Nurses' life satisfaction (LS) predicts their health and the level of care they provide to patients, thus policies for promoting quality of nurses' work require actions to increase their LS. The aim of this study was to examine relations between LS and two levels of personality (traits and values) among Polish nurses, including joint effects of traits and values in a model integrating all variables to check whether meta-values can mediate trait-LS relationships. Nurses ( = 155) aged 23-64 completed the NEO-FFI, Satisfaction with Life Scale, and PVQ40. LS correlated with all traits, with openness higher than usual (0.34), and positively associated with meta-values: openness to change (0.23), self-transcendence (0.30), and ('unhealthy') conservation (0.19). Trait-value consistency was insufficient to explain some trait-value associations. In the SEM analysis, 23.3% of LS variance was explained. LS was related directly to neuroticism negatively and positively not only to extraversion, but also to openness, and self-transcendence meta-value (that increased value-environment congruence), and indirectly positively (through self-transcendence) to openness, agreeableness, conscientiousness, and even neuroticism. These results indicate that promoting nurses' health and quality of work by enhancing their LS requires supporting and increasing their identification with self-transcendence values and encourage research on factors that can increase it.
护士的生活满意度（LS）预测他们的健康状况和为患者提供的护理水平，因此，提高护士工作质量的政策需要采取行动来提高他们的 LS。本研究旨在检验 LS 与波兰护士的两个人格层面（特质和价值观）之间的关系，包括在整合所有变量的模型中特质和价值观的联合效应，以检验元价值观是否可以调节特质与 LS 的关系。年龄在 23-64 岁之间的护士（=155）完成了 NEO-FFI、生活满意度量表和 PVQ40。LS 与所有特质相关，与开放性相关度较高（0.34），与元价值观呈正相关：开放性（0.23）、自我超越（0.30）和（“不健康的”）保守主义（0.19）。特质-价值一致性不足以解释某些特质-价值之间的关系。在 SEM 分析中，LS 的方差解释了 23.3%。LS 与神经质呈负相关，与外向性呈正相关，不仅与外向性有关，而且与开放性和自我超越元价值（增加价值与环境的一致性）有关，并且与开放性、宜人性、尽责性甚至神经质呈间接正相关（通过自我超越）。这些结果表明，通过提高护士的 LS 来促进他们的健康和工作质量，需要支持和增加他们对自我超越价值观的认同，并鼓励研究可以提高 LS 的因素。
