Introduction: Knowing the other factors affecting the self-efficacy of the nurses working in the critical care unit in the pandemic to manage work-family conflict will guide the strengthening efforts to be made in this regard.
Aim: The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between critical care nurses' self-efficacy in managing work-family conflict, burnout levels and psychological resilience during the pandemic period.
Methods: This descriptive study was conducted with 102 nurses working in the Covid-19 critical care unit in a university hospital during the pandemic period. The research data were collected using the "Personal Information Form", "The Self-Efficacy for Managing Work and Family Conflict Scale", the "Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale" and the "Maslach Burnout Scale". The data were analyzed using SPSS version 22.0.
Results: It was observed that the work-family conflict self-efficacy levels of the nurses participating in the study were moderate (50.27±12.35), and their psychological resilience levels were high (91.73±15.79). When their burnout was evaluated, it was found that "emotional exhaustion" scores were moderate (18.78±7.83), depersonalization scores were low (7.59±4.29) and personal achievement scores were low (13.47±3.32). In addition, burnout was found to be negatively correlated with resilience and self-efficacy in managing work-family conflict, and positively correlated with resilience and self-efficacy in managing work-family conflict.
Conclusion: In order to increase the self-efficacy of critical care nurses to manage work-family conflict, it is recommended to plan interventions that will reduce burnout and increase psychological resilience for nurses.
