The purpose of this predictive, nonexperimental study was to describe the influence of 3 interpretive styles of stress resiliency on phychological empowerment; psychological empowerment has been identified as a primary predictor of RN job satisfaction. Subjects were 142 nurses, randomly selected from 4 unit in 2 hospitals in a mid-Atlantic state. Measures used were Spreitzer's questionnaire for psychological empowerment (Chronbach alpha for this study = .89) and Thomas and Tymon's Stress Resiliency Profile for interpretive styles (Chronbach alpha for this study = .87, .74, and .85, for deficiency focusing, necessitating, and skill recognition, respectively). Regression analysis identified a model predictive of psychological empowerment in which 24% of the variance was explained by skill recognition and deficiency focusing components of interpretive styles, suggesting that nurses who believe they are effective and who do not imagine their own failure add to their own empowerment.
