Abstract

Objectives: This study investigates how nurse supervisors' Dark Triad personality traits (Machiavellianism, narcissism, psychopathy) influence nurses' task performance, mediated by perceptions of enriched work design (autonomy, task variety, social support, safe work conditions, feedback quality) and psychological safety.

Methods: A multisource approach was used to collect data from 256 manager-nurse dyads across various healthcare settings. Nurses completed surveys assessing their work design and psychological safety. Managers completed a self-assessment of Dark Triad traits and rated their nurse subordinates' task performance. Confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling (SEM) were used for analysis.

Results: Supervisors' Dark Triad traits core component impacted nurses' task performance indirectly, mediated by psychological safety and nurses' perceptions of their enriched work design. Psychopathic traits revealed a significant direct negative effect on nurses' performance, while other Dark Triad traits did not show direct effects.

Conclusion: This study sheds light on key factors influencing nurses' performance, offering insights for healthcare organizations aiming to optimize work environments and improve team effectiveness.

心理安全和工作设计是主管的黑三角特质对护士任务绩效影响的中介。

研究目的本研究调查了护士长的黑暗三合会人格特质（马基雅维利主义、自恋、心理变态）如何影响护士的任务绩效，并通过对丰富的工作设计（自主性、任务多样性、社会支持、安全的工作条件、反馈质量）和心理安全的感知进行调节：方法：采用多来源方法，从不同医疗机构的 256 个管理者-护士二元组中收集数据。护士填写了工作设计和心理安全评估调查表。管理者完成了 "黑暗三合会 "特质的自我评估，并对其护士下属的任务表现进行了评分。分析采用了确认因素分析和结构方程模型（SEM）：结果：主管人员的黑暗三合会特质核心成分间接影响了护士的任务绩效，而心理安全和护士对其丰富工作设计的看法则起到了中介作用。精神变态特质对护士的工作表现有显著的直接负面影响，而其他黑暗三合会特质则没有直接影响：本研究揭示了影响护士绩效的关键因素，为医疗机构优化工作环境、提高团队效率提供了启示。
