    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: With developing nursing ethics education, the traditional methods of teaching could not meet the learning needs of undergraduates. Improving ethical decision-making to undergraduates is necessary toward promoting nursing ethics. OBJECTIVE: The aim of study is to compare the effect of inquiry-oriented teaching and lecture-based approach on nursing ethics education for undergraduates. DESIGN: A quasi-experimental study was conducted for undergraduate nursing students. SETTINGS: Two nursing schools participated in the study in mainland China. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 97 undergraduate nursing students participated in the study. METHODS: The study adopted a quasi-experimental design. RESULTS: The inquiry-oriented teaching group was significantly higher on average scoring than the lecture-based group after intervention in 2 aspects including: professional relationship (P = 0.015) and ethical decision making (P = 0.021). Contrarily, this study also showed that in the lecture-based group the score of foundational theories of nursing ethics was higher than Inquiry-oriented group (P = 0.038). A statistically significant difference was not found between the two groups in 3 scenarios: ethics related to nursing practice, ethics related to nursing research and necessity of learning nursing ethics. CONCLUSION: Combination of inquiry-oriented teaching and lecture-based approach is suggested as part of design for curriculum of nursing ethics education.
