Empiric Ethics Views in Mental Health and Psychiatric Care

Abstract

The meaning of empirical knowledge in ethics has been debated from the past. Empirical ethics, which is a combination of social science and normative ethics, generally means social science research. Empirical ethics, which is also defined as an integrated form of ethical analysis and empirical research, enriches the discussions by clarifying the dilemmas faced by nurses in care services offered to individuals with mental health problems. In this context, studies combined with empirical ethics in mental health and psychiatric care are quite insufficient. In this article, it is aimed to define empirical ethics and discuss it in Turkey studies that can be defined as empirical ethical research conducted in the fields of psychiatric care.

Ruh Sağlığı ve Psikiyatrik Bakımda Ampirik Etik Görünümleri

Abstract

Etik biliminde ampirik bilginin anlamı geçmişten beri tartışılır. Sosyal bilimler ve normatif etiğin bir kombinasyonu olan ampirik etik genel anlamda sosyal bilim araştırması anlamına gelir. Etik analiz ve ampirik araştırmaların bütünleşmiş biçimi olarak da tanımlanan ampirik etik, ruhsal sorunlu bireylere sunulan bakım hizmetlerinde hemşirenin karşılaştığı çözülmesi zor görünen ikilemlere açıklık getirip tartışmaları zenginleştirir. Ruh sağlığı ve psikiyatrik bakımda bu bağlamda ampirik etikle birleşen araştırmalar oldukça yetersizdir. Bu makalede ampirik etiğin tanımlanması ve psikiyatrik bakım hizmetleri sunulan alanlarında gerçekleştirilmiş ampirik etik araştırması olarak tanımlanabilecek araştırmalarda tartışılması amaçlanmıştır.
