ABSTRACT
AIM:
This article reports findings from a National League for Nursing-funded research study that examined factors in the psychosocial work environment of academic program directors.BACKGROUND:
Vacant nursing academic leadership positions continue to rise and remain unfilled for extensive time periods. No recent study has looked at this issue from a national perspective.METHOD:
An exploratory, descriptive, correlational design with a convenience sample of academic administrators was obtained from NLNAC-accredited programs. The Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire II was the primary instrument used in the study.RESULTS:
Academic administrators (N = 242; response rate 41.2 percent) validated concerns of increasing position turnover; 59 percent indicated that they were in their current positions for less than five years. Statistically significant correlations were found between job satisfaction, work/family life, role concerns, social support, and recognition.CONCLUSION:
Proactive interventions are needed to ensure manageable workloads for those in these essential positions.
