The method used was an analytic survey with a cross-sectional design on 161 clinical nurses at the inpatient installation of Immanuel Hospital, Bandung. Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire which was then analyzed using the chi-square test and multiple logistic regression tests. The results showed that there was no significant relationship between nurse characteristics, motivation, anxiety, organization, health condition of nurses and critical thinking skills (p > 0.05), but there was a significant relationship between education (p = 0.009) and knowledge (p = 0.001 ) with critical thinking skills.
