Data were analyzed, using independent t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and hierarchical multiple regression analysis.
Result: The mean score for nurses performance of creative practice was (range 1 to 4). Creative nursing practice had positive correlation with nurses’ job satisfaction (r=.427, p<.001) and organizational commitment (r=.433, p<.001). Creative nursing practice factors influencing job satisfaction were implementing customized care (=.158, p=.010), making new knowledge (=.257, p<.001), and searching ideas (=.209, p<.001). Nurses’ organizational commitment was influenced by implementing customized care (=.192, p=.002), making new knowledge (=.158, p=.028), searching ideas (=.254, p<.001), sharing ideas (=.250, p=.003), and validating ideas (=.189, p=.036).
