Abstract:
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of emotional labor and organizational justice on organizational socialization of emergency room nurses. METHODS: This study was done over a 4 month period, with 185 emergency room nurses from general and tertiary hospitals in 2 regions of Korea. The nurses completed self-report questionnaires from August 20 to September 30, 2015. The data from the self-report questionnaires were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and Hierachial multiple regression analysis with the IBM SPSS 21.0 program. RESULTS: The significant predictors of organizational socialization for the emergency room nurses were procedural justice (β=.38), emotional labor (β=.−23) and distributive justice (β=.19). These variables explained 54% of the variance in organizational socialization of emergency room nurses. CONCLUSION: The results indicate that it is necessary to formulate a plan for enhancing procedural justice and distributive justice, and for decreasing emotional labor.
