Work engagement is a new concept in the field of psychology and human resource management. Increased vitality and enthusiasm is a social phenomenon that brings work engagement for society. This study aimed to evaluate work engagement and its determinants in Kermanshah hospitals' staff.
This cross-sectional study was conducted on 387 hospital administrative, clinical, paraclinical, and service staff. The sample size was calculated using Krejcei-Morgan table. The data were collected using a questionnaire including demographic characteristics and job engagement components. Then, the data were analyzed using descriptive statistics as well as independent sample t-test and one-way ANOVA.
The participants' mean (SD) of age was 32.63±2.7 years and most of them were female (57.6%). The results revealed a significant relationship between work engagement and age group (P=0.01) and work experience (P=0.04). However, no significant relationship was found between work engagement and sex, education level, and job unit.
The results of this study showed that only job experience and age were associated with work engagement. However, no significant relationship was found between work engagement and education level, sex, and job. Thus, further studies are suggested to investigate the cultural factors and personality traits associated with job enthusiasm among the hospital staff, especially nurses.
工作投入是心理学和人力资源管理领域的一个新概念。活力和热情的增加是一种给社会带来工作投入的社会现象。本研究旨在评估克尔曼沙赫医院工作人员的工作投入及其决定因素。
本横断面研究对387名医院行政、临床、辅助临床和服务人员进行。样本量使用Krejcei-Morgan表计算。数据通过一份包括人口统计学特征和工作投入成分的问卷收集。然后,使用描述性统计以及独立样本t检验和单因素方差分析对数据进行分析。
参与者的平均年龄(标准差)为32.63±2.7岁,其中大多数为女性(57.6%)。结果显示工作投入与年龄组(P=0.01)和工作经验(P=0.04)之间存在显著关系。然而,工作投入与性别、教育水平和工作单位之间未发现显著关系。
本研究结果表明,只有工作经验和年龄与工作投入有关。然而,工作投入与教育水平、性别和工作之间未发现显著关系。因此,建议进一步研究调查医院工作人员尤其是护士中与工作热情相关的文化因素和人格特质。
