Abstract

Aim: To conduct a bibliometric analysis of the nurses’ job satisfaction from 2004 to 2023.

Design: The bibliometric and visual analysis was performed in January 2024.

Methods: Bibliometric approaches were applied to analyse 11,993 articles, utilising R and VOSviewer software.

Results: Articles published by 24,155 authors from 1735 distinct sources between 2004 and 2023 were retrieved from the Web of Science and incorporated into the research’s purview. The most productive nation and institution correspondingly were the United States and the University of Toronto. The leading scholars in this sphere were Spence Laschinger, Heather K, Labrague, Leodoro J, and Rodwell, John according to Price’s Law, author co-citation and bibliographic-coupling network analysis. 14,152 keywords about nurses’ job satisfaction study were discovered in this research. The most common keywords encompassed “job satisfaction,” “nurses,” “burnout,” “turnover,” and “intention” It was also observed that while trend topics like “work engagement” “COVID-19” and “grit” have gained popularity recently, the most commonly employed trend topics in earlier years included “empirical research report” “longitudinal study,” and “organizational characteristics.”

Conclusion: Research on nurses’ job satisfaction remains relatively limited and requires more attention, especially in developing countries. Developed countries, especially the United Kingdom and the United States, are the main contributors to nurse job satisfaction research. In the early days, nurse job satisfaction research mainly focused on the current status and influencing factors of nurse job satisfaction in different medical organizations, nurse groups or departments, while more researchers have recently paid more attention to research on specific issues emerging in this field, such as the impact of COVID-19 on nurse job satisfaction and turnover. In addition, scholars in the field of nurse job satisfaction focus on finding the real determinants of job satisfaction of adult practicing nurses, such as interpersonal value consistency, human resource management, and the impact of job satisfaction of adult nurses in different medical environments. Topics such as “perseverance,” “COVID-19” and “work engagement” may be potential focuses for future research. Furthermore, transnational research should be given greater emphasis to investigate whether the major factors and effective interferences of nurses’ job satisfaction differ between cultures and more multicenter as well as big sample studies should be conducted to efficiently improve nurses’ job satisfaction.

Impact: This study used bibliometric analysis to examine the most contributing nations, institutions, authors, trend topics, and research focus. Data on the present state of nurses’ job satisfaction research, including its knowledge maps, study emphasis, and thematic trends are few. The findings of this research can lay a strong basis for future research and offer direction.

No Patient or Public Contribution: There were no humankind subjects in the bibliometric analysis of published papers.

2004 - 2023年护士工作满意度的文献计量分析
目的:对2004 ~ 2023年护士工作满意度进行文献计量分析。设计:文献计量学和视觉分析于2024年1月进行。方法:采用文献计量学方法,利用R软件和VOSviewer软件对11,993篇文献进行分析。结果:2004年至2023年间,来自1735个不同来源的24,155位作者发表的文章从Web of Science中检索出来,并纳入研究范围。相应地,生产力最高的国家和机构是美国和多伦多大学。这一领域的主要学者是Spence Laschinger, Heather K, Labrague, Leodoro J和Rodwell, John根据Price定律,作者共引和书目耦合网络分析。本研究共发现有关护士工作满意度研究的关键词14152个。最常见的关键词包括“工作满意度”、“护士”、“倦怠”、“离职”和“意向”。此外,尽管“工作投入”、“COVID-19”和“毅力”等趋势主题最近越来越受欢迎,但早些年最常用的趋势主题包括“实证研究报告”、“纵向研究”和“组织特征”。结论:对护士工作满意度的研究相对有限,需要更多的关注,特别是在发展中国家。发达国家,特别是英国和美国,是护士工作满意度研究的主要贡献者。早期的护士工作满意度研究主要关注不同医疗机构、护士群体或科室的护士工作满意度现状及影响因素,近年来越来越多的研究者开始关注这一领域出现的具体问题的研究,如新冠肺炎疫情对护士工作满意度及离职的影响等。此外,护士工作满意度领域的学者关注于寻找成年执业护士工作满意度的真正决定因素,如人际价值一致性、人力资源管理、不同医疗环境下成年护士工作满意度的影响等。“毅力”、“COVID-19”和“工作投入”等主题可能是未来研究的潜在重点。此外,应更加重视跨国研究,探讨护士工作满意度的主要因素和有效干扰因素在不同文化之间是否存在差异,并开展更多的多中心、大样本研究,以有效提高护士工作满意度。影响:本研究使用文献计量学分析来考察贡献最大的国家、机构、作者、趋势主题和研究重点。关于护士工作满意度研究现状的数据,包括其知识图谱,研究重点和主题趋势很少。本研究结果可以为今后的研究奠定坚实的基础,并提供方向。无患者或公众贡献:在已发表论文的文献计量学分析中没有人类受试者。
