PhD Dissertation- The Relationship of Structural Empowerment, Job Satisfaction and Intent to Leave in Critical Care Nurses
-
See projectA quantitative correlational study was conducted to examine the relationship of the
variables structural empowerment (SE), job satisfaction and intent to leave within the
population of critical care nurses who work in U.S hospitals. Applying Kanter’s theory of
SE, a convenience sample of 83 critical care nurses were recruited from Facebook. Survey
instruments included Conditions of Work Effectiveness II (CWEQ II), Job Satisfaction
Survey (JSS) and the Turnover Intention (TIS-6)…A quantitative correlational study was conducted to examine the relationship of the
variables structural empowerment (SE), job satisfaction and intent to leave within the
population of critical care nurses who work in U.S hospitals. Applying Kanter’s theory of
SE, a convenience sample of 83 critical care nurses were recruited from Facebook. Survey
instruments included Conditions of Work Effectiveness II (CWEQ II), Job Satisfaction
Survey (JSS) and the Turnover Intention (TIS-6). Three questions were asked in the study.
RQ1 asked to what extent a relationship exists between SE and job satisfaction in a critical
care nursing environment, RQ2 questioned the relationship of SE and intent to leave, and
RQ3 questioned the relationship of job satisfaction and intent to leave. Both a Pearson and
Spearman correlation were conducted. Pearson’s showed p < .001. Pearson’s r(82) = .70,
for SE to job satisfaction, r(82) = -.456 for SE and intent to leave, and r(82) = -.61 for job
satisfaction and intent to leave. The results for Spearman showed p < .001. SE to job
satisfaction, rs (82) =.683, SE and intent to leave rs (82) = -.424, for job satisfaction and
intent to leave rs (82) = -.591. The results indicated a strong positive relationship between
SE and job satisfaction, a strong negative correlation between SE and intent to leave, and
likewise a negative correlation between job satisfaction and intent to leave. The findings
may be useful in improving nurse retention.
Keywords: Structural empowerment, nurse turnover, job satisfaction,
