Abstract:
Objective:To understand the status quo of challenge-hindrance stressors in nurses of ClassⅢ general hospitals and their effects on work engagement, so as to provide guidance for nursing managers to formulate stressor coping strategies.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional survey. From October to December 2020, the convenience sampling method was used to select 1 ClassⅢ general hospital in Shanghai, Anhui Province, and Zhejiang Province, respectively. Cluster sampling was performed by department, and a total of 1 257 nurses were selected. Nurses were surveyed using general information, Challenge-Hindrance Stressor Scale (CHSS) , Recovery Experience Questionnaire (REQ) , Calling Questionnaire and Utrecht Work Engagement Scale-9 (UWES-9) . A total of 1 133 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 90.14%.Results:The total score of challenging stressors of 1 133 nurses was (22.51±4.08) , the total score of hindrance stressors was (19.46±4.33) and the total score of UWES-9 was (42.24±10.54) . The results of path analysis showed that job mission completely mediated the relationship between challenging stressors and job engagement. Hindering stressors directly negatively predicted job engagement and recovery experience and occupational mission played a partial mediating role between them. The recovery experience had a higher mediating effect than occupational mission ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The challenging stressors for nurses in tertiary general hospitals are at an upper-middle level and the hindrance stressors were at a moderate level. Managers should distinguish the attributes of stressors and improve work engagement of nurses according to different action paths.
