Overview

In current nursing education programs, professional values education mostly remains at a theoretical level; students' internalization of these values and reflection of them in their behavior is limited. Ahilik is a historical system based on ethical principles, professional responsibility, and a sense of service to society. The aim of this study is to experimentally evaluate the effect of Ahilik-based education on the professional values of nursing students. Hypotheses H0: There is no significant difference between the professional values of nursing students who receive Ahilik education and those who do not. H1: The professional values of nursing students who receive Ahilik education are significantly different from those who do not.
