Aim To propose a theoretical model of intention to stay (ITS) and examine the effects of perceived organizational support, job control and job satisfaction on ITS. Design Cross‐sectional multicentre survey. Methods The survey was conducted from January 2017‒July 2017 and comprised 3,240 clinical nurses from nine tertiary hospitals in eastern, central and western China, with 2,352 effective responses. Structural equation modelling was used to analyse the relationship between ITS and its correlative factors. Results The hypothesized model was supported. Job control, perceived organizational support and job satisfaction significantly and directly affected nurses' ITS. Furthermore, job control and perceived organizational support showed indirect effects on ITS, which was mediated by job satisfaction. Perceived organizational support could positively influence job control to have a further impact on job satisfaction and ITS. Conclusion Based on a large sample of Chinese tertiary hospital nurses, this study proposed and verified a theoretical model of nurses' ITS, revealing that organization characteristics, work characteristics and affective response to work can have an impact on ITS. Impact This study was the first to examine the relationships among perceived organizational support, job control, job satisfaction and ITS, enriching the theoretical model of ITS. Nurse managers can improve nurses' ITS by enhancing their perceived organizational support, job control and job satisfaction.

Aim:To explore the serial-multiple mediation of job control and perceived organisational innovation climate between psychological capital and innovation behaviour among Chinese nurses through structural equation modelling.Background: Nurses' innovation not only promotes the development of the nursing industry but also improves the quality of care and promotes patient prognosis. Thus, it is essential to clarify the factors affecting nurses' innovative behaviour and to provide a theoretical basis for improving nurses' innovative behaviour. Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted among 4,677 Chinese nurses from 18 hospitals. The PCQ-R, Nurses' Job Control Scale, the Nurses' Organizational Innovation Climate Scale, and the Nurses' Innovation Behaviour Scale were used to conduct a questionnaire survey.Results: According to the serial-multiple mediation, the mediating role of job control and perceived organisational innovation climate between psychological capital and innovative behaviour is significant. (Z = 7.25, p < .05). Conclusions:Higher psychological capital can promote nurses' innovation behaviour.Therefore, improving psychological capital can enhance the innovation behaviour of nurses. Implications for Nursing Management:It is essential to change hospital working environments for enhancing the innovation behaviour of health professionals. Managers could promote nurses' innovative behaviour by strengthening nurses' psychological capital.

Aim: This article describes innovative experiences of nurses during clinical work and identifies the factors promoting and hindering clinical innovation.Background: The nursing staff is replete with innovations in providing medical and healthcare that can help nurses solve clinical problems. Nurses need to understand their experiences in the creation and identify the factors that facilitate or hinder clinical innovation.Methods: A semi-structured interview question framework was used to explore nurses' innovation patents, particularly the development of innovative ideas and the difficulties encountered in innovation. From 15 December 2021 to 17 February 2022, 14 nurses with innovation experiences were recruited in Shanghai, China, using a snowball sampling method. Interviews were conducted in the participants' native language, Chinese, and the interview records were analysed using Colaizzi phenomenological analysis.Results: This study has formed three main themes which are facilitators (including seven sub-themes), barriers (including two sub-themes) and results of the innovation.Position characteristics, the ability to resolve obstacles in clinical work, peer motivation and pressure urge nurses to have innovative ideas. Self-support and external support helped nurses overcome difficulties in the process of innovation. Technical translation and seeking professional assistance help realize innovative ideas for nurses. However, busy clinical work and limited resources are important barriers to nurse innovation. Conclusion:Innovation in nursing comes from clinical problems, and nurses' creativity in healthcare organizations can promote positive changes in nursing practice.Nurses have carried out many innovative activities during their work, including quite a few aspects of promotion in this process. Some factors have hindered or promoted this innovation process, which is more extensive than in previous studies. Therefore, policymakers, nurse educators and hospital managers should establish an environment conducive to innovation and provide nurses with job flexibility and resources to foster innovation.Implications for Nursing Management: This study suggests that nursing managers should take the initiative to care for nurses, pay attention to their contributions to

A new concept of the thin-film heads for magnetic recording introduced in this paper is to use the superconductive film as a perfect diamagnet to be the gap medium between the two magnetic poles of a thin-film ring head for the longitudinal magnetic recording. By using the finite-element method, the magnetic field and its distribution for the new designed ring head with a single-layer superconductive film or multilayer structure as the medium between the magnetic poles is calculated. The results show that the diamagnetic film in the gap not only increases the amplitude of the magnetic field in front of the magnetic poles, but also makes the distribution of the magnetic field much sharper, and the amplitude of the field is less influenced by the throat height of the pole tip as wen.

The experiment results of the large scale model of a thin film head mentioned in this ~per show that the valuse of both longi tudinal and perpendicular components of the useful recording flux density of the thin film head will. a Y-Ba4::u oxide superc:onductive gap between its magnetic poles are obviously lar-ger than that of the head with an air gal'. It means that the effect of the superconductive gap is of enhancing the head sensitivity.
