Abstract
Purpose: This study was conducted to identify the mediating effect of happiness on the relationship between gratitude disposition and psychological well-being among nurses working at general hospitals. Methods: The participants were 200 nurses working at general hospitals. A structured questionnaire was administered, and data were collected from November 20, 2020 to December 10, 2020. Data were analyzed using hierarchical linear regression with SPSS for Windows 25.0. Results: Gratitude disposition (β=.62, p<.001) and happiness (β=.66, p<.001) were identified as significant predictors of the psychological well-being of clinical nurses. These variables explained 64% of the variance in nurse’s psychological well-being. Moreover, happiness had a partial mediating effect on the relationship between gratitude disposition and psychological well-being. Conclusion: In order to improve the psychological well-being of clinical nurses, an emotion management program related to gratitude disposition and happiness should be developed and provided.
