Abstract

To determine the relationships between the novice nurses' emotional management skills and their happiness levels. This cross-sectional study was conducted on 398 novice nurses in Istanbul using a Nurse Fact Sheet, Emotions Management Skills Scale (EMSS), and the Oxford Happiness Scale Short Form. It was determined that the "Verbal expression of emotions," "Control of negative body response," and "Coping" subdimensions of the EMSS accounted for 21% of the variance in the total variable of the happiness scale (p < 0.001). Novice nurses should be supported with training to improve their emotional management skills throughout their working lives, starting from the hospitalization phase. Factors that negatively affect nurses' happiness levels should be controlled.
