Abstract
Self-defence is everyone’s right. Based on this right, one can defend himself against any eminent threat, even if it cause the predator’s death. This ethical principle is an applicable principle in ethics in war. However, the principle of self-defence has been applied in other situation such as justification of abortion if mother’s life is threatened by her fetus. Judith Thompson is a philosopher who defend abortion by applying this principle, in her book, “ A Defence of Abortion” Thompson categorized pregnancy into two types, wanted and unwanted pregnancy, argues that abortion is justified in wanted pregnancy if mother’s life is endanger. She also discusses the involvement of a third party in performing abortion. However, her argument has been criticised by her proponents as well as opponent. This article examines the principle of self-defence and its application in justifying abortion as well as the involvement of a third party in Thompson’s perspective.

Abstract
Moral sensitivity is the first step in making a moral decision and taking a moral judgment. An effort to promote nurses' moral sensitivity, education of ethical concepts, and using appropriate approaches to teaching ethics is still under discussion. Thus, this study was conducted to determine the effect of virtual teaching of ethical principles through narrative method on the ethical sensitivity of critical care nurses. In this quasi-experimental study, 60 critical care nurses were studied in two groups of test and control in 2 hospitals. The experimental group was taught ethical principles through virtual narrative method. Demographic information and Latezen moral sensitivity questionnaire were completed by nurses on three occasions (before, immediately after and two months after virtual education). Data were analyzed by SPSS 20 software. Results showed that the mean and standard deviation of nurses' moral sensitivity were 61.53 ± 9.24 before intervention and (60.60 ± 7.76 for the control group, and the association was not statistically significant (p> 0.05). However, there was a significant difference between the experimental group (77.50 ± 6.05) and the control group (60.83 ± 8.07 in the first post-test. In addition, there was a significant difference between the experimental and control groups (p <0.05) in the second post-test. Repeated measure analysis showed a significant difference between the ethical sensitivity scores in the experimental group, but no significant difference in the control group. According to the findings, the nurses' moral sensitivity was moderate at the beginning of the study, but after the intervention, the test group was at a high level and the control group was still at a moderate level. Thus, it is necessary to motivate nurses for recording and sharing their ethical challenges. Accordingly, they can promote their own ethical performance. Furthermore, their narratives can be used for education of other nurses and students of nursing.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of character education on wisdom, academic hope, and prosocial behavior among university students. The study employed a quasi-experimental design with a post-test and a control group. Participants included two groups of students from Shiraz University who were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. The experimental group participated in a twelve-session program focused on developing etiquette-based professional conduct, and at the end, both groups completed the questionnaires on wisdom, academic hope, and prosocial behavior. The validity and reliability of these instruments for use in Iranian culture have been found to be satisfactory. The results of multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) revealed that etiquette-based character education had a significant effect on all three variables of wisdom, academic hope, and prosocial behavior. A key implication of these findings is the importance of paying attention to character education in educational settings.
