Self-Efficacy Mediates the Relationship Between Organisational Support and Health Education Competency: A Cross-Sectional Study Among 9182 Nurses.
Article in Nursing open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
aimThis study aimed to explore the association of organisational support with health education competency and to examine the mediating role of self-efficacy among Chinese nurses.
designA cross-sectional study.
methodsThe cross-sectional survey method was used in this study. Using a convenience sampling approach, 9182 nurses were recruited from 54 tertiary hospitals, 56 secondary hospitals, and 23 first-level hospitals in Anhui province, China, in 2023. The study used the Social-demographic Questionnaire, the Self-efficacy scale, the Organisational Support Perception Scale and the Health Education Competency Self-evaluation Scale for Nursing Staff to collect the data. Independent samples t-tests and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) were employed to assess the differences in health education competency. A Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to examine the relationship between the variables. The structural equation model (SEM) was employed, and the mediating effect between variables was assessed using the Bootstrap method.
resultsHealth education competency was significantly positively correlated with self-efficacy and organisational support (p < 0.001). Self-efficacy was significantly positively correlated with organisational support (p < 0.001). Organisational support has a direct positive predictive effect on health education competency. Self-efficacy is a mediating variable of organisational support and health education competency. The mediating effect is 0.336, accounting for 51.45% of the total effect.
conclusionsThe level of nurses' health education ability in China is medium and still needs to be improved. Self-efficacy can play a part of the mediating role between organisational support and health education competency. The intervention measures to improve health education competency should be focused on nurses' organisational support improvement.
