In order to collect data, demographic Information questionnaire and a standard Walker-promoting lifestyle questionnaire were used. Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 16, descriptive statistics, linear Regression and Pearson correlation coefficient.
Results: The mean scores of health-promoting behaviors of nurses were 134.62±20.92. The majority of nurses (54.30%) were in the moderate group in terms of health-promoting behaviors. The variables of first child, age, work experience and chronic illness had a statistically significant effect on the total score of health-promoting behaviors (P<0.001).
