“…The basic principles—respect for patient autonomy, beneficence (benefit to others), non‐maleficence (no harm to others), and justice (fair distribution of scarce resources; Beauchamp & Childress, 2019)—remain dominant in medical ethics, which makes up the integrity that health care professionals espouse (Preshaw et al., 2016). The strike participants vindicated these values mainly to prevent harm (West, 2019) to the community and to achieve well‐being for all the people of Hong Kong. Although some commentators undermined them with accusations such as promoting “personal ideologies” (Leung et al., 2020) or political agendas, experience gained from the health care personnel of other regions/countries during the pandemic has shown in fact that the interests of individual patients becomes secondary to that of society as a whole for the sake of the greater good (Harkin, 2020); that is, concerns for the common good that focuses on public interests (Figar & Đorđević, 2016).…”

Urging the government to exercise a complete border closure to inhibit the spread of the novel coronavirus from Mainland China, about 8,000 health care workers participated in a 5-day strike in early February 2020 in Hong Kong. Despite gaining 61% support from the public, dissenters criticised that the participants violated professional ethics and abandoned their accountabilities, which led to moral distress.However, the participants were guided by the four fundamental medical principles (autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice) for public interest and health equity. Their concerns for occupational safety should not be ignored to maintain an effective health care system. In short, the strike adopted a bottom-up initiative and adhered to a public-centered perspective and community-driven ethical behaviors, through which the participants deliberated over professionalism, humanism and the imminence of public health, and the balance between them. Strikers showed care and concern for the safety of the community, sustainability of the health care system, and well-being of all people in Hong Kong.

“…Research ethics is a branch of professional ethics that addresses research‐directing ethical principles 17 . Ethical considerations should be observed in research centers because an important ethical goal of the research is to take a step for the improvement of the life of individuals and the community since research requires the researcher's commitment to high ethical and humane principles and values 16,23 . Research ethics is an important factor for preventing potential fraud in scientific settings 17 .…”

“…All four types of research are necessary for nursing science and profession 15 . The FSS in nursing research aims to suggest a harmonic perspective into surveying nursing research from the view of the four elements (researcher, research subject, research process, and research product) 16,17 with the symphonized nursing thinking, language, and deeds. Here, intellectuality means focusing on the extent of beneficence and applicability of the research findings from the four‐season symphonic perspective.…”

Background The Four‐Season‐Symphony of intellectuality, spirituality, ethics, and esthetics (FSS: I SEA) in nursing research is a new concept that has not been addressed in previous nursing theories and studies. Aim This study was conducted to clarify the concept of the FSS: I SEA in nursing research. Design Wilson's method of concept analysis was used. Data Source Empirical and conceptual literature. Review Method This study has been conducted based on Wilson's 11‐step approach by searching keywords with Symphony, Rationality, Intellectuality, Spirituality, Ethics, Esthetics, and Nursing research in databases including Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, Sid, Oxford Dictionary, Dehkhoda Dictionary, and nursing theory textbook. Results and Conclusion Richness and elegance of the symphony in nursing research cannot be achieved by a single‐tool benchmark; rather, a more integrated assessment can be achieved with the use of a tool combining different intellectuality, spirituality, ethics, and esthetics tools. This symphony contains a philosophical and deep understanding of the meanings of researcher, research problem, research process, and symphonic product. Through identifying the facilitators and barriers of this concept, nursing researchers, professors, and practitioners will be able to design and implement their research activities on FSS basis to pave the way for the continued transcendence of comprehensive nursing care.

Aim:The aim was to validate the Professional Quality of Life Scale. Design: A cross-sectional study. Methods: The data were collected using the Professional Quality of Life Scale (ProQoL) from February to April 2019 among nurses in Slovenia and Croatia. Results: The results indicate that the original version of the scale was not suitable for this sample. Thus, the scale was revised to improve the model fit. The final model showed a good fit (TLI = 0.886; CFI = 0.915; RMSEA = 0.107). It is comprised of eleven items, three belonging to the compassion satisfaction subscale, four to the burnout subscale, and four to the secondary traumatic stress subscale. Conclusion: Although the ProQoL was revised to show a good fit to data, it is an adequate questionnaire for assessing the professional quality of life of nurses. Effective interventions can be proposed to improve the nurses' professional quality of life.
