Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the current status of teaching behavior of clinical nursing teachers and explore the mediation effect of organizational commitment between their work engagement and teaching behavior.Methods:This study included a total of 1 736 clinical nursing teachers who worked in grade A tertiary hospitals in Beijing City, Shanghai City, Henan Province, Hubei Province, Hebei Province, and Chongqing City from May 2022 to November 2022. Data were collected using a general information questionnaire, the Effective Teaching Behavior Scale, the Work Engagement Scale, and the Organizational Commitment Scale. Statistical description and correlation analysis were performed using SPSS 25.0 software, and mediation effect was analyzed using AMOS 25.0 software.Results:The total mean score of effective teaching behavior of 1 599 clinical nursing teachers was (4.19±0.66), the total mean score of work engagement was (5.09±1.36), and the total mean score of organizational commitment was (3.93±0.72). Pearson correlation analysis showed that work engagement and organizational commitment were positively correlated with teaching behavior ( r=0.560, 0.519, both P<0.01). Organizational commitment partially mediated the relationship between work engagement and teaching behavior, with a mediation effect value of 0.27, and the mediation effect accounted for 49.10% of the total effect. Conclusions:Work engagement is a direct predictor of the teaching behavior of clinical nursing teachers, and organizational commitment partially mediates the relationship between work engagement and teaching behavior. Administrators can promote the work engagement of clinical nursing teachers by adopting effective interventions to increase the level of organizational commitment, which in turn enhances teaching behavior.
