Introduction:Nurses are exposed to work-family conflict due to various professional and family responsibilities, which will have many negative consequences on their lives. Examining the related factors for proper planning is one of the priorities of nursing managers. The aim of this study was to determine investigating the relationship between happiness and self-efficacy with work-family conflict in nurses of Birjand teaching hospitals.
Methods: The present study was a cross-sectional descriptive- correlational study in which the studypopulation consisted of nurses working in Birjand teaching hospitals in the second half of 2020. 160 qualified nurses were included in the study through available sampling. To collect data, questionnaires include Nurses' demographic information;Oxford Happiness, Scherer's general self-efficacy and Carlson family-work conflict were used to collect data. Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 19 using descriptive and inferential statistical tests.
Results: In total, 78.1% of the subjects were female, 89.4% were married, and 88.8% were undergraduates with a mean age of 35.69± 5.55 years. The mean of total happiness (37.51 8 8.13) was moderate to low, self-efficacy (46.11 4 4.59) was moderate and work-family conflict (43.72 52 5.52) was moderate. The results showed that happiness and self-efficacy had a significant and inverse relationship with work-family conflict in nurses (p <0.001, r = 0.39) and (r = 0.26, p <0.001). .
Conclusion:Findings of the present study showed that nurses 'self-efficacy and happiness are effective on the rate of work-family conflict and it can be said that with increasing nurses' self-efficacy and happiness, their work-family conflict rate decreases. Therefore, it is suggested that by promoting nurses' self-efficacy and happiness, they reduce the effects of work-family conflict.Introduction:Nurses are exposed to work-family conflict due to various professional and family responsibilities, which will have many negative consequences on their lives.
