This quantitative descriptive study wascarried out to determine the anxiety levels and the moral sensitivity of nurses working in intensive care units.Data were collected with a personal information form, the Beck Anxiety Inventory and Moral SensitivityQuestionnaire. The data analyses were performed using descriptive statistics, independent group’s t-test, theMann-Whitney U test, the Kruskal-Wallis test and correlation analysis. It was determined that the nurses’average total Beck Anxiety Inventory score was 18.65±9.73, average total Moral Sensitivity Questionnaire scorewas 96.24±24.24. There was no relationship between anxiety and moral sensitivities of nurses (p>0.05).Research results showed that nurses had moderate levels of anxiety and moral sensitivity. With these results itmay be recommended to increase in-service training to improve the moral sensitivity of intensive care nurses andto develop improvement policies to reduce their anxiety levels.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessEtik,Hemşirelik,PsikolojiTHE EFFECT OF INTENSIVE CARE UNIT NURSES’ ANXIETY LEVELS ON MORAL SENSITIVITYArticle8390691842064610.33715/inonusaglik.753126
