Özet

Conscience is a force capable of making judgments about one's own moral values during individual behaviour. Conscience in nursing is a concept that is perceived as authority and an inner voice, and it positively affects nursing care. Today, according to many research results, conscience is an indicator of professionalism that affects our personal and professional lives. This research was carried out to determine the effect of nurses' perceptions of conscience on job satisfaction and care behaviours. A cross-sectional study was performed in a training and research hospital. The sample size of 338 nurses was determined by power analysis, and the participants were selected using a simple random sampling method. The data were collected between June and November 2020. A Personal Information Form, the Conscience Perception Scale (CPS), the Nurse Job Satisfaction Scale (NJSS) and the Caring Behaviours Scale-30 (CBS-30) were used to collect the data. The nurses obtained a score of 63.36 +/- 12.13 on the CPS, indicating a high level of conscience perception; a total of 3.41 +/- 0.69 points on the NJSS, revealing a high level of job satisfaction; and a total of 150.42 +/- 21.22 points on the CBS-30, implying that care perceptions were found to be high. It was determined that the nurses' perceptions of conscience had an effect on their job satisfaction and care behaviours (R = 0.398, Adjusted R2 = 0.158, p = 0.000). The nurses who participated in the study had a high perception of conscience, which positively affected their job satisfaction and care behaviours.
