Data were collected from September 1 to 11, 2015 and were analyzed using independent t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe? test, Pearson’s correlation coefficients, and hierarchical multiple regression with SPSS 22.0.
Results : Educational level, attitude on organ transplantation in brain death, and meaning of life were significant variables predicting the level of nursing ethical value, accounting for 82.6% of the variability.
