Abstract

This dataset contains the raw data of the study 'Perceived Competences, Attitudes, and Training Needs in Conflict Management Among a Cohort of Italian Physiotherapists: A Cross-Sectional Survey Study' where we found that Italian Physiotherapists (n=203; mean age: 39±10.40) generally leaned towards a constructive communication style, characterised by compromise and collaboration, viewing conflict management as an opportunity to grow. There was a disparity between their exhibited behaviours and self-assessment of appropriateness in conflict resolution. Only 27.6% considered their conflict resolution skills as satisfactory. However, 85.7% acknowledged the significance of being trained in conflict management. Challenges were evident in conflicts within interprofessional relationships and communication with superiors. Both personal and organisational factors were identified as influencing conflict management, with participants recognising the detrimental impact of conflicts on their well-being and patient care.
