About this study

Survey Methods In this study, a questionnaire on nursing leadership and influencing factors was distributed online through Wenjuanxing, an online questionnaire platform. The nursing department and the head nurse of the department where the questionnaire was to be distributed were first contacted and they agreed, and the researcher joined each department's nurses' WeChat group, distributed the questionnaire QR code, and explained the inclusion and exclusion criteria and the method of completing the questionnaire, emphasizing that the questionnaire was filled in anonymously. Nurses in each department were given 24 hours to participate in the response (the response time was around 30 minutes).

Quality Control The selected nursing leadership questionnaire, EPQ-RSC scale and psychological capital questionnaire all had good reliability and validity; the inclusion and exclusion criteria and the method of completing the questionnaire were explained by the researcher to the participated nurses; questionnaires that were not filled out completely or filled out with obvious regularity, and those with L scores greater than 60 on the personality trait scale were considered invalid and were excluded; the data were checked by two people after collection.

Statistical methods SPSS 22.0 was used for statistical analysis. Continuous-type data were described using the mean ± standard deviation ( ), and single-sample t-test was used for those satisfying normal distribution. Count data were described using frequency and composition ratios. Dichotomous logistic regression was used to analyze the factors influencing the leadership of pediatric clinical nurses; P<0.05 was considered a statistically significant difference when not specifically stated.
