Over 50% of the graduates indicated that empathy is most important for patient satisfaction. 3. "One's own morality" indicated the highest percentage and "selfrespect of being professional" and "the law followed". Personal morality is the largest factor determining professional behavior. Professionalism and legal regulations are also of significant influence. 4. Over 90 percent of those surveyed are dissatisfied with the current system. 5. A majority said that they engaged in some self-study of medical ethics. 6. Most graduates indicated that medical ethics should be included in the curriculum, however not as a separate course.
