Abstract: Objective: To investigate the present status of turnover intention and psychological contract in pediatric nurses, and analyze the relationship between them. Methods: A total of 358 pediatric nurses from 17 tertiary general hospitals in Xuzhou were investigated with Turnover Intention Scale (TIS) and Psychological Contract Questionnaire(PCQ). Results: The average scores of TIS and PCQ in pediatric nurses were 2.17±0.67 and 4.13±0.46, respectively. The score of staff responsibility was higher than that of organizational responsibility. Hierarchical regression analysis showed that the organizational normative responsibility, organizational interpersonal responsibility and organizational development responsibility in psychological contract could be used to predict the turnover intention and independently explain 22.6% variation of their turnover intention. Conclusion: The pediatric nurses presented high turnover intention, and psychological contract may work as an important factor affecting their turnover intention.
