Experimental: Application group
After the purpose of the study and the method of application are explained to the intensive care nurses, the "Introductory Information Form", and Conflict Resolution Scale will be applied.

The Conflict Resolution Scale will be repeated at the end of Web-based conflict resolution training program.The Web-Based Conflict Resolution Training Satisfaction Survey will be administered to the intervention group along with the post-test, which will question their satisfaction with the conflict resolution training program.

Researchers developed the content of the web-based conflict resolution training program. First, ten experts were consulted to check the program's clarity and suitability. Second, the program was revised and finalized according to the experts' feedback.

A web page was obtained from the World Wide Web (www) by using hosting and domain services. Technical support and consultancy were received from a professional web design company during the implementation of the website. The content of the training program, for which expert opinions were obtained, was transferred to the web page. Web-based conflict resolution training program will be applied to the intervention group for 2 week.
