There are few studies that focus on the interpersonal aspect of everyday ethical conflicts. Conceptual frameworks for research into ethical decision making in the health care system are mainly based on an ethic in which objectivity and principle-based thinking is emphasized, leaving the experience of concrete moral conflicts relatively unexplored. The aim of this paper is to analyze the dimensions of "moral sensing," a concept identified in an earlier grounded theory study of psychiatric nursing. Four dimensions of the concept of moral sensing, i.e., feeling, intuition, benevolence and genuineness, were synthesized by reviewing the works of past and contemporary philosophers. The analysis of moral sensing and its dimensions is exemplified by actual nurse-patient encounters in psychiatric nursing practice.
