A correlational study examined patients' (n = 335) reports of
nurse caring and satisfaction with nursing care, using the
Caring Behaviors Inventory and Patient Satisfaction Instrument.
A strong, positive correlation (r = 0.78, p < .001, R2 =
61.46%) was found. The outcomes of this study have important
implications for adult health nurses.
