Abstract: Objective To investigate the work-family behavior role conflict,psychological capital and occupational burnout of operating room nurses,study their correlation,and provide reference for alleviating occupational burnout among operating room nurses. Methods From August to October 2024,194 operating room nurses from 5 tertiary general hospitals in Zhangjiakou were selected by simple random sampling. The work-family behavior role conflict scale,psychological capital scale and occupational burnout scale were used to assess their work-family behavior role conflict,psychological capital and occupational burnout status. The differences in role conflict,psychological capital and occupational burnout scores among different influencing factors were compared and their correlation was analyzed. Results The scores of work-family behavior role conflict,psychological capital and occupational burnout of operating room nurses were (83.42±14.76),(91.48±16.82) and (61.36±13.58)points,respectively.The influencing factors of occupational burnout scores of operating room nurses were age,length of service,professional title,marital status,average monthly income,average weekly working hours and average number of night shifts per month(all P<0.05). The influencing factors of work-family role conflict and psychological capital score were age,length of service,professional title,average monthly income,average weekly working hours,and average number of night shifts per month(all P<0.05). The burnout score of operating room nurses was positively correlated with the work-family role conflict score(r=0.538,P<0.01),and negatively correlated with psychological capital(r=-0.492,P<0.01). The work-family role conflict was negatively correlated with psychological capital(r=-0.485,P<0.01). The psychological capital of operating room nurses had a partial mediating effect between work-family role conflict and job burnout,with a mediating effect of 0.273,accounting for 46.68% of the total effect. Conclusion The occupational burnout of operating room nurses is positively correlated with work-family behavioral role conflict and negatively correlated with psychological capital. Psychological capital can reduce the impact of work-family behavioral role conflict on occupational burnout of operating room nurses,and improving the level of psychological capital can reduce the level of occupational burnout of operating room nurses.
