Objectives: to assess nurses' perceptions of nursing activities that contribute to quality of care in France.

Methods: descriptive cross-sectional study, between February and August 2020 in France. Sociodemographic characteristics were recorded, and nurses' perceptions were assessed using F-EPAECQC.

Results: the sample comprised 125 female nurses (21-64 years); 52% had only graduate education, and 82.4% had less than 10 years in their care unit. The F-EPAECQC score averaged 75.65 points (range 24-96). Significant associations were found between management experience and quality of care perception (p > 0.012), and between "well-being and self-care" and years of professional exercise in the unit (p > 0.001). A low hospital policies commitment was revealed with a majority of "never" and "sometimes" answers at "nursing care organization".

Conclusions: the results confirmed good French nurses' perceptions. The statistically significant association between management experience and perceptions of the quality of nursing care activities revealed the importance of this area.

The aim of the study was to determine the test-retest reliability of MMN and LDN recorded to simple speech contrasts in children with listening difficulties.
