Purpose This study aimed to investigate the effects of teaching efficacy, perceived organizational support, and occupational stress on burnout among preceptor nurses. Methods: Participants included 156 nurses who had at least one month of preceptor experience within the past year. Data were collected using a structured self-report questionnaire and analyzed with SPSS version 27.0. Descriptive statistics, independent sample t-tests, one-way analysis of variance with Scheffé post-hoc tests, Pearson’s correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis were performed. Results: Occupational stress (β=.36, p<.001) and teaching efficacy (β=-.17, p=.017) were significant predictors of burnout among preceptor nurses, jointly explaining 36.0% of the variance. Conclusion: Occupational stress and teaching efficacy were identified as key determinants of burnout in preceptor nurses. Effective burnout prevention strategies should focus on reducing occupational stress through workload management and strengthening teaching efficacy via continuous training and organizational support.
Purpose This study aimed to explore the mediating role of self-transcendence in the relationship between job stress and wellness among nurses based on self-transcendence theory. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional design was adopted, and data were collected via an online survey using Google Forms from July 22 to August 20, 2024. This study analyzed data from 290 nurses working in 10 hospitals. Correlation and multiple regression analyses were conducted, alongside simple mediation analysis with bootstrapping, to evaluate the mediating role of self-transcendence. All statistical analyses were performed using Jamovi software. Results: Positive correlations were identified among job stress, self-transcendence, and wellness in nurses. Regression analyses revealed that self-transcendence was positively associated with wellness (β=.62, p<.001), while job stress had no significant association with wellness. Mediation analysis demonstrated that self-transcendence significantly mediated the relationship between job stress and wellness (β=.22, p<.001). Conclusion: The findings highlight the influence of self-transcendence on the relationship between job stress and wellness among nurses. This underscores the importance of designing interventions to enhance self-transcendence as a strategy to promote wellness among nurses.
