PALOMER, Leonor y LOPEZ, Rodrigo. Measurement about the ethical and moral values taught in the career of dentistry at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, on teacher appreciation. FEM (Ed. impresa) [online]. 2016, vol.19, n.2, pp.77-84. ISSN 2014-9840.
Introduction. University education must provide competent citizens in the service of society. The moral dimension of teaching in higher education is intrinsic to its work. Aim. To perform a quantitative and descriptive study to help determine the coherence in the undergraduate training at the Dentistry School in Pontificia Universidad Católica (PUC) between the established values and those effectively recognized by the students, from the point of the view of the school's clinical teaching staff. Subjects and methods. The fundamental values in the formation of PUC dentist were revised. Then, using these materials a structured survey was constructed and applied to the school's 68 clinical teachers. Of those, 46 answered the survey (68%) stating whether they acknowledged the indicated values and whether they had noticed any situations in which any value was infringed by their students. Results. It was revealed that the course programs include few value-related goals, that the ethics and moral values less observed where the respect to the environment and the responsibility and the most observed values were justice and the respect of others. The most infringements to ethics and moral values were yielded by student-patient relationship situations. Conclusion. The obtained material provided insight about the current situation in the teaching of values in the school of Dentistry in PUC and will assist for further research regarding this topic, for correction and implementation in educational programs.
