One of these indicators is Foreign Direct Investment (FDI); which is not only a mechanism that drives competition and economic development, but is also an international capital flow. This paper investigates whether FDI has a mediator role in the relationship between Global Innovation Index (GII) and Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Design/Methodology/Approach: The mediator variable analysis was conducted based on the secondary data of FDI, GII and GDP of 43 countries which has been obtained from the World Bank between 2014 and 2018. Findings: As a result of the analysis, all hypotheses were accepted. Consequently, a positive and significant relationship was found between the Global Innovation Index (GII) and Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and it was found statistically significant that Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has a mediator role in this relationship. Originality: In the literature, there is not any research that explains the role of FDI in the relation between Global Innovation Index (GII) and Gross Domestic Product (GDP). In order to address the gap, this study investigates whether FDI has a mediator role in the relationship between GII and GDP.","PeriodicalId":56177,"journal":{"name":"Gurukul Business Review-GBR","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70565682","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Considering that most studies on work-family conflict and its effects examine individualistic societies, the purpose of this study is to examine the effect of work-family conflict on the turnover intention of nurses in Iran mediated by psychological health and workplace stress. Methodology/ approach: The major research strategy is quantitative, and the primary technique is descriptive-survey analytical. This study examined 274 Covid19 frontline nurses in Iran. Data collected with a five-point Likert scale questionnaire. Confirmatory factor analysis and structural model measurement performed using SEM AMOS 24 software. Findings: The results of data analysis show that work-family conflict negatively affects psychological health while positively affects workplace stress. As well, psychological health reduces the tendency to turnover, while work stress increases turnover intention. The Variables Mediation test found that work-family conflict has an indirect effect on turnover intention. This study helped to comprehend work-family conflict, psychological issues of nurses, and therefore their turnover intention. Practical Implication: Because of the importance of family foundation and the Islamic context, researchers recommend that the health care system devote more attention to nurses' psychological health and personal life during the COVID-19 pandemic. These measures result in a compromise between work and family, resulting in reduced work stress, reduced turnover, and improved psychological well-being. Originality/ Value: It is vital to investigate the consequences of work and personal conflicts of nurses and psychological injuries that threaten people's occupation during COVID-19. The present study is the first research on work-family conflict and its consequences in the COVID-19 crisis in Iran.","PeriodicalId":56177,"journal":{"name":"Gurukul Business Review-GBR","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70565436","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
