Purpose: This paper is to review and analyze development strategy of the East Asian Journal of Business Economics and to look at the previous and current changed publication system and process in order to step up the article quality of EAJBE. Research design, data and methodology: This study grasped the current status and strategy of this journal through literature review. In addition, through the case of EAJBE, the internationalization strategy and research ethics policy of this journal were analyzed. Results: EAJBE clarifies the copyright delegation procedure of the final publication paper. Regarding compliance with research ethics, Editor-in-Chief and Management Editor are completing research ethics training. From 2017 to the present, Editor-in-Chief and Management Editor have completed online ethics training and hold certificates of completion. Conclusions: EAJBE specifies the rules for exclusion of examination by the contributor and the examiner belonging to the same institution and actually operates in this way. Currently, by using the Jams system, the plagiarism verification procedure is operated using the thesis plagiarism prevention system. Finally, in order to strengthen research ethics standards, EAJBE is trying to establish and strengthen a verification system for each paper using the system of the Korea Research Foundation, not the previous foreign paid plagiarism system.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore the trends of research related to ethical topics in Korean nursing students. Methods: A total of 131 articles that were published from 2000 to 2020 were analyzed and summarized according to publishing type, research design, subject, data analysis method, main research topic, research variables and instrument. Results: Most studies were journal articles (93.9%) and their most frequent research design was survey (75.7%). The research subjects covered all grades (35.1%) or they were divided between clinical nursing practicum (29.8%) or not (21.4%). The main research topics were biomedical ethics, ethical values, moral judgment and ethics education. Recently, ethical decision making and practical ability in nursing practice were reported. The instruments for measuring variables were limited and the same tools were used several times. Conclusion: Based on the findings of this study, it is suggested that the selection of various research topics and the application of research methods related to ethics for nursing students will continue in response to rapidly changing social phenomena in the future. In particular, it is necessary that research related to ethical and practical ability as well as ethical attitudes and perceptions of nursing students be actively carried out.
