Cross-sectional study reveals acceptance correlates with higher resilience in emergency department nurses, indicating psychological flexibility aids coping in high-stress clinical settings.

Key Points

Investigate the relative contributions of personality traits and cognitive emotion regulation strategies to psychological resilience among emergency department nurses.
Conducted a cross-sectional study using convenience sampling among 162 emergency department nurses in Shiraz, Iran, between June and August 2022.
Measured resilience via CD-RISC-25, personality traits via NEO-FFI, and cognitive emotion regulation via CERQ-18.
Analyzed data using Spearman's correlation and hierarchical multiple linear regression with HC3 robust standard errors and sensitivity analyses.
Permanent employment was significantly associated with higher resilience scores compared to contractual employment (p = 0.005).
Hierarchical regression showed acceptance positively predicted resilience (B = 2.06, p = 0.048), whereas conscientiousness showed a negative association (B = −0.59, p = 0.017).
The addition of cognitive emotion regulation strategies did not significantly increase explained variance over personality traits alone (ΔR² = 0.06, p = 0.296).
