Purpose This study aimed to identify the effects of the nursing practice environment and reciprocity among hospital nurses on their intent to leave, and to investigate the mediating effect of reciprocity in this process. Methods This study was conducted with 218 full-time nurses working for more than 6 months at four general hospitals located in two cities in South Korea. Data were collected using questionnaires from July 26 to August 12, 2022, and analyzed using IBM SPSS/WIN 23.0 and SPSS Process Macro. Results The nursing practice environment (r=-.38, p<.001) and reciprocity (r=-.33, p<.001) were negatively related to the intention to leave. The nursing practice environment and reciprocity affected intent to leave, reciprocity had a partial mediating effect between the nursing practice environment and intent to leave. Conclusion Nursing managers should strengthen the nursing work environment and reciprocity levels to reduce nurses’ intention to leave. Additionally, nursing managers need to effectively manage the organizational culture so that nursing services can be provided in a friendly medical culture that values fair and equal cooperation.
Purpose This study aimed to investigate the relationship between' perceived ethical climate, workplace bullying, and turnover intention among hospital nurses. Methods This study was conducted with 190 full-time nurses working in hospitals in Korea as participants. Data were collected from online communities using Google Docs from July 22 to July 25, 2022. Results Average values were as follows: ethical climate was 3.79±0.60, workplace bullying was 2.31±0.77, and turnover intention was 3.79±0.60. While turnover intention had no correlation with ethical climate, it had a positive relationship with workplace bullying. Workplace bullying was influenced by verbal aggression (β=.48, p=.001), inappropriate task assignment (β=.26, p=.006), monthly salary (β=.18, p=.001), and working department (β=-.13, p=.012). These four variables may explain 60.0% of hospital nurses' turnover intention. Conclusion To prevent turnover of hospital nurses, nursing managers should establish nursing career development programs to ensure adequate retention of experienced nurses. The need to provide nurses with communication skills training to prevent verbal attacks and bullying in the workplace has been identified.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of shared leadership and vertical leadership on team satisfaction, team commitment, and team performance of nurses.
Methods: This study was a descriptive survey study. The participants in this study were 165 nurses working at a general hospital located in Gyeonggi-do, Korea.
Data were collected from March 9 to April 12, 2018 using a structured questionnaire and analyzed with the SPSS/WIN program.
Results: Shared leadership and vertical leadership were found to have a positive correlation with the nurse's team satisfaction, team commitment, and team performance. Empowering leadership behavior, one of the sub-factors of shared leadership, had a positive effect on team satisfaction (β=.25, p=.003), team commitment (β=.32, p<.001), and team performance (β=.25, p=.004). Empowering leadership behavior, one of the sub-factors of vertical leadership, had a positive effect on team performance (β=.32, p=.023).
Conclusion: These results show that the team effect of shared leadership is better than that of vertical leadership. It can be concluded that empowering leadership behavior is important in improving the team performance of nurses. Therefore, hospitals and nursing managers should strive to develop the enhanced empowering leadership behavior programs for nurses.

Burnout was only influenced by professional self-concept which explained 47% of burnout.
