Self-efficacy and feedback-seeking behavior are positive psychological resources for coping with occupational stressors and may be associated with a stronger sense of professional identity. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between transition shock and professional identity among nursing interns and to examine the mediating role of feedback-seeking behavior and the moderating role of self-efficacy in this process.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 450 clinical nursing interns in China using an online questionnaire. The survey comprised the Transition Shock Scale for Undergraduate Nursing Students, the General Self-efficacy Scale, the Feedback-seeking Behavior Scale, and the Professional Identity Questionnaire for Nurse Students. The R package \u201cmediation\u201d and the bootstrap method were used to examine the mediating effect. The R package \u201clavaan\u201d was further used to test the moderated mediation model.

Self-efficacy plays a significant moderating role by buffering the negative association of transition shock with feedback-seeking behavior. These findings provide an empirical basis for hospitals and nursing schools to develop effective strategies aimed at mitigating the impact of transition shock, thereby potentially enhancing professional identity and contributing to the stabilization of the nursing workforce.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fpsyg.2026.1886969","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,4]],"date-time":"2026-08-04T05:36:39Z","timestamp":1785821799000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["The relationship between transition shock and professional identity of nursing interns in China: a moderated mediation effect analysis"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Sai","family":"Liang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oncology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou","place":["Henan, China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Naifu","family":"Tang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Emergency, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou","place":["Henan, China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Han","family":"Ban","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oncology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou","place":["Henan, China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mingyu","family":"Xue","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oncology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou","place":["Henan, China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yanru","family":"Qin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oncology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou","place":["Henan, China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Weiling","family":"Shi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oncology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou","place":["Henan, China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yongyi","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nursing, The Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Xiangya School of Medicine, Central South University, Changsha","place":["Hunan, China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1168","DOI":"10.1186\/s12912-025-03842-y","article-title":"Role ambiguity and nursing interns\u2019 achievement of clinical rotation goals: A correlational study.","volume":"24","author":"Abdelaziz","year":"2025","journal-title":"BMC Nurs."},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1390","DOI":"10.1111\/inm.13179","article-title":"Nursing students\u2019 perceived stress, social support, self-efficacy, resilience, mindfulness and psychological well-being: A structural equation model.","volume":"32","author":"Berdida","year":"2023","journal-title":"Int.
