Abstract :In this study, nursing students\' blood and injury phobia and the conditions affecting it were evaluated. This descriptive study was conducted with 289 nursing students between September and December 2020. Data were collected using a prepared questionnaire and the Multidimensional Blood/Injury Phobia Inventory. Number, percentage, mean, standard deviation, quartiles, Mann–Whitney U and Kruskal–Wallis tests were used to evaluate the data. The mean score of students in the Multidimensional Blood/Injury Phobia Inventory was 56 ± 19.03, having a low level of blood injury phobia. In the total Multidimensional Blood/Injury Phobia Inventory, a significant difference (p<0.05) was found between \"those who said that they had intervened in someone who had blood and injury phobia and others\" and \"those who said that they felt fear while injecting themselves and others\", whereas no significant difference was found in the total score of the scale for the other variables. Before choosing nursing, candidates must pass various tests and those with this type of phobia must be guided.
