Summary

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of a higher education programme based on professional ethics in physiotherapy students.

A simple-blind clinical trial was performed. A three-months program based in professional ethics was carried out.

The investigators compared a control group (traditonal lectures) with an intervention group (syllabus, activities, face to face techniques). Students´ attitudes, knowledge, professional values, and opinions towards professional ethics were evaluated before and after the programme, in both groups. All participants were informed about the study and procedures, and provided written informed consent.
