Full description

Professional values serve as a guide for actions accepted by professional groups and experts, providing a framework for assessing the values and beliefs that affect professional performance. For the nursing profession to achieve professional status and provide more qualified and effective care to individuals and, consequently, society, it is crucial for nurses to have a strong professional identity and professional values.

The quality of education and training plays a significant role in the development of professional professionalism. The acquisition of a professional identity begins during education and continues throughout a person's career. Therefore, creating awareness of the profession among nursing students during their student years will contribute significantly to the professionalization of the field in the future. It is essential for those who will pursue a nursing career to acquire professional values starting from their student years and to positively develop these values.

Research Question: Does the creative drama method have an effect on nursing students' perceptions of professional values (human dignity, responsibility, initiative, safety, autonomy) compared to the traditional teaching method?
