In statistical evaluation; Number, percentage, mean, standard deviation and Pearson correlation analysis were used. The mean age of the midwives participating in the study was 39.05 ± 8.56 and 50.9% of them were bachelor's degree. It was found that 37% of midwives worked in delivery room and 58.8% worked both day and night. The mean score of work-related strain ınventory of midwives was 58.35 ± 7.39, of Conflict Resolution Styles Inventory was 40.95 ± 7.72. There was a weak negative relationship between midwives' mean scores on work-related strain inventory and conflict resolution styles ınventory (r: - 0.240; p: 0.010). In addition, there was a negative correlation between the conflict resolution styles inventory communication cutoff subscale and the mean score of the work-related tension scale (r: -0.240; p: 0.011), but no significant relationship was found between the other subscales. It was found that midwives who participated in the study had high levels of work-related strain and were affected by their relationship with their spouses. As the level of work-related strain increases, it is determined that the method of cutting communication is used more in conflict resolution.
