Abstract

This study aims to contribute to the body of knowledge on creativity by developing a conceptual framework that draws on the relationships between intrinsic motivation (IM), creative performance (CP), psychological capital (PC), and creative self-efficacy (CSE). It was carried out by examining via parallel mediation. A quantitative cross-sectional research approach was employed to investigate the impact of all constructs with 414 nurses using a structured questionnaire via e-mail. SmartPLS v. 4.1.0.6 was employed for data analysis. The CFA results were taken for the measurement model by calculating the CB-SEM algorithm and the bootstrapping was calculated to find the structural model effects. The hypothesis results confirmed the significant positive direct effect between IM and CP. Further, it is also proved that IM has a significant indirect effect on CP through the parallel partial mediation of both CSE and PC of nurses in healthcare centres.
