The aim was to explore 1) the relationship between nursing faculty attributes and their experiences with workplace incivility and 2) the impact of experiences with workplace incivility on the physical and psychological health of nursing faculty.
Qualitative evidence suggests that workplace incivility impacts the physical and psychological health of nursing faculty. This has not been explored in a quantitative manner.
A cross-sectional, correlational survey was distributed to nursing faculty teaching in the southeastern United States. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression and hierarchical multivariate multiple regression.
Faculty age, full-time status, highest degree earned, orientation programs, and program type were significantly related to experiences with workplace incivility. Workplace incivility was significantly related to an increase in headaches, sleep disturbances, and digestive problems and a decrease in subjective well-being.
Workplace incivility significantly impacts the physical and psychological health of nursing faculty.
探讨 1)护理教师属性与其工作场所不文明行为经历之间的关系,以及 2)工作场所不文明行为经历对护理教师身心健康的影响。
定性证据表明,工作场所不文明行为会影响护理教师的身心健康。但这尚未以定量的方式进行探索。
一项横断面相关性调查在美国东南部的护理教师中展开。使用多元线性回归和分层多元多重回归分析数据。
教师年龄、全职状态、最高学位、入职培训计划以及项目类型与工作场所不文明行为经历显著相关。工作场所不文明行为与头痛、睡眠障碍、消化问题的增加以及主观幸福感的降低显著相关。
