ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the status quo of thriving at work, career resilience and voice behavior in organ transplantation nurses, and mediation effects of thriving at work between the latter two.Methods:From June to August 2018,180 nurses with organ transplant qualification departments in two Grade A hospitals in Fuzhou, Fujian Province were investigated by the general situation survey form, Thriving At Work Scale, Career Resilience Scale and Voice Behavior Scale.Results:The scores of thriving at work, career resilience and voice behavior were 3.68 ± 0.65, 3.56 ± 0.61 and 3.42 ± 0.62. There was a pairwise positive correlation among the three: thriving at work, career resilience and voice behavior( r values were 0.270-0.664, all P<0.05). Thriving at work played a partial mediating role between career resilience and voice behavior ( B values were 0.138-0.611, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Ii is necessary to improve thriving at work, career resilience and voice behavior in organ transplantation nurses. Thriving at work is the intermediary factor between the latter two. The improvement of thriving at work and career resilience will help to promote organ transplant specialist nurses to make positive voice behavior.
