Overview

Descriptive correlation study examines self-compassion's role in professional values and care behaviors in intensive care nurses, suggesting pathways for improved care.

Key Points

  • To examine how professional values relate to self-compassion and caring behaviors in intensive care nurses. The study also assesses the mediating role of self-compassion in this relationship.
  • Conducted a descriptive and correlational study in intensive care units from November 2025 to February 2026.
  • Data collected from 134 nurses using established scales: Nurses' Professional Values Scale, Short Form Self-Compassion Scale, and Caring Behaviors Inventory.
  • Conducted descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, hierarchical regression, and mediation analysis using PROCESS Macro.
  • Professional values (mean=149.91) and caring behaviors (mean=167.32) were high, while self-compassion (mean=36.66) was moderate.
  • Positive correlations found among professional values, self-compassion, and caring behaviors (p < 0.01).
  • Self-compassion partially mediated the relationship between professional values and caring behaviors (indirect effect = 0.129; 95% CI: 0.036-0.223).
