本研究描述了传统护理学士课程和护理硕士课程的护理学生的道德敏感性水平。本研究采用改良护生道德敏感度问卷，对某护理学院250名大三、大四、研究生进行问卷调查。无法根据该工具得出结论。道德范畴分析显示，学生排名类别结构的道德意义最高和人际关系取向第二。道德问题排名最高的是诚实，第二是尊重病人，第三是了解病人情况的责任。老年人更经常地同意关注病人安全的必要性。随着学生通过学士学位课程的进展，并进入研究生课程，他们的观点越来越认识到道德问题的背景。结果表明，需要进一步开发一种工具来衡量道德敏感性，利用学生的理解和道德问题的看法。
This study describes the level of moral sensitivity among nursing students enrolled in a traditional baccalaureate nursing program and a master's nursing program. Survey responses to the Modified Moral Sensitivity Questionnaire for Student Nurses from 250 junior, senior, and graduate students from one nursing school were analyzed. It was not possible to draw conclusions based on the tool. Moral category analysis showed students ranked the category structuring moral meaning highest and interpersonal orientation second. The moral issue ranking highest was honesty, respect for the patient second, and third was responsibility to know the patient's situation. Seniors agreed more often about the need to focus on patient safety. As students progress through the baccalaureate program and into the graduate program, their perspectives increasingly recognize the contextuality of moral issues. The results show a need to further develop a tool to measure moral sensitivity, using student understanding and perceptions of moral issues.
