Abstract:
Abstract]? Objective? To explore the effects of nurses' sense of meaning in life and psychological resilience on their occupational attitude and provide a basis for finding effective nursing management methods. Methods? Totally 620 nurses from 3 ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Wenzhou were selected by convenient sampling between June and August 2018 and investigated with the General Information Questionnaire, Meaning in Life Scale, Psychological Resilience Scale and Nurse Occupational Attitude Scale. Results? A total of 620 questionnaires were distributed and 613 questionnaires were effectively collected. The nurses' sense of Meaning in Life Scale,Psychological Resilience Scale and Nurse Occupational Attitude Scale scored (47.03±7.18), (115.04±19.28) and (5.06±0.83), respectively. Univariate analysis revealed that there was statistically significant difference in occupational attitude scores between nurses with different gender, educational background, professional title, position and night shift (P＜0.05). The total scores in sense of meaning in life and psychological resilience as well as the scores in various dimensions were positively correlated with their occupational attitude (P＜0.01). Multivariate linear regression analysis was conducted taking the 5 statistically significant variables (gender, educational background, professional title, position and night shift) in univariate analysis as dependent variables and nurses' sense of meaning in life and psychological resilience scores as independent variables. Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that professional title, educational background, position, sense of meaning in life and psychological resilience were the main influencing factors to nurses' occupational attitude (P＜0.01). Conclusions? Nurses' occupational attitude is affected by multiple internal and external factors. Nursing managers should take targeted management measures to enhance nurses' sense of meaning in life and psychological resilience, provide proper guidance and motivation to their occupational attitude, and improve the quality of clinical nursing care.
