This descriptive study was conducted with 76 nurses in internal medicine clinics. Personal Information Form, Individual Innovativeness Scale (IIS) and Evidence-Based Nursing Attitude Questionnaire (EBNAQ) were used to collect data. Data were analyzed by using SPSS v23. Total mean score of ISS was 68.05±7.05, while total mean score attitude towards EBN was 48.20±2.78. In this study, a positive relationship was determined between total mean score attitude towards EBN and total mean score IIS (p<0.05). It was determined that the internal medicine nurses who participated in this study had moderate innovativeness and “questioning” innovative characteristic, and they had moderate level of evidence-based practice attitudes. In addition, it was determined that as the innovativeness of the nurses in these clinics increased, their attitudes towards evidence-based practice also increased. In order for nurses to use evidence-based practices, their innovative features should be highlighted and supported.2022Articlehttps://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/ebyu/184151302-9282trHacettepe Sağlık İdaresi Dergisiinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://ebyu-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/ebyu/18415
