Le résumé fourni par la source

PURPOSE: We here examined the relationship between intra-organizational psychological violence and presenteeism among Chinese nurses and the mediating effects of psychological capital on this association. METHODS: This study used a cross-sectional correlational design. Through convenience sampling, 429 nurses from Sichuan and Guizhou provinces in China were enrolled in this study. Nurses who volunteered to participate completed the workplace psychologically violent behaviors instrument, Psychological Capital Questionnaire, and the Stanford Presenteeism Scale between September and October 2023. The potential mediating effect was explored using the Analysis of Moment Structures 26.0 software and bootstrap method. RESULTS: Among nurses, the scores of workplace psychological violence, presenteeism, and psychological capital were 19.00 (5.50, 35.50), 12.00 (8.00, 16.00) and 90.00 (77.00, 100.00), respectively; all of them were at a moderate level. The workplace psychological violence of the nurses positively affected presenteeism (β = 0.51, p < .001), and psychological capital negatively affected presenteeism (β = -0.68, p < .001). Additionally, psychological capital acted as a mediator of the relationship between workplace psychological violence and presenteeism, with its mediating effect accounting for 44.6 % of the total effect. CONCLUSION: Psychological capital mediated the association between intra-organizational psychological violence and presenteeism.
