The collected data were analyzed using SPSS software.Results: A total of 30 NICU nurses working in two public and private hospitals participated in the present study. The mean age of the participants was measured at 37.46±6.93 years, most of them (73.3%) held a Bachelor’s degree and more than 60% were married.
