Purpose This study was done to identify the effect of adversity quotient and reality shock on the turnover intention among new nurses in general hospitals.
Methods: Participants were 158 new nurses in general hospitals. A survey was used and data were collected in April 2019. Data were analyzed using the IBM SPSS/WIN 22.0 program.
Results:The significant predictors for the turnover intention of new nurses were training status (β=.38), age (β=.19) and reality shock (β=.51). These variables explained 46.3% of the variance in turnover intention of nurses. Also, reality shock had a total mediating effect on the relationship between adversity quotient and turnover intention. Conclusion Findings indicate that adversity quotient and reality shock are important factors for turnover intention of new nurses in general hospitals.
