The problem of the formation of the ethical regulators of the physician professional activities

We conducted a study on the value orientations of doctors on the undergraduate stage to assess the formation of ethical regulators of the professional activities of doctors. Conducted a comparative analysis of value motivations of doctors and medical students revealed underdevelopment moral qualities of empathy considered undergraduate professional group on stage. According to our data, only 46,3 % of the surveyed medical students have expressed an altruistic orientation and 37,3 % of the study - the selfish orientation (p > 0,05). At the same time, similar studies on model groups of doctors have shown that the majority of physicians (69,2 % of physicians and 83,3 % of surgeons) has altruistic orientation (p < 0,05). Orientation selfishness marked by no more than 15,7 % of physicians. The obtained results reflect the overall negative trend in the orientation of the youth society and can be predictive of future decline in the importance of ethical principles of medical practice.
