ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To determine the structural relationships among nurses' occupational burnout, job stress, psychological capital, and perceived support from society.DESIGN:
A cross-sectional design was performed to collect data from 766 registered nurses in three general tertiary Class A hospitals from March to August 2018.METHODS:
Structural equation modeling was performed to examine the proposed model.FINDINGS:
The research data supported the proposed model. Psychological capital, job stress, and perceived social support significantly influenced occupational burnout. Job stress indirectly influenced burnout through perceived social support and psychological capital. The influencing factors accounted for 49% of the variance in explaining burnout.CONCLUSIONS:
The findings identified structural relationships among the four studied variables. This study provides new information regarding the preventive role of perceived social support and psychological capital, which perform the mediating role between job stress and occupational burnout. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Nursing administrators should provide a healthy work environment, effective psychological capital training, and assistance to reduce nurses' occupational burnout.Keywords
