The aim of this study was to evaluate the mediating role of psychological capital (PCP) in the relationship between occupational stress and turnover intention in nurses.
Data were collected from a sample of 447 nurses working at four Veterans Administration Hospitals throughout South Korea from July 1 to July 31, 2014. We collected data from the nurses using the following surveys: the Short Form Korean-Occupational Stress Scale, the Korean version of the Turnover Intention Scale, and the Korean version of the Psychological Capital Questionnaire. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to examine the mediating role of PCP.
The level of occupational stress was 1.81 ± 0.23, the level of turnover intention was 3.29 ± 0.86, and the PCP level was 3.95 ± 0.52. There were significant correlations among the three variables (occupational stress, turnover intention, and PCP). PCP played a partial mediating role (β=-0.22, p=.008) in the relationship between occupational stress and turnover intention (p<.001) among nurses working at the Veterans Administration Hospitals.
Based on the findings of this study, we recommend that South Korean hospitals offer occupational stress management programs that incorporate relevant programs in efforts to strengthen the overall components of PCP among nurses to reduce turnover intentions. Further studies are required to determine the most effective intervention programs for hospital settings.
本研究旨在评估心理资本（PCP）在护士职业压力与离职意愿关系中的中介作用。
于2014年7月1日至7月31日，从韩国各地四家退伍军人管理医院的447名护士样本中收集数据。我们使用以下调查问卷从护士那里收集数据：韩国版职业压力量表简表、韩国版离职意愿量表以及韩国版心理资本问卷。进行多元线性回归分析以检验PCP的中介作用。
职业压力水平为1.81±0.23，离职意愿水平为3.29±0.86，PCP水平为3.95±0.52。这三个变量（职业压力、离职意愿和PCP）之间存在显著相关性。在退伍军人管理医院工作的护士中，PCP在职业压力与离职意愿的关系中起部分中介作用（β=-0.22，p=0.008）（p<0.001）。
基于本研究结果，我们建议韩国医院提供职业压力管理项目，其中纳入相关项目，以努力增强护士PCP的整体组成部分，从而降低离职意愿。需要进一步研究以确定针对医院环境最有效的干预项目。
