Abstract

This session will describe a multi-site study that tested the effect of civility on RN job satisfaction and organizational commitment. Findings indicate that civility as a self-reported characteristic is a significant independent predictor of intent-to-stay and is mediated by RN satisfaction, supporting the Cowden & Cummings (2012) theoretical model.

Does civility as a nurse characteristic predict job satisfaction and intent to stay?

Calgary, Alberta, Canada

This session will describe a multi-site study that tested the effect of civility on RN job satisfaction and organizational commitment. Findings indicate that civility as a self-reported characteristic is a significant independent predictor of intent-to-stay and is mediated by RN satisfaction, supporting the Cowden & Cummings (2012) theoretical model.
