The general information questionnaire was designed in consultation with several investigators. It included age, ethnicity, gender, department, technical title, type of position, years of experience, number of night shifts, highest education, marital status, daily commuting time, hobbies, history of chronic diseases, hypertension, diabetes, history of stroke, and sleep condition.
Snulkstein, MD, designed the Family Care Scale in 1978 as a self-assessment APGAR questionnaire (19 (link)) that included five dimensions: Adaptation, Partnership, Growth, Affection, and Resolve (Supplementary Table 1 ).
Stamm developed the Professional Quality of Life Scale. The scale consists of three dimensions: compassionate satisfaction, job burnout, and secondary trauma, and each dimension contains 10 items, which are assigned a score of 1–5 from “never” to “always.” The sum of the scores of each dimension is low level, 23–41 is medium level, and ≥42 is high level (Supplementary Table 2 ).
The nurse perception of organizational support questionnaire was developed by Haozen Wang. It has 1 dimension and 15 items, with a Cronbach coefficient of 0.985, a half reliability of 0.909, and a retest reliability of 0.812. The Likert 5-point scale was used, with scores from 1 to 5 representing “strongly disagree” to “strongly agree,” respectively. “The higher the score, the higher the perceived level of organizational support of the nurses (seeSupplementary Table 3 for the questionnaire). The Work-Family Conflict Scale (WFCS), developed by Hauk and Chodkiewicz (20 (link)), has 2 dimensions (work-court conflict and family-work conflict) and 10 items on a 5-point Likert scale (Supplementary Table 4 ).
All the above questionnaires were translated into Chinese in advance (21 ), and the consent and cooperation of the hospital and each department were obtained. A uniformly trained surveyor conducted the survey. The questionnaires were filled out at a uniform time and collected by the surveyor on the spot and checked for content, and if there were any missing items, they were completed on the spot.
In this study, 2,200 questionnaires were distributed, and 2,014 valid questionnaires were returned, with a valid return rate of 91.5%.
