Professionalism is characterized by the degree of dedication displayed by individuals regarding the values and behavioral attributes of a specific career identity. Professionalism indicates attitudes that represent high levels of identification with and commitment to a specific profession. In the process of the professional development of nursing, various factors affect these obstacles which may impede the professional development of nurses and their professional behaviors. This study was carried out with the aim of determining the professional behavior of nurses in a hospital in Turkey.
In this descriptive exploratory study a total of 89 nurses working in a public hospital in northwestern of Turkey were participated. Data were collected using a demographic questionnaire and Behavioral Inventory Form for Professionalism in Nursing (BIPN).
The result showed that mean scores on the BIPN were 5.07 (3.47). The areas with the highest levels of professional behavior were competence and continuing education 1.88 (0.34). The professionalism levels for nurses were the lowest in the areas of autonomy 0.06 (0.34), publication 0.10 (0.25), and research 0.25 (0.60). There was a statistically significant difference between the total BIPN scores and the education levels of the nurses and the working of nurses.
The professional behavior of nurses is at a low level. Since the arrangement of the nurses' working conditions affects their professional behaviors; therefore, development in the field of professional behaviors in nursing must be assessed and supported to increase the quality of patient care.
职业素养的特点是个人对特定职业身份的价值观和行为属性所表现出的奉献程度。职业素养体现了对特定职业高度认同和投入的态度。在护理专业发展过程中，各种因素影响着这些可能阻碍护士专业发展及其职业行为的障碍。本研究旨在确定土耳其一家医院护士的职业行为。
在这项描述性探索性研究中，共有89名在土耳其西北部一家公立医院工作的护士参与。使用人口统计学问卷和护理职业素养行为量表（BIPN）收集数据。
结果显示，BIPN的平均得分为5.07（3.47）。职业行为水平最高的领域是能力和继续教育，得分为1.88（0.34）。护士在自主性（0.06（0.34））、发表文章（0.10（0.25））和研究（0.25（0.60））等领域的职业素养水平最低。BIPN总分与护士的教育水平和工作情况之间存在统计学上的显著差异。
护士的职业行为处于较低水平。由于护士工作条件的安排会影响其职业行为；因此，必须评估和支持护理职业行为领域的发展，以提高患者护理质量。
