Abstract

The purposes of this study were to describe personality traits of certified nursing assistants (CNAs) employed at nursing homes and explore relationships between personality traits, job satisfaction, and job performance. The sample included 177 CNAs providing direct care to residents in three nursing homes. CNAs with high and low job performance skills were distinguished by the cluster of traits associated with teamwork skills. Overall, 21.3% of the variance in job satisfaction was explained by the personality traits of Adjustment, Prudence, Likeability, Excitable, and Dutiful, F(8, 145) = 4.899, p < 0.001. The links found between personality, job satisfaction, and job performance provide important information about the personality traits of nursing staff who are most likely to enjoy and perform well in the nursing home setting. Knowledge of these links may be useful for hiring the appropriate person for direct care nursing home positions.

摘要

本研究的目的是描述养老院雇佣的注册护理助理（CNA）的性格特征，并探讨性格特征、工作满意度和工作绩效之间的关系。样本包括177名在三家养老院为居民提供直接护理的CNA。工作绩效技能高和低的CNA通过与团队合作技能相关的特征集群来区分。总体而言，调整、审慎、亲和力、易激动和尽责这些性格特征解释了工作满意度中21.3%的方差，F(8, 145) = 4.899，p < 0.001。性格、工作满意度和工作绩效之间的联系为最有可能在养老院环境中享受工作并表现出色的护理人员的性格特征提供了重要信息。了解这些联系可能有助于为养老院直接护理职位招聘合适的人员。
