IntroductionThe aim of this study was to investigate the Relationship of Corona Anxiety and Health Concern with Quality of Life with mediating role of resilience in Nurses MethodThe statistical population included all female nurses working in COVID-19 government hospitals in Ahvaz in the first 6 months of 2021(N=320). Therefore, 250 nurses were selected by cencus sampling method and were provided with online questionnaires using WhatsApp virtual network. In order to collect data, the Short Form of Quality of Life Questionnaire (World Health Organization, 2006), Corona Anxiety Scale (Alizadeh et al., 2020), Health Concern Scale (Wells & Davis, 1994), and the Resilience Scale (Connor & Davidson, 2003) were used. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling. Also, indirect effects were investigated through the bootstrap method. ResultsThe results showed that the direct effects of corona anxiety on resilience (β = -0.35, p <0.05), health concern on resilience (β = 0.20, p <0.05), corona anxiety on quality of life (β = -0.11, p <0.05), and resilience on quality of life (β = 0.58, p <0.05) were significant. However, the direct path of health concern on quality of life (β = 0.03, p <0.05) was not significant. Also, the indirect effect of corona anxiety on quality of life through resilience and also the indirect effect of health anxiety on quality of life through resilience were significant (p <0.01). DiscussionDue to the importance of resilience in the quality of life of nurses, it is recommended that training be done to promote the quality of life of nurses.
