PURPOSE This study was carried out to determine the relationship between the level of conscientious intelligence and cultural sensitivity among nursing students. METHODS This is a cross-sectional descriptive design. The sample of this study consisted of 172 nursing students. The study data were collected using a sociodemographic data form, the intercultural sensitivity scale, and the conscientious intelligence scale. RESULTS The mean intercultural sensitivity scale score was 80.07 ± 10.68, and the mean conscientious intelligence scale score was 120.89 ± 12.32. Also, a positive relationship was determined between both scales that the nursing students obtained. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS The scale scores of nursing students were found to be a moderate level. As students' conscientious intelligence levels increased, their intercultural sensitivity was determined to increase, as well.
