Abstract

This study is a descriptive research to determine the mediating effect of Positive Psychological Capital on the relationship between Job Stress and Retention Intention among nurses working at blood centers in the metropolitan area. Data were collected from 167 nurses using a structured questionnaire between May 2021 and April 2022, and analyzed by SPSS ver.25. General characteristics were analyzed through frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The relationship between Job Stress and Retention Intention was analyzed using independent samples t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation. Hypotheses were tested using hierarchical multiple regression analysis and PROCESS macro model 4. The results substantiated the hypotheses: Hypothesis 1 proposed that higher Retention Intention and Positive Psychological Capital were associated with lower Job Stress. Hypothesis 2 suggested that Positive Psychological Capital significantly partially mediates the relationship between Retention Intention and Job Stress. To promote Retention Intention among blood center nurses, it is crucial to implement human resource management systems aimed at alleviating Job Stress and enhancing Positive Psychological Capital. Specifically, enhancing Positive Psychological Capital within blood centers is particularly significant. This study contributes empirical evidence necessary for efficient personnel management and competency enhancement programs to reduce Job Stress, thereby enhancing the quality of nursing care among blood center nurses. Furthermore, it is recommended to develop intervention programs for Positive Psychological Capital to enhance Retention Intention and reduce Job Stress among blood center nurses.

본 연구는 수도권 지역 혈액원에서 근무하는 간호사들의 재직의도와 직무스트레스 관계에서 긍정심리자본의 매개 효과를 파악하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 167명의 간호사를 대상으로, 2021년 5월부터 2022년 4월까지 구조화된 설문지를 사용하여 자료수집하였다. 자료는 SPSS ver.25를 이용하였다. 일반적 특성은 빈도와 백분율, 평균과 표준편차를 사용하였으며, 직무스트레스와 재직의도의 관련성은 독립표본 t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's 상관관계로 분석하였다. 가설분석은 위계적 다중회귀분석, PROCESS macro model 4를 사용하였다. 연구결과, 재직의도와 긍정심리자본이 직무스트레스에 음의 영향력을 가진다는 가설1이 지지되었다. 가설2는 재직의도와 직무스트레스 간에 긍정심리자본의 영향성은 부분 간접매개효과가 존재하여 유의미한 매개효과를 제공하고 있는 것으로 증명되었다. 따라서, 혈액원 간호사의 재직의도를 높이기 위하여 직무스트레스 수준을 낮추고 긍정심리자본은 높일 수 있는 인력관리제도가 필요하며, 특히 혈액원에서의 긍정심리자본 수준을 향상시켜야 함을 파악할 수 있었다. 본 연구는 혈액원 간호사의 직무스트레스 수준을 감소시키기 위한 효율적인 인력관리 및 역량강화교육에 필요한 실증적 근거를 마련함으로써 혈액원 간호조직의 성과 및 간호의 질 향상에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다. 또한, 혈액원 간호사의 재직의도를 높이고 직무스트레스를 줄이기 위해 긍정심리자본 중재 프로그램을 개발할 것을 제언한다.
