Background : Incivility is a fundamental problem in nursing educational settings. Methods : This cross-sectional and analytic study comprised 330 faculty members from different schools of nursing in Turkey. A personal information form and the 12-item Incivility Scale were used to collect data. The data were analysed by using descriptive analysis, Mann–Whitney U and Kruskal–Wallis tests, Spearman's correlation test, linear regression tests and thematic analysis. Results : Faculty and research assistants who were single and holding master's degrees perceived high incivility (p < .05). There was also a significant, mildly negative relationship between age and incivility scores (r = −0.236). A strict hierarchical structure was revealed to also be a reason for incivility (p < .05). Conclusion : Further research is needed to determine the effectiveness of the solutions for faculty-to-faculty incivility. Implications for Nursing Management : This study can guide administrators regarding the causes and solutions of incivility within academic environments. By implementing strategies to increase awareness, administrators can become positive role models for faculty, providing a respectful and fair work environment to prevent incivility.ManagementNursingJournal Article1365-2834656175300001Q14232
