Abstract

Incivility in nursing is a multidimensional problem that requires a new, innovative approach to managing complicated interpersonal behaviors. Emotional intelligence has emerged as an essential skill for the nursing profession, as these competencies have been associated with enhanced interpersonal interactions and may be effective in cultivating a civil academic and clinical environment. As little was known about how nursing faculty integrated such essential concepts in their curriculum and teaching, the purpose of this study was to gain an understanding of how undergraduate nursing faculty incorporated formal and informal emotional intelligence strategies to foster civility in baccalaureate nursing education. Additionally, faculty participants were asked to share their understanding of how these curricular components and teaching strategies influenced the academic climate.
