The mediating effect of ego-resiliency between perceived stress and occupational commitment in newly graduated nurses
Objective To explore the mediating effect of ego-resiliency between perceived stress and occupational commitment in newly graduated nurse.Methods Convenience sampling were used to recruit 341 newly graduated nurses from three tertiary general hospitals in Shaanxi and Jilin provinces in February 2023.The General information questionnaire,Chinese version of Perceived Stress Scale,Ego-resiliency Scale and Measurement of Occupation Commitment were employed for investigation.Results The score of perceived stress,ego-resiliency and occupational commitment was(20.54±5.78)(39.19±8.67)and(80.13±14.53),respectively.The ego-resiliency of new nurses in this group was negatively correlated with perceived stress(r=-0.196,P<0.001)and positively correlated with occupational commitment(r=0.240,P<0.001).Perceived stress was negatively correlated with occupational commitment(r=-0.482,P<0.001).Ego-resiliency mediated the relationship between perceived stress and occupational commitment(β=0.031,P<0.05).Conclusion Ego-resiliency can regulate the relationship between perceived stress and occupational commitment of newly recruited nurses,which provides a new idea for nursing managers to improve the level of occupational commitment of newly recruited nurses in the future.
