Özet

© 2021 Wiley Periodicals LLC.Purpose: This study aimed to examine the relationship between self-disclosure, empathy, and anxiety in nurses. Design and Methods: The study was conducted with 255 nurses working in hospitals in Turkey. Data were collected using a Sociodemographic Form, the Self-Disclosure Scale (SDS), the Basic Empathy Scale (BES), and the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). Findings: A statistically significant positive relationship was found among the SDS, BES, and Spielberger STAI. Practice Implications: Psychiatric nurses should ensure the reduction of nurses' anxiety levels by planning different interventions such as psychotherapy, counseling, and training. They may determine nurses' self-disclosure and empathy skills as well as their needs.
