Objective: To identify different work engagement profiles among new nurses in China and explore demographic and personal factors that predict different work engagement profiles.
Design: A cross-sectional study.
Methods: From 1 April to 30 June 2022, a cross-sectional survey was conducted in 11 tertiary hospitals across five provinces in China. Using a convenience sampling method, 662 new nurses were recruited to participate. Data were collected using standardised instruments, including the Work Engagement Scale, the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale and the Job Crafting Scale. Latent profile analysis was employed to identify latent profiles of work engagement among new nurses, and multinomial logistic regression analysis was used to examine predictors of different work engagement profiles.
Results: This study identified three potential profiles of work engagement among new nurses, namely the 'low work engagement group' (15%), the 'moderate work engagement group' (62%) and the 'high work engagement group' (23%). Independent nursing work, emotion regulation training, difficulties in emotion regulation and job crafting were predictors of different work engagement profiles.
Conclusions: Nursing supervisors are advised to pay more attention to and help new nurses who work independently, strengthen relevant training on emotion regulation strategies for new nurses and construct intervention strategies based on job crafting, so as to improve the work engagement level of new nurses.

Background: The "Fundamentals of Nursing" course is crucial for equipping novice undergraduate nursing students with essential skills for their professional practice. However, a gap exists between nursing education and clinical readiness-a challenge exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and issues like absenteeism in clinical sessions. The flipped classroom has been proposed as an innovative strategy to bridge this gap, offering students opportunities for self-paced learning before class and enabling more active, hands-on practice during lab sessions.

This study examines how social media platforms shape drug policy advocacy by analyzing stakeholder engagement surrounding supervised consumption sites in New York City. While research has explored organizational use of social media for advocacy, less attention has focused on patterns of civic engagement and dialogue. Analyzing messages and comments from two opposing organizations-OnPoint NYC and Harlem East Block Association-over 24 months (2022-2023), we investigate whether social media-based drug policy advocacy creates public spheres for diverse dialogue or echo chambers of like-minded individuals.
