Purpose
This study investigates the mediating effect of job embeddedness in the relationship between nursing professionalism and turnover intention among clinical nurses. Methods: A nationwide online survey was conducted using a structured questionnaire. Participants included 204 clinical nurses from tertiary hospitals in South Korea. Data on general characteristics, nursing professionalism, job embeddedness, and turnover intention were collected through self-reported questionnaires from March 19 to March 22, 2024. The analysis involved descriptive statistics, independent t-tests, one-way analysis of variance, Scheffé test, Pearson's correlation coefficients, multiple linear regression analysis, and bootstrapping, using SPSS/WIN version 29.0 and the SPSS PROCESS macro 4.2 version programs. Results: The mean score of nursing professionalism was 3.48±0.45 out of 5, job embeddedness was 3.13±0.52 out of 5, and turnover intention was 2.80±1.00 out of 5. Nursing professionalism did not directly impact turnover intention (B=-0.07, p=.649). Job embeddedness acted as a mediating factor in the relationship between nursing professionalism and turnover intention (B=-0.46, p<.05). Conclusion: These findings suggest that increasing job embeddedness can reduce nurses' turnover intention. Therefore, to decrease nurses' turnover intention, it is essential to enhance nursing professionalism while simultaneously promoting job embeddedness.

Purpose
This study aimed to explore the mediating role of self-transcendence in the relationship between job stress and wellness among nurses based on self-transcendence theory. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional design was adopted, and data were collected via an online survey using Google Forms from July 22 to August 20, 2024. This study analyzed data from 290 nurses working in 10 hospitals. Correlation and multiple regression analyses were conducted, alongside simple mediation analysis with bootstrapping, to evaluate the mediating role of self-transcendence. All statistical analyses were performed using Jamovi software. Results: Positive correlations were identified among job stress, self-transcendence, and wellness in nurses. Regression analyses revealed that self-transcendence was positively associated with wellness (β=.62, p<.001), while job stress had no significant association with wellness. Mediation analysis demonstrated that self-transcendence significantly mediated the relationship between job stress and wellness (β=.22, p<.001). Conclusion: The findings highlight the influence of self-transcendence on the relationship between job stress and wellness among nurses. This underscores the importance of designing interventions to enhance self-transcendence as a strategy to promote wellness among nurses.

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
This study examined the effects of role conflict, work environment, and meaning of work on job embeddedness among physician assistants to provide foundational data for their retention and professional development. Methods: A descriptive survey was conducted with 180 physician assistants from six tertiary hospitals in Seoul and Chungcheong Province. Data were collected from July to November 2022. Role conflict, work environment, meaning of work, and job embeddedness were measured using validated scales. Data were analyzed using SAS Enterprise Guide 7.1 with descriptive statistics, the independent t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression analysis. Results: Job embeddedness correlated positively with meaning of work (r=.28, p<.001) and work environment (r=.22, p=.002) and weakly with role conflict (r=.14, p=.045). Multiple regression identified meaning of work (B=0.32, p<.001), role conflict (B=0.13, p=.005), work environment (B=0.14, p=.018), and work type (B=-3.95, p=.004) as significant predictors (Adj. R²=19.8%). Meaning of work had the greatest impact. Conclusion: Enhancing job embeddedness among physician assistants requires improving the work environment, clarifying professional roles, and strengthening professional recognition and organizational support.

Purpose
This study explored how Generation Z characteristics—specifically work–life balance, growth needs, and individualism—along with work environment, emotional labor, and interpersonal skills, affect job embeddedness among newly graduated nurses. It also examined whether job embeddedness mediates the relationship between these factors and turnover intention. Methods: A correlational descriptive study was conducted by analyzing survey data collected from 131 clinical nurses born between 1995 and 2000, who had less than three years of nursing work experience in South Korea. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was employed to identify the independent effects of Generation Z characteristics on job embeddedness, over and above the effects of work environment, emotional labor, and interpersonal skills. Path analysis using bootstrapping method was conducted to examine the mediating role of job embeddedness in turnover intention. Results: Needs for growth and work environment were significant predictors of job embeddedness among newly graduated nurses. Furthermore, the effects of needs for growth and work environment on turnover intention were significantly mediated by job embeddedness. Conclusion: Understanding the characteristics of Generation Z, particularly their needs for growth, along with the work environment, is essential for enhancing job embeddedness among newly graduated nurses. Strengthening job embeddedness can effectively reduce their turnover intention.

Purpose
This study aimed to investigate the effects of job characteristics and professional self-concept on competency in forensic nursing among operating room nurses at university hospitals. Methods: Data were collected from 164 operating room nurses employed at university hospitals. The collected data were analyzed in SPSS 23.0, using the mean, standard deviation, independent t-test, one-way analysis of variance, Scheffé post-hoc test, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression analysis. Results: Professional self-concept showed a statistically significant positive correlation with forensic nursing competency (r=.60, p<.001). The following factors significantly influenced forensic nursing competency among operating room nurses: professional self-concept (β=.69, p<.001), total career lengths of <5 years (β=.21, p=.006) and 5-9 years (β=.20, p=.011), and job characteristics (β=.19, p=.007). A three-step regression model was statistically significant (F=29.74, p<.001) and the total explanatory power of the regression model was 41.4%. Conclusion: This study identified that professional self-concept, total career years, and job characteristics as the most significant factors influencing operating room nurses' forensic nursing competency. Therefore, it will be necessary to develop educational programs to improve professional self-concept and job characteristics.

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.

Purpose
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between socio-cognitive mindfulness, job stress, social support, and turnover intention among general hospital nurses and identify the factors influencing nurses’ turnover intention.
Methods
A descriptive survey was conducted among 218 nurses from five general hospitals located in G metropolitan city. The participants completed a questionnaire measuring the study variables, and the data were analyzed using t-tests, ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and hierarchical multiple regression analysis in SPSS/WIN 28.0.
Results
Significant differences were found in turnover intention by gender (t=-2.12, p=.036), family type (t=-3.09, p=.002), work department (F=7.01, p<.001), and work type (t=2.55, p=.011). Socio-cognitive mindfulness was positively related to social support (r=.331, p<.001), and turnover intention was positively related to job stress (r=.347, p<.001). The factors influencing nurses’ turnover intention included job stress (β=.317, p<.001), work department (artificial kidney room: β=-.287, p=.004; emergency room: β=-.219, p=.015), social support (β=-.183, p=.005), and work type (shift work: β=.170, p=.036), respectively. These factors explained 23.4% of the variance.
Conclusion
The findings indicate the need to develop programs to effectively cope with job stress and implement mentoring systems or psychological support programs to reduce turnover intention among nurses at the organizational level.

Purpose
This study aimed to explore the influence of teamwork and grit on job adaptation and intention to remain among advanced beginner nurses.
Methods
A cross-sectional descriptive research design employing a survey method was used. The study involved 203 advanced beginner nurses with 13~36 months of experience working at a tertiary hospital. Collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-tests, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and hierarchical regression analysis.
Results
Job adaptation positively correlated with teamwork (r=.58, p<.001) and grit (r=.65, p<.001). Intention to remain was also positively correlated with teamwork (r=.32, p<.001) and grit (r=.59, p<.001). A hierarchical multiple regression model including control variables, teamwork, and grit accounted for 64% of the factors influencing job adaptation. Another hierarchical multiple regression model, incorporating control variables, teamwork, and grit, explained 44% of the factors influencing the intention to remain. Among the related factors, grit emerged as the most influential in regarding job adaption and intention to remain.
Conclusion
These findings underscore the importance of establishing a support system to bolster grit, enhancing adaptation to the job and fostering intention to remain among advanced beginner nurses.

Purpose
This study aimed to determine the impact of work environment, missed nursing care, and non-nursing tasks on the job stress of hospital nurses.
Methods
A descriptive, cross-sectional survey of 164 nurses working in three hospitals was conducted. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way analysis of variance, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis using SPSS/WIN 26.0.
Results
Hospital Nurses' job stress was negatively correlated with the work environment (r=-.37, p<.001). Job stress had a statistically significant positive correlation with non-nursing tasks (r=.34, p<.001); however, it had no significant correlation with missed nursing care (r=.05, p=.552). Regression model analysis revealed that the variables associated with job stress were non-nursing tasks (β=.29, p<.001) and the foundation for quality nursing care (β=-.25, p=.034), which are subdomains of the work environment. In contrast, missed nursing care was not determined to be a significant factor.
Conclusion
To effectively manage nurses' job stress, nurse managers should provide higher quality care by reducing the number of non-nursing tasks and creating a positive work environment, especially by providing adequate nursing workforce and material support.

Purpose
This study investigated whether the work environment affects nurses' turnover intention with career motivation and job satisfaction acting as mediating factors.
Methods
Data were collected from January 6-25, 2022, using a cross-sectional design. The participants were 205 nurses who had worked for more than six months at four small-to-medium-sized general hospitals in South Korea. Data analysis consisted of descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation coefficients, independent t-tests, one-way ANOVAs, Scheffé test, and mediation analysis using Hayes’ PROCESS Macro Model 6.
Results
The nursing work environment had a significant positive association with career motivation and job satisfaction and negative effects on nurses' turnover intention. The single mediating effect of job satisfaction and the serial mediation effects of career motivation and job satisfaction on the relationship between the nursing work environment and turnover intention were significant. Thus, nurses' positive perceptions of the work environment strengthened career motivation, which in turn increased job satisfaction and reduced turnover intention.
Conclusion
Providing a healthy work environment to nurses can help reduce their turnover intention. Therefore, the government and hospitals should implement human resource strategies to improve nursing work environments and take steps to enhance career motivation and job satisfaction to strengthen nurse retention.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to establish a structural model explaining the factors affecting advanced beginner-stage nurses' intention to continue employment. This model was designed to provide basic data for improving the intention to continue employment among advanced beginner-stage nurses and to efficiently manage nurses as human resources.
Methods
In order to construct a hypothetical model, latent factors affecting nurses' intention to continue employment were identified through systematic review and meta-analysis. As a result of systematic review, hypothetical model was constructed with nursing professionalism, calling, work environment, positive psychological capital, and job satisfaction. Structural equation modeling was then conducted through SPSS 25.0, AMOS 22.0, and Mplus 6.12 statistics programs.
Results
First, none of the pathways affected by nursing professionalism were statistically significant. Second, the final structural model showed fit very well based on the fit indices RMSEA=.062, SRMR=.052, RMR=.048, CFI=0.95, and TLI=0.94.
Conclusion
This study’s results identified that job satisfaction, calling, work environment, and positive psychological capital affected advanced beginner-stage nurses' intention to continue employment. Among these, job satisfaction was the most powerful variable influencing the decision to continue employment for advanced beginner-stage nurses.

Purpose
This study examined the effect of missed nursing care on nursing sensitive indicators.
Methods
A nationwide cross-sectional survey was conducted using structured questionnaires. Data of 174 clinical nurses employed in general or tertiary hospitals were collected through proportional quota sampling; the quota used was the location of a working hospital in South Korea. Data were collected through an online survey and snowball sampling from July 16 to July 20, 2022. The collected data were analyzed using IBM SPSS 26.0.
Results
Missed nursing care had statistically significant negative correlations with patient safety management activity and job satisfaction, and significant positive correlation with turnover intention. Significant correlation was not found between missed nursing care and adverse event experiences. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis revealed that missed nursing care explained an additional 21%p of patient safety management activity, 14%p of job satisfaction, and 3%p of turnover intention. Thus, missed nursing care was found to be a statistically significant predictor of patient safety management activity, job satisfaction, and turnover intention.
Conclusion
Missed nursing care significantly affects nursing sensitive indicators. To improve positive outcomes and decrease negative outcomes, nurses and nursing managers must make efforts to minimize missed nursing care.

Purpose
This study examined hospital nurses’ perception of work-life balance, nursing work environment, nursing organizational culture, and job satisfaction before turnover, and compared differences in variables between current clinical nurses and non-clinical nurses.
Methods
This descriptive study involved 172 nurses with over six months experience, who changed jobs within the last 5 years in G Province. Data were collected from September 5th-22nd, 2022, and analyzed through independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, and Pearson correlation coefficient using SPSS/WIN 25.0 program.
Results
Total work-life balance (t=3.85, p<.001), work-family balance (t=4.79, p<.001), work-leisure balance (t=2.96, p=.004), work-growth balance (t=3.01, p=.003), and overall work-life balance (t=2.95, p=.004) in work-life balance, the role of professionalism (r=2.05, p=.042) and interpersonal relationships (t=2.59, p=.011) in job satisfaction, the relationship-oriented nursing organizational culture (t=2.68, p=.008), and the nurse-doctor relationship within the nursing work environment (t=2.51, p=.013) were all significantly higher among current clinical nurses than non-clinical nurses.
Conclusion
Hospital-level interventions should be established and implemented to improve work-life balance, the relationship-oriented nursing organizational culture, and job satisfaction through interprofessional relationships to retain hospital nurses.

Purpose
This study aimed to assess the influence of job embeddedness, professional self-concept, and work-life balance on clinical nurses’ workplace retention intention.
Methods
A descriptive cross-sectional survey was conducted from July 27 to August 2, 2022, involving 296 nurses at a university hospital in Seoul. The questionnaire-based data collected were analyzed using t-tests, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and multiple regression.
Results
The mean score for intention to stay is 4.92±1.05 out of 8. The mean scores for job embeddedness, professional self-concept, and work-life balance were 2.91±0.48 out of 5, 2.61±0.28 out of 4, and 3.10±0.71 out of 5, respectively. Job embeddedness (β=.17, p=.002) and professional self-concept (β=.42, p<.001) were significantly associated with clinical nurses’ intention to stay in their workplace. Specifically, the “community suitability” subfactor of job embeddedness (β=.16, p=.003) and the “satisfaction” subfactor of professional self-concept (β=.58, p<.001) were significantly related to nurses’ intention to stay. No significant relationship was found between work-life balance and intention to stay.
Conclusion
Nurses’ job embeddedness and professional self-concept significantly affected their intention to stay. Therefore, fostering community bonding outside the organization and increasing professional satisfaction are suggested to increase clinical nurses’ intentions to stay.

Purpose
This study is a hypothetical model of the effect of the leader-member exchange relationship on psychological ownership, job engagement, and turnover intention.
Methods
Data collection was conducted for general nurses who have worked for at least 6 months in a university hospital. The collected data were analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 25.0, and AMOS 18.0 program was used to conduct confirmatory factor analysis as well as goodness of fit verification and hypothesis testing for the hypothetical model.
Results
The leader-member exchange had a significant, static effect on psychological ownership. The leader-member exchange relationship did not have a significant effect on job engagement and psychological ownership had a significant, static effect on job engagement. The leader-member exchange relationship did not have a significant effect on turnover intention and psychological ownership and job engagement had significant, negative effects on turnover intention.
Conclusion
Intervention and the development of programs to increase the psychological ownership and job engagement of members are proposed to improve the leader-member exchange relationship through leadership education and training and reduce the turnover intention of nurses.

Purpose
This study examined the variations in nursing competence and job satisfaction across different career stages. Additionally, it explored the effect of nursing competence on job satisfaction within each career stages.
Methods
Participants were 468 nurses working at a university hospital in B city. Data collection was conducted using self-report questionnaires from April 1 to 15, 2020. The data were analyzed descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA, Scheffé test, and multiple regression analysis employing SPSS 23.0.
Results
General nursing competence improved significantly after the proficiency stage. Care execution and critical thinking were improved as nurses progressed from the novice to the advanced beginner stage. Additionally, communication showed progress in the competent stage. Furthermore, responsibility and self-development were improved after the proficiency stage. Among the sub-competencies examined, self-development, care execution, and communication significantly influenced the job satisfaction of a nurse’s career. Moreover, self-development was influential at all stages.
Conclusion
This study shows that there was no substantial improvement in nursing competencies as they progressed through various career stages. Self-development was the most crucial sub-competence impacting job satisfaction, with the effects of the sub-competencies varying across career stages. These results will aid in planning clinical continuing education and formulating policies to enhance nurse competency.

Purpose
This descriptive correlation study was designed to identify the job characteristics of advanced practice nurses (APNs) and the degree of nursing professionalism as factors influencing the political competency of APNs. Additionally, the relationship between these two factors and political competency was analyzed.
Methods
Data were collected through an online survey of 118 APNs from June 16 to September 16, 2021. The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics, a t-test, ANOVA, Scheffé ́’s test, Pearson’s correlation, and a multiple regression analysis using SPSS/WIN 25.0.
Results
Statistically significant differences were noted in the political competency of APNs based on age, workplace, position, experience as an APN, political education, and political party membership. Furthermore, political competency positively correlated with job characteristics and nursing professionalism. The factors affecting the political competency of APNs included skill variety, workplace, political education, political party membership, and nursing professionalism.
Conclusion
Findings of this study confirmed the importance of the political competency of APNs. Furthermore, policy efforts to promote independent job development reflecting the job characteristics of APNs and improvement in nursing professionalism are required, and support from professional nursing organizations is needed.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship between job stress and turnover intention and the mediating effect of job embeddedness on the relationship among hospital nurses in rural areas. Methods: This is a descriptive study. A total of 277 registered nurses were enrolled in the study from three hospitals in rural areas of South Korea from April 29 to May 10, 2019. The participants completed self-reporting questionnaires, which measured job stress, turnover intention, and job embeddedness, and collected demographic information. The data were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics 25.0, for multiple regression, and a simple mediation model applying the Hayes PROCESS macro with a 95% bias-corrected bootstrap confidence interval (5,000 bootstrap resampling). Results: Job stress had a direct effect (c’=0.35, p<.001) on turnover intention. It was also demonstrated that job embeddedness partially mediated the relationship between job stress and turnover intention among the hospital nurses (a ․ b=-0.40 × -0.58=0.23, 95% Boot C). Conclusion: The job stress and turnover intention of nurses in rural areas are not higher than those in large cities. Nevertheless, hospital administrators need to provide a nursing workforce policy to increase job embeddedness and reduce nurses’ turnover intention.

Purpose
This study aimed to elucidate the situational context and describe the factors and attributes pertaining to occupational stress among hospital nurses in Korea. Methods: Secondary data from focus group interviews conducted with 26 hospital nurses were analyzed using the content analysis method. Data were analyzed using Graneheim and Lundman’s content analysis method. Results: Based on the job demand-resource theory, the contents were divided into two major themes: the “excessive job demands” and the “shortage of job resources”. The first theme was summarized into the following four categories: excessive workload and work intensity, complex and difficult work demands, hazardous work environment, and role- and relationship-related conflicts. The second theme was summarized into the following five categories: inadequate staffing, insufficient education and training, lack of support system, poor monetary compensation, and low internal compensation. Conclusion: The occupational stress factors of Korean hospital nurses can be summarized as excessive job demands and a lack job resources.

Purpose
This study was designed to construct and test a structural equation model of nurses’ experience of workplace incivility based on the model of the Affective Events Theory. Methods: A total of 299 nurses from five general hospitals responded to structured questionnaires measuring personality traits (emotionality and agreeableness), structural empowerment, workplace incivility experience, emotional exhaustion and job satisfaction. Results: The hypothetical model showed a good fit with the data: χ² /df=1.88, GFI=.93, CFI=.95, NFI=.91, TLI=.94, SRMR=.03, RMSEA=.05. Structural empowerment had an effect on the experience of workplace incivility among nurses, but the influence of personality was not significant. Workplace incivility had significant direct effects on emotional exhaustion and job satisfaction. The experience of workplace incivility mediates the impact of structural empowerment on emotional exhaustion and job satisfaction. Conclusion: Structural empowerment in nursing unit can reduce nurses’ experience of workplace incivility and emotional exhaustion and increase their job satisfaction. At the same time, nurses’ experience of workplace incivility can increase their emotional exhaustion and decrease job satisfaction. This suggests that nurse managers should consider enhancing structural empowerment and develop programs or activities to improve it and manage workplace inciviltiy.

Purpose
This study aimed to investigate factors affecting the job embeddedness of clinical nurses. Methods: Participants were 204 nurses working in four general hospitals. Data were collected from September 3 to October 8, 2020 and analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 25.0 program. Results: The mean scores for positive psychological capital, organizational justice, and job embeddedness were 3.31±0.38, 3.16±0.46, and 3.17±0.38, respectively. The job embeddedness of the participants had a positive correlation with optimism (r=.57, p<.001), hope (r=.56, p<.001), self-efficacy (r=.44, p<.001), and resilience (r=.38, p<.001) in the sub-factors of positive psychological capital. It also had a positive correlation with procedural (r=.58, p<.001), distributive (r=.52, p<.001), and interactional (r=.35, p<.001) justice in the sub-factors of organizational justice. The factors affecting nurses’ job embeddness were procedural justice, optimism, position, distributive justice, and hope. In addition, the explanatory power of the model was 60% (F=39.11, p<.001). Conclusion: The results suggest that to improve the job embeddedness, positive psychology-based coaching and counseling programs suitable for individual clinical nurses, organizational management through transparent procedures and objective and systematic distribution are needed. In addition, a position system suitable for the characteristics of a nursing organization is required.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to identify the work activities of nurse-led rapid response teams (RRT). Methods: For this study a methodological approach was used to identify work activities for nurse-led RRT. The study was conducted in two stages. The first step was to analyze the work activities of domestic nurse-led RRTs using the interview method, and then develop a questionnaire based on the results of the interviews. As a second step, field surveys were conducted by nurse-led RRT nurses to investigate importance and performance based on the developed questionnaire. Results: Fifty-eight work activities were identified for nurse-led RRTs in the following nine core areas: advanced nursing practice, education, counseling, consultation, collaboration, ethical decision-making, research, evidence-based practice, and leadership. Conclusion: The identified work activities for nurse-led RRTs will be used as basic data in nurse-led RRTs job description, developing job standards and can also serve as basic data for developing a nurse-led RRT educational curriculum. The results of this study suggest that follow-up research is needed to develop job standards based on the identified nurse-led RRT's work activities.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to explore the frequency of Type D Personality Pattern (TDPP) in shift work nurses who have irregular lifestyles and based on TDPP, to compare health promotion behavior (HPB), subjective health status (SHS), and job satisfaction. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional design was used with data collected from a convenience sample of 139 shift work nurses. The self-report questionnaires included Personality Scale, Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile II, Health Self Rating Scale, and Job Satisfaction Scale. Results: Fifty three nurses (38.1%) were found to have TDPP. Although there were no significant differences between groups with TDPP and with no TDPP, nurses with TDPP tend to be younger, live alone, and have less years of clinical experience. Also, SHS, HPB and job satisfaction were significantly lower in the nurses with TDPP than those with no TDPP. SHS was positively correlated with HPB and job satisfaction. Also, job satisfaction was positively correlated with HPB. Conclusion: TDPP in shift work nurses should be considered as TDPP is not a trait but a pattern. Therefore for shift work nurses, modifiable strategies should be effective in reducing the risk of developing TDPP and enhancing the nurses’ SHS, HPB, and job satisfaction.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between verbal abuse, professional quality of life, and job stress among emergency nurses and to identify the mediating effect of job stress on professional quality of life. Methods: The participants were 121 emergency nurses working in general hospitals. The data were collected from December 1st, 2017 to February 1st, 2018. Collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and three-step mediated regression analysis. Results: As a result of correlation analysis, verbal abuse job stress had significant negative correlations with the professional quality of life, whereas verbal abuse experience had a positive correlation with job stress. Job stress showed significant effects on verbal abuse experience and the professional quality of life, with the explanatory powers being 43% and 29%, respectively, indicating partial mediator effects in the relationship between the three variables. Conclusion: Verbal abuse experience and job stress in emergency nurses could reduce the professional quality of life, and their relationship by manifested partial mediating effects. Therefore it is necessary to decrease verbal abuse experience and job stress to further improve the professional quality of life in emergency nurses.

Purpose
This study was done to analyze effects of leader-member exchange as perceived by nurses who returned to work after parental leave: conflict between work and family via job stress.
Methods
A cross-sectional study design was adopted and data were collected from 140 nurses. Collected data were analyzed using the SPSS 23.0 program (descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and regression analysis).
Results
Mean scores were 3.44±0.64 out of 5 for leader-member exchange, 3.45±0.59 out of 5 for job stress, and 2.82±0.80 out of 5 for conflict between work and family. The leader-member exchange had negative correlations with job stress (r=-.31, p=.003) and conflict between work and family (r=-.36, p<.001). The leader-member exchange had direct impacts on conflict between work and family (β=-.26, p=.002) and indirect via job stress (β=.35, p<.001). Job stress had partial mediating effects on relations between leader-member exchange and conflict between work and family (Z=-3.00, p<.001). The leader-member exchange and job stress explained 41% of the conflict between work and family.
Conclusion
The findings from this study indicate that active human resource management policies should be established in order to increase the leader-member exchange.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing job satisfaction among ambulatory care nurses.
Methods
Data were collected through a self-evaluation survey of 129 nurses in one tertiary hospital. Data were analyzed using paired t-test, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Importance-Performance Analysis, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression analysis.
Results
The mean scores were: for importance, 3.18 out of 4, for performance, 2.24 out of 4, for professional self-concept, 2.92 out of 4, and for job satisfaction 2.77 out of 5. There were statistically significant positive correlations between professional self-concept and job satisfaction (r=.37, p<.001). Stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that satisfaction with professional self-concept, clinical career, and age explained 47.0% of the job satisfaction of ambulatory care nurses (F=37.51, p<.001). Satisfaction with professional self-concept, clinical career, and age were statistically significant predictors of job satisfaction.
Conclusion
Findings indicate motivation programs according to clinical career would be useful to improve job satisfaction of ambulatory care nurses. Additionally, continuous education should be provided to strengthen the professional self-concept of nursing professionals in both undergraduate curricula and clinical fields.

Purpose
This study was done to identify mediating effects of calling and role breadth self-efficacy in the relationship between supportive supervision and job crafting for nurses in general hospitals.
Methods
A descriptive correlational design was used. Participants were 128 nurses in general hospitals. Measurements included the Supportive Supervision Scale, the Job Crafting Scale, the Korean version of the Calling and Vocation Questionnaire, and the Role Breadth Self-efficacy Scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficients analysis, and multiple regression analysis with Hayes's method for mediation.
Results
Supportive supervision showed a significant positive correlation with calling (r=.51, p<.001) and role breadth self-efficacy (r=.40, p<.001). Job crafting was also significantly correlated with supportive supervision (r=.51, p<.001), calling (r=.42, p<.001), and role breadth self-efficacy (r=.38, p<.001). Furthermore, calling (β=.15, p=.013) and role breadth self-efficacy (β=.15, p=.011) showed a mediation effect on the relationship between supportive supervision and job crafting.
Conclusion
The impact of supportive supervision on job crafting in general hospital nurses was mediated by calling and role breadth self-efficacy. This result suggests that strategies for enhancing supportive supervision, calling and role breadth self-efficacy of nurses in general hospitals should be considered when developing programs for improving nurses’ job crafting.

Purpose
This study was to investigate the structural relationship between nurses' motivation and effectiveness in their occupations using the Job Crafting model. This study was identified that the nurses' occupational motivation affected task, cognitive, and relational crafting. The factors affecting job effectiveness, organizational commitment and job embeddedness were also identified.
Methods
The survey was conducted with 596 participating nurses working in common general hospitals and tertiary hospitals within South Korea. A structural equation model was constructed to verify the fitness of this model. Data was analyzed using SPSS 23.0 and AMOS 21.0 programs.
Results
The identified factors affecting occupational motivation was positive affectivity job crafting. Cognitive crafting had a significant impact on task and relational crafting, but task crafting had no significant influence on organizational commitment. Organizational commitment was found to have a significant impact on job embeddedness. As a result of comparing by size of the hospital, the Job Crafting model validated in this study showed higher fitness at tertiary hospitals than in common general hospitals.
Conclusion
We found that nurses' job crafting behavior and occupational motivation cause them to have a significant influence on organizational commitment and job embeddedness, which are factors of job effectiveness.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of nursing organizational culture, organizational health, and job crafting on intent to stay among registered nurses. Methods: A cross sectional study design was used in this study. The participants were 210 nurses working at three hospitals in B city, South Korea. Data were collected from March 2 to 31 2018. A self-report questionnaire was used. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression analyses with the IBM/SPSS 25.0 for Window Program.
Results
Factors affecting intent to stay among registered nurses included relation oriented culture of nursing organization (β=.17, p=.029), organizational health (β=.16, p=.043), job crafting (β=.17, p=.031), and age(β= .25,p<.001), and these variables explained 25.0% of intent to stay (F=17.37, p<.001).
Conclusion
These findings show that there is a correlation between relation oriented culture of nursing organizational culture, organizational health, job crafting, and intent to stay among registered nurses. In order to increase nurses’ retention, it is important to establish a relation oriented culture in the nursing organization and to improve organizational health. Also, more attention should be paid to create positive job crafting to increase nurses’ intent to stay.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to identify workplace violence experience of new nurses and to investigate effects on organizational variables. Workplace violence experience can lead to new nurses developing negative attitudes towards nursing jobs. A safe organizational culture in which new nurses can work while being protected from workplace violence must be established.
Methods
An online survey was conducted with 180 nurses. Collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and regression analysis.
Results
The total score for workplace violence experience of new nurses was 1.75±0.55. There was a statistically significant negative correlation between verbal (r=-.32, p <.001), threatening (r=-.26, p <.001), and total (r=-.28, p <.001) workplace violence experience and job satisfaction, and a positive correlation between verbal (r=.18, p =.016), threatening (r=.17, p =.024), total (r=.17, p =.021) and turnover intention, respectively. Verbal violence experience was found to be a significant factor influencing job satisfaction, and the explanatory power of the model was 9.5%.
Conclusion
Based on the results of this study, it is necessary to develop a workplace violence prevention program for new nurses and a procedure and reporting system to cope with workplace violence. Furthermore, there is a need to expand a culture of mutual cooperation and a nonviolent atmosphere.

Purpose
This study was done to provide basic data for nursing intervention to increase communication ability of operating room nurses by identifying the relation among their verbal violence experience, job stress, resilience, and communication ability.
Methods
The participants were 136 nurses, working in the operating rooms of six academic and general hospitals located in Seoul and Gyeonggi-Do. Data were collected from May 1st through October 31st, 2016. Collected data were analyzed for frequency and percentage, mean and standard deviation, association among related factors, and stepwise multi-regression using the SPSS 21.0 program.
Results
It was found that the strongest factor influencing the communication ability of operating room nurses was persistence (β=.41, p <.001; sub-item of Resilience), followed by support (β=.26, p =.001; sub-item of Resilience). These two sub-items have positive influences on communication ability of operating room nurses. The lack of professional knowledge and skill (β=-.19, p <.001; sub-item of job stress) and verbal violence experience from nurse (β=-.16, p <.001; sub-item of verbal violence experience) have negative influences on communication ability of operating room nurses. These sub-items explained 47.0% of communication ability of operating room nurses.
Conclusion
The study results can be used as basic data to develop effective communication. Also, the results show the necessity of developing and applying concrete nursing interventions to improve job satisfaction of operating room nurses.
