Abstract

Purpose : This study was conducted to identify the relationship between transition shock and intention to stay among newly graduated nurses and the mediating effect of positive psychological capital. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study that included a total of 155 newly graduated nurses at one hospital, recruited from June to September 2023. The data were analyzed using SPSS 27.0 and SPSS PROCESS macro model 4. Results: There were significant relationships between transition shock and intention to stay (r=-.47, p <.001), transition shock and positive psychological capital (r=-.64, p <.001), and positive psychological capital and intention to stay (r=.51, p <.001). Positive psychological capital showed a mediating effect in the relationship between transition shock and intention to stay among newly graduated nurses. Conclusion: These results indicated that transition shock directly affected newly graduated nurses' intention to stay, indirectly affecting it through positive psychological capital. Therefore, programs and strategies to reduce transition shock and increase positive psychological capital are needed in order to improve newly graduated nurses' intention to stay.
