The study evaluated on 174 nurses working in general hospital in D and S Province. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, Multiple regression. As a result, the level of perceived ethical confidence was moderate score. There were positive correlations between perceived ethical confidence and character and nursing professional value and moral sensitivity. The significant factors influencing the perceived ethical confidence were character, nursing professional value, moral sensitivity, which explained 25% of variance in perceived ethical confidence.

본 연구의 목적은 간호사들의 윤리적의사결정 자신감, 인성, 간호전문직관 및 도덕적 민감성 정도를 분석하고, 윤리적의사결정 자신감에 영향을 미치는 요인을 융합적으로 파악하는 것이다. 연구대상은 D, S시 소재 종합병원에 근무하는 간호사 174명으로, 연구 자료는 기술통계, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation and Multiple regression을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과, 간호사들의 윤리적의사결정 자신감 정도는 중간정도이었으며, 인성, 간호전문직관, 도덕적 민감성과 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 윤리적의사결정 자신감에 영향을 주는 요인은 인성(${\beta}=.350$, p<.001), 간호전문직관(${\beta}=.172$, p<.001), 도덕적 민감성(${\beta}=.134$, p<.001)임을 확인하였고, 이들의 설명력은 25%이었다. 따라서 간호사의 윤리적의사결정 자신감 향상을 위해서 임상현장에서 인성, 간호전문직관 및 도덕적 민감성 향상을 위한 교육프로그램 개발이 필요하다.
