Abstract

<p>〔Objective〕This study aimed to examine the nursing university seniors reactions to the nursing faculty’s ethical behavior when performing their duties as teachers.</p><p>〔Method〕Participants were 17 nursing students in their senior year in seven university nursing departments. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, and a content analysis was done for a questionnaire survey.</p><p>〔Results〕Three core categories were detected : “students did not feel that the teachers acknowledged their existence”; “students felt pressure from the teachers during the lectures”; and “teachers behave as if their own values are the most important”.</p><p>〔Discussion〕 When compared to a previous study done on the teacher’s ethical standards, the student’s recognition of the right of students to learn and the human rights of students were only noted in the present study. Moreover, the overall main core concept was“lack of respect for the other”．</p><p>　“Respect for the other” is an important concept for educators and is a core concept in pedagogy. For the nursing faculty, there are two areas of ethics to be implemented: the “ethics of teaching” and the “ethics of nursing”. The results of this study showed that the nursing faculties were lacking in the “ethics of teaching”. Nursing faculties need to include the ethics of teaching and to teach the two forms of ethics in a well-balanced manner.</p>
