Introduction: The study aimed to assess the impact of Case-based Learning on nursing students' sensitivity and moral courage.
Method: The present study is semi-experimental with non-equivalent control group. The research population is nursing students in Medical Sciences who entered the study by census (61 people). The educational program was designed, and the principal learning method was based on case-based learning (CBL). Latzen's ethical sensitivity questionnaire was used to check the level of moral sensitivity, and Sekerka's questionnaire was used to determine the level of moral courage. The students completed the questionnaires before and twice after the educational interventions. The data were analyzed with descriptive and analytical tests (Pearson RM-ANOVA).
Results: The number of 61 students participated in the present study. The 29 people were in the intervention group and 32 in the control group. The average age of the participants was 18.41 ± 0.49. The study results showed that the moral sensitivity scores of the students in the intervention and control groups changed significantly over time (one week and three months after the intervention) compared to before the intervention (P = 0.02). Regarding moral courage scores, no significant change was reported between the intervention and control groups before, one week, and three months after the intervention (P = 0.82).
Conclusion: The present results showed that the educational intervention using the case-based learning method improved the student's moral sensitivity and maintained it over time. However, improvement in moral courage over time has not been reported significantly.
