Abstract
In this cross-sectional study, we aimed to identify subgroups of job satisfaction and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in Chinese male nurses and examine the factors associated with subgroup profiles. A convenience sample of 626 Chinese male nurses were enrolled from January to October 2021. Latent profile analysis was performed to identify profiles based on self-esteem, psychological resilience, social support, neuroticism, perceived prejudice, occupational stress, job satisfaction, and HRQoL. Chi-squared tests were used to examine predictors of profiles. Results indicated that a three-profile model provided the best fit: low job satisfaction and health (9.90%), moderate job satisfaction and health (64.06%), and high job satisfaction and health (26.04%). The average number of monthly night shifts was negatively correlated with the male nurses' subgroups. Psychological resilience, social support, and neuroticism were the key factors associated with the HRQoL of male nurses, while perceived prejudice, occupational stress, and self-esteem were the key factors associated with job satisfaction. Nurse administrators could improve their job satisfaction and health by reducing perceived prejudice, and job stress, increasing organizational support and resilience.
期刊介绍:
Research in Nursing & Health ( RINAH ) is a peer-reviewed general research journal devoted to publication of a wide range of research that will inform the practice of nursing and other health disciplines. The editors invite reports of research describing problems and testing interventions related to health phenomena, health care and self-care, clinical organization and administration; and the testing of research findings in practice. Research protocols are considered if funded in a peer-reviewed process by an agency external to the authors’ home institution and if the work is in progress. Papers on research methods and techniques are appropriate if they go beyond what is already generally available in the literature and include description of successful use of the method. Theory papers are accepted if each proposition is supported by research evidence. Systematic reviews of the literature are reviewed if PRISMA guidelines are followed. Letters to the editor commenting on published articles are welcome.
