Strong social connections are important for overall well-being, as they can provide emotional support, companionship, and a sense of purpose.

Finally, a sense of purpose and meaning in life is an important aspect of overall well-being. This can involve pursuing one's passions and interests, engaging in meaningful work, and contributing to the world in a positive way.

A study explored the current occupational well-being status of male nurses in [[Chengdu]], and identifies the concomitant protective and risk factors.

Design: This study has a [[cross-sectional]] [[survey]] [[design]].

From 13 July to 21 July 2019, a cross-sectional survey involving 209 male nurses in 7 [[tertiary hospital]]s in Chengdu, China, was conducted using a general information [[questionnaire]], the Mindfulness Attention Awareness Scale, the Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-II, the Professional Identity Scale and the Nurses' Occupational Well-being Scale.

Results: The score of male [[nurse]]s' occupational well-being was 78.7 ± 14.2. The higher the mindfulness and professional identity (p = .002, p < .001, respectively), the higher the occupational well-being of male nurses. The lower the experiential avoidance, the higher the occupational well-being (p = .001). The highest occupational well-being was found among male nurses who had less than 5-years' working experience.

The results suggest that male nurses' occupational well-being was at a moderate level. [[Mindfulness]] and [[professional identity]] were the protective factors of male nurses' occupational well-being, and [[experiential avoidance]] was the risk factor. Nursing managers should ascertain male nurses' current occupational well-being and the influencing factors and formulate effective improvement strategies. Male nurse courses on enhancing mindfulness and professional identity and reducing experiential avoidance should be explored, with a focus on helping nurses improve their professional well-being and, in turn, prospectively reducing the turnover rate
