Abstract:
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to provide basic data required to improve nursing resources management and nurse organizations. METHODS: The data were collected using a questionnaire. Participants were 294 nurses who were working at 8 hospitals with more than 500 beds located in G and C cities, Korea. Data analysis was done using t-test, ANOVA, Scheffé test, Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise multiple regression analysis with SPSS. RESULTS: There were significant correlations between self-leadership, clinical competence, job satisfaction and job involvement. Factors affecting job involvement were job satisfaction, self-leadership, length of clinical career and length of career in current department. Job satisfaction was the most influential factor with an explanatory power of 41%. CONCLUSION: Findings show that to strengthen job involvement, identification and management of factors that affect job satisfaction and self-leadership are required and relevant training and strategies should be developed and used.
