There has been some research conducted regarding nurses' career success aimed at exploring its influencing factors, but there is no research on the mechanism of self-identity on the career success of infection control nurses. In order to further explore the formation mechanism of career success of nurses, we conducted our study using the Kaleidoscope Career Model to explore the chain-mediating effects of cognitive emotion regulation and social support between self-identity and career success. Five hundred forty-seven infection control nurses from nine different hospitals participated in the study and completed questionnaires on the self-identity, cognitive emotion regulation, social support, and career success scales. The results from structural equation modeling reveal that self-identity has a positive effect on positive emotion regulation and social support and a negative impact on negative emotion regulation. Positive (negative) emotion regulation has a positive (negative) effect on social support. All antecedents have a positive impact on career success except negative emotion regulation, which has a negative one. Bootstrap analysis shows that the relationship between self-identity and career success is partially mediated by the chain of cognitive emotion regulation and social support. Overall, our research sheds light on the mechanism of self-identity on career success of nurses. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
关于护士职业成功的影响因素已有一些研究，但关于自我认同对感染控制护士职业成功的作用机制尚无研究。为了进一步探究护士职业成功的形成机制，我们采用了“万花筒职业模型”进行研究，以探讨认知情绪调节和社会支持在自我认同与职业成功之间的链式中介效应。来自九家不同医院的547名感染控制护士参与了研究，并完成了关于自我认同、认知情绪调节、社会支持和职业成功量表的问卷调查。结构方程模型的结果显示，自我认同对积极情绪调节和社会支持有正向影响，对消极情绪调节有负向影响。积极（消极）情绪调节对社会支持有正向（负向）影响。除消极情绪调节对职业成功有负面影响外，所有前因变量对职业成功均有正向影响。Bootstrap分析表明，自我认同与职业成功之间的关系部分由认知情绪调节和社会支持的链式中介作用介导。总体而言，我们的研究揭示了自我认同对护士职业成功的作用机制。并讨论了其理论和实践意义。
