Purpose
This study aimed to examine the levels of professional autonomy, retention intention, and organizational commitment among public hospital nurses, while also investigating the mediating effect of organizational commitment on the relationship between professional autonomy and intention to remain. Methods Data for this study were collected through an online survey conducted from August 5 to August 11, 2022, targeting 230 nurses across three public hospitals within a single region. Data analysis was performed using SPSS/WIN 23.0. Results Organizational commitment fully mediated the relationship between professional autonomy and retention intentions among public hospital nurses. Positive correlations were observed between professional autonomy and retention intention (r=.24, p<.001), organizational commitment and intention to remain (r=.72, p<.001), as well as professional autonomy and retention intention (r=.34, p<.001). Conclusion ; To enhance the retain intention among public hospital nurses, it is imperative to focus on program development and institutional administrative efforts aimed at ensuring professional autonomy and fostering organizational commitment.
Purpose
This study explores nursing students’ perception and experience of injustice in clinical practice and to devise ways to improve the quality and increase satisfaction with clinical practice. Methods This study was conducted from December 9-28, 2021 among 22 nursing students with clinical practice experience attending two universities in Jeollabuk-do. Focus group interviews were used for collecting data that were analyzed using qualitative content analysis. Results A total of four main analysis units were derived from 220 statements comprising, the original data, and 30 concepts were identified through 112 meaningful statements. The injustice that nursing students perceived during clinical practice consisted of four categories: ‘not respected,’ ‘not guaranteed safety,’ ‘not protected by the system,’ ‘not resolved structural problems in clinical practice.’ Each category was derived from a statement based on the 'injustice in clinical practice' perceived by nursing students in the course of clinical practice. Conclusion To maintain quality in clinical practice and promote nursing students’ satisfaction with clinical practice, continuous problem analysis and multilateral efforts of clinical and educational institutions are considered necessary.
Purpose
This study aimed to identify pro-social behavior, self-determination, and life satisfaction status among nursing students, and to analyze the relationships between these variables and their effects on nursing students’ life satisfaction. Methods: It was conducted from January 10 to January 19, and data from 210 nursing students were collected through the online survey system of an Internet portal site. Results: As a result of the study, pro-social behavior and self-determination (autonomy, competence, relationship (s)), and life satisfaction showed a statistically significant positive correlation with each other. Competence (p<.001) and relationships (p=.018), affected nursing students‘life satisfaction. The higher the competence (B=0.41), the stronger the relationships. Further, the higher the score (B=0.21), the higher the satisfaction. Additionally, it was found that the effect of competence (β=.40) on life satisfaction was higher than that of relationships on life satisfaction (β=.16). Pro-social behavior did not affect nursing students’ life satisfaction (p=.654). Conclusion: Through the results of this study, we suggest the need for efforts to improve nursing students’ life satisfaction by developing and applying various programs that can increase self-determination in the nursing education process.
