        The research was carried out with a randomized controlled experimental design in order to&#xD;
        determine the effect of intercultural sensitivity training applied to nurses on intercultural&#xD;
        sensitivity and compassion level. Nurses working in a private hospital were included in the&#xD;
        sample of the study. A total of 66 nurses, 32 of whom were in the intervention and control&#xD;
        groups, were included in the study. &quot;Personal Information Form&quot;, &quot;Intercultural Sensitivity&#xD;
        Scale&quot; and &quot;Compassion Scale&quot; were used to collect data. &quot;Intercultural Sensitivity Training&quot;&#xD;
        consisting of four sessions was given to the intervention group.&#xD;
