Background: This study aimed to determine the relationship between Type D personality and professional quality of life (ProQoL) in surgical nurses.
Material and methods: The study's sample consisted of 316 nurses working in surgical units. The socio-demographic characteristics form, ProQoL Scale and Type D Personality Scale-14 were used. After verifying the data’s normal distribution, t-test, ANOVA and Pearson Correlation Analysis were performed.
Results: Among the nurses, 32.9% had the Type D personality. The mean scores of the Type D Personality Scale sub-dimensions were negative affectivity 12.57±6.8 and social inhibition 9.26±5.64. The mean scores of ProQoL Scale sub-dimensions were compassion satisfaction 34.95±10.03, burnout 17.12±7.36, and compassion fatigue 13.97±7.96. While there was a moderate positive correlation between the Type D personality sub-dimensions and burnout and compassion fatigue, a low negative correlation was found between compassion satisfaction.
Conclusions: There is a relationship between the Type D personality and ProQoL. High Type D personality scores have a negative effect on ProQoL.
