Abstract

|
|
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship among ethical values, patients’ health information protection awareness and practice.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional, correlational study. Participants were 186 nursing college students who had experienced clinical practice. They were administered a structured questionnaire regarding demographic characteristics, an ethical value scale, and a patients’ health information protection awareness and practice scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson's correlation coefficients using SPSS 25.0.
Results: The mean scores on ethical value, patients’ health information protection awareness, and patients’ health information protection practice were 3.34±1.01, 4.35±0.49, and 4.28±0.68, respectively. Patients’ health information protection awareness was significantly positively correlated with practice (r=.42, p＜.001). Simple regression analysis revealed that patients’health information protection awareness was responsible for 17.6% of the total variance in patients’ health information protection practice.
Conclusion: Based on these results, it is necessary to identify the various predictors of patients’ health information protection practice and to develop an effective education program to improve patients’ health information protection awareness.
