A written permission was taken from the management of the health high school regarding the research. Problem Solving Inventory and Social Skill Inventory; the form towards socio-demographic data prepared by the researchers was used. SPSS-16 software programme were used to analyze the data. The participants were a total of 248 people, with %76.2 female. 66 of the students are from the 1st grade, 67 from the 2nd, 58 from the 3rd and 57 from the 4th grade. When some substance use properties of the students were observed, %11.3 stated they smoke, %9.3 of the students stated that they drink alcohol. Statistically significant relations were determined between problem solving and sub-scales regarding social skills. A statistically significant relationship was identified between confidence in the problem solving skills and emotional expressivity. According to this, as the score average for confidence in problem solving skills increase, emotional expressivity decreases. That is, the non-verbal communication skills of the individual are decreasing. Consequently, as the problem solving skills of nursing students decrease, their social skill levels are decreasing as well.
