Abstract
- Aim: To evaluate the effects of a WeChat‐based "Three Good Things" on job performance and self‐efficacy of clinical nurses with burnout symptoms. Background: Few studies have valued the impact of nurses' personal strengths and positive work environment on job performance, particularly in developing countries. Methods: A randomized controlled trial. The intervention group (n = 33) participated in WeChat‐based Three Good Things, while the control group (n = 40) did not. Data were collected prior to and immediately after the intervention. WeChat, a popular social software, provides several communicating and recording functions. Results: The main intervention effects and interactions between time and intervention on job performance and self‐efficacy were significant (each p <.05). The main time effects on self‐efficacy were also significant (p <.05). The post‐intervention scores for job performance and self‐efficacy between the two groups were statistically different (each p <.05). The scores for job performance and self‐efficacy of the intervention group were statistically different before and after the intervention (each p <.05). Conclusion: Three Good Things could significantly improve job performance and self‐efficacy of nurses with burnout. Implications for Nursing Management: Nurse managers are recommended to include Three Good Things into their management systems to improve nurses' physical and mental health and work outcomes over the long term.
