Design and Methods The study is descriptive cross-sectional and correlational research. Findings The results demonstrated that there was a statistically significant positive relationship between the nurses' spirituality and the subdimension of intimate behavior (r = .545) (P < .05). Regarding the nurses' in-depth behaviors, the study found that spirituality (beta = .550) and the number of patients that the nurses were responsible for (beta = -.154) were statistically significant predictors (P < .05). The subdimensions of superficial behavior, spirituality (beta = .498), and rechoosing the profession (beta = -.142) were statistically significant predictors as well (P < .05). Practice Implications For the development of emotional labor in clinical nurses, administrators should be sensitive to nurses' spiritual values.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessEmotional LaborNurseSpiritualityArticle563712719WOS:0005146232000012-s2.0-850869968233208085210.1111/ppc.12486Q1Q2
