Abstract

Introduction: In the context of intensified globalization and increased population mobility, professional communities are becoming increasingly diverse in terms of culture, language, and generation. The aim of this study was to assess the level of cultural intelligence among nurses from different generational cohorts, considering their sociodemographic characteristics.
Material and methods: The study included 463 nurses from southeastern Poland. The Polish version of the Cultural Intelligence Scale (CQS) was employed. The data were analyzed using statistical methods.
Results: The overall level of cultural intelligence averaged 4.25. The highest-scoring dimension was the metacognitive component (4.65), while the cognitive dimension scored the lowest (3.86).
Conclusions: Nurses demonstrated a moderate level of cultural intelligence. This level was significantly influenced by variables such as place of residence, religion, age, years of professional experience, and education level.
