摘要
This study aims to understand the meaning of human dignity among adults in Korea. A qualitative study design is utilized. Data were collected with non-structured questions in a sample of 74 Korean adults and analyzed with qualitative content analysis. There were 4 categories, 31 themes and 106 theme clusters classified. The four categories that emerged were: fullness of dignity; loss of dignity; reinforcement of dignity; and enfeeblement of dignity. The results of this study may contribute to healthcare professionals' understanding of Korean adults' human dignity.
