AB  - Introduction: End-of-life care is often provided by nurses in intensive care units, and enhancing the quality of patient care largely depends on personality traits. Aim: The study aimed to investigate the associations between the attitudes and practices of intensive care nurses toward end-of-life care and their personality traits. Method: This cross-sectional study involved 201 intensive care nurses. The Ten-item Personality Inventory and the Attitudes and Behaviors Towards End-of-Life Care Scale were used. Regression analysis and the independent samples t-test were used to analyze the data. Results: The nurses' average age was 29.90 ± 4.64 years. The highest-scoring personality traits were extroverted and willing, sympathetic and warm, and reliable and self-disciplined. Age was significantly associated with agreeableness (p = 0.043). Emotional stability scores were lower for nurses in anesthesia and reanimation units compared to other units (p = 0.004). The duration of working in the intensive care unit was inversely connected with extraversion (p = 0.023). The mean overall score for attitudes and behaviors about end-of-life care was 56.29 ± 5.62. No significant correlation was found between personality traits and the Attitudes and Behaviors towards the End-of-Life Care Scale. Conclusion: Age, the type of intensive care unit, and years of experience were associated with certain personality traits among nurses. Yet, no statistically significant correlation was discovered between personality characteristics, beliefs, and practices around end-of-life care

N2  - Giriş: Yaşam sonu bakımı sıklıkla yoğun bakım ünitelerinde hemşireler tarafından sağlanır ve hasta bakım kalitesinin artırılması büyük ölçüde hemşirelerin kişilik özelliklerine bağlıdır. Amaç: Bu çalışmada, yoğun bakım hemşirelerinin kişilik özellikleri ile yaşam sonu bakıma yönelik tutum ve davranışları arasındaki ilişki incelendi. Metot: Bu kesitsel çalışma, 201 yoğun bakım hemşiresi ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Verilerin toplanmasında On Maddelik Kişilik Özellikleri Envanteri ve Yaşam Sonu Bakıma Yönelik Tutum ve Davranışlar Ölçeği kullanıldı. Veriler bağımsız örneklem t-testi ve regresyon analizi ile analiz edildi. Bulgular: Hemşirelerin yaş ortalaması 29,90 ± 4,64 idi. En yüksek puan alan kişilik özellikleri dışa dönük ve istekli, sempatik ve sıcak ve güvenilir ve disiplinli idi. Yaş ile uyumluluk arasında güçlü bir bağlantı vardı (p = 0,043). Anestezi ve reanimasyon ünitelerinde çalışan hemşirelerin duygusal stabilite puanları diğer ünitelerdekilerden daha düşüktü (p = 0,004). Dışadönüklük ve yoğun bakım ünitesinde çalışma süresi arasında negatif bir korelasyon bulundu (p = 0,023). Yaşam sonu bakımı hakkındaki tutum ve davranışlar için ortalama toplam puan 56,29 ± 5,62 idi. Kişilik özellikleri ile Yaşam Sonu Bakımına Yönelik Tutum ve Davranışlar Ölçeği arasında anlamlı bir korelasyon bulunmadı. Sonuç: Yaş, yoğun bakım ünitesi türü ve deneyim yılı, hemşirelerin belirli kişilik özellikleri ile ilişkilendirildi. Hemşirelerin kişilik özellikleri ile yaşam sonu bakıma yönelik tutum ve davranışları arasında bir ilişki bulunmadı
