The Index of Work Satisfaction, developed by Stamps et al., was administered to 583 nurses who had practiced public health nursing in Japan. After psychometric evaluation, three components were identified as contributing to their job satisfaction: the work environment, professional confidence, and commitment to the profession. Overall, the participants in the study were quite satisfied. The findings corroborated previous reports on Japanese nurses' job satisfaction, in that the nurses in the study were most satisfied with their relationships with peers, patients/families, and supervisors. However, they were least satisfied with having enough time for client care, having confidence, and promotion opportunities. The implications are discussed, to the effect that understanding the factors related to public health nurses' job satisfaction could help administrators to improve regulations and other issues related to the work environment.
工作满意度指数由 Stamps 等人开发,用于对在日本从事公共卫生护理工作的 583 名护士进行评估。经过心理测量评估,确定了三个因素对他们的工作满意度有贡献:工作环境、专业信心和对职业的承诺。总的来说,研究参与者非常满意。研究结果与之前关于日本护士工作满意度的报告相吻合,即研究中的护士对他们与同事、患者/家属和主管的关系最满意。然而,他们对有足够的时间照顾客户、有信心和晋升机会最不满意。讨论了这些结果的影响,即了解与公共卫生护士工作满意度相关的因素可以帮助管理人员改善与工作环境相关的法规和其他问题。
