Emotion Regulation, Job Burnout, Job Satisfaction, and Work-life Balance among Nurses

Abstract The primary objective of this theoretical study is to investigate the complex inter- play between Emotion Regulation (ER), Job Burnout, Job Satisfaction, and Work- Life Balance (WLB) specifically within the nursing workforce. The profession of nursing is intrinsically challenging, defined by extensive emotional labour and persistent stress, factors that often lead to professional burnout and a decrease in job satisfaction. Drawing upon the theoretical underpinnings of the Conservation of Resources (COR) theory and the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model, this paper introduces a new framework titled the ”Nurses’ Adaptive Emotional Buffer Model” (NAEBM). This innovative conceptual model suggests that the use of adaptive emotion regulation strategies—most notably cognitive reappraisal—acts as a vital precursor in mitigating burnout symptoms. Furthermore, the model posits Work-Life Balance as a crucial mediating variable that converts the bene- fits of reduced burnout into improved job satisfaction. Evidence from a systematic review of 50 scholarly sources corroborates these theoretical propositions. The study concludes by discussing significant pedagogical and clinical implications for nursing management aimed at enhancing workforce resilience and retention rates.
