Does education increase ethical sensitivity a semi-experimental study.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Ethics education plays a crucial role in enhancing the ethical sensitivity of nursing students. This study aimed to assess the impact of an ethics course on the ethical sensitivity levels of nursing students. In this study, one-group pretest-posttest semi-experimental design method is used. The mean total score of the Ethics Sensitivity Scale for Nursing Students before education was determined as 4.93 (neutral), while the mean score increased to 5.62 (significant) after education. There was a statistically significant difference between the pre-education and post-education mean scores of students who reported encountering ethical problems during clinical practice. The findings underscore the importance of ethics education in fostering the ethical sensitivity and awareness of nursing students. They also highlight the need for high-quality ethics education that integrates theoretical knowledge with engaging content, real-life case studies, and practical applications to enhance students' learning experiences.
