Abstract
Social networking services (SNS) are valuable tools for disseminating information if used following the rules, but there is a risk of getting into trouble if they are misused. On the other hand, although unqualified, students in the medical field inevitably handle patients' personal information through on-site training. Therefore, each student must be aware of and responsible for information morals. In this study, to clarify effects of risk awareness on information moral behavior, we surveyed nursing students about their behaviors related to information morality and the risks associated with SNS use during on-site training. This survey revealed that the information moral behavior of nursing students in clinical practice is related to their risk awareness associated with SNS use. The results suggest that risk awareness education is effective for nursing students to acquire correct information moral behavior.
