AimsTo investigate the relationship between climate change cognition and behaviours (awareness, concern, motivation, behaviours at home and behaviours at work), positive and negative future cognition, and environmental sustainability attitudes in nurses and to identify the factors affecting environmental sustainability attitudes.DesignA cross‐sectional study.MethodsIn total, 358 nurses currently working in tertiary hospitals in Korea were recruited. Data were collected using an online questionnaire link from 1 August to 7 August 2022. Climate change cognition and behaviours were measured using the Korean version of the Climate, Health, and Nursing Tool. Positive and negative future cognition were measured using the Korean version of the Future Event Questionnaire. Environmental sustainability attitude was measured using the Korean version of the Sustainability Attitudes in Nursing Survey‐2. Multiple regression analysis was used to identify the factors affecting environmental sustainability attitudes.ResultsMotivation, concern and behaviours at work were factors affecting environmental sustainability attitudes. Motivation was a pivotal influencing factor. Better scores for environmental sustainability attitudes were specifically correlated with higher scores for motivation, concern and behaviours at work.ConclusionsNurses' motivation, climate change concern and pro‐environmental workplace practices should all be considered to improve their attitudes towards environmental sustainability.Implications for the Profession and/or Patient CareTo enhance nurses' environmental sustainability attitudes and behaviours, nurse educators must educate them to increase their motivation for climate action.ImpactNurses are increasingly expected to contribute to environmental sustainability. Hence, awareness of climate change and environmental sustainability among nurses must be improved, and nursing engagement and action encouraged. Nurse educators and managers should explore barriers to pro‐environmental behaviour engagement among nurses, examine workplace cultures that encourage pro‐environmental behaviours and develop policies/regulations to develop more environmentally sustainable workplaces.Reporting MethodWe adhered to the Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) guidelines.Patient or Public ContributionNeither patients nor the public were involved in our research's design, conduct, reporting or dissemination plans. The nurses partook in this study exclusively as research participants and were not involved in any research process.

影响护士环境可持续性态度的因素——关注气候变化认知和行为：横断面研究

目的 调查护士的气候变化认知与行为（意识、关注、动机、家庭行为和工作行为）、积极和消极的未来认知以及环境可持续态度之间的关系，并确定影响环境可持续态度的因素。 ‐截面研究。方法总共招募了358名目前在韩国三级医院工作的护士。数据是通过2022年8月1日至7日的在线问卷链接收集的。气候变化认知和行为是使用韩国版的气候、健康和护理工具来测量的。使用韩国版的未来事件问卷来测量积极和消极的未来认知。使用韩国版的护理可持续性态度调查-2 来衡量环境可持续性态度。采用多元回归分析确定影响环境可持续态度的因素。结果工作动机、关注点和行为是影响环境可持续态度的因素。动机是一个关键的影响因素。环境可持续性态度的得分越高，与工作中动机、关注和行为的得分越高。结论 护士的动机、气候变化关注和亲环境的工作场所实践都应被考虑，以改善他们对环境可持续性的态度。对职业的启示和/或患者护理为了提高护士的环境可持续性态度和行为，护士教育者必须教育他们提高气候行动的动力。影响 人们越来越期望护士为环境可持续性做出贡献。因此，必须提高护士对气候变化和环境可持续性的认识，并鼓励护理参与和行动。护士教育工作者和管理人员应探讨护士参与环保行为的障碍，研究鼓励环保行为的工作场所文化，并制定政策/法规以发展更加环境可持续的工作场所。 报告方法我们坚持加强流行病学观察研究的报告(STROBE) 指南。患者或公众贡献患者和公众均未参与我们研究的设计、实施、报告或传播计划。护士仅作为研究参与者参与本研究，不参与任何研究过程。
