“…But, although at marginal level, the relationship between perseverance of effort and resilience is stronger ( ß = 0.355, t = 4.077, p < 0.01) than the relationship between consistency of interest and resilience ( ß = 0.322, t = 3.758, p < 0.01). This finding is in line with Meyer et al (2020) who found a similar result that the relationship of the perseverance of effort and resilience is stronger than the relationship of consistency of interest and resilience of nursing students. It is also in line with Calo et al (2019) and Stoffel and Cain (2018) who argued that resilience is a constituent and inherent attribute of grit.…”

“…Given the empirical evidence that grit and resilience are relatively distinct constructs in positive psychology (Meyer et al , 2020), it seems particularly pertinent to examine them and then study whether they are related to the career success of entrepreneurs. This paper extends the nascent grit literature by relating grit and resilience to entrepreneurial outcomes and specifically to entrepreneurial career success.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the effect of grit (consistency of interest and perseverance of effort) on entrepreneurial career success (career satisfaction, perceived career achievement and perceived financial attainment) through the role of resilience. Design/methodology/approach The study was cross-sectional, and the data were collected using questionnaires from 111 entrepreneurs in Nigeria who have been in business for over five years and were selected using purposive sampling technique. The study used Smart-PLS to assess the measurement and structural model. Findings The perseverance of effort was related to all the aspects of career success as well as resilience. But consistency of interest was positively related to only perceived financial attainment. It also predicted resilience. Resilience was also related to all the facets of career success. All three mediation hypotheses were supported. Research limitations/implications The study delivered fascinating understandings into the structures of grit. The Western conceptualisation of grit may not be valid in a collectivist society where consistency is not that very much considered. Practical implications The study helps to further validate grit in the entrepreneurship field; the construct is a facilitator of entrepreneurial action and an indispensable source of energy that can revitalise the entrepreneur along the arduous road to success. Originality/value The two components of grit can have a dissimilar influence on different outcomes – as prior investigations, although recognising that the two components are conceptually dissimilar, have rarely studied them so empirically.

“…When encountering challenges or disasters, nurses need to delve into high-quality patient care, retain resilience, and process professionally in the face of adversity continually ( Brennan, 2017 ). Generally, a personality trait named grit drives nurses to complete the mission on difficult occasions ( Meyer et al, 2020 ). Gritty people always adopt various strategies to achieve long-term goals and alleviate negative impacts in life ( Blalock et al, 2015 ).…”

Grit is defined as perseverance and passion for long-term goals, and it may affect the stability of the nursing workforce and the physical and mental health of nurses continuously. Meaning in life has received considerable attention from scholars, which is an important component in positive psychology. This study aimed to delve into the relationship between grit and the meaning in life of Chinese nurses. Additionally, we also sought to prove the chain mediating effect of social support and hope on this relationship. An online questionnaire survey was used to collect data from 704 Chinese nurses using the self-made demographic questionnaire with Short Grit Scale (Grit-S), the Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS), Adult Dispositional Hope Scale (ADHS), and Meaning in Life Questionnaire (MLQ). Moreover, Process version 3.3 plug-in SPSS 25 was used to test the mediation effect between variables. The results showed a strong positive relationship between grit and meaning in life and verified the mediating effect of social support and hope on grit and meaning in life. The results also confirmed the chain mediating model between grit, social support, hope, and meaning in life.

“…Some argue that it is a trait, others believe it is a developmental process, while others argue that it is an outcome . Resilience, like grit, is a significant value crucial to the development of nursing education (Meyer et al, 2020). School administrators and nurse educators alike should create a milieu where resilience is nurtured, thus decreasing the unwanted impact of stress and anxiety among students, leading to their optimal well-being and ideal state of mind and body suitable for learning (McDermott et al, 2020).…”

Purpose: This study investigated the relationship between nursing students’ profile variables and their state of mental well-being and resilience during the coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic and how this impacts their understanding of holistic nursing care provision. Design: This study used a cross-sectional design and total enumeration sample ( n = 439) from all enrolled nursing students in the College of Nursing of a state-run university. Method: The 10-item Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) and 14-item Warwick–Edinburgh Mental Well-Being Scale (WEMWBS) were used to collect data from the participants. A correlational analysis was employed to determine the relationship between the responses of the participants to their profile variables. Findings: There were no significant differences in age, gender, and year level in the 10-item CD-RISC and WEMWBS. Regarding the WEMWBS, the mean total score of those with 61–100% of the allowed units was significantly higher than those with 31–60%. Finally, the CD-RISC scores revealed that participants with a general point average (GPA) of A were significantly higher than those with a GPA of B+ or B. Conclusion: Academically performing students (those with a GPA of B and above) are more resilient. In addition, there is an existing linear relationship between high mental well-being and the ability to pursue higher academic loads.
