Özet
Introduction: Cultural diversity in health care requires nursing students to develop transcultural sensitivity and critical thinking to provide equitable care. This study explored the relationship between transcultural nursing sensitivity and critical thinking among senior nursing students in T & uuml;rkiye. Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional, correlational design was conducted with 151 senior nursing interns from a university nursing department. Data were collected online using the Student Information Form, the California Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory, and the Turkish Intercultural Sensitivity Scale. Results: The mean age of participants was 22.49 +/- 1.52 years; 74.2% were female and 84.1% were Turkish. While 72.8% had experience with culturally diverse patients, 88.8% lacked formal intercultural training. Mean scores reflected moderate-to-high intercultural sensitivity (87.4 +/- 11.47) and critical thinking (254.04 +/- 27.85). Critical thinking significantly predicted intercultural sensitivity (beta = .688, R-2 = .473, p < .001). Discussion: Findings confirm a significant correlation, supporting integration of these skills into nursing education.
