The Mediating Effect of Burnout and Job Satisfaction on the Relationship Between Professional Identity, Occupational Stress, and Turnover Intentions in the Post‐Pandemic Era

The study highlights that professional identity mitigates nurse turnover by increasing job satisfaction and reducing burnout, while occupational stress drives turnover intentions by increasing burnout and decreasing job satisfaction. Tailored interventions aimed at enhancing professional identity and addressing occupational stress, particularly in light of pandemic-related challenges, are essential for improving nurse retention and well-being in the post-pandemic era.
