Purpose: This study sought to investigate the effects of role conflict, role ambiguity, and workload on burnout syndrome among clinical nurses working in university hospitals and the mediating role of work-related stress in these effects.Design and Methods: Cross-sectional questionnaire-based survey was conducted.Data from 386 nurses were evaluated. The research variables were analyzed using statistical methods such as factor analysis, correlation analysis, regression analysis, Sobel tests, and bootstrapping method.Findings: It was determined that role conflict, role ambiguity, workload, and workrelated stress affect nurses' burnout significantly and work-related stress has a mediator role between burnout and the independent variables. Practice Implications: Nurses' burnout syndrome can be prevented if managerial practices to reduce the sources of role-related stressors and work-related stress are implemented by managers.

Aims
This study investigates the effects of ethical climate and innovative culture on the hospital nurses' job performance and innovative behaviour with the mediating factor of psychological empowerment.
Background
Hospital nurses have an opportunity to embrace innovative behaviours and increase their performance through a positive ethical climate and innovative culture. Understanding nurses' psychological empowerment in the workspace context that impacts innovation has not been a focus for hospital leadership.
Methods
A cross‐sectional study based on a questionnaire design was used for data collection and analysis. The data are collected through a voluntary survey—selected by a convenience sampling method—of 393 nurses from University Hospital. The Structural Equation Model and Bootstrap method test the study's hypotheses. A STROBE checklist was used for reporting.
Results
Ethical climate and innovative culture predict job performance and innovative behaviour with the mediating role of psychological empowerment. Moreover, psychological empowerment decreases the predictive power of ethical climate and innovative culture separately but increases the nurses' job performance and innovative culture.
Conclusions
Ethical climate and innovative culture significantly positively affect job performance and innovative behaviour. Additionally, the mediating effect of psychological empowerment increases job performance and innovative behaviour more than the effects of ethical climate and innovative culture.
Implications for Nursing Management
Nurses need to be prepared to practice safely, accurately and compassionately by translating moral values into rules of the nursing profession, where innovation increases at an astonishing rate. Nurse leaders and hospital managers should establish ethical norms as the consensus of ultimate criteria of validity of the rational analysis of tasks or particular nursing practice concepts, with an innovative culture by empowering nurses exceedingly in their workplace.
Purpose: This study investigated relationships between hospice nurses' emotional labor, life satisfaction, and affective commitment (moderator). We started with the assumption that displaying real emotions rather than faking them may increase life satisfaction.
Design and Methods:The study utilized a cross-sectional survey data analysis.A total of 322 nurses participated in the study. Hayes' process examined the moderation relationship predicting emotional labor and life satisfaction.
Findings:The results showed that emotional labor partially affected life satisfaction. However, those effects varied at different levels of affective commitment and interestingly diminished at a high level.Practice Implications: Nurse leaders should understand and transform the surface emotional setting of nurses to more profound acting emotions and then to natural emotional responses, which otherwise can generate emotional conflict causing unsatisfactory life.
