Effect of Nurses’ Person-Environment Fit on Positive Psychological Capital, Career Commitment, and Turnover Intention / 간호행정학회지

ABSTRACT

Purpose@#This study aimed to examine the effect of person-environment fit on positive psychological capital, career commitment, and turnover intention among nurses working in university hospitals. @*Methods@#A survey was administered to 277 nurses working in a university hospital with more than 800 beds in J city. SPSS 25.0 and AMOS 18.0 were used for analysis. @*Results@#Factors that directly explain turnover intention, person-environment fit, career commitment, and psychological capital exhibited a negative effect. However, while person-job fit did not directly affect turnover intention, it exhibited an indirect effect and total effect via positive psychological capital and career commitment. @*Conclusion@#Various programs should be developed to enhance nurses’ person-environment fit and person-job fit. Forming a positive attitude and strengthening nurses’ attachment and commitment toward nursing contribute to a lower turnover intention.
