In the embedded mixed research model where the quantitative approach is dominant, randomized controlled experimental research and qualitative research will be conducted simultaneously.1.1. Research questions for the qualitative phase 1.1.1. Research questions for the exploratory phase Q1. How successful are nurses in distinguishing the cultural differences of the individuals they care for? Q2. What are nurses\&#39; views on cross-cultural nursing care? Q4. How do nurses approach the culturally-based behaviors of the individuals they care for? Q5. What are the cultural experiences that nurses have with the individuals they care for?1.1.2. Research questions for the integrative phase Q1. What are the contributions of the books read to the cultural intelligence and competence of nurses? Q2. What are the contributions of the stories read to the cultural intelligence and competence of nurses? Q3. What are the contributions of the watched movie to the cultural intelligence and competence of nurses?1.1.3. Research questions for the explanatory phase Q1. What effect did bibliotherapy practice have on nurses\&#39; cultural intelligence? Q2. What impact did bibliotherapy practice have on nurses\&#39; cultural competence?1.2. Research hypotheses of the quantitative phase1. H1. Bibliotherapy intervention will increase the cultural intelligence levels of the nurses in the study group.2. H1. The cultural intelligence levels of the nurses in the study group will be higher than the nurses in the control group.3. H1.

The study will be carried out in an embedded intervention research model using a combination design (Quantitative + Qualitative) in the intervention design, which is one of the advanced mixed methods designs.
