Aims: Nurses' turnover intention is not just a result of their maladjustment to the field; it is an organizational issue. This study aimed to construct a structural model to verify the effects of new graduate nurses' work environment satisfaction, emotional labor, and burnout on their turnover intention, with consideration of resilience and job involvement, and to test the adequacy of the developed model.Methods: A cross‐sectional study and a structural equation modelling approach were used. A nationwide survey was conducted of 371 new nurses who were working in hospitals for ≤18 months between July and October, 2014.Results: The final model accounted for 40% of the variance in turnover intention. Emotional labor and burnout had a significant positive direct effect and an indirect effect on nurses' turnover intention. Resilience had a positive direct effect on job involvement. Job involvement had a negative direct effect on turnover intention. Resilience and job involvement mediated the effect of work environment satisfaction, emotional labor, and burnout on turnover intention.Conclusion: It is important to strengthen new graduate nurses' resilience in order to increase their job involvement and to reduce their turnover intention.

노화과정은 활성산소(reactive oxygen species, ROS)와 우리 체내 항산화 능력 간의 불균형으로 인한 산화스트레스(oxidative stress)와 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 알려져 있다[1]. 산화스트레스는 심혈관계 질환, 호흡기, 근골격계 질환 같은 노인성 질환과 수명에 영향을 미친다[1,2]. 산화스트레스는 다양한 요인에 의해 발생하는 것으로 보고되었으며[1,2], 그 중 호모시스테인은 산화과정을 통해 동맥혈관에 급격한 산화스트레스를 유발하여[3] 동맥경화증의 독립적인 위험인자로 알려져 있다[4].
