- Work-Family Balance Scale; scores 14-70, with higher scores indicating greater levels of work-family conflict or facilitation.
- Practice Environment Scale of the Nursing Work Index; scores 31-124, with higher scores indicating a more supportive work environment.
- Perceived Stress Scale; scores 0-40, with higher scores indicating greater perceived stress.
- Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey; scores 0-132, with higher scores indicating greater burnout severity.
- Nurses' Perceived Professional Benefits Scale; scores 33-165, with higher scores indicating higher perceived professional benefits.
- Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale; scores 0-40, with higher scores indicating greater symptom severity.
Measured: This is a 5-year observational cohort study with no interventions. Three cross-sectional outcome assessments will be conducted: first from June 2026 to December 2026, second from June 2028 to December 2028, and third from June 2030 to December 2030.
