However, they encounter ethical uncertainties and inconsistencies in practices related to patient consent and procedures for accessing, storing, and sharing patient data. Students reported digital ethics violations at both individual and peer levels, attributing these breaches to educational pressures, insufficient digital ethics training, reliance on personal devices, and the influence of clinical role models. The results underscore the importance of education, institutional regulations, and ethical role modelling in reinforcing digital ethics.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study identifies a notable discrepancy between nursing students\u2019 awareness of digital ethics and their experiences in clinical practice.
