Data were collected face to face with the \"Descriptive Data Form\", \"Mental Health Literacy Scale (MHLS)\", \"Holistic Nursing Competence Scale (HNCS)\", and the \"Nursing Profession Self-Efficacy Scale (NPSES)\".</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The mean scale scores for the nurses were as follows: MHLS: 95.88 ± 11.67; HNCS: 179.46 ± 33.82; NPSES: 64.79 ± 11.24. A low-level positive correlation was found between the total scores of the MHLS, HNCS, and NPSES, and a moderate-level positive correlation was observed between the total scores of the HNCS and NPSES. These correlations were statistically significant (<i>P</i> < 0.05).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>It is recommended that initiatives be undertaken to enhance the mental health literacy and holistic nursing competencies of nurses and that similar studies be conducted with nurses in different institutions and with a larger number of nurses.</p>","PeriodicalId":23896,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Psychiatry","volume":"15 4","pages":"102672"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12038671/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144047449","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
