A reâexamination of the individual differences approach that explains occupational resilience and psychological adjustment among nurses
Aims
This study reâexamines the validity of a model of occupational resilience for use by nursing managers, which focused on an individual differences approach that explained buffering factors against negative outcomes such as burnout for nurses.
Background
The International Collaboration of Workforce Resilience model (Rees et al., 2015, Frontiers in Psychology, 6, 73) provided initial evidence of its value as a parsimonious model of resilience, and resilience antecedents and outcomes (e.g., burnout). Whether this model's adequacy was largely sample dependent, or a valid explanation of occupational resilience, has been subsequently unâexamined in the literature to date. To address this question, we reâexamined the model with a larger and an entirely new sample of student nurses.
Methods
A sample of nursing students (n = 708, AgeM(SD) = 26.4 (7.7) years), with data examined via a rigorous latent factor structural equation model.
Results
The model upheld many of its relationship predictions following further testing.
Conclusions
The model was able to explain the individual differences, antecedents, and burnoutârelated outcomes, of resilience within a nursing context
A systematic survey of floral nectaries
The construction of classifications, as well as the understanding of biological diversity, depends upon a careful comparison of attributes of the organisms studied (Stuessy, 1990). It is widely known that data from diverse sources showing differences from taxon to taxon are of systematic significance. Dur-ing the 20th century, systematists have emphasized that their discipline involves a synthesis of all knowledge (Stevens, 1994) or, in other words, the variation of as many relevant characters as possible should be incorporated into the natural system to be constructed. The extent to which particular characters are constant or labile will determine their usefulness to syste-matics. In general, more conservative characters will be valuable in defining families and orders, whereas more labile characters may be useful at the ge-neric and specific levels (Webb, 1984). There is no doubt that floral characters are among the most used in the classification of flowering plants. At the same time, they constitute essential features in diagnostic keys to taxa in both taxonomic treatments and Floras (Cronquist, 1981, 1988).Fil: Bernardello, Gabriel Luis Mario.
