Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the relationship between psychological resilience and turnover intention among pediatric residents during standardized training, with a focus on the mediating role of occupational burnout.Methods:A questionnaire survey was administered in March 2024 to pediatric residents at Children's Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine. The survey utilized the Psychological Capital Scale, Maslach Burnout Inventory, and Turnover Intention Scale. Normally distributed means were compared using t-tests, multicategorical comparisons were conducted using one-way analysis of variance, and correlations were analyzed using Pearson's correlation coefficient. R software was used for both correlation and mediation analyses.Results:The 109 surveyed pediatric residents with an average age of (26.00±2.19) years showed an average occupational burnout score of (53.30±12.18) and an average psychological resilience score of (20.22±5.14). Turnover intention was negatively correlated with psychological resilience ( P<0.05) and positively correlated with occupational burnout, emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal achievement ( P<0.05). Depersonalization and emotional exhaustion dimensions in the Occupational Burnout Scale partially mediated the relationship between psychological resilience and turnover intention, with mediation effects of -0.10 and -0.07, respectively, which accounted for 34.48% and 24.14% of the total effects. Conclusions:Enhancing the psychological resilience of pediatric residents during training may reduce their turnover intention. Depersonalization and emotional exhaustion plays mediating roles.
