It was conducted that Descriptive analysis, t-test, Pearson's correlation coefficient, multiple regression, ANOVA, and Scheffé test using SPSS 25.0 program. Result: The nurses' work performance showed positive correlations with anger management ability, resilience, and self-compassion. Factors affecting the work performance of nurses were resilience (β=.46, p<.001), total work experience (β=.22, p=.014), current department work experience (β=.17, p=.009), anger management ability (β=.13, p=.026), and the overall explanatory power of these factors was 54.6%.
