Self-realization involves the realization of one's aims, revealing his/her potential, self-satisfaction, personal accomplishment, and scientific inventions. It is important to know nurses' self-realization levels and the variables that affect it, because self-fulfillment is necessary for the personal and professional development of nurses. This study was conducted to determine the relation between self-realization and burnout levels of nurses. The study is a cross-sectional study that was conducted on 136 nurses who worked at Çukurova University, Faculty of Medicine Hospital in Adana, Turkey. The data were collected with the Personal Information Form and the "Self-realization" sub-dimension of the "Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale" and the "Maslach Burnout Scale." The analyses of the data were made in the SPSS demo packet Program with percentages, averages, variance analysis, Student t test, and Mann-Whitney U test. The Ethical Board Approval and Institutional Approval were obtained for the study. The self-realization score average of the nurses was 32.93 ± 6.43. The self-realization scores of the nurses who preferred their jobs willingly were found to be higher, and their burnout levels were found to be lower. It was also determined that female nurses experienced more emotional burnout compared to male nurses. In the present study, it was determined that the personal accomplishment score averages were higher and the desensitization and emotional burnout score averages, which are among the burnout scale sub-dimensions, were lower in those who had higher self-realization scores.
