Mediator Effect of Work Overload Between Fear of Future Violence at Work and Turnover Intention in Nurses.
Article in International journal of nursing practice, 2026. 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
aimIncreasing rates of violence among healthcare workers contribute to increased fear of future violence, which consequently affects turnover intention. This study aimed to elucidate the mediating role of work overload on the relationship between fear of future violence at work and turnover intention in nurses.
methodsThis explanatory cross-sectional study was conducted with a sample of 124 nurses employed at a public hospital. Data were collected using a self-administered survey that included a Personal Information Form, the Fear of Future Violent Events at Work Scale, the Work Overload Scale and the Turnover Intention Scale. Mediation analysis was performed using the PROCESS macro (Model 4) for SPSS with bootstrapping procedures to test indirect effects.
resultsResults indicated a significant positive relationship between fear of future violence and work overload, as well as between work overload and turnover intention. While the total effect of fear of future violence on turnover intention was significant, the direct effect was not. Work overload significantly mediated the relationship between fear of future violence and turnover intention.
conclusionThe fear of future violence at work statistically significantly contributes to perceived increased workload, subsequently escalating the likelihood of turnover. These insights highlight the necessity for nursing policy interventions that aim to reduce work overload and address concerns related to future workplace violence. Creation of safer work environments may mitigate turnover intentions among nurses.
