description INTRODUCTION: In this study, it was aimed to determine the effects of demographic characteristics of nurses in X and Y generation on organizational commitment and organizational trust. METHODS: Descriptive and a cross-sectional research design. This research was carried out with nurses (N=360) from working in all the state hospitals affiliated with the Public Hospitals Union in a district of Istanbul. The study was carried out using research forms ('Form of Socio-Demographic Characteristics', 'Organizational Commitment Scale' and 'Organizational Trust Inventory'). The questionnaire forms were completed via face-to-face interviews. RESULTS: There was no difference found between the perceptions of organizational commitment and organizational trust levels in Gen X and Gen Y nurses (p>,05). The increase in the level of trust in the organization was determined to increase the levels of affective commitment and normative commitment (p<,05). The 'Trust in organization' level of the Gen X nurses had a significant positive influence on Affective Commitment (p=.000). The working hours in the clinic, where nurses are currently working, are affecting organizational trust and loyalty. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: The increase of in the level of Gen X and Gen Y nurses' trust have in the organization also increases affective commitment and normative commitment levels. Differences in the generations of the nurses does not affect their levels of organizational commitment and perceived organizational trust.
