This study explores how perceived organizational support for strengths use influences nurses' job performance, specifically examining the mediating effects of control beliefs about stress and optimism.
Identifying factors that enhance job performance is crucial in the demanding field of nursing. Previous research has highlighted the positive impact of perceived organizational support for strengths use on job performance.
Conducted between May and October 2023, this study involved 653 nurses from various hospital settings across three Chinese provinces. A combination of convenience and snowball sampling methods ensured a representative sample. Questionnaires distributed via an online platform measured variables including perceived organizational support for strengths use, control beliefs about stress, optimism, and job performance. Data analysis utilized SPSS-25 and the PROCESS macro, with correlation and regression analyses examining the relationships between perceived organizational support for strengths use, control beliefs about stress, optimism, and job performance.
Perceived organizational support for strengths use positively correlates with control beliefs about stress, optimism, and job performance. Control beliefs about stress and optimism serve as mediators in the relationship between perceived organizational support for strengths use and job performance, both independently and sequentially, with optimism being the more potent mediator.
This study demonstrates that control beliefs about stress and optimism independently and sequentially mediate the relationship between perceived organizational support for strengths use and job performance among nurses.
This research underscores the importance of creating a work environment that leverages nurses' strengths and fosters their ability to manage stress and maintain optimism in the face of workplace challenges. Such an environment can significantly enhance job performance and overall well-being among nurses.
本研究探讨感知到的组织对优势利用的支持如何影响护士的工作绩效,具体考察关于压力的控制信念和乐观主义的中介作用。
在要求苛刻的护理领域,确定提高工作绩效的因素至关重要。先前的研究强调了感知到的组织对优势利用的支持对工作绩效的积极影响。
本研究于2023年5月至10月进行,涉及来自中国三个省份不同医院环境的653名护士。便利抽样和滚雪球抽样方法相结合确保了样本具有代表性。通过在线平台分发的问卷测量了包括感知到的组织对优势利用的支持、关于压力的控制信念、乐观主义和工作绩效等变量。数据分析使用了SPSS - 25和PROCESS宏,通过相关分析和回归分析来检验感知到的组织对优势利用的支持、关于压力的控制信念、乐观主义和工作绩效之间的关系。
感知到的组织对优势利用的支持与关于压力的控制信念、乐观主义和工作绩效呈正相关。关于压力的控制信念和乐观主义在感知到的组织对优势利用的支持与工作绩效的关系中起中介作用,二者既独立又依次起作用,其中乐观主义是更强有力的中介变量。
本研究表明,关于压力的控制信念和乐观主义在护士感知到的组织对优势利用的支持与工作绩效的关系中既独立又依次起中介作用。
本研究强调了营造一个利用护士优势并培养他们应对工作场所挑战时管理压力和保持乐观能力的工作环境的重要性。这样这样这样这样一个环境可以显著提高护士的工作绩效和整体幸福感。
