BACKGROUND
The psychological distress of nursing students is ongoing and getting worse during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak. Numerous calls for future research on exploring the effects of perceived social support would be an effective way to improve nursing students' mental health. However, the pathway(s) between perceived social support and psychological wellbeing (PWB) remain unknown.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to explore how self-compassion and professional self-concept mediate the relationship between perceived social support and PWB to explain the theoretical mechanisms of the relationship.
DESIGN
This study is the analytical cross-sectional research based on online self-reports and completed validated measures of perceived social support, PWB, self-compassion, and professional self-concept.
METHODS
The Structural Equation Model (SEM) was used to estimate the mediation effects on the relationship between perceived social support and PWB. To examine the directionality of effects, this study also tested the reverse serial mediation model. Multigroup SEM was used to test gender differences in the mediation model.
RESULTS
The results of an empirical study involving 487 undergraduate nursing students verified an integrative model of social support. In addition, no gender difference was found in these associations. These findings suggest that self-compassion and professional self-concept accounted for the association between perceived social support and PWB, and self-compassion was a significant predictor of professional self-concept.
CONCLUSION
There is a pathway of self-compassion and professional self-concept through which perceived social support may improve PWB. Also, improving nursing students' perceived social support, self-compassion and professional self-concept are beneficial for promoting their mental health. It is meaningful for nursing educators to take measures to develop nursing students' PWB and enhance their professional self-concept.
背景
在2019年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）疫情爆发期间，护理专业学生的心理困扰持续存在且日益严重。众多呼吁开展未来研究以探索感知社会支持的影响，这将是改善护理专业学生心理健康的有效途径。然而，感知社会支持与心理健康之间的途径仍不明确。
目的
本研究旨在探讨自我同情和职业自我概念如何在感知社会支持与心理健康之间起中介作用，以解释这种关系的理论机制。
设计
本研究是基于在线自我报告的分析性横断面研究，并完成了关于感知社会支持、心理健康、自我同情和职业自我概念的有效测量。
方法
采用结构方程模型（SEM）来估计感知社会支持与心理健康之间关系的中介效应。为了检验效应的方向性，本研究还测试了反向序列中介模型。多组SEM用于检验中介模型中的性别差异。
结果
一项涉及487名本科护理专业学生的实证研究结果验证了社会支持的综合模型。此外，在这些关联中未发现性别差异。这些发现表明，自我同情和职业自我概念解释了感知社会支持与心理健康之间的关联，且自我同情是职业自我概念的重要预测因素。
结论
存在一条通过自我同情和职业自我概念的途径，感知社会支持可能通过该途径改善心理健康。此外，提高护理专业学生的感知社会支持、自我同情和职业自我概念有利于促进他们的心理健康。护理教育工作者采取措施培养护理专业学生的心理健康并增强他们的职业自我概念具有重要意义。
