To examine the mediating effect of general self-efficacy on the relationship between the source of meaning in life (SML) and prosocial behaviours in vocational college nursing students.
Between March and June 2019, a cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted, and 799 nursing students from three vocational colleges completed the Source of Meaning in Life Scale, General Self-Efficacy Scale and Prosocial Behaviours Scale. Data were analyzed using structural equation modelling and statistical analysis by SPSS (version 23.0, IBM).
The average SML, general self-efficacy and prosocial behaviours scores of the 799 nursing students were 6.43±0.83, 2.48±0.59 and 3.69±0.62, respectively. Correlation analysis showed that SML, general self-efficacy and prosocial behaviours were positively correlated (P<0.01). General self-efficacy partially mediated the relationship between SML and prosocial behaviours (P<0.01); this mediating effect contributed 22.97% of the total effect and explained 17.6% of the variance in the dependent variable.
Educators should focus on cultivating nursing students' cognition and experience of meaning in life and their efficacy in life, study and work, which can improve students' "people-oriented" service and prosocial behaviour and the quality of nursing services.
探讨一般自我效能感在职业院校护生生活意义源与亲社会行为关系中的中介作用。
2019 年 3 月至 6 月，采用横断面描述性研究方法，选取三所职业院校的 799 名护生作为研究对象，采用生活意义源量表、一般自我效能量表和亲社会行为量表进行调查。采用 SPSS（版本 23.0，IBM）统计软件对数据进行结构方程模型分析和统计学分析。
799 名护生的生活意义源、一般自我效能和亲社会行为得分的平均分分别为 6.43±0.83、2.48±0.59 和 3.69±0.62。相关性分析显示，生活意义源、一般自我效能和亲社会行为呈正相关（P<0.01）。一般自我效能感在生活意义源与亲社会行为之间起部分中介作用（P<0.01）；该中介效应占总效应的 22.97%，解释了因变量方差的 17.6%。
教育者应注重培养护生对生活意义的认知和体验以及其在生活、学习和工作中的效能感，从而提高学生的“以人为本”服务和亲社会行为以及护理服务质量。
