Reikšminiai žodžiai: vidinė motyvacija, pasitenkinimas darbu, slaugytojai, profesinė veikla. Darbo tikslas: ištirti, kaip vidiniai motyvaciniai veiksniai susiję su slaugytojų pasitenkinimą darbu lemiančiais veiksniais. Tyrimo medžiaga ir metodai. Tyrimo imtį sudarė 186 slaugytojos, dirbančios ligoninės chirurginiuose (94 respondentės) ir terapiniuose skyriuose (92 respondentės). Slaugytojų amžius svyravo nuo 23 iki 61 metų (vidurkis 42,4 ± 8,9 metų). Aukštąjį universitetinį išsilavinimą turėjo 40, neuniversitetinį aukštąjį – 60 slaugytojų, likusios – įgijusios aukštesnįjį išsilavinimą. Tyrimui naudota anketinė anoniminė apklausa, surinkti demografiniai, socialiniai slaugytojų duomenys. Pasitenkinimas darbu tirtas naudojant P. E. Spector pasitenkinimo darbu klausimyną („The Job Satisfaction Survey“, 1997), o profesinės veiklos vidiniai motyvai tirti naudojant Profesinės veiklos motyvacijos klausimyną. Rezultatai. Bendras pasitenkinimo darbu rodiklis parodė, kad slaugos darbuotojų pasitenkinimas darbu yra vidutinis (gauta balų suma 123,69, o skalės vidurkis – 126 balai). Slaugytojos yra labiau patenkintos geru vadovavimu, bendradarbiais, darbo pobūdžiu ir komunikacija, mažiau – atlyginimu, karjeros galimybėmis, papildomomis lengvatomis, galimais apdovanojimais ir darbo sąlygomis. Svarbiausias profesinės veiklos vidinis motyvas – asmenybės įsitvirtinimas darbe. Išvados. Slaugytojų bendras pasitenkinimas darbu yra vidutinis. Esant didesniam slaugytojų amžiui, darbo stažui ir krūviui, pasitenkinimas darbu siejamas su geresniu atlyginimu, papildomomis lengvatomis, o jaunesnio amžiaus slaugytojų – su karjeros galimybėmis, santykiais su bendradarbiais. Svarbiausias profesinės veiklos vidinis motyvas yra įsitvirtinti kolektyve, kuris ypač stiprus aukštesnįjį ir aukštąjį neuniversitetinį išsilavinimą turinčioms bei dirbančioms chirurgijos skyriuose slaugytojoms. Profesinio meistriškumo motyvai svarbesni aukštąjį universitetinį išsilavinimą turinčioms slaugytojoms. Kuo stipresnis asmenybės įsitvirtinimas darbo kolektyve, tuo didesnis pasitenkinimas darbu ir jo pobūdžiu. Silpnesnė asmeninio įnašo ir profesinio meistriškumo vidinė motyvacija didino pasitenkinimą bendradarbiais, lengvatomis ir apdovanojimais.

The Impact

Objective: To assess the critical care nurses’ perception of their caring behaviors and factors affecting these behaviors.Methods: Participants of this descriptive correlational exploratory study included 277 critical care nurses selected conveniently from nurses worked in all critical care units in King Khalid Hospital, Jeddah. A self-reported questionnaire namely, “Critical Care Nurses Caring Behavior Perception” developed by the researchers after reviewing related literature was used to assess caring behaviors and their affecting factors as perceived by critical care nurses.Results: Seventy percent of the nurses aged between 31 to 50 years old and more than half of nurses had ICU experience ranged from 6 to 10 years, while two thirds of nurses had no previous training about caring behaviors. The study findings revealed that the majority of nurses had high scores of perceived caring behaviors, whereas the mean of their perception was 296.96 ± 18.32. There was a statistical significant positive relationship between nurses’ perception and their work circumstances, workload, job satisfaction, educational background and patient characteristics.Conclusions: It is important to consider critical units’ circumstances, nurses’ educational background, job satisfaction, as well as the nature of critically ill patients in order to promote nurses awareness and implementation of caring behaviors. Moreover, replication of the current study using qualitative approach for in-depth analysis of the impact of factors could affecting caring behaviors on nurses’ perception in various highly specialized critical care units.

BACKGROUND: Cyclical fluctuations in turnover of critical care nurses are a large and complex problem. Managers' leadership characteristics may be a determinant of critical care nurses' intent to stay in the job. OBJECTIVE: To examine the direct and indirect effects of nurse-managers' characteristics of power, influence, and leadership style on critical care nurses' intent to stay in the nurses' employment positions. METHODS: The sample was 255 staff nurses in intensive care units at 4 urban hospitals. Established instruments with sound reliability and validity were used to assess the predictor, intervening, and outcome variables. Path analysis was used to examine the relationships in a conceptual model of intent to stay. RESULTS: The model explained 52% of the variance in intent to stay, and managers' characteristics were significant at each stage. Managers' position power and influence over work coordination had a direct link to intent to stay; structuring expectations and consideration contributed indirectly through the variables of instrumental communication, autonomy, and group cohesion. Instrumental communication, autonomy, and group cohesion decreased job stress and thus increased job satisfaction. Job satisfaction was directly linked with intent to stay. CONCLUSIONS: Inclusion of nurse-managers' characteristics explained more variance in intent to stay than did previous models. Managers with leadership styles that seek and value contributions from staff, promote a climate in which information is shared effectively, promote decision making at the staff nurse level, exert position power, and influence coordination of work to provide a milieu that maintains a stable cadre of nurses.

OBJECTIVE: To develop a conceptual path model to explain the effects of a set of personal and work-related independent variables and the dependent variables of situational stress, job stress and job motivation on job satisfaction among critical care nurses. DESIGN: A prospective descriptive study using a conceptual path model. SETTING: Nine hospitals licensed for at least 250 beds in the northeastern, northwestern, northcentral, and southern regions of Florida. SAMPLE: Three hundred female critical care nurses employed in the nine hospitals who had worked full-time for at least 3 months. MEASUREMENTS: Subjects were administered a demographic and work survey questionnaire, Daily Hassles Instrument, Psychological Hardiness Test and the Job Diagnostic Inventory. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: A conceptual path model was constructed to illustrate the effects of a set of personal and work-related independent variables and the dependent variables of situational stress, job stress and job motivation on job satisfaction. MAIN RESULTS: Path analysis of a job satisfaction model resulted in a causal progression of situational stress leading to either job stress or job motivation, both affecting job satisfaction. The results showed that job stress, job motivation, job expectations, meaningful work, knowledge of work results, commitment to career, health difficulties, task identity, supervision, dealing with others at work, opportunity for advancement, pay and job security had a significant effect on job satisfaction. CONCLUSION: Thirteen variables had a significant effect on job satisfaction and explained 63% of the variance. The four most significant effects on job satisfaction were opportunities for advancement, meaningfulness of work, pay and supervision. Commitment to the career, task identity and job security had a modest effect on job satisfaction.
