Correlation between nurses'self-efficacy and job engagement in cancer hospitals
Objective To examine the correlation between nurses'job engagement and self-efficacy in cancer hospitals.Methods The convenient sampling method was used to collect information from 771 nurses in a Class A tertiary cancer hospital in Beijing.Participants completed a general information questionnaire,a job engagement questionnaire and a self-efficacy questionnaire.Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation between nurses'self-efficacy and job engagement in cancer hospitals.Multiple linear regression analysis was used to investigate independent influencing factors of nurses'job engagement in specialized hospitals.Results The overall score of the self-efficacy scale was(31.80±0.17).The overall score of the Job Engagement Scale was(50.50±0.37).Nurses'job engagement was related to gender,professional title,employment form,monthly income and marital status(all P＜0.05),and their self-efficacy was related to employment form(P=0.005).Correlation analysis showed significant positive correlations between self-efficacy and job engagement and its vigor,dedication and absorption dimensions(r=0.560,0.557,0.543 and 0.477,P＜0.001).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that marital status and self-efficacy are independent influencing factors of job engagement(both P＜0.05).Conclusions Self-efficacy can improve the work engagement of nurses in cancer hospitals.Managers should take active measures to improve nurses'self-efficacy,so as to improve their work engagement levels,and promote nursing safety and quality.
