Abstract

A statistically positive relationship was found between nurses' professional values and compassion satisfaction.

  • Nurses' professional values may significantly predict their professional quality of life.
  • 44% of the variance in compassion satisfaction and 24% in burnout can be explained by professional values, education level, consideration of changing units, and social life allocation.
  • Considering changes in job units is the most important predictor of compassion satisfaction.
  • Truth value is identified as the most significant predictor of burnout.
  • Nurses who adhere to professional values could experience higher levels of compassion satisfaction and burnout.
  • Higher compassion satisfaction is associated with lower levels of compassion fatigue.
