Abstract

Aims: To investigate the simultaneous effects of ethical sensitivity and career calling on intensive care nurses' decision-making ability.

Methods: A total 361 intensive care nurses in Hubei Province were selected as survey subjects. The survey employed a general information questionnaire, a nurse career calling scale, a Chinese version of the nursing ethics decision-making ability questionnaire, and an ethics sensitivity questionnaire. A structural equation model was constructed using the AMOS software.

Results: The ethical decision-making ability of intensive care nurses earned a score of (267.62 ± 28.15). Ethical sensitivity (r = 0.584, p < 0.001) and career calling (r = 0.566, p < 0.001) positively correlated with ethical decision-making ability in nursing. Career calling partially mediates between ethical sensitivity and nursing ethical decision-making ability, with a mediation effect of 0.246.

Conclusion: Intensive care nurses exhibited moderate ethical decision-making ability and require further improvement. Career calling partly mediates between moral sensitivity and nursing ethical decision-making ability. Enhancing ethical sensitivity and career calling can help improve ethical decision-making ability among intensive care nurses.

职业召唤、伦理敏感性与重症护士决策能力：一个中介效应模型。

目的：探讨伦理敏感性和职业召唤对重症监护护士决策能力的影响。方法：选取湖北省361名重症监护护士作为调查对象。调查采用一般信息问卷、护士职业召唤量表、中文版护理伦理决策能力问卷和伦理敏感性问卷。利用AMOS软件建立了结构方程模型。结果：重症监护护士伦理决策能力得分为（267.62 ± 28.15）分。伦理敏感性（r = 0.584,p r = 0.566,p ）结论：重症监护护士具有中等的伦理决策能力，有待进一步提高。职业召唤在道德敏感性和护理伦理决策能力之间起部分中介作用。提高伦理敏感性和职业召唤有助于提高重症监护护士的伦理决策能力。

期刊介绍： Frontiers in Psychology is the largest journal in its field, publishing rigorously peer-reviewed research across the psychological sciences, from clinical research to cognitive science, from perception to consciousness, from imaging studies to human factors, and from animal cognition to social psychology. Field Chief Editor Axel Cleeremans at the Free University of Brussels is supported by an outstanding Editorial Board of international researchers. This multidisciplinary open-access journal is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries to researchers, academics, clinicians and the public worldwide. The journal publishes the best research across the entire field of psychology. Today, psychological science is becoming increasingly important at all levels of society, from the treatment of clinical disorders to our basic understanding of how the mind works. It is highly interdisciplinary, borrowing questions from philosophy, methods from neuroscience and insights from clinical practice - all in the goal of furthering our grasp of human nature and society, as well as our ability to develop new intervention methods.
