Objective: This study aimed to determine the relationship between nurses' innovativeness and bricolage levels. Method: The study is a descriptive study. It was conducted with 224 nurses working in a hospital in Izmir. Individual Innovation Scale and Bricolage Scale were used to collect data. The study analysis used numbers, percentage distribution, Kruskall Wallis, Mann Whitney U test, and correlation analysis. Result and Conclusion: It was found that the total mean score of the nurses from the individual innovativeness scale was 67.91±9.63, and the total mean score of the bricolage scale was 32.05±5.11. A positive correlation was found between nurses' bricolage scale scores and individual innovativeness scale total scores. According to the results of the study, we can say that the nurses have a high level of bricolage activities. It is possible that nurses' use of existing resources, that is, bricolage activities, affects individual innovativeness levels. For this reason, we can recommend organizing seminars, training programs, and new product definitions so that nurses can be aware of the innovations in care services. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
