Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of good death recognition, self-esteem, attitude toward withdrawal of life-sustaining treatmenton the consciousness of biomedical ethics in nursing students. Data were collected from 154 nursing students in B city and analyzed by t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple regression using SPSS/WIN 22.0. The degree of consciousness of biomedical ethics in nursing students was 2.87±0.26. There were significant differences in consciousness of biomedical ethics with respect to religion(t=-2.90, p=.004). There was positive correlation between consciousness of biomedical ethics and good death recognition(r=.27, p=.001), self-esteem(r=.36, p<.001), negative correlation between consciousness of biomedical ethics and attitude toward withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment(r=-.29, p<.001). The factors affecting consciousness of biomedical ethics of the study subjects were good death recognition(β=.26, p<.001), self-esteem(β=.29, p<.001), attitude toward withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment(β=-.30, p<.001), religion(β=-.20, p=.004), with an explanatory power of 28.7%. Through this research requires the fellow study to determine the factors affecting consciousness of biomedical ethics of nursing students.

본 연구는 간호대학생을 대상으로 좋은 죽음 인식, 자아존중감, 연명치료 중단에 대한 태도가 생명의료윤리 의식에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위해 시도되었다. 연구참여자는 B시의 간호대학생 154명을 대상으로 하였다. 자료분석은 SPSS 22.0 프로그램을 이용하여 실수, 백분율, 평균, 표준편차, t-test, ANOVA, 피어슨 상관계수, 다중회귀분석으로 분석하였다. 대상자의 생명의료윤리 의식은 2.87±0.26점이었고, 일반적 특성에 따른 생명의료윤리 의식의 차이를 분석한 결과 종교(t=-2.90, p=.004)에서 유의한 차이를 나타냈다. 연구대상자의 생명의료윤리 의식은 좋은 죽음 인식(r=.27, p=.001), 자아존중감(r=.36, p<.001)과는 정적상관관계를, 연명치료 중단에 대한 태도(r=-.27, p<.001)와는 부적상관관계를 나타냈다. 대상자의 생명의료윤리 의식에 영향을 미치는 요인은 좋은 죽음 인식(β=.26, p<.001), 자아존중감(β=.29, p<.001), 연명치료 중단에 대한 태도(β=-.30, p<.001), 종교(β=.20, p=.004)로 나타났고, 설명력은 28.7%로 나타났다. 본 연구결과를 통하여 간호대학생을 대상으로 생명의료윤리 의식에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하기 위한 반복연구가 필요하다.
