Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the attitudes of medical and pharmacy faculty students toward ethical principles. This cross-sectional and descriptive study was carried out at the University of Health Sciences between January and March 2023. Turkish version of the 'Scale for Attitudes of Ethical Principles' was directed to the first and last-year students of Health Sciences University Hamidiye Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy via Google forms. As the score obtained from the scale increases (35-175), it is revealed that the awareness of the participant is high [1]. The statistical analysis is performed by SPSS program. Cronbach Alpha internal consistency coefficient of the scale was calculated as 0.79. A total of 253 students (pharmacy n= 123, medicine n= 130) were included in our study. The difference between the total scale scores of the first and last year students in the medical and pharmacy faculties [(33.28 vs. 167.42), (45.36 vs. 150.24)] was found to be statistically significant (p<0.0001). We think it would be beneficial to start courses on ethical principles at an earlier stage of the education process in all faculties, those in health field, and to include them more in the education program. Keywords: Pharmacy, Medicine, Ethical Principles
