Data were collected using the Leadership Behavior Scale and the Digital Leadership Scale. Descriptive and comparative analyses, Pearson correlation analysis, and bivariate simple linear regression were performed.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n Task\u2010oriented leadership received the highest mean score, whereas change\u2010oriented leadership received the lowest. Overall digital leadership was positively correlated with all leadership behavior dimensions, with the strongest association observed for change\u2010oriented leadership (\n r<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.697,\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009<\u20090.001). In the bivariate regression analysis, change\u2010oriented leadership was positively associated with overall digital leadership and accounted for 48.6% of its variance (\n R<\/jats:italic>\n 2<\/jats:sup>\n \u2009=\u20090.486,\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009<\u20090.001). Overall digital leadership did not differ significantly according to the demographic and work\u2010related characteristics examined.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n Although task\u2010oriented leadership received the highest mean score, change\u2010oriented leadership showed the strongest association with overall digital leadership. These findings highlight the relevance of change\u2010oriented leadership in digitally transforming healthcare environments; however, the observed association should not be interpreted as causal or as an independent effect over other leadership dimensions.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Implications for Nursing Management<\/jats:title>\n The findings highlight the importance of integrating digital competencies with change\u2010oriented leadership development in nursing management education and continuing professional development. Supporting nurse managers in developing digital competencies alongside their capacity to guide organizational change may strengthen leadership readiness for increasingly technology\u2010enabled healthcare environments.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1155\/jonm\/1288508","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,17]],"date-time":"2026-10-17T09:15:28Z","timestamp":1792228528000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Examining the Relationship Between Digital Leadership and Leadership Behaviors of Nurse Managers"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2026","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2122-405X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Miray Celepli","family":"S\u00fctba\u015f","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Kumluca Vocational School Department of Management and Organisation Akdeniz University Antalya Turkey akdeniz.edu.tr"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5184-0008","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aysun","family":"\u00dcnal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kumluca Faculty of Health Sciences Nursing Management Department Akdeniz University Antalya Turkey akdeniz.edu.tr"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_13_1_2","first-page":"569","article-title":"\u0130novatif Bir Strateji Olarak Dijital Liderli\u011fin Teknoloji Kabul Modeli Ile Analizi","volume":"24","author":"Top\u00e7uo\u011flu E.","year":"2022","journal-title":"KM\u00dc Sosyal & Ekonomik Ara\u015ft\u0131rmalar Dergisi"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijnss.2018.09.013"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.12927\/cjnl.2019.25818"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_4_2","article-title":"How the Nursing Profession Should Adapt for a Digital Future","volume":"373","author":"Booth R.
