The participants were selected via quota sampling. Data were collected using a demographic questionnaire and validated and reliable prosocial tendencies scale by Carlo et al. Data analysis was performed in SPSS version 19 using descriptive and analytical statistics. Results: The mean total score of prosocial tendencies in the nurses was 88.9±15.74. Among the prosocial tendencies, unknown dimensions (3.81±0.88), critical dimension (3.72±0.92), emotional dimension (3.72±1.1), compliant dimension (3.68±0.78), and altruistic tendencies (3.15±0.82) had the highest to the lowest mean scores, respectively.
