Self-efficacy and family support in the relationship between stress and readiness for disaster response among nurses: a mediation analysis.

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
backgroundNurses’ readiness for disaster response is influenced by stress, self-efficacy, and family support. Understanding these mediating roles is crucial for enhancing readiness and ensuring effective patient care during disasters. This study examined whether self-efficacy and family support can mediate the relationship between stress and readiness for disaster response among nurses.
methodsThis cross-sectional study included 476 registered nurses. Data regarding demographics, work-related characteristics, perceived family support, and the Perceived Stress Scale-14, General Self-Efficacy Scale, and Readiness for Disaster Response Scale were collected. Descriptive statistics and Pearson’s correlation were used to analyze the data. The mediating roles of self-efficacy and family support were assessed using the PROCESS macro in SPSS; the indirect effects were evaluated using 10,000 bootstrap samples.
resultsNurses’ stress negatively correlated with self-efficacy and family support, whereas self-efficacy positively correlated with family support. Nurses’ readiness for disaster response negatively correlated with stress, and positively correlated with self-efficacy and family support. Self-efficacy significantly mediated the relationship between stress and readiness for disaster response; however, family support did not show any significant indirect effect.
conclusionsThese findings suggest that self-efficacy may play an important role in the relationship between stress and readiness for disaster response conversely, family support—although beneficial—did not significantly mediate this relationship. Considering the cross-sectional nature of the study, causal relationships cannot be inferred. Potential strategies to foster self-efficacy and readiness may include skill training, scenario-based drills, supportive workplace policies, and family engagement.
