Abstract

This study investigates the influence relationship between emotional intelligence and social support on work stress in nurses during the post-pandemic situation. This study uses Multidimensional Instrument of Perceived Social Support (α = 0,870), Work Stress (α = 0,904), and Wong and Law Emotional Intelligence Scale (WLEIS) (α = 0,910). Hypothesis testing using multiple linear regression analysis.

The total sample of the research are 41 nurses (78% female) age from 24–54 who filled out an online questionnaire. The results of the regression test showed that emotional intelligence and social support was found to be unable to predict work stress of nurses. We found that all three dimensions of emotional intelligence did not predict nurse work stress, henceforth, the fourth dimension of emotional intelligence (regulation of emotion) (sig. 0.015 < 0.05) significantly predicted work stress on nurses in a negative direction.

This shows that the higher the emotional management ability of nurses, the lower their work stress. Social support was found to be unable to predict the work stress of nurses maybe because of the different source of social support and source of work stress. In post-pandemic conditions and the increasing pressure felt by nurses, health service providers need to provide training to improve emotional regulation which will ultimately reduce nurses’ work stress.
