Purpose This study examined the effects of dispatch work experience on job embeddedness, organizational commitment, and turnover intention among nurses. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 130 nurses working at a tertiary hospital in Seoul. Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS version 28.0 with descriptive statistics, the independent t-test, one-way analysis of variance, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple linear regression. Results: Overall, 62.3% of participants reported improved competency following dispatch work experience, whereas 80.7% perceived pre-training as insufficient. Nurses with prior interaction with dispatch unit staff demonstrated significantly higher job embeddedness (F=10.37, p=.002) and organizational commitment (F=5.87, p=.017), along with significantly lower turnover intention (F=4.98, p=.027). Multiple regression analysis showed that job embeddedness was positively associated with prior interaction with dispatch unit staff (β=.170, p=.031) and perceiving dispatch operations as appropriate (β=.297, p<.001). Organizational commitment was significantly influenced by the perception of dispatch operations as appropriate (β=.209, p=.013). No dispatch-related factors were significantly associated with turnover intention. Conclusion: Positive perceptions of dispatch work and prior interaction with dispatch unit staff contribute to job embeddedness and organizational commitment. Improvements such as enhanced pre-interaction opportunities, practice-based training, and consideration of dispatch preferences are needed to optimize dispatch work experiences.
Purpose This study aimed to determine the effects of self-leadership on job performance competency and organizational commitment among insurance review nurses. Methods: A nationwide online survey was conducted using structured questionnaires. Participants included 189 insurance review nurses working in advanced general hospitals and general hospitals in South Korea. Data were collected through self-administered questionnaires between August 19 and September 17, 2021. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics, independent t-tests, one-way analysis of variance, Pearson’s correlation coefficients, and hierarchical multiple regression with IBM SPSS version 23.0. Results: The mean score for self-leadership was 3.64±0.43 out of 5, for job performance competency was 3.10±0.68 out of 5, and for organizational commitment was 4.38±1.09 out of 7. Statistically significant positive correlations were observed among self-leadership, job performance competency, and organizational commitment in insurance review nurses. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis showed that self-leadership explained an additional 13.9 percentage points of variance in job performance competency and an additional 5.3 percentage points in organizational commitment. Self-leadership emerged as a statistically significant predictor of both job performance competency and organizational commitment. Conclusion: This study empirically demonstrates that self-leadership has significant effects on job performance competency and organizational commitment among insurance review nurses. These findings provide empirical evidence relevant to human resource management strategies for insurance review nurses.
Purpose This study investigated the influence of organizational justice on junior nursing officers’ intent to stay in their positions and explored the mediating roles of job satisfaction and organizational commitment. Methods: A descriptive correlational design was employed, and data were analyzed using SPSS 29.0 software. Statistical analyses included descriptive statistics, the t-test, one-way analysis of variance, Pearson’s correlation coefficients, and multiple linear regression. The mediating effects of job satisfaction and organizational commitment were evaluated following Baron and Kenny’s three-step mediation procedure, and significance was confirmed through the bootstrapping method. Results: Organizational justice, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and intent to stay were all significantly positively correlated. The mediating effects of job satisfaction and organizational commitment on the relationship between organizational justice and intent to stay were confirmed. Conclusion: Based on the findings of this study, job satisfaction and organizational commitment were found to fully mediate the relationship between organizational justice and intent to stay. Therefore, to enhance the intent to stay among junior nursing officers, it is considered necessary to develop supportive measures and establish systems within the military and nursing corps that strengthen organizational justice for junior nursing officers.
Purpose This study investigated the effect of new nurses' metacognition on their retention intention and the dual mediating effect of job satisfaction and organizational commitment in the relationship between those two variables. Methods: Participants included 154 new nurses with 12 months or less of clinical experience working in general hospitals in Seoul. Using a structured questionnaire, data were collected from September 30 to October 29, 2024 and analyzed using IBM SPSS version 29.0 and the Process Macro 4.2 program. Results: Metacognition had a positive effect on job satisfaction (B=0.60, p<.001). Job satisfaction had significant positive effects on organizational commitment (B=0.84, p<.001) and retention intention (B=1.31, p<.001), while organizational commitment had a significant positive effect on retention intention (B=0.65, p=.016). The sequential mediating effect of job satisfaction and organizational commitment was confirmed within the relationship between metacognition and retention intention in new nurses (effect=0.33, 95% confidence interval: 0.03-0.71). Conclusion: The results of this study suggest the presence of a causal structure in which higher metacognition is associated with greater job satisfaction in new nurses; this leads them to commit to the organization, eventually increasing their retention intention.
Purpose To examine the impact of reading the text of the Nightingale Pledge aloud at the beginning of the shift on nursing workplace spirituality, organizational commitment, and job satisfaction among hospital nurses.
Methods We used a non-randomized controlled trial design. Forty-four nurses from four wards with similar work environments at M General Hospital in B City were enrolled. The data were analyzed using a x2 test, t-test, and generalized estimating equations.
Results In both groups, we observed a significant group and time interaction effect for nursing workplace spirituality (Wald x2=4.50, p=.015) and organizational commitment (Wald x2=11.33, p=.001). Nursing workplace spirituality was significantly higher in the experimental group than in the control group at eight weeks after the intervention (t=-3.41, p=.001). Likewise, organizational commitment was significantly higher in the experimental group than in the control group at four and eight weeks after the intervention (Z=-1.97, p=.049; Z=-2.71, p=.007, respectively). Job satisfaction did not significantly before and after the intervention.
Conclusion Despite the short time commitment, reading aloud the text of the Nightingale Pledge at the beginning of shift had positive effects on hospital nurses’ nursing workplace spirituality and organizational commitment.
