The relationship between cultural sensitivity and self-esteem among nurses in neonatal intensive care units is critical to job satisfaction and patient care quality.
A cross-sectional study was conducted from February to March 2024 on 223 nurses in neonatal intensive care units. Data were collected using Intercultural Sensitivity Scale and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale.
The study found that nurses had a moderate level of cultural sensitivity ( = 78.3, = 9.4) and self-esteem ( = 24.8, = 1.0). A weak positive correlation was observed between cultural sensitivity and self-esteem ( = .26, < .01). In addition, cultural sensitivity was found as a predictor of self-esteem ( < .05).
Findings highlight the positive relationship between cultural sensitivity and self-esteem among NICU nurses, suggesting that enhancing cultural sensitivity could improve self-esteem and job satisfaction.
新生儿重症监护病房护士的文化敏感性与自尊之间的关系对于工作满意度和患者护理质量至关重要。
2024年2月至3月对223名新生儿重症监护病房护士进行了一项横断面研究。使用跨文化敏感度量表和罗森伯格自尊量表收集数据。
研究发现护士的文化敏感性处于中等水平（均值=78.3，标准差=9.4），自尊水平也处于中等水平（均值=24.8，标准差=1.0）。文化敏感性与自尊之间存在弱正相关（相关系数=0.26，p<0.01）。此外，文化敏感性被发现是自尊的一个预测因素（p<0.05）。
研究结果突出了新生儿重症监护病房护士文化敏感性与自尊之间的积极关系，表明提高文化敏感性可以提升自尊和工作满意度。
