Abstract:
Objective:To explore the mediation effects of perceived social support and work-family conflict on clinical nurses′ self-efficacy and parenting stress, and to provide theoretical basis for formulating intervention programs for parenting stress.Methods:A total of 631 clinical nurses from 8 grade A hospitals in Anhui Province were selected by convenience sampling method from August to October 2023. A cross-sectional survey was conducted with the general data questionnaire, the Chinese version of Work-Family Behavioral Role Conflict Scale, the Parenting Stress Scale for Clinical Nurses, the Perceptived Social Support Evaluation Scale and the General Self Efficacy Scale to analyze the relationship between perceptive social support, work-family conflict, self-efficacy and parenting stress and the mediating effect.Results:A total of 603 clinical nurses were included, including 9 males and 594 females, aged (35.16 ± 4.59) years. The total scores of work-family conflict, parenting stress, understanding of social support and self-efficacy were (87.10 ± 14.38), (51.00 ± 9.51), (59.91 ± 11.57) and (26.68 ± 6.27) points. The total effect of self-efficacy on parenting stress was - 0.385. The mediating paths of self-efficacy on parenting stress included: self-efficacy→perceived social support→parenting stress; self-efficacy→work-family conflict→parenting stress; self-efficacy→perceived social support→work-family conflict→parenting stress. The three indirect effects accounted for 18.69%, 53.72% and 16.87% of the total effect.Conclusions:Social support and work-family conflict have a chain mediation effect between clinical nurses′self-efficacy and parenting stress. Nursing managers can improve the self-efficacy of clinical nurses and enhance the understanding of social support to help reduce work-family conflict, so as to effectively alleviate the level of child-rearing stress of clinical nurses.
