There were 432 females and 63 males, 170 cases aged<31 years old, 256 cases aged 31-40 years old, and 69 cases aged>40 years old. The score of nurses′ proactive career behavior was (51.28 ± 9.86) points, problem-solving coping strategies was (16.25 ± 2.81) points, and organizational identification was (19.00 ± 4.84) points. The results of single factor analysis showed that nurses′ proactive career behavior was affected by age, title, department and salary satisfaction( F values were 2.20-24.44, all P<0.05), problem-solving coping strategies was affected by title, department and salary satisfaction ( F=5.72, 2.75, 21.30, all P<0.01), organizational identification was affected by salary satisfaction ( F=23.22, P<0.01). Problem-solving coping strategies, organizational identification were positively associated with proactive career behavior( r=0.786, 0.722, both P<0.01). Problem-solving coping strategies had a partial mediating effect between organizational identification and proactive career behavior( β=0.432, P<0.01), and the mediating effect accounted for 64.48% of the total effect. Conclusions:There is still room for improvement of nurses′ proactive career behavior, problem-solving strategies, and organizational identification.
