Abstract
Objective: To investigate the status and influencing factors of self-compassion in oncology nurses. Methods: From November to December 2024, 263 oncology nurses from 6 Grade A hospitals in Guangdong Province were selected as the research objects by convenience sampling. The general information questionnaire, Self-Compassion Scale, Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-2nd Edition, and Perceived Organizational Support Scale were used for online questionnaire survey. Results: The total score of self-compassion Scale for Oncology nurses was 85.82 ± 12.93, which was in the upper middle level. The results of multivariate analysis showed that marital status, psychological flexibility and organizational support were the influencing factors of self-compassion of oncology nurses. Conclusions: The self-compassion level of oncology nurses is above the medium level. It is suggested that nursing managers focus on the psychological flexibility of oncology nurses and strengthen the internal psychological efficacy of nurses through institutional guarantee, resource allocation and emotional identification, so as to form an “individual-organization” linkage health promotion model and enhance the self-compassion level of nurses.
