In the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, resilience has emerged as a critical protective factor in helping nurses manage these stressors. Moreover, connectedness to nature has gained recognition as a potential influence on enhancing nurses\u2019 professional quality of life.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Purpose<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Drawing on Nature-Based Biopsychosocial Resilience Theory and General Systems Theory, this research investigates how connectedness to nature influences nurses\u2019 Professional Quality of Life, exploring the mediating role of psychological resilience.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A cross-sectional survey was conducted among clinical nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic. Path analysis examined direct and indirect relationships among connectedness to nature, psychological resilience, and three components of professional quality of life: compassion satisfaction, burnout, and secondary traumatic stress.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Connectedness to nature was significantly associated with higher compassion satisfaction and lower burnout. Psychological resilience partially mediated these relationships, indicating that while connectedness to nature may offer immediate stress-buffering benefits, it also contributes to the development of resilience, a critical long-term protective resource.
