Abstract
This study used an ex-post facto survey for data collection and structural equation modeling for data analysis to explore the combined relationship of psychological capital and social capital on the severity of second victim syndrome experienced by registered nurses. Specifically, this study sought to answer the following research question "To what extent does the relationship between psychological capital and social capital combine to predict the severity of SVS experienced by registered nurses following a precipitating event?" A second research question, aimed at explicating the relationships between the subconstructs of the three constructs of interest was "What are the relationships between the subconstructs of psychological capital, social capital and second victim syndrome?"
