Box: 1982, Dammam, 31441, Saudi Arabia, Tel +1 966 503 949331, Email haalmulla@iau.edu.saPurpose: This study examines the relationship between the perceived levels of resilience and self-efficacy among a selected sample of pediatric nurses working in the Eastern province of Saudi Arabia.Patients and Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional, correlational design was used. A total of 99 pediatric nurses from two governmental hospitals in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia completed an online survey which included two standardized measures: The Brief Resilience Scale (BRS) and the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSE).Results: The nurses reported an overall moderate resilience level (M = 19.3, SD = 2.6) and moderate general self-efficacy level (M = 32.1, SD = 4.9). The Spearman’s Correlation test revealed a significant positive correlation between perceived self-efficacy and resilience (rho = 0.19, P < 0.05). This indicates that pediatric nurses who reported having higher levels of perceived self-efficacy would also have higher levels of resilience.Conclusion: Nursing plays a vital role in the healthcare system and requires ongoing development. It is essential for nurses to cultivate resilience skills, which are crucial for reducing turnover, burnout, and empathy fatigue.Keywords: resilience, self-efficacy, pediatric, quantitative, cross-sectional, nursing |
