Abstract:
Objective:To explore the mediating effect of adversity quotient between transition shock and work readiness among newly graduated nurses.Methods:This is a cross-sectional study. From May to June 2021, a total of 242 newly graduated nurses from three ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Shandong Province were selected as the research objects by the convenient sampling method. The general situation questionnaire, Transition Shock Scale of Newly Graduated Nurses (TSS-NGN) , The Adversity Response Profile (ARP) and Work Readiness Scale for Graduate Nurses (WRS-GN) were used to survey. Pearson correlation analysis was used to test the correlation between transition shock, adversity quotient and work readiness AMOS 23.0 was used to establish the structural equation model. A total of 242 nurses were investigated in this study. 228 valid questionnaires were collected, and the effective recovery rate was 94.21%.Results:Among 228 newly graduated nurses, the total scores of work readiness, transition shock and adversity quotient were respectively (279.04±47.73) , (81.43±22.22) and (132.39±15.00) . Transition shock was negatively correlated with adversity quotient and work readiness ( r=-0.307, -0.291; P<0.01) , and adversity quotient was positively correlated with work readiness ( r=0.339, P<0.01) . The results of structural equation modeling showed that adversity quotient partially mediated between transition shock and work readiness (β=-0.243, P<0.01) , and the mediating effect accounted for 38.76% of the total effect. Conclusions:The work readiness of newly graduated nurses is at the upper middle level. Clinical nursing managers should pay attention to cultivating the adversity quotient of newly graduated nurses, so as to reduce the negative effect of transition shock on their work readiness, in order to realize a good transition from school to clinical nursing work.
