文摘BACKGROUND Death anxiety(DA)is a prevalent psychological challenge among oncology nurses that affects their emotional well-being and professional competence in coping with death-related situations.Death-related attitudes and resilience are critical factors that may mediate the relationship between DA and coping with death competence(CDC).However,few studies have examined the chain-mediating effect of these factors among Chinese oncology nurses.This study aimed to investigate the association between DA and CDC among Chinese oncology nurses,with a focus on the mediating roles of death attitude and resilience.AIM To investigate the association between DA and CDC among Chinese oncology nurses.using an electronic questionnaire distributed in Wenjuanxing,China.In total,615 valid responses were obtained.The participants completed the Templer death anxiety scale,death attitude profile-revised,Connor-Davidson resilience scale,and coping with death scale.A chain mediation analysis was performed using the PROCESS macro in SPSS to examine the relationships between these variables.RESULTS The findings indicated that DA had a significant direct effect on CDC[effect=0.201,95%confidence interval(CI):0.112-0.322].In addition to this direct effect,three significant indirect pathways were observed:(1)Death attitude(effect=0.118,95%CI:0.056-0.163);(2)Resilience(effect=0.108,95%CI:0.032-0.176);and(3)A sequential mediation pathway involving both death attitude and resilience(effect=0.071,95%CI:0.042-0.123).The total indirect effects of the three mediation paths accounted for 29.7%of the relationship between DA and CDC.CONCLUSION Using a chain mediation model,this study explored the mechanisms linking DA,death attitude,resilience,and CDC among Chinese oncology nurses.These findings highlighted the crucial role of death attitude and resilience in mediating the relationship between DA and CDC.Interventions aimed at fostering adaptive attitudes toward death and enhancing resilience may improve nurses’ability to cope with death-related stressors,ultimately benefiting their psychological well-being and professional competence.

文摘This study explored the mediating role of moral courage in the relationship between emotional intelligence and perceptions of patient safety competence among nursing students in clinical practice.The study sample comprised 220 nursing students from a teaching hospital(female=93.6%;mean age=20.64 years,SD=1.78 years).Nursing students completed standardized measures of Emotional Intelligence Scale,the Moral Courage Scale,and the Health Professional Education in Patient Safety Survey.Following hierarchical regression analysis and bootstrap analysis,the results showed that emotional intelligence and moral courage significantly predicted high levels of the perceptions of patient safety competence among nursing students in clinical practice.Moreover,moral courage partially mediated the relationship emotional intelligence and perceptions of patient safety competence.The results indicate measures focused on improving emotional intelligence and moral courage levels among nursing students in clinical practice will be effective at increasing their perceptions of patient safety competence.
文摘This study investigates the correlation between musical competence and English prosodic production as well as the associations among their internal components.Eighty Chinese EFL learners in college took the musical perception test,musical production test and English prosodic production test in sequence.In order to take a closer look at the prosodic performance,taking native English speakers as a reference,we also conducted an in-depth acoustic analysis of the English prosody produced by six cases in both high and low musical competence groups with the aid of Praat and ToBI.Our results indicate that students with high musical competence tend to outperform those with low musical competence in English prosodic production.However,musical perception competence seems to have a greater correlation with English prosodic competence than musical production competence.In addition,beat alignment or tempo(related to time and stress)could be the most associated component in musical competence with English prosody,while melody in music was double confirmed to be unhelpful.It was also spotted that cases with high musical competence performed more native-like patterns of phrase accent,boundary tones,intonational phrases as well as placement of stress.The results have important theoretical implications for the construct interpretation of musical competence,and also suggest that rhythmic perception training could be the most effective way to transfer music achievement to English speech prosody.
