This research was conducted to evaluate the impact of the Problem Solving and Decision Making Training program, which was developed to enhance the problem-solving and decision-making skills of nurse managers at the lower, middle, and upper levels, by the subordinates and superiors of nurse managers. To assess the problem-solving and decision-making skills of nurse managers as perceived by their subordinates, the Problem-Solving Inventory-Managerial Version (PSI-MV) and Decision-Making Styles Scale-Managerial Version (DMSS-MV) underwent adaptation, validity, and reliability studies. These studies aimed to enable the evaluation of nurse managers' problem-solving and decision-making abilities from the perspective of their subordinates.

These studies aimed to enable the evaluation of nurse managers' problem-solving and decision-making abilities from the perspective of their subordinates. The study was carried out using a systematic and randomized controlled design, incorporating elements such as pre-test-post-test, experimental, and control groups. In the initial phase of the research, the target population comprised 2,108 nurses employed at a city hospital in Istanbul, while the actual sample included 328 nurses. The validity and reliability studies of PSI-MV and DMSS-MV were carried out. In the scale analyses, psycholinguistic and psychometric properties were examined. In the second part of the research, a sample of 300 nurses, including 60 nurse managers and their subordinates (30 in the experimental group and 30 in the control group), was included using G*Power analysis for sample calculation.
