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
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 explore customer perspectives of nursing services in tertiary hospitals.
Methods
The data comprised mobile Voice Of Customer (VOC) data related to “nursing” or “nurses” generated from June 25, 2019, to December 31, 2022, in a tertiary hospital. A total of 44,727 VOC data points were collected, of which 4,040 were selected for the final analysis. Text network analysis and topic modeling were conducted using NetMiner 4.5.1.
Results
Topic modeling identified five topics for positive aspects and four topics for areas requiring improvement. The positive aspects were: 1) sincere nursing care; 2) rapid response from professional medical staff; 3) teamwork for delivering customer-centric services; 4) provision and coordination of system-based healthcare services; and 5) customer-focused responsiveness. The areas requiring improvement were: 1) demand for skilled nursing care tailored to customer expectations; 2) demand for enhanced communication and reduced mechanical responses; 3) demand for appropriate handling of diverse situations; and 4) demand for overall improvements to the healthcare system, including reservation systems.
Conclusion
These results may be used to enhance customer and patient experiences in tertiary hospitals and are necessary for utilization from a hospital management perspective.

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 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 study aimed to identify the effects of purposeful and timely nursing rounds on patients' perception of the quality of nursing services and nurses' perception of nursing rounds.
Methods
Intentional nursing rounds were conducted by communicating patients’ questions on pain, position, pump, potty, and possessions. A total of 144 nurses and 149 patients participated, and data were collected using self-report questionnaires. The independent t-test, x ² test, and Wilcoxon’s rank-sum test were used to analyze the data with SPSS version 24.0.
Results
Although intentional nursing rounds improved the nurses’ perception of nursing rounds, there was no significant difference. The nurses’ benefit had the lowest score (3.36), and the benefit of communication with patients had the highest score (3.79). Intentional nursing rounds significantly improved the patients’ perception of the quality of nursing services in the intervention group. Among the factors of empathy (Z=4.98, p<.001) related to the quality of nursing services as perceived by the patient, assurance (Z=5.50, p<.001), reliability (Z=4.43, p<.001), and responsiveness (Z=5.02, p<.001) significantly increased.
Conclusion
Intentional nursing rounds positively affected patients’ perception of the quality of nursing service. It is important to improve intentional nursing rounds to enhance nurses’ perceptions of them.

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 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.

Purpose
This study examined outpatients’ experiences of patient participation, their level of patient satisfaction, and the factors that influence their patient satisfaction with outpatient care. Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study utilized secondary data from the 2018 Survey on the Experience with Healthcare Service conducted in South Korea. Data from 6,684 outpatients over the age of 20 years who had visited hospitals were analyzed. Patient characteristics, health-related characteristics, and their experiences of patient participation were assessed as factors related to patient satisfaction. Factors that influenced patient satisfaction with outpatient care were identified using logistic regression analysis. Results: Overall, 84.9% of the participants were satisfied with the received outpatient care. Higher patient satisfaction with outpatient care was significantly associated with middle (40~59 years) and old age (≥60 years), good self-rated health status, and experience of patient participation in patient safety activities. Conclusion: Multiple factors were related to patient satisfaction with outpatient care. These factors need to be considered when evaluating patients’ satisfaction levels. To improve satisfaction with health care use, it is essential to provide more experiences and expand their opportunities for patient participation during the care process and establish healthcare policies and strategies to enhance patient participation in patient safety.

Purpose
This study examined the subjective frame of patient satisfaction in the comprehensive nursing care services and explored future directions by investigating subjective frame types. Methods: P-Samples were collected from 30 patients who underwent the comprehensive nursing care service. To enable a forced normal distribution, 31 Q-samples were classified on a 9-point scale considering the degree of agreement. The collected data were analyzed by principal component factor analysis and varimax rotation using the PQ method program. Results: The subjective frame of patient satisfaction with the comprehensive nursing care service was divided into four types. Considering the characteristics of each, the types were labeled as “the formation of relationships with the surroundings”, “autonomous decision-making”, “non-verbal empathy”, and “therapeutic support resources”. Each type can be classified into therapeutic relationship and therapeutic process categories. Conclusion: This study revealed changes in expectations regarding new medical services and that the subjective frames that affect the formation of satisfaction are diverse. The study results are expected to be used as basic data to develop strategies for creating a therapeutic environment that improves patient satisfaction in the comprehensive nursing care service.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of meaning of work, job embeddedness, and workplace bullying on turnover intention in university hospital nurses. Methods: Data were collected from 126 nurses in a university hospital with more than 500 beds in C-city. Data analysis was performed using multiple linear regression with the SPSS 25.0 program. Results: Significant factors influencing the turnover intention of hospital nurses were meaning of work, job embeddedness and workplace bullying. Conclusion: Negative significant factors influencing the turnover intention of university hospital nurses were meaning of work and job embeddedness. Workplace bullying was the only positive significant factor influencing turnover intention of university hospital nurses. In order to reduce turnover intention, it is necessary to find an alternative that strengthens the meaning of work and job embeddedness and prevents the workplace bullying.

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 effects of head nurses’ authentic leadership, job satisfaction and organizational commitment as perceived by newly licensed nurses and to identify related factors influencing turnover intention.
Methods
A descriptive survey study was conducted with survey data collected between September 9 and 27, 2019 from 190 newly licensed nurses. The data was analyzed using statistical methods including descriptive statistics, frequency analysis, independent t-test, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple linear regression employing SPSS 24.0.
Results
The analysis results show that the turnover intention had positive correlations with the total work experience and work experience with a head nurse, while negative correlations were found with job satisfaction and organizational commitment. The factors affecting the dependent variable of turnover intention were analyzed as the total work experience (β=23, p=.014) and organizational commitment (β=-.68, p<.001). In addition, the explanation ability of turnover intention of newly licensed nurses was 48% (F=36.06, p<.001).
Conclusion
The results show that even after their preceptee period, there is a need for systematic long-term job-training programs to enhance the work adaptability and organizational commitment of newly licensed nurses.

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
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 undertaken to understand the determinants of job satisfaction for hospital nurses in Korea. Organization culture is deemed as a strong factor which contributes to overall job satisfaction.
METHODS
A systematic review was conducted using five electronic databases to identify Korean studies for the years 1998 to 2017. The Comprehensive Meta-Analysis Software Ver 2.0 was then utilized in data analysis.
RESULTS
A meta-analysis of data from 36 studies indicated that the overall effect size of correlation between organizational culture and job satisfaction was moderate (ESr=.36), and publication year was negatively associated with these factors in the meta-regression model. In addition, the magnitude of the types of organizational culture and job satisfaction varied according to size of the hospitals: innovation-oriented culture for secondary hospitals (ESr=.49) and relation-oriented culture for tertiary hospitals (ESr=.46). Lastly, of four different organizational cultures, innovation-oriented culture showed the strongest correlation with job satisfaction (ESr=.50), followed by relation-oriented culture (ESr=.49), and task-oriented culture (ESr=.30).
CONCLUSION
Results indicate that nursing organization culture plays a significant role in Korean nurses' job satisfaction. The implication of the study is that creating an innovation-oriented and relation-oriented culture in hospitals may effectively promote nurses' job satisfaction more than hierarchy-oriented culture.

PURPOSE
The aim of this study was to identify the relationships between the difficulty of end-of-life care and moral distress, burnout and job satisfaction of nurses working in intensive care units (ICUs).
METHODS
This descriptive study was conducted using self-report questionnaires. Participants were nurses who had more than one year of ICU experience and were recruited from three university hospitals (N=168).
RESULTS
The mean scores for ICU nurses' difficulty in end-of-life care, moral distress, burnout and job satisfaction were 3.42, 113.88, 3.16 and 2.58 points, respectively. Difficulty in end-of-life care was positively correlated with moral distress (r=.48, p < .001) and burnout (r=.26, p=.001) and was negatively correlated with job satisfaction (r=−.17, p=.024). Difficulties in end-of-life was identified as a predictor of moral distress (β=.44, p < .001), burnout (β=.26, p=.001) and job satisfaction (β=−.18, p=.024).
CONCLUSION
The results of this study suggest the following: it is important to have a deep understanding of ICU nurses who experience various difficulties in end-of-life care and to provide realist support for these nurses. And practical efforts by nursing organizations are needed, including support systems and education programs to alleviate ICU nurses' difficulties in end-of-life care.

PURPOSE
This study was conducted to examine personality, resilience and satisfaction with nursing major and to explore their influences on nursing students' satisfaction with their major.
METHODS
From March 15 to 30, 2018, self-report questionnaires were distributed and collected from 308 of nursing students in 2 colleges located in P-metropolitan city and K-province. Data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 22.0. program.
RESULTS
The mean score for personality was 3.71±0.45, for resilience, 3.28±0.36, and for satisfaction with major, 3.69±0.53. Satisfaction with major was positively correlated with personality (r=.44, p < .001) and resilience (r=.37 p < .001). Personality was positively correlated with resilience (r=.68 p < .001). The factors associated with satisfaction with major were personality (β=.34, p=.006), satisfaction with college life as ‘bad’ (β=−.25, p < .001), ‘moderate’ (β=−.19, p < .001), and ‘employment’ (β=−.14, p=.028) as motivation for nursing.
CONCLUSION
The results of this study suggest that personality, satisfaction with college life, and motivation for nursing were related to satisfaction with nursing as a major in nursing students. To increase the satisfaction with major for nursing students, it is necessary to build effective strategies to focus on promoting their personality, satisfaction with college life, and motivation for nursing.

PURPOSE
The aim of this study was to identify whether awareness and perceived ease in using parental leave influence job satisfaction of nurses in a public hospital.
METHODS
The participants were 425 nurses working in a public hospital. A questionnaire was used to collect data from October 12 to October 25, 2016. The influence of the factors on job satisfaction of nurses was analyzed by multiple hierarchical regression.
RESULTS
Nurses taking leave accounted for 46.8% (75 nurses) of 160 married nurses. They worried about adaptation after return to work (30.7%) and complained about disadvantages related to using parental leave (45.3%). The percentage of nurses on leave replaced by new full time nurses was 70.7%. Nurses' awareness (β=.16) of perceived ease of using parental leave (β=.32) influenced the nurses' job satisfaction (R2=.21).
CONCLUSION
To improve job satisfaction for nurses, it is necessary to increase awareness and perceived ease of using parental leave. Public hospitals should replace nurses on leave with temporary nurses and help returning nurses adapt to their jobs as they return to work. Nursing managers should create a healthy climate in which it is easy for nurses to take parental leave.

From May to July, 2017, a survey was conducted among 220 nurses working in four hospitals. Inclusion criteria were new graduate nurses who had careers of less than 16 months. Data were collected on organizational socialization, support in work place, job stress, and turnover intention.
RESULTS
Satisfaction with current work department, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and job stress were significant factors influencing turnover intention of new nurses with less than six months experience. However, in case of nurses with seven to 15 months experience, only organizational commitment influenced turnover intention.
CONCLUSIONS
These findings indicate that the factors influencing turnover intention are different according to the length of time the new graduate nurses have worked. To reduce the turnover intention of new nurses, it is necessary to differentiate human resource management approaches according to length of employment. The study results could be useful evidence for developing strategies to reduce turnover in new nurses.
