Özet
Objective: This study determined nurses' fear of COVID- 19 and job motivation levels. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted cross- sectionally with 147 nurses working in a public hospital between April 1 and April 30, 2022. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form, COVID-19 Fear Scale, and Nurse Job Motivation Scale. Data were evalua- ted using number, percentage, mean, and nonparametric tests. Results: The mean age of the nurses was 29.95±6.12 years (min=22, max=51); 89.1% were female, 59.2% were mar- ried, and 68.7% were undergraduate graduates. The total score on the COVID-19 Fear Scale was 15.85±5.73 (min=7, max=35), and the total score on the Nurse Job Motivation Scale was 60.70±8.66 (min=37, max=75). The- re was a significant difference between the total scores of the Nurse Job Motivation Scale and educational status, willingly choosing the unit where the nurses work, being satisfied with the unit where they job, and finding the nur- sing profession suitable for themselves (p<0.05). In addi- tion, female nurses' mean COVID-19 Fear Scale scores were higher than male nurses (p<0.05). Conclusion: The study's results showed that nurses' fear of COVID-19 was close to average, and their work motivation was above average.
