This study aimed to assess job satisfaction amongst Nigerian ophthalmologists.
The study was conducted during the annual congress of the Ophthalmological Society of Nigeria in September 2008. One hundred and ten ophthalmologists were selected by simple random sampling and asked to complete a structured questionnaire.
The response rate was 73%. The resulting sample comprised of 48 consultants (60%), four diplomates (5%), and 28 residents (35%). Most respondents 62 (78.5%) were satisfied with their job as ophthalmologists and 17 (21.5%) were not satisfied. Only 12 (15.4%) were satisfied with their remuneration and 42 (53.2%) were satisfied with their skill. Most respondents (75.6%) expressed readiness to pursue a career in ophthalmology if they were to make a choice again.
Most respondents were satisfied with their job, but only minorities were satisfied with their remuneration. Therefore, there is a need to address the issue of enhancement of remuneration for ophthalmologists in Nigeria.
本研究旨在评估尼日利亚眼科医生的工作满意度。
该研究于2008年9月在尼日利亚眼科学会年会上进行。通过简单随机抽样选取了110名眼科医生，并要求他们填写一份结构化问卷。
回复率为73%。最终样本包括48名顾问（60%）、4名专科文凭持有者（5%）和28名住院医生（35%）。大多数受访者62人（78.5%）对其眼科医生工作感到满意，17人（21.5%）不满意。只有12人（15.4%）对薪酬满意，42人（53.2%）对自身技能满意。大多数受访者（75.6%）表示，如果再次做出选择，愿意从事眼科职业。
大多数受访者对工作满意，但只有少数人对薪酬满意。因此，有必要解决提高尼日利亚眼科医生薪酬的问题。
