The turnover intention rate among nurses is very high both worldwide, and in Europe. It is related to personal and professional factors that contribute to the decision to leave or stay. This descriptive cross-sectional study aimed to identify the personal and professional predictors that contribute to nurses' turnover intention in Croatia. A convenient sample of 448 nurses employed in public general hospitals was used. The Practice Environment Scale of the Nursing Work Index questionnaire and the Turnover Intention Scale were applied. A logistic regression model was used to determine the associations between nurses' turnover intention and their personal and professional factors. The results indicate that both types of factors can influence nurses' turnover intention. The associations between turnover intention and personal factors such as age (p = 0.033), gender (p = 0.023), job satisfaction (p < 0.001), and social satisfaction (p = 0.006), were recorded. Nurse participation in hospital affairs (p = 0.026), and the nurse manager ability, leadership, and support of nurses (p = 0.002), which are professional factors were also associated with turnover intention. In order to prevent turnover intention, continuous measures need to be planned and implemented to increase nurses' satisfaction and improve their working environment.

Researchers are increasingly conducting research using primary source data involving observation of, and exposure to, violent extremist individuals, their acts, their online content, and the ideologies that they act in support of. Of concern is that this increased use of primary source material has not occurred alongside a serious investigation of the traumatic outcomes that may result from constant exposure to such materials within the process of conducting academic research. As such, the goal of this review is to conduct a rapid evidence assessment to identify (a) What theories currently exist that conceptualize trauma stemming from vicarious observation of extremist atrocities? (b) In what similar domains (if any) have researchers conceptualized the trauma that stems from vicarious observation of extremist atrocities? (c) What is the current evidence base for these theories? And (d) What are the immediate research needs to extend this research and support the research workforce? Articles were identified using search strings related to types of trauma, and relevant domains of work (e.
