The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between nurseschr('39') cognitive and metacognitive skills with work-family conflict. Methods: This research was a descriptive correlation with applied nature in 2020. The statistical population includes nurses of Shiraz medical hospitals. The statistical sample was calculated using Cochranchr('39')s formula of 345 nurses. The sampling method was selected randomly. The data collection tool for measuring the variables of cognitive and metacognitive skills and work-family conflict in this study is a researcher-made questionnaire with a total of 23 questions, the reliability of which is obtained through Cronbachchr('39')s alpha coefficient of 89 and its validity is obtained by experts. . This questionnaire is based on a 5-point Likert scale from strongly agree to strongly disagree. To test the data as normal, the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test was used. Due to the abnormality of the data, the Spearman test was used to determine the correlation. Statistical analyzes were performed using SPSS software. Results: The mean of cognitive skills was 4.38 with standard deviation of 1.08, the mean of metacognitive skills was 4.46 with standard deviation of 1.13 and the mean of work-family conflict was 4.71 with standard deviation of 1.02. Spearman correlation coefficient between cognitive and metacognitive skills with work and family conflict was calculated to be -0.68 and -0.51, respectively. Conclusion: Improving cognitive and metacognitive skills increases nurseschr('39') mental abilities and learning and how to use resources optimally to achieve organizational goals. The results showed that by strengthening and increasing these skills, the amount of conflict between the two roles of work and family in nurses is reduced.ficiency. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between nurseschr('39') cognitive and metacognitive skills with work-family conflict. Methods: This is a descriptive-correlational study with applied nature in 2020. The statistical population includes nurses in Shiraz Medical Sciences Hospitals. The statistical sample was calculated using Cochran formula of 345 nurses. A simple random sampling method and a researcher-made questionnaire consisted of 23 questions. Its reliability was obtained through Cronbachchr('39')s alpha coefficient of 89 and its validity was assessed by Camus and Bartlett sampling adequacy test. Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to test the normality of the data. Spearman test was used to determine the correlation. Statistical analyzes were performed using SPSS software. Results: The mean of cognitive skills was 4.38 with a standard deviation of 1.08, the mean of metacognitive skills was 4.46 with a standard deviation of 1.13 and the mean of work-family conflict was 4.71 with a standard deviation of 1.02. Spearmanchr('39')s correlation coefficient between cognitive and metacognitive skills with work-family conflict was -0.68 and -0.51, respectively.
