S 특별시 3개 상급 종합병원에 근무 중인 간호사 183명을 연구대상자로 하였으며, 자료수집은 2018년 2월 1일부터 2018년 4월 8일까지 하였다. 유머감각, 낙관성, 간호업무성과는 통계적으로 유의한 상관관계가 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 일반적 특성 중 간호업무성과에 영향을 주는 요인은 교육수준, 교대근무, 경력이었고, 유머감각과 낙관성이 영향을 미쳤다. 이 3개 변수의 설명력은 38.6%로 나타났다. 따라서 임상간호사의 간호업무성과를 향상시키기 위하여 유머감각과 낙관성을 증진할 필요성이 있으며, 본 연구결과가 기초자료로 이용될 수 있을 것이다. 향후 간호사에게 유머감각과 낙관성 증진 프로그램을 적용하여 간호업무성과에 미치는 영향을 규명하는 연구가 필요할 것이다.
