Abstract:
Objective:To explore the mediating effect of work engagement between growth mindset and prone ventilation knowledge, beliefs, and practices among neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) nurses.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to select 360 NICU nurses from 13 tertiary hospitals in Shandong Province between August and December 2023. The study used General Information Surveys, Growth Mindset Assessment Scales, a simplified Work Engagement Scale, and an ICU Staff Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Prone Ventilation Knowledge, Beliefs, and Practices Questionnaire. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the relationship between growth mindset, work engagement, and prone ventilation knowledge, beliefs, and practices. The mediating model was constructed using the PROCESS plugin for SPSS software.Results:A total of 370 questionnaires were distributed, and 360 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 97.3% (360/370). Statistical analysis showed that NICU nurses' growth mindset positively predicted work engagement ( β=0.357, P<0.01) and prone ventilation knowledge, beliefs, and practices ( β=0.736, P<0.01). Work engagement positively predicted prone ventilation knowledge, beliefs, and practices ( β=0.107, P<0.01). Growth mindset had a positive indirect effect on prone ventilation knowledge, beliefs, and practices through work engagement, with an indirect effect of 0.039. Conclusions:NICU nurses' growth mindset positively predicts their prone ventilation knowledge, beliefs, and practices, and can also have an indirect effect through work engagement. Nursing managers should improve NICU nurses' growth mindset using management strategies, optimize resource allocation, and enhance work engagement to improve NICU nurses' prone ventilation knowledge, beliefs, and practices.
