摘要：The performance of public hospital employees, especially nurses, has become a major concern nowadays. Therefore, nurse's ability to cope and respond fast to excel in the workplace will boost their performance while solving patients’ problems and safe people’s life. As a result, the aim of this research is to investigate the factors that lead to enhance nurses’ adaptive performance by study on relationship between person environment (PE) fit, work engagement (WE), and adaptive performance (AP). The researchers also look into the role of WE as a potential mediator. PE fit was assessed in three dimensions in this study: person-group (PG) fit, person-job (PJ) fit, and person-supervisor (PS) fit. Furthermore, vigor, determination, and absorption were used as mediators of WE, while AP was assessed as unidimensional in this analysis. A total of 638 questionnaires were distributed to nurses in the Emergency Departments of twelve Malaysian public hospitals, with 430 of them being evaluated using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The methodological findings of this analysis suggest that PE fit measurements (PG fit and PJ fit) are related to AP while there is a positive significant relationship between PJ and PS fit (for PE fit) and WE. The finding also affirms the presence of a substantial positive interaction between WE and AP. In addition, WE also mediates the relationship between three dimensions of PE fit (PJ fit, PS fit, and AP fit) and AP. According to the results, public hospital administrators should place a greater emphasis on the person fit of nurses in order to increase their work performance and adaptability in their challenging working space. Finally, this study discusses the theoretical and functional contributions, as well as shortcomings and possible research suggestions.
