Data were collected using a Personal Information Form, the Coping Strategies Assessment Scale (COPE) and the Family Satisfaction in the Intensive Care Unit (FS\u2010ICU\u201024) Scale. Data were analysed using independent samples\n                      <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2010test, one\u2010way ANOVA, Welch's ANOVA, Tukey and Dunn's post hoc tests and Pearson correlation analysis.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 301 family members of surgical patients hospitalized in intensive care units were included in the study. The total FS\u2010ICU\u201024 score ranges from 24 to 120, with higher scores indicating greater satisfaction with intensive care services. The mean FS\u2010ICU\u201024 total score obtained by family members was 72.34\u2009\u00b1\u200913.98. When the FS\u2010ICU\u201024 subscales were examined, the care subscale demonstrated the highest mean score, whereas the information and decision\u2010making subscales showed relatively lower mean scores. The total score of the COPE scale ranges from 60 to 240, with higher scores reflecting more frequently used coping strategies. The mean total COPE score of family members was 155.03\u2009\u00b1\u200941.00. The most frequently used strategies were religious coping, positive reinterpretation and growth, and active coping, while substance use and behavioural disengagement were least preferred. A negative correlation was found between total COPE and FS\u2010ICU\u201024 scores, whereas a positive correlation was observed between COPE total and the FS\u2010ICU\u201024 decision\u2010making subscale.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The findings demonstrate an association between family members' satisfaction with the intensive care unit and their coping strategies. Overall, family satisfaction was moderate level, with lower scores observed in information sharing and decision\u2010making compared to the care dimension. Families most frequently used religious coping, positive reinterpretation and growth and active coping strategies, whereas substance use and behavioural disengagement were least preferred.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Relevance to Clinical Practice<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The findings highlight the importance of strengthening family\u2010centred communication and decision\u2010making processes in intensive care units. Nursing interventions aimed at improving information sharing and addressing families' emotional needs may contribute to higher satisfaction levels and support more adaptive coping during the intensive care experience.<\/jats:p>\n
