PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of resilience and job satisfaction on organizational commitment in Korean-American registered nurses.
METHODS
A cross-sectional study was conducted using a structured questionnaire survey with 203 Korean-American registered nurses living in New York State and New Jersey State. Data were collected from May 8 to August 25, 2012. Collected data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test and hierarchical multiple regression.
RESULTS
The mean organizational commitment of Korean-American registered nurses was 3.34+/-0.59 out of a possible 5.00. The resilience and job satisfaction were significant variables predicting the level of organizational commitment among Korean-American registered nurses, accounting for 50% of the variability.
CONCLUSION
The results of the study indicate that it is necessary to identify factors influencing job satisfaction and develop programs to strengthen personal resilience in order to increase organizational commitment.
