Abstract: Objective To explore the effect of affective commitment on thriving at work among junior male Nurses. Methods In July 2017, totally 63 junior male nurses from three classⅢ hospitals in Zhejiang province were selected and investigated by Affective Commitment Scale (ACS) and Thriving at Work Scale. Results The mean scores of ACS and thriving at work were (20.29±3.83) and (42.65±5.79). Affective commitment was significantly positive correlated to thriving at work, and its two dimensions (including dynamic dimension and learning dimension) (r=0.364, 0.270, 0.350;P< 0.05). The hierarchical regression analysis showed that the organizational affective commitment can explain 45.20% of the work enthusiasm in junior male nurses. Conclusions Junior male nurses' affective commitment and thriving at work were at a low level. The affective commitment was an important influencing factor of thriving at work.
