Abstract:
Objective:To explore the relationship among emotional intelligence, narrative competence, and clinical communication competence of undergraduate nursing students.Methods:From March to April 2022, 211 undergraduate nursing students from two affiliated hospitals of universities in Dalian were selected as the research subject by convenience sampling. The survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, Emotional Self-Awareness Questionnaire (ESQ), Narrative Competence Scale (NCS), and Clinical Communication Competence Scale of the Nursing Students. SPSS 25.0 software and Process 3.1 plugin were used for mediating effect testing. Multiple linear stratified regression analysis was used to test the moderating effects.Results:A total of 211 questionnaires were distributed and 207 valid questionnaires were obtained. Among 207 undergraduate nursing students, the scores of the ESQ, NCS, and Clinical Communication Competence Scale of the Nursing Students were (124.18±13.22), (140.38±18.70), and (82.88±10.43), respectively. The emotional intelligence, narrative competence, and clinical communication competence of undergraduate nursing students were positively correlated ( P<0.05). The narrative competence of undergraduate nursing students played a complete mediating effect between emotional intelligence and clinical communication competence, with the mediating effect accounting for 72.5% of the total effect. The narrative competence of undergraduate nursing students had a moderating effect on emotional intelligence and clinical communication competence ( P<0.01) . Conclusions:The narrative competence of undergraduate nursing students is a mediating and moderating variable between emotional intelligence and clinical communication competence. Nursing educators should develop targeted interventions to improve students' narrative competence and thus enhance their clinical communication competence.
