和谐是日本人最基本的价值观之一。它源于儒家思想，包括一种心态、一种行动过程和行动的结果。本文利用研究数据，并讨论了日本护士的和谐的看法，反映在他们的日常实践。据报道，这些护士最重要的美德是礼貌和尊重他人。据称，护士和谐实践的结果使患者受益，并为所有人创造了和平、和谐的关系。由于和谐与互动地点之间的独特联系，理想的“工作场所和谐”威胁到了一些护士的专业决策。这些护士由于表面上的一致而混淆了和谐与顺从。日本的资历制度可能是造成这一问题的一个主要因素。强烈要求进行包含日本文化中传统价值观和观念的伦理教育。
Harmony is one of the most fundamental Japanese values. It is derived from Confucianism and encompasses a state of mind, an action process and outcomes of the action. This article draws on research data and discusses Japanese nurses' perceptions of harmony as reflected in their everyday practice. The most important virtues for these nurses were reported as politeness and respect for other persons. The outcome from the nurses' harmonious practice, it is claimed, benefited patients and created peaceful, harmonious relationships for all. Because of the unique link between harmony and the location of interaction, the ideal 'workplace harmony' threatened some nurses' professional decision making. These nurses confused harmony with conformity by superficial agreement. The Japanese seniority system could be a major factor contributing to this problem. Ethics education that includes traditional values and concepts in Japanese culture is strongly urged.
