Background:

  • Collaborative practice is linked to improved healthcare outcomes.
  • Precursors to nurse-physician collaborative behavior require further exploration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Describe professional values and attitudes toward physician-nurse collaboration among nurses.

Main Results:

  • Significant positive correlation found between nurses' professional values and attitudes toward physician collaboration (r = .26, p < .01).
  • Higher education levels (master's or above) were positively associated with favorable attitudes toward physician-nurse collaboration (F(3, 224) = 4.379, p = .005).

Conclusions:
