Abstract: With the in-depth implementation of the reform of the medical system,the remuneration system and distribution mechanism have gradually become the focus of reform. As the subjective psychology of organizational members,the sense of pay equity is the subjective feeling of nurses about the fairness of what they receive in terms of self-pay,and runs through the salary distribution. Improving clinical nurses' sense of pay equity,can play an important significance in promoting the reform of the hospital remuneration system,stabilising the clinical nurses' workforce,and enhancing the enthusiasm of clinical nursing work. Therefore,this paper reviews the research status,commonly used research tools,and influencing factors of clinical nurses' sense of pay equity,aiming to provide reference for nursing managers to develop improvement plans for clinical nurses' sense of pay equity and promote remuneration system reform.
