Organizational commitment is emphasized as an essential element for improving nurses' work performance and organizational productivity. There is a lack of research investigating both the direct and indirect factors influencing organizational commitment among long-term care (LTC) hospital nurses.
This study explored the mediating effects of nurses' professional values on the relationship between the nursing work environment and organizational commitment among LTC hospital nurses.
Participants included 154 nurses from nine LTC hospitals in South Korea. Data were collected using Korean versions of the Practice Environment Scale of the Nursing Work Index, Nursing Professional Values Scale-Revised, and Organizational Commitment Questionnaire. Subsequent analyses were conducted using Baron and Kenny's three-step regression method and the Sobel test.
The analyses showed that nursing professional values partially mediated the relationship between the nursing work environment and organizational commitment (Z = 3.43, p = .001).
LTC hospital managers need to make efforts to improve the nursing work environment and to promote nursing professional values for increasing nurses' organizational commitment.
组织承诺被视为提高护士工作绩效和组织生产力的关键要素。目前缺乏对长期护理(LTC)医院护士组织承诺的直接和间接影响因素的研究。
本研究探讨护士职业价值观在长期护理医院护士工作环境与组织承诺关系中的中介作用。
研究对象包括韩国9家长期护理医院的154名护士。使用韩文版的护理工作指数实践环境量表、修订后的护理职业价值观量表和组织承诺问卷收集数据。随后采用Baron和Kenny的三步回归法及Sobel检验进行分析。
分析表明,护理职业价值观部分中介了护理工作环境与组织承诺之间的关系(Z = 3.43,p = 0.001)。
长期护理医院管理者需要努力改善护理工作环境,促进护理职业价值观,以提高护士的组织承诺。
