Abstract
Organizational psychology applies psychological theories to improve the physical and mental well-being of employees, increase productivity, and improve competitiveness. Accordingly, the authors adopted the interactional and transactional theories of stress to study the effect of the hospital accreditation stressors on the well-being status among nurses mediated by their coping mechanisms. Also, the study will evaluate the moderating effect of supervisory support on this relationship. To achieve these goals, the authors used a cross-sectional, causal, and quantitative methodology with a convenience sample of 416 nurses from several public hospitals from the emirate of Abu Dhabi. The study revealed an insignificant direct effect for accreditation stressors on the well-being status of the nurses. These effects were significant when mediated by the nurse's coping mechanisms. Furthermore, the study revealed insignificant moderation effects for supervisory support on the nurse's coping mechanisms. The outcome of this study could help supervisors and interested researchers fill the gaps related to accreditation stress.
