Abstract

This study is a descriptive survey research aimed at exploring the relationship between nursing students' sense of calling, nursing professionalism, and ethical sensitivity. Data collection took place from September 1, 2022, to October 31, 2022, and data were collected using the IBM SPSS/WIN 26.0 program. The findings of this study indicated a positive correlation between a sense of calling and professional commitment (r=.43, p<.001), as well as a positive correlation between a sense of calling and ethical sensitivity (r=.38, p< .001). Furthermore, ethical sensitivity was found to have a positive correlation with professional commitment (r=.59, p<.001). Mediation analysis revealed that in the relationship between nursing students' sense of calling and professional commitment, ethical sensitivity acted as a complete mediator, explaining 36% of the variance. Therefore, ethical sensitivity emerges as a crucial variable influencing nursing students' professional commitment, highlighting the necessity for specific strategies to enhance it.

본 연구는 간호대학생의 소명의식, 간호전문직관과 윤리적 민감성의 관계를 파악하고자 시도된 서술적 조사연구이다. 자료수집은 2022년 9월 1일부터 2022년 10월 31일까지였으며, 자료수집은 IBM SPSS/WIN 26.0 프로그램을 사용하였다. 본 연구결과 소명의식은 간호전문직관(r=.43, p<.001), 윤리적 민감성(r=.38, p<.001)과 양의 상관관계가 있었고, 윤리적 민감성은 간호전문직관(r=.59, p<.001)과 양의 상관관계가 있었다. 매개효과 검증 결과 간호대학생의 소명의식과 간호전문직과의 관계에서 윤리적 민감성은 완전 매개변수임이 확인되었고, 설명력은 36%였다. 따라서 윤리적 민감성은 간호대학생의 간호전문직관에 영향을 미치는 중요한 변수이며, 이를 향상시킬 수 있는 구체적인 방안이 마련되어야 한다.
