Abstract

This study is a descriptive survey study that attempted to confirm clinical nurses' consciousness of biomedical ethics, moral sensitivity, critical thinking deposition, and nursing ethics code of clinical nurses, as well as to identify the factors influencing the recognition of the nursing code of ethics. The general and ethical characteristics of the subject were calculated by frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation, and the difference for each variable according to the general and ethical characteristics was analyzed using SAS 9.4, independent t-test, and one-way ANOVA, and Scheffé test. The average, standard deviation, and the minimum and maximum values were used for the scores of each variable, and the correlation was determined using the Pearson correlation coefficient. Multiple regression was used to identify the factors that influence the recognition of the nurse's code of ethics. All variables showed significant correlations. Critical thinking deposition (p<.05) was the most influential variable in recognizing the code of ethics for nurses. Critical thinking deposition (p<.001), consciousness in biomedical ethics (p<.001), and moral sensitivity (p<.001) were shown to be affected in order, with 27.4% explaining power. Therefore, it is necessary to develop and apply educational programs to clinical nurses that can improve critical thinking, life and bioethics, and moral sensitivity.

본 연구는 임상간호사의 생명의료 윤리의식, 도덕적 민감성, 비판적 사고성향 및 간호윤리강령인식 정도를 확인하고, 간호사 윤리강령 인식에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하고자 시도된 서술적 조사연구이다. 대상자의 일반적·윤리적특성은 빈도, 백분율, 평균과 표준편차로 산출하였고, 일반적·윤리적 특성에 따른 각 변수별 차이는 SAS 9.4를 이용하여, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA로 분석하였고, 이후 유의한 차이가 발견된 변수는 Scheffé 사후 검정을 이용하여 다중 비교하였다. 각 변수의 점수는 평균과 표준편차, 최소 값과 최대 값을 이용하였고, 변수 별 상관관계는 Pearson correlation coefficient로 분석하였다. 또한 간호사 윤리강령 인식에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하기 위하여 multiple regression으로 분석하였다. 대상자의 일반적·윤리적 특성과 변수 간의 상관관계는 모두 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 마지막으로 간호사 윤리강령 인식에 가장 크게 영향을 미치는 변수는 비판적 사고성향(p<.001)이었고, 다음으로 생명의료 윤리의식(p<.001), 도덕적 민감성(p<.001) 순으로 영향하는 것으로 나타났으며, 이에 대한 설명력은 27.4%이다. 따라서 임상간호사들에게 비판적 사고성향, 생명의료 윤리의식, 도덕적 민감성 등을 향상시킬 수 있는 교육 프로그램을 개발하고, 이를 적용시킴으로써 임상간호사들이 확고한 윤리적 가치관을 가지고 실무에 임할 수 있도록 도움을 주어야 할 것이다.
