Abstract
To investigate the association between work-family conflicts and career development with resilience among nurses. Nurses tend to have high levels of work-family conflict. Resilience may affect their individual career development, the stability of the nursing team and the quality of nursing care. A cross-sectional survey using correlational design was conducted in mainland China. Data were collected using demographic and career development questionnaire, work-family conflict and resilience scale. A total of 70,932 nurses were included. The total score for work-family conflict was relatively high (38.37±12.82). Work-family conflict of nurses had a significant negative correlation with career development (r=-0.35, p<.001) and with resilience (r=-0.23, p < .001), while resilience had a significant positive correlation with career development (r=0.62, p<.001). Resilience plays a mediating role between work-family conflict and career development. The work-family conflict had a significant negative correlation with career development among nurses. Resilience has a mediating role between work-family conflict and career development. Nursing managers could reduce the level of work-family conflict by enhancing nurses' resilience. Nursing managers should prioritize the improvement of resilience through training and education, enhancing nurses' ability to address work-family conflicts.
