Purpose To identify the mediating effect of the communication competence on the relationship between emotional intelligence and nursing managerial competence among experienced nurses. Methods A total of 186 nurses with more than 10 years of experience working in six general hospitals participated. Data were collected using a selfreported questionnaire and analyzed using SPSS Statistics ver. 23.0 and SPSS Process Macro for descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), Scheffé test, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, multiple regression analysis, and bootstrapping method. Results Nursing managerial competence was significantly associated with emotional intelligence (r=.32, p<.001) and communication competence (r=.42, p<.001). Additionally, communication competence had a complete mediating effect on the relationship between emotional intelligence and nursing managerial competence (indirect effect=0.45, boot SE=0.11, 95% boot CI=[0.25, 0.67]). Conclusion Strategies for enhancing the experienced nurses’ nursing managerial competence should be considered to improve communication competence as well as emotional intelligence and develop nursing managerial competency-related education programs by career stages. In particular, the nursing management competency-related education should focus on improving human resource management and planning competences.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship among turnover intention, emotional labor, and communication competence in nurses. METHODS The participants for this study were 297 nurses from three general hospitals in two local cites in Korea. Data were collected by self-administered questionnaires from August 26 to September 10, 2013 and analyzed using descriptive statistics, One-way ANOVA, t-test, Pearson Correlation, Stepwise Multiple Regression with the SPSS/WIN 18.0 program. RESULTS The average scores for turnover intention, emotional labor, and communication competence respectively, were 3.45, 3.08, and 3.44 out of 5. The novices recognized that their emotional labor and turnover intention were significantly higher, and their communication competence was lower than other nurses. Nurses' turnover intention had a positive relationship with their emotional labor, but no relationship with communication competence. Job satisfaction, frequency of emotional expression, and emotional dissonance had an effect on nurses' turnover intention. CONCLUSION The results show that emotional labor and job satisfaction are very important factors affecting nurses' turnover intention. So, nurse managers should try to minimize nurses' emotional labor and maximize their job satisfaction by developing various human relationship educational and support programs and using them.
