Abstract

Objective: Determine the relationship between work stress and the resilience of nurses at a hospital in Cajamarca during the month of March 2025. To identify the levels of both variables and the personal factors that influence them. Materials and Methods: A quantitative, non-experimental, cross-sectional, and correlational study, the sample of which was 115 nursing professionals selected through simple random probability sampling. The Nursing Stress Scale questionnaire (α=0.92) and the Wagnild and Young Resilience Questionnaire (α=0.905) were used. Results: The evaluated relationship yielded a value (RS=-0.083, p=0.379) and an association (p=0.816). 81.7% of respondents exhibited a low level of stress and 47% a high level of resilience. A significant relationship was found between gender and resilience (p=0.002), as well as between employment status (p=0.043) and educational level (p=0.029) and work stress. Conclusions: Work stress is not statistically significantly related to resilience among nursing staff at a hospital in Cajamarca in 2025. Gender is significantly associated with higher levels of resilience, while employment status and educational level are significantly associated with work stress.
