Aim: This study aims to explore the relationship between nursing informatics competencies and clinical decision-making among nurses in Jordan.Design: A cross-sectional, descriptive-correlational design was used with a sample of 249 registered nurses from three tertiary governmental hospitals in Jordan, utilizing the Self-Assessment of Nursing Informatics Competencies Scale and the Clinical Decision-Making in Nursing Scale.Results: Nurses reported moderate-to-high informatics competencies (M = 3.17, SD = 0.76) and decision-making abilities (M = 3.30, SD = 0.94). Total nursing informatics competencies score showed a significant positive correlation with all clinical decision-making domains, with the strongest correlation observed for critical thinking (Pearson r =0.57, P < 0.05), followed by clinical judgment (Pearson r = 0.52, P < 0.05). Conclusion: The findings underscore a significant link between nursing informatics competencies and clinical decisionmaking, with professional experience, system usage frequency, and informatics training serving as key predictors. These results highlight the importance of targeted interventions to enhance informatics skills and support effective clinical decisions.
