Abstract

Purpose: To examine the associations between work-family conflict, implicit gender bias, and turnover intention among hospital ophthalmologists.

Study design: Cross-sectional study.

Methods: We conducted a web-based questionnaire survey between January and February 2024. The participants were full-time ophthalmologists working in 37 hospitals in the Kanto region of Japan. We assessed the associations between work-family conflict, implicit gender bias, and turnover intention using multivariable regression analysis, with adjustments for job fit and position.

Results: We analyzed data from 74 ophthalmologists (mean age: 41.5 years, standard deviation: 10.8; 51.4% women). The median intention to leave score was 2.50 (interquartile range: 2.00-3.00). Work interference with family was significantly associated with turnover intention (adjusted difference: 0.30; 95% confidence interval: 0.075-0.53; p=0.010). However, family interference with work and implicit gender bias were not significantly associated with turnover intention.

Conclusions: This is the first study to examine the associations between work-family conflict, implicit gender bias, and turnover intention among Japanese hospital ophthalmologists. Work interference with family was associated with increased turnover intention but not with family interference with work or implicit gender bias.

日本医院眼科医师工作家庭冲突与离职倾向之关系：横断面研究。

目的：探讨眼科医师工作家庭冲突、内隐性别偏见与离职倾向的关系。研究设计：横断面研究。方法：于2024年1 - 2月进行网络问卷调查。参与者是在日本关东地区37家医院工作的全职眼科医生。我们采用多变量回归分析评估了工作家庭冲突、内隐性别偏见和离职倾向之间的关系，并对工作适合度和职位进行了调整。结果：我们分析了74名眼科医生的资料（平均年龄：41.5岁，标准差：10.8；51.4%为女性）。离场意愿得分中位数为2.50（四分位数区间为2.00-3.00）。工作对家庭的干扰与离职倾向显著相关（调整差值：0.30；95%可信区间：0.075-0.53;p=0.010）。而家庭对工作的干扰和内隐性别偏见对离职倾向的影响不显著。结论：本研究首次探讨日本医院眼科医师工作家庭冲突、内隐性别偏见与离职倾向的关系。工作对家庭的干扰与离职倾向增加有关，但与家庭对工作的干扰或隐性性别偏见无关。

期刊介绍： The Japanese Journal of Ophthalmology (JJO) was inaugurated in 1957 as a quarterly journal published in English by the Ophthalmology Department of the University of Tokyo, with the aim of disseminating the achievements of Japanese ophthalmologists worldwide. JJO remains the only Japanese ophthalmology journal published in English. In 1997, the Japanese Ophthalmological Society assumed the responsibility for publishing the Japanese Journal of Ophthalmology as its official English-language publication. Currently the journal is published bimonthly and accepts papers from authors worldwide. JJO has become an international interdisciplinary forum for the publication of basic science and clinical research papers.
