Abstract

The subjects of this study were 199 nurses attending the hospital and community mental health center or psychiatric rehabilitation center in B and K city. Data collected were analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 26.0 program. Correlations were calculated for the perception of proactivity, and human rights sensitivity and regression analysis were performed to examine the effect on advocacy attitudes and advocacy interventions. Factors having the greatest influence on nurses’ advocacy attitudes are “proactivity” (β =.532), and “human rights sensitivity” (β=.291), and the explanatory power was 60.5%. Factors having the greatest influence on nurses’ advocacy intervention are “proactivity” (β=.532), “human rights sensitivity” (β=.291), “turnover” (β=.121), “religion” (β=.092), “position” (β=.083) and the explanatory power was 72.6%. In addition, a continuous program should be developed and offered to psychiatric nurses who may have a positive approach toward advocacy.
