Examining the impact of emotional intelligence on job performance with the mediating role of clinical competence in nurses: a structural equation approach.
Article in BMC nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundEmotional intelligence, clinical competence, and job performance are increasingly becoming critical areas of focus for organizations navigating turbulent and complex environments. This study aims to examine the impact of emotional intelligence on job performance, mediated by the clinical competence of nurses working in hospitals affiliated with Jiroft University of Medical Sciences in southern Iran in 2024.
methodsThis cross-sectional descriptive-analytical study was conducted on 385 nurses. Standardized questionnaires on emotional intelligence, clinical competence, and job performance were used for data collection. To analyze the data, descriptive tests and structural equation modeling (SEM) using partial least squares (PLS) were employed with the help of Smart PLS3 and SPSS23 software.
resultsThe results showed that emotional intelligence positively affects nurses' job performance (p = 0.001, β = 0.53). Emotional intelligence also has a positive impact on clinical competence (p = 0.001, β = 0.46). Furthermore, clinical competence was found to positively affect job performance (p = 0.001, β = 0.57). Ultimately, emotional intelligence, through the mediating role of clinical competence, has a significant positive effect on job performance (P < 0.001).
conclusionBased on the findings, the favourable status of nurses' emotional intelligence and clinical competence can improve their job performance. It is recommended that hospital managers facilitate related training courses and workshops to improve nurses' emotional intelligence and clinical competence, which can, in turn, enhance their job performance. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
