It has been suggested that experienced ICU nurses are better able to cope with the complexity of their environment and, as a result, achieve greater satisfaction than their less-experienced counterparts. One hundred ten ICU nurses from a large Midwestern medical center were requested to fill out a job tension and job satisfaction questionnaire. The results showed that job tension and job satisfaction remained relatively constant as the number of years on the job increased, refuting the notion that work experience automatically facilitates a mastery of environmental demands. As expected, job tension was inversely related to job satisfaction.
有人认为，经验丰富的重症监护室护士能够更好地应对复杂的工作环境，因此，与经验不足的同行相比，他们能获得更高的满意度。来自中西部一家大型医疗中心的110名重症监护室护士被要求填写一份工作压力和工作满意度调查问卷。结果显示，随着工作年限的增加，工作压力和工作满意度相对保持稳定，这驳斥了工作经验能自动促进对环境要求的掌握这一观点。不出所料，工作压力与工作满意度呈负相关。
