Anomie as an Antecedent of Nurses' Turnover Intention.
Article in International nursing review, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
aimAnomie is defined as a psychological state in which a person feels socially disconnected and lacks a sense of belonging, leading them to disregard the impact of their actions on others. Considering the alarming issue of the nurse shortage worldwide, this study aims to examine the role of anomie on nurses' turnover intention, as well as the mediating role of job satisfaction in this relationship.
designThis is a cross-sectional study. The STROBE statement was followed as the reporting method.
methodsData were collected from 302 nurses working in primary and specialized healthcare in Gran Canaria (Spain). Statistical analyses were performed with PLS-SEM.
resultsThe data supported the proposed relationship between anomie and turnover intention. Although no direct effect was observed, the total effect was significant due to a significant indirect effect mediated by job satisfaction.
conclusionsAs an individual factor, nurses' anomie influences their turnover intention, a well-established proxy for actual turnover. Turnover exacerbates the ongoing global nurse shortage, with detrimental consequences for both healthcare organizations and patient care. DISCUSSION: Theoretically, this study expands existing knowledge on the determinants of nurses' turnover intention and enhances understanding of the anomie-turnover intention relationship. From a managerial perspective, it provides practical recommendations on preventing and managing anomic feelings among nursing staff. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING AND HEALTH POLICY: This study provides the first empirical evidence of anomie as an antecedent of turnover intention, both in general and within the nursing profession. Since the link between feeling anomic and quitting was empirically supported, it is advised that decision-makers in healthcare centers not only address anomic feelings among nurses but also prevent them through organizational efforts.
