Abstract

Background

Burnout among critical care nursing students is a global concern driven by clinical demands, emotional strain, and academic pressure. These stressors negatively impact students’ well-being and career readiness. Building resilience is a promising approach to mitigate stress and reduce burnout, supporting healthier, more sustainable nursing education experiences.

Aim

Assess the mediating role of resilience between clinical practice stressors and burnout among critical care nursing students.

Methods

A cross-sectional descriptive design was used, involving 780 critical care nursing students. Validated instruments were employed, including the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory, Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, and Perceived Stress Scale.

Results

Perceived stress was positively correlated with burnout, while resilience was negatively correlated with burnout. Multivariate regression analysis revealed that stress predicted both burnout and intention to leave, whereas resilience was associated with reduced burnout levels. Resilience partially mediated the stress-burnout relationship.

Conclusion

Resilience plays a crucial protective role against burnout in nursing education. Targeted interventions such as stress management workshops and resilience training should be prioritized by nurse educators and clinical mentors.

临床实习压力源对危重病护生职业倦怠的影响：心理弹性的中介作用

临床需求、情绪紧张和学业压力共同导致重症护理专业学生的职业倦怠是一个全球关注的问题。这些压力源对学生的幸福感和职业准备产生负面影响。建立复原力是一种很有前途的方法，可以减轻压力，减少倦怠，支持更健康、更可持续的护理教育体验。目的探讨心理弹性在临床实习压力源与危重病护生职业倦怠之间的中介作用。方法采用横断面描述性设计，纳入780名危重病护理专业学生。本研究采用了哥本哈根倦怠量表、康纳-戴维森弹性量表和感知压力量表。结果感知压力与倦怠呈显著正相关，心理弹性与倦怠呈显著负相关。多因素回归分析显示，压力预测倦怠和离职意向，而弹性与降低倦怠水平相关。弹性在压力-倦怠关系中起部分中介作用。结论心理弹性在护理教育中对倦怠具有重要的保护作用。有针对性的干预措施，如压力管理研讨会和弹性培训应优先考虑护士教育家和临床导师。
