Relationships among emotional intelligence, conscientiousness, and resilience in nurses at Hamadan teaching hospitals, Iran: a cross-sectional study.
Article in BMC nursing, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundNurses working in high-stress environments depend substantially on resilience to maintain mental health and professional performance. Emotional intelligence (EI) and conscientiousness are known to be associated with resilience; however, their interrelationships in Iranian hospital nurses have not been thoroughly investigated. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the relationships among EI, conscientiousness, and resilience in nurses at teaching hospitals in Hamadan, Iran.
methodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted in 2025 on 390 nurses from nine teaching hospitals in Hamadan, Iran, using proportional stratified random sampling. Data were collected using the Wong and Law Emotional Intelligence Scale (WLEIS), the conscientiousness subscale of the NEO Five-Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI), and the 10-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-10). Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation analysis, and hierarchical multiple regression analysis were conducted using SPSS version 26.
resultsThere was a moderately strong positive association between EI and resilience (r = 0.56, p < 0.001) and between conscientiousness and resilience (r = 0.49, p < 0.001). The final regression model, including demographic variables, EI, and conscientiousness, explained 47% of the variance in resilience (R² = 0.47, F(7, 382) = 48.30, p < 0.001), with EI showing the strongest association with resilience.
conclusionsEI and conscientiousness are significantly associated with resilience in this sample of nurses. Assessing these psychological resources and evaluating targeted training programs may be useful for supporting resilience in high-stress clinical settings. However, longitudinal and interventional studies are needed to confirm these findings.
