ABSTRACT
To determine the relationship between conscientious intelligence and organizational identification in nurses. This descriptive correlational study was conducted in a private hospital in Ankara. 223 nurses were recruited using the simple random sampling method. Data were collected with a personal information form, the Conscientious Intelligence Scale, and the Organizational Identification Scale. Data were analyzed using SPSS 20 statistics program. Kruskal Wallis variance analysis, multiple linear regression, and correlation analysis were used to analyze the data. There was a linear positive medium level relationship between the Organizational Identification Scale and the total and sub-dimensions of the Conscientious Intelligence Scale. The Conscientious Intelligence Scale (with job tenure and shift style subdimensions) explains 26.6% of the Organizational Identification Scale. The Conscientious Intelligence Scale (? = 0.477) has more effect on the Organizational Identification Scale than other variables. The total scores of the nurses on Conscientious Intelligence Scale and Organizational Identification Scale were above average. Overall job tenure, tenure at the organization, and the level of conscientious intelligence among nurses increase organizational identification
