Abstract:
Objective:To explore the mediating effect of professional values on the stress overload and professional quality of life in oncology nurses.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 544 oncology nurses from 2 cancer hospitals in Beijing were selected as the research objects. General data questionnaire, Stress Overload Scale (SOS) , The Nurses Professional Values Scale-Revised (NPVSR) , revised version of Nurses Professional Values Scale and Chinese version of Professional Quality of Life Scale were used for questionnaire survey and correlation analysis of the data. AMOS 21.0 software was used to establish a structural equation model to verify the mediating effect.Results:The stress overload score of oncology nurses was 48.00 (36.00, 62.00) , and the professional values score was 102.00 (86.25, 110.00) . The compassion satisfaction score for professional quality of life was 36.00 (31.00, 41.00) , the burnout score was 22.00 (17.00, 26.00) , and the secondary traumatic stress score was 22.00 (19.00, 26.00) . The stress overload of oncology nurses was negatively correlated with professional values, negatively correlated with compassion satisfaction, and positively correlated with job burnout and secondary traumatic stress ( P<0.05) . Structural equation fitting index ( CMIF/ DF) was 0.430, goodness of fit index ( GFI) was 1.000, adjusted goodness of fit index ( AGFI) was 0.995 and root mean square error of approximation ( RMSEA) was 0.000. The stress overload and professional values of oncology nurses had a direct predictive effect on their professional quality of life. The stress overload was mediated by professional values, which indirectly affected compassion satisfaction and job burnout. Conclusions:Nursing managers can enhance their professional values and improve their professional quality of life by reducing the stress overload on oncology nurses.
