Factors Predicting Emotional Cue ‐Responding Behaviors of Nurses in Taiwan: An Observational Study

ConclusionsThis study is the first to explore factors related to Taiwanese nurses’ CRE. Compared to nurses in other countries, Taiwanese nurses tended to respond to patients’ emotional cues with more inappropriate strategies. We also identified significant predictors of CRE that show the importance of communication training. Future research and education programs are needed to enhance nurses’ CRE and to advocate for emotion‐focused communication.
