Introduction: Due to the harsh conditions of employment, nurses face with many stressful factors that can affect their physical and mental health as well as, their employment conditions. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of positive thinking training on hardiness, resiliency, and job burnout. Method: This was a quasi-experimental study. The samples were randomly selected from female Nurses employed in the governmental hospitals in Quchan, Iran. Then they were divided into two experimental (n=20) and control groups (n=20). Data were collected using Burnout Inventory (MBI) and Maslach & Jackson and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) and Kobasa hardiness questionnaire. Positive thinking training was administered over 8 sessions. Data were analyzed using SPSS-16 software. Results: The results of analysis of covariance showed that there were significant differences in the levels of burnout in nurses based on their age, marital status, working conditions, and their type of working contract (P>0.001). The results also showed that positive thinking training was effective on hardiness, resiliency, and job burnout (P>0.001). Intervention resulted in the increased hardiness, resilience, and reduced burnout in the nursing staff (P>0.001). Conclusion: According to the nurses, psychological interventions aimed at increasing hardiness and resiliency can reduce their burnout and improved job satisfaction and quality of service achieved.
