Background The function of nurses in hospitals cannot be overemphasised among other medical personnel. Moreland and Apker (2016) asserted that nurses function as central figures of health teams and that their responsibilities include among others coordination of direct care and communication between team members, patients and their families. In view of this, nurses may be exposed to many demanding responsibilities. It has been consistently documented in the literature globally that nurses experience higher levels of work-related stress (Colff & Rothmann 2014; Kamau, Medisauskaite & Lopes 2015; Okwaraji & Aguwa 2014). According to Colff and Rothmann (2014), nurses experience several job demands that include workloads, health risk posed by contact with patients, fellow workers not doing their jobs, demands from patients and excessive administrative duties. Furthermore, Sharma et al. (2014) affirmed that work stress brings forth hazardous impacts not only on nurses' health but also on their ability to cope with job demands, of which adequate attention to patients is of utmost importance. It was reported that 42% of nurses sampled were suffering from moderate to severe levels of stress on the job (Sharma et al. 2014). Okwaraji and Aguwa (2014) reported a high level of emotional exhaustion among 42.9% of a sample of Nigerian nurses and that 53.8% of the respondents experienced reduced accomplishments, 47.6% experienced depersonalisation and 44.1% showed the presence of psychological distress. Similarly, Gandi et al. (2011) reported no gender difference in burnout levels among nurses, but that workhome interference and homework interference were found as mediators to the relationship between work characteristics and burnout and that the mediational relationship differs between genders. All the aforementioned studies confirm a high presence of work stress in the nursing population. Apart from other medical personnel and administrative workers, patients are a major category of people that nurses interact with in the hospitals. The interaction between nurses and patients is expected to go beyond only communication of information but also understanding of the patients' needs and their emotions towards realisation of effective care for the patients. With this in mind, Background: Universally, nurses have been reported to be a group at high risk of workplace stress. However, nurses' responses to stressful situations at work could be the outcomes of individual differences and organisational factors. Objectives: We examined the independent and joint contributions of four dimensions of emotional intelligence and perceived organisational support in work stress of nurses in a teaching hospital in Nigeria. Methods: The study was a cross-sectional survey research design, which selected 228 (41 male and 187 female nurses) nurses through the use of convenience sampling. Questionnaires comprising demographics with work stress, organisational support and emotional intelligence scales were administered to the sampled 228 nurses in the study. Data were analysed with the use of correlational matrix and hierarchical multiple regression. Results: Self-emotion appraisal, others' emotion appraisal, use of emotion, regulation of emotion and perceived organisational support were found to have joint contributions to explaining work stress among nurses. Others' emotion appraisal, use of emotion and perceived organisational support were found to have independent relationships with work stress. Conclusion: Our findings stress that judgement of others' emotions, accurate use of emotion by nurses and support from management of the hospital are most important in explaining their reactions towards work-related stress.
