Abstract

Background: The study’s aim is to investigate future doctors’, who are at the beginning of their medical education, perceptions on the field of medical ethics and expectations for the medical ethics education. Methods: A questionnaire was applied to the first-year students, prior to the first professional values and ethics lecture, which included questions about demographic characteristics, students’ perceptions on ethics and moral concepts, the prior education they received in ethics, their opinions on the presence of ethical issues in health care area and the necessity of medical ethics education in these particular issues, medical ethics education’s necessity in medical education and on the ethics education they will be receiving. The data were evaluated by using descriptive analysis. Results: 63.8% of students stated that they know ethics concept, 53.5% stated that there is a difference between ethics and morals, 87.7% stated that they had no prior teaching on ethics, 90% stated that medical ethics education was necessary in medical education, 91.5% stated that there are ethical issues in the health care area. Most preferred teaching methods were video/movies, small group studies, inclusion of ethics components in PBL scenarios, lectures, respectively; 82.3% stated that there is no need for exams in ethics education. Conclusion: Although the majority of the students stated that they were not previously trained in issues related to ethics, they pointed out to the presence of ethical problems in health care in our country and emphasized the necessity of ethics teaching in medical education pertaining to this area. The findings have contributed to the improvement of the professional values and ethics program in school; educational methods like small group studies, video/movies have been increased, assignments related to novels, movies and ethical issues have been added.

Özet

Amaç: Çalışmanın amacı tıp eğitimlerinin başlangıcında olan hekim adaylarının, tıbbi etik alanına ilişkin algılarının ve eğitime yönelik beklentilerinin değerlendirilmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Birinci sınıf öğrencilerine, ilk Mesleksel Değerler ve Etik dersinde, demografik özellikleri, etik ve ahlak kavramına ilişkin algıları, bugüne dek etik ile ilgili aldıkları eğitim, sağlık alanındaki etik konulardaki sorunlar ve bu konulardaki eğitim gereksinimi, tıp eğitimi kapsamında tıbbi etik eğitiminin gerekliliği ve verilecek etik eğitimine ilişkin görüşleri ile ilgili soruları içeren bir anket uygulanmıştır. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde tanımlayıcı istatistiksel analizler kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Öğrencilerin %63.8’i etik kavramını bildiğini, %53.5’i “etik ile ahlak” kavramları arasında fark olduğunu, %87.7’si bugüne dek etik konusunda herhangi bir eğitim almadığını, %90.0’ı tıp eğitimi kapsamında tıbbi etik eğitiminin gerekli olduğunu, %91.5’i sağlık alanında etik sorunlar olduğunu düşündüklerini belirtmişlerdir. Öğrenciler etik eğitiminde yöntem olarak sırasıyla video/film gösterimi, küçük grup çalışması, PDÖ senaryoları kapsamında etik öğelerin yer almasını ve sunumu tercih etmişler, % 82.3’ü tıbbi etik eğitiminde sınava gerek olmadığını belirtmiştir. Sonuç: Öğrencilerin çoğunluğu bugüne dek etik konulara ilişkin eğitim almadıklarını ifade etmelerine karşın, ülkemizde sağlık hizmetleri alanında etik sorunların varlığına işaret etmiş ve tıp eğitimi kapsamında bu alanlarda etik eğitiminin verilmesi gerektiğini belirtmişlerdir. Elde edilen veriler Fakülte’deki Mesleksel Değerler ve Etik eğitiminin geliştirilmesine katkıda bulunmuş; eğitim sürecinde küçük grup çalışmaları, video/film gösterimleri gibi uygulamaların ağırlığı artırılmış, kitaplar, filmler ve etik konularla ilgili ödevler eklenmiştir.
