Abstract:
Objective To explore the mediating effect of job crafting between career capital and work engagement among emergency specialist nurses from the perspective of job demand-resource theory,so as to provide a basis for training high-quality specialist nurses and improving their work engagement level.Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted among 1 035 emergency specialist nurses in 63 hospitals in China from February to April 2023 by quota sampling.They were investigated with general information questionnaire,work engagement scale,career capital scale and job crafting scale.The structural equation model was used to analyze the mediating effect of emergency specialist nurses'job crafting between career capital and work engagement.Results 963 nurses participated in the survey.The total scores of work engagement scale,career capital scale,job crafting scale were 48.50±12.36 points,56.37±7.72 points,91.18±10.96 points,which were all above the medium level.Career capital has a positive effect on work engagement(β=0.54,P＜0.001),and job crafting has a positive effect on work engagement(β=0.24,P＜0.001).Emergency specialist nurses'job crafting had an indirect effect on career capital and work engagement(effect value 0.19),accounting for 26.23％of the total effect.Conclusion Emergency specialist nurses'job crafting is a mediator between career capital and work engagement.Nursing managers should pay attention to the career capital accumulation of emergency specialist nurses in the process of specialty training,and explore ways to produce positive job crafting behavior,thus further improving the work engagement level.
