Abstract

Aims: The aim of this study is to determine correlation between paediatric nurses' “ethical intelligence” with “quality of work life” and “caring behaviour.”. Design: Descriptive correlational study. Methods: Data were collected with EIQ, QWL and CBI. Two hundred and one nurses and 201 caregivers of children hospitalized in a paediatric hospital in Tehran were randomly selected as participants. Data were analysed by SPSS. The data were collected in 2019. Results: Comparison of the subscale “ethical intelligence” with the scale “quality of work life” indicated a significant positive correlation between “honesty” with “job and carrier satisfaction” and “forgiveness” with “job and carrier satisfaction”. In addition, findings showed a significant positive correlation between “honesty” and “control at work” and between “accountability” with “home–work interface.” There was no significant correlation between “ethical intelligence” and “caring behaviours” and between nurses' “quality of work life” and “caring behaviours.” Structural equation modelling showed a correlation between nurses' “ethical intelligence” and “quality of work life.”.
