This is a descriptive cross-sectional study. The study was completed with 184 nurses who agreed to participate voluntarily. The data were collected in the hospitals where the study was collected using competencies in disaster nursing management and disaster response self-efficacy scales. Data analysis was performed using various statistical methods, including Student t-test, ANOVA, Tukey post hoc test, Chai square analysis, Pearson Correlation analysis and Binary Logistic Regression analysis. The mean score of the competencies in the disaster nursing management scale was 315.95±61.74, and the mean score of the disaster response self-efficacy scale was 68.11±12.42. There was a positive relationship between disaster management competence and intervention self-efficacy. Government hospital and bachelor's degree were found to be determinants of disaster management competence. Providing care to the disaster victim was found to be a determinant of disaster response self-efficacy. The study's results reveal the competencies and self-efficacy of nurses required for effective and quality disaster management and response. It also provides a conceptual framework by summarising the relationship between disaster management competence and response self-efficacy and the factors affecting them. It shows the importance of education level, disaster caregiving and institutional diversity in disaster management. KW - Disaster KW - Disaster management KW - Nurse KW - Self-efficacy N2 - Bu çalışmanın amacı hemşirelerin afet yönetim yetkinlik ve müdahale öz-yeterlilik düzeylerini belirlemek, bağımsız değişkenler açısından değerlendirmek ve ölçekler arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Tanımlayıcı tipte kesitsel bir çalışmadır. Çalışma gönüllü olarak katılmayı kabul eden 184 hemşire ile tamamlandı. Veriler, afet hemşireliği yönetiminde yetkinlikler ve afet müdahale öz-yeterlilik ölçekleri ile toplandı. Verilerin analizinde Student t testi, ANOVA, Chai squar analizi, Tukey post hoc testi, Pearson Korelasyon analizi, Binary Lojistik Regresyon analizi kullanıldı. Afet hemşireliği yönetiminde yetkinlikler ölçeği puan ortalaması 315,95±61,74 ve afete müdahale öz-yeterlilik ölçeği puan ortalaması 68,11±12,42 saptandı. Afet yönetim yetkinliği ile müdahale öz-yeterliği arasında pozitif yönlü ilişki belirlendi. Eğitim araştırma hastanesinde çalışmanın afet yönetim yetkinliğinin belirleyicisi olduğu belirlendi. Afetzedeye bakım vermenin afet müdahale öz-yeterliliğinin belirleyicisi olduğu saptandı. Araştırma sonuçları hemşirelerin etkili ve kaliteli afet yönetimi ve müdahalesi için gerekli olan yetkinliklerini ve özyeterliliklerini ortaya koymaktadır. Aynızamanda afet yönetim yetkinliği ve müdahale öz yeterliliği arasındaki ilişkiyi ve etki eden faktörleri özetleyerek kavramsal bir çerçeve sunmaktadır. Afet yönetiminde eğitim düzeyi, afetzedeye bakım verme ve kurumsal farklılığın önemini göstermektedir. CR - 1. Lan L, Zhou M, Wang L. et al.
