Purpose:
The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between individualized care (IC) perceptions and innovativeness among final-year nursing students.
Design And Methods:
The population of this analytical study consisted of 230 students. Data were collected using a student information form (individualized care scale [ICS]-nurse version, individual innovativeness). Data analysis was carried out using descriptive, comparative, correlational, and stepwise regression analysis statistics.
Findings:
Nursing students had a high perception of IC and an early majority level of innovativeness. As their innovativeness levels increased, their perceptions of IC also increased. There was a positive correlation between the total ICS-A-nurse score and the individual innovativeness scale/openness to experience subscale. In regression analysis, the individual innovativeness total increased IC.
Practice Implications:
Courses and practical work should be organized for students to raise their awareness of IC and to increase their innovativeness.
