Purpose Moral intelligence is an important parameter that forms the basis and cornerstone of ethics in nursing. It is necessary to determine whether moral intelligence is reflected in the care that forms the basis of nursing. This study was carried out with the aim of determining the reflections of nurses' moral intelligence levels on their care behaviors. Findings This study was descriptive and cross‐sectional in nature. The study's sample size is 200 nurses. A personal Information Form, Moral Intelligence Scale, and Caring Behaviors Scale were used to collect data. It was determined that nurses' moral intelligence levels and caring behavior average scores were high. There was a highly significant positive connection (p = 0.001) between the mean scores of the moral intelligence total and subdimensions. And the mean scores of the caring behavior total and subdimensions. Practical Implications It is very important to determine the moral intelligence levels, which are acquired and developed ability and directly affect nursing care, and to take initiatives to improve the quality of the care provided.

The word mercy is stated to be derived from the words "pity, affection". 3 According to the definition of Turkish Language Institution (TDK), compassion is "the sadness and pity that one feels in the face of the unfavorable conditions that a person or another living thing experiences". 4 According to the Oxford English Dictionary, on the other hand, the word "compassion" originates from the Latin word "compati", which means "suffering". 2 The meaning and definition of compassion, how it can be measured, and whether it can be taught has been discussed by scientists since Aristotle, and it is still being discussed. 5-7 This is not surprising because compassion exists at the core of all major religions and in the moral and philosophical traditions of the world, doctrines, and humanist approaches. 7,8 Nietzsche states that compassion is a virtue that leads man to true morality, and a path that extends to both human love and justice. 9

ABS TRACT Objective: Global climate change, which is primarily caused by human activities, is a serious problem for all living creatures and the next generations. Due to this reason, the level of individual awareness on global climate change seems to be an important point to be determined. This study aims to analyze the level of awareness among the participants from generation X, Y and Z and the factors affecting their awareness. Material and Methods: The study is descriptive and cross-sectional. The sample of the study consisted of 630 participants residing in Türkiye's Tokat province and born between 1965 and 2012.The data of the study were collected using the personal information form and the Global Climate Change Awareness Scale (GCCAS). Results: Accordingly, 62.7% of the participants were male and 46.8% were graduates of high school. The percentage of Gen Xers, Yers and Zers were 42.1%, 26.8% and 31.1%, respectively. Graduates of high school (X=86.82) were statistically significantly higher than graduates of primary school (X=48.29) and university (75.13) (p<0.001). Besides, mean GCCAS score of the graduates of university was statistically significantly higher than graduates of primary school (p<0.001). Awareness of gen Xers on global climate change was higher than gen Yers and gen Zers, whereas the awareness of gen Yers was higher than gen Zers. Besides, participants from gen Z did not give importance to practices to prevent climate change (p=0.001). Conclusion: Based on the findings, it was concluded that educators and media can bear responsibility for raising awareness about global climate change among the members of generation Z. We can also suggest that policy makers take the necessary measures and interventions to increase the knowledge of generation Z on global climate change. In this context, the issue of global climate change can be included in the school curriculum as a vital step. In addition, it is thought that digital media can play a very important role in raising awareness about climate change in the digital age.
