Objective To explore the relationship between the critical thinking disposition and the innovation behavior in nurses. Methods A total of 360 clinical nurses were questionnaired by the critical thinking disposition inventory and innovation behavior scale. Pearson correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analysis were used to explore the effect of critical thinking disposition on the innovation behavior in nurses. Results The total scores of critical thinking disposition and innovation behavior in nurses were respectively 290.68±33.46 and 4.12±0.96. There was significant difference of the score of innovation behavior in nurses with different professional titles and working years(F=6.257, 4.802, P<0.05). The score of innovation behavior was positively correlated with the scores of seek truth, open mind, analysis ability, systematic ability, self-confidence, learning desire and cognitive maturity(r=0.367-0.514, P<0.05). Hierarchical regression analysis showed that the seek truth, open mind, analysis ability, systematic ability, self-confidence, learning desire and cognitive maturity were the influencing factors of innovative behavior in nurses. Conclusions The critical thinking disposition and innovation behavior were in medium level in nurses, and the critical thinking disposition was the influencing factors of innovative behavior in nurses.
