Brief Summary

This study was planned to examine the effect of music therapy on the comfort levels of nurses. In the study, data will be collected by using Descriptive Characteristics Information Form and Nurse Comfort Scale. Whether the nurses who meet the inclusion criteria will be in the intervention or control group will be determined by simple randomization. Music intervention sessions will be applied to each participant for 5 weeks, 3 days a week, 20 minutes per session. After 5 weeks, the Nurse Comfort Scale will be applied to the participants again.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Comfort

  The scale consists of 39 items in total. Each statement in the scale has a Likert-type rating ranging from 1-4 from "strongly disagree" to "strongly agree". 24 of the expressions are positive and 15 are negative, and negative items are reversed in scoring. Accordingly, a high score (4) indicates high comfort, a low score (1) indicates low comfort, and a low score (1) indicates high comfort in negative statements, and a high score (4) indicates low comfort. The Cronbach alpha coefficient was found to be 0.915.
