusion: The findings of this study may provide a basic data to understand the biomedical ethics among Korean nursing students.
