This study aims to investigate the levels of emotional intelligence, nurses' perceived professional benefits, and spiritual care competency among ICU nurses, explore the correlations among these three variables, and further analyse the mediating role of perceived professional benefits between emotional intelligence and spiritual care competency.
A multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted following the STROBE guidelines.
From January to March 2024, 568 ICU nurses from seven tertiary hospitals in China completed an online questionnaire including demographic items, the Wong and Law Emotional Intelligence Scale, the Nurses' Perceived Professional Benefits Questionnaire, and the Spiritual Care Competency Scale. Data were analysed using SPSS 27.0 and Amos 27.0. Pearson correlation, structural equation modelling (SEM), and bootstrap analysis (5000 samples) were used to test associations and mediation effects.
ICU nurses reported above-average scores in EI, NPPB, and SCC. EI was positively associated with both NPPB and SCC, and NPPB partially mediated the relationship between EI and SCC.
EI significantly contributes to ICU nurses' SCC both directly and indirectly through NPPB. These findings highlight the psychological mechanisms that support competency in spiritual care.
Nursing managers are encouraged to implement structured training programmes focusing on emotional regulation and professional value reinforcement, which may effectively enhance SCC and improve holistic care quality in ICU settings.

本研究旨在调查重症监护病房（ICU）护士的情商水平、护士感知到的职业益处以及精神护理能力，探讨这三个变量之间的相关性，并进一步分析感知到的职业益处在情商和精神护理能力之间的中介作用。
按照STROBE指南进行多中心横断面研究。
2024年1月至3月，来自中国七家三级医院的568名ICU护士完成了一份在线问卷，问卷包括人口统计学项目、王和洛情商量表、护士感知职业益处问卷以及精神护理能力量表。使用SPSS 27.0和Amos 27.0对数据进行分析。采用Pearson相关性分析、结构方程模型（SEM）和Bootstrap分析（5000个样本）来检验关联和中介效应。
ICU护士在情商（EI）、感知到的职业积极效益（NPPB）和精神护理能力（SCC）方面的得分高于平均水平。EI与NPPB和SCC均呈正相关，且NPPB部分介导了EI与SCC之间的关系。
EI通过NPPB直接和间接地对ICU护士的SCC有显著贡献。这些发现突出了支持精神护理能力的心理机制。
鼓励护理管理者实施侧重于情绪调节和职业价值强化的结构化培训计划，这可能有效提高SCC并改善ICU环境中的整体护理质量。
