Abstract
Background: Work adjustment and resilience are two crucial components for providing quality services in the nurses, which is influenced by various factors. This study aimed to examine the status of work adjustment and resilience and their relationship with moral intelligence and emotional intelligence among nurses working in educational treatment hospitals of Jiroft University of Medical Sciences in Iran.
Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive-analytical study was conducted in 2024 on 385 nurses. Data were collected using standard questionnaires. Data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple linear regression using SPSS software version 23.
Results: A statistically significant positive correlation was observed between work adjustment and emotional intelligence (p <0.001, r = 0.685) and moral intelligence (p =0.002, r =0.562), as well as between resilience and emotional intelligence (p <0.001, r =0.632) and moral intelligence (p =0.003, r =0.449). According to the results of multiple linear regression, components of emotional intelligence and moral intelligence, including self-awareness, self-management, accountability, compassion, forgiveness, social awareness, honesty, and relationship management, were identified as predictors of work adjustment and resilience among nurses (P <0.05).
Conclusion: A positive and significant correlation was found between work adjustment and resilience with their emotional intelligence and moral intelligence. The components of these two types of intelligence were identified as predictors of work adjustment and resilience among nurses. It is suggested that nursing planners and managers incorporate training in emotional and moral intelligence skills into the continuing education programs for nurses.
