Validity and reliability were confirmed in previous studies. Data were analyzed by SPSS/13.Findings: The highest mean score in clinical competency was seen in managerial capabilities dimension (44.41±5.8) and the lowest mean score also was seen in diagnostic procedures dimension (13.94±1.84). The highest mean score in PSYCHOLOGICAL EMPOWERMENT was in competency dimension (9.4±1.38) and the lowest mean score also was in independence dimension (8.37±1.72). In addition, there was a significant correlation between the number of staff in ward, educational status of nurses and some dimensions of clinical competency and PSYCHOLOGICAL EMPOWERMENT and also between the working experience in current ward and some dimensions of clinical empowerment and clinical work experience and some PSYCHOLOGICAL EMPOWERMENT dimensions (P<0.05).Conclusion: Based on the higher rate of managerial capabilities and diagnostic procedures, in opposite of nurses impact and independence, retraining programs, continuing education or in-service education programs for nurses, giving more authority and more responsibility to nurses can promote sense of independence in all nurses.
