| Core Tip |
This study examined the attitudes of oncology specialist nurses in Jiangsu Province toward prescribing authority and analyzed the influencing factors through a structured survey and path analysis. A stratified sampling approach was employed, with 328 valid questionnaires returned (99.70% recovery rate). The findings revealed a moderately high overall score (101.88 ± 15.13) for nurses' beliefs and attitudes toward prescribing authority. Univariate analysis indicated that sex and hospital grade were significantly associated with these attitudes (P < 0.05). Pearson correlation analysis demonstrated strong positive correlations between self-efficacy and both beliefs about prescribing authority (r = 0.4999, P < 0.0001) and professional identity (r = 0.7048, P < 0.05). Additionally, professional identity was positively correlated with beliefs about prescribing authority (r = 0.6209, P < 0.05). Multiple linear regression identified occupational identity and self-efficacy as key influencing factors (P < 0.05). Path analysis using structural equation modeling revealed that self-efficacy significantly and positively impacted both occupational identity and beliefs about prescribing authority, with occupational identity mediating 54.46% of the total effect. The model demonstrated good fit, indicating a robust relationship among these variables. The study concludes that oncology nurses hold positive attitudes toward prescribing authority, with self-efficacy playing a crucial role in shaping these attitudes both directly and indirectly through occupational identity. These findings provide a basis for clinical interventions aimed at enhancing nurses' self-efficacy and professional identity, thereby supporting the effective implementation of prescribing authority policies. |
