The mean score of resilience, job stress, burnout were 2.48, 4.00, and 2.98 respectively.The relation between resilience and burnout was effected with the negative correlation. The explanation power of resilience of clinical nurses on burnout was 24.8%. In conclusion, we found that resilience decreased clinical nurse's burnout. From this result, we suggest resilience improvement programs for clinical nurses will be developed and implemented.
