Negative psychology, emotion management, self-efficacy, emotional intelligence and burnout in clinical nurses were measured, and structural equation models were constructed to explore their impact on burnout in clinical nurses.Results: Clinical nurses’ negative psychology had a positive effect on burnout (β=0.60, 95% CI: 0.63– 0.66), emotional intelligence (β=˗0.08, 95% CI: ˗0.10, ˗0.06) and the self-efficacy of emotion management (β=− 0.60, 95% CI: ˗0.05, ˗0.03) on burnout. Moreover, emotional intelligence and emotion management self-efficacy played a mediating role between negative psychology and burnout in nurses.Conclusion: Clinical nurses’ negative psychology had a positive impact on burnout, and emotional intelligence and the self-efficacy of emotion management could alleviate the influence of negative psychology on burnout among nurses. Nurses’ emotional intelligence and emotion management self-efficacy can be improved through practical training to help them cope with emotionally loaded situations and reduce stress responses.Keywords: clinical nurse, job burnout, negative psychology, emotional management self-efficacy, emotional intelligence
