This study was performed to evaluate the moral judgments (P(%) and 4stage) of nursing and nonnursing student using a DIT test. The data were collected through self-reported questionnaires from 483 college students and measured by the Korean version of the Defining Issues Test (KDIT). The results were as follows. The mean P(%) scores of nursing and non-nursing student were 43.83(SD=15.70) and 38.27(SD=15.18) respectively. The difference between the scores for the two groups was statistically significant, as was the difference between the P(%) scores for males and females. The mean stage 4 scores for nursing and non-nursing students were 20.06(SD=11.97) and 18.83(SD=10.63) respectively. There were significant differences in the stage 4 scores for gender (F=3.18, p=.049), nursing ethics learning experience (t=4.59, p=.025), and number of siblings (t=5.17, p=.026). While the P(%) score for third-year students was lower than that for first-and second-year students, third-year students had the highest stage 4 score. The moral judgment score of third-year students is thought to be affected by clinical nurses during their practical training. The results of this study indicate a need for further longitudinal studies to measure the moral judgments of nursing students.
