Abstract

The aims of the research were to investigate the mediating effect of emotional intelligence and the moderating effect of disgust sensitivity on the relationship between proactive personality and caring behavior among clinical nurses. A cross‐sectional design while adhering to STROBE guidelines was used for this study. Three hundred ninety‐three purposely selected nurses from three tertiary general hospitals completed an online survey. Measures included proactive personality, emotional intelligence, disgust sensitivity, and caring behavior. The findings showed that proactive personality positively predicted nurses' caring behavior, and that emotional intelligence played a mediating role in the relationship between proactive personality and caring behavior. Disgust sensitivity indirectly and negatively moderated the impact of proactive personality on nurses' caring behavior mainly in the second half of this moderated relationship. The findings underscore that the nursing managers may consider incorporating emotional intelligence topic in practical nursing skills training and improving nurses' ability to control their disgust sensitivity can improve their professional behavior, thus to provide patients with high‐quality nursing services.

临床护士的积极主动性格与护理行为：情商与厌恶敏感性的调节中介模型

本研究旨在探讨情商的中介效应和厌恶敏感性的调节效应对临床护士积极主动人格和护理行为之间关系的影响。本研究采用横断面设计，同时遵守 STROBE 准则。从三家三级综合医院特意挑选的 393 名护士完成了在线调查。测量指标包括积极主动型人格、情商、厌恶敏感性和关怀行为。调查结果显示，积极主动型人格对护士的关怀行为有积极的预测作用，而情商在积极主动型人格与关怀行为之间起着中介作用。厌恶敏感性间接且消极地调节了积极主动型人格对护士关怀行为的影响，主要体现在调节关系的后半部分。研究结果强调，护理管理者可考虑在实际护理技能培训中加入情商课题，提高护士控制厌恶敏感性的能力，从而改善护士的职业行为，为患者提供高质量的护理服务。
