Aim To explore the relationship between job burnout and quality of working life, and identify influencing factors of nurses' quality of working life. Background Understanding the influencing factors of quality of working life is important to improve nursing retention strategies. Job burnout can negatively influence work efficiency and quality of work. However, studies examining the association between the two remain limited. Methods The cross‐sectional survey of 2,504 nurses was performed in Eastern China. Nurses were invited to complete self‐report questionnaires online. The collected data were analysed using Pearson's correlation and multiple regression. Results About 64.0% of nurses experienced job burnout, and their quality of working life was at a moderate level. Job burnout, hospital level, age, income, night shift and patient‐to‐nurse ratio were significant factors of quality of working life. Conclusion Job burnout has a negative effect on nurses' quality of working life. Some demographic and work‐related factors should be considered when developing interventions to improve nurses' quality of working life. Implications for Nursing Management Hospital and nurses managers should develop strategies to reduce nurses' job burnout and enhance their quality of working life, such as optimum nurse staffing, offer reasonable pecuniary compensation and establish an appropriate shift work schedule.
Aims To explore the association between cognitive emotion regulation strategies and anxiety and depression among nurses during the COVID‐19 outbreak. Background Nurses play a vital role in responding to the COVID‐19 outbreak, but many of them suffer from psychological problems due to the excessive workload and stress. Understanding the correlation between cognitive emotion regulation strategies and anxiety and depression will promote targeted psychosocial interventions for these affected nurses. Methods This cross‐sectional study of 586 nurses was conducted in Eastern China. Participants completed online questionnaires that investigated anxiety, depression and cognitive emotion regulation strategies. Results The prevalence of nurses' anxiety and depression was 27.6% and 32.8%, respectively. Lower self‐blame, rumination and catastrophizing, as well as greater acceptance and positive refocusing, were related to fewer symptoms of anxiety or depression. Conclusion The cognitive emotion regulation strategies of acceptance and positive refocusing contribute to reducing anxiety or depression. These strategies should be considered when implementing psychotherapeutic interventions to improve nurses' adverse emotional symptoms. Implications for Nursing Management This study highlights the need to assess cognitive emotion regulation strategies use in screening for anxiety and depression. Nurse managers should develop psychosocial interventions including appropriate strategies to help nurses with adverse emotions during a pandemic.
What is known on the subject?• Because of increasingly stressful, dangerous and unpredictable psychiatric nursing work, psychiatric nurses have experienced higher job stress than general ward nurses.• Little is known about the factors that affect the turnover intention of Chinese psychiatric nurses. Understanding the influencing factors of nurses' turnover intention will help to formulate targeted measures to stabilize psychiatric nursing teams. What does this paper add to existing knowledge?• The results showed that 70.2% of psychiatric nurses had higher turnover intention. The strong turnover intention of Chinese psychiatric nurses is a problem that needs to be considered by managers.• The results showed that having more children, between 31 and 39 years old, and having a part-time job were strongly associated with turnover intention. In addition, "job stress" was also an important factor, psychiatric nurses' turnover intention decreased as their job stress level decreased. What are the implications for practice?• Nursing managers should pay attention to nurses who have more children, between 31 and 39 years old, and take on part-time jobs. Additionally, nursing managers should reduce job stress and implement targeted programmes to prevent psychiatric nurses' turnover.• Experience-sharing meetings and mindfulness-based stress reduction training are also useful to improve the mental health status of psychiatric nurses with great job stress. Nursing managers should arrange human resources and shifts appropriately to give nurses with more children more time with their families.Provide more development opportunities for psychiatric nurses between 31 and 39 years old. Managers explore the reasons why nurses take on part-time jobs and take targeted interventions (such as increasing income) to reduce the behaviour that happens.
With the in-depth development of the information age, the Internet is posing a more and more important influence on human society, which, by the meantime, brings about great impact on traditional bank system. Beginning with the definition and characteristics of Internet finance, this paper mainly observes the developmental direction of internet finance and the correlations between the Internet and traditional banking industry. Finally, we put forward its future developing directions.
