description The aim of the study is to examine the correlation between book reading habits and empathetic skills of nursing students. The universe of the study consisted of 276 students studying in the nursing department of a vocational school of health sciences at a university. The sample selection was not performed and the whole universe was involved in the study. However, students present at the school on the date when data were collected who agreed to participate in the study were included in the study and the study was completed with 236 nursing students. The data were collected using "Empathetic Skill Scale B Form" and "The Attitude Scale toward Book Reading Habits." The attitude scale toward book reading habits total mean scores of students was found to be 74.71±9.86. The empathetic skill scale mean score of students was found to be 137.38±15.56 and the empathetic skill score to be at moderate level. Moreover, no significant correlation was found between the attitude scale toward book reading habits sub-dimension mean scores and empathetic skill scale mean score of students.
