Özet

Aim: This study aims to determine the nursing students' levels of compassion and ethical sensitivity and reveal the effect of the level of compassion on their ethical sensitivity. Method: A descriptive study was carried out with 328 nursing students studying at a state university. Data were collected through the Personal Information Form, The Compassion Scale, and The Modified Moral Sensitivity Questionnaire for Student Nurses (MMSQSN). Results: The average compassion scale score was 4.14 +/- 0.57 and the students' MMSQSN score average was 4.72 +/- 0.85. A low level of positive correlation was determined between the compassion level of the students and their ethical sensitivity. Students' compassion level was found to be high and their ethical sensitivity was found to be neutral. Conclusion: The increase in the level of compassion positively affects ethical sensitivity. In order to increase the level of compassion of students to increase their ethical sensitivity, practices that improve compassion and ethical sensitivity are required during their education.
