Abstract
The current study aimed to explore the level of professional self-concept among public health nurses in the city of Ouargla. The study employed a descriptive-analytical method and utilized a questionnaire consisting of 34 items with five-point Likert scale responses. These items were distributed across the three dimensions of professional self-concept: ideal, perceived, and social. After verifying the validity and reliability of the instrument, it was administered to a sample of 80 nurses. Statistical analysis using the SPSS software revealed a high level of professional self-concept among public health nurses. The results indicated that the dimension of perceived professional self-concept achieved the highest mean, followed by the ideal professional self-concept, and lastly, the social professional self-concept. Additionally, the findings showed no statistically significant differences in the level of professional self-concept among the study sample based on gender or professional experience.
