Abstract

Introduction: Quality of work life among nurses can affect organizational productivity and quality of care. This study aimed to review the outcome of research conducted in this field. Methods: In this study, five major databases, including Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched for relevant papers published between 2000 and October 2020 using the following keywords: ‘nurse’, ‘nursing work life’, ‘quality of work life’, ‘nurses' quality of work life’, and ‘scale’. Finally, ten relevant studies were included in the study and the tools introduced in the selected articles were assessed according to the COSMIN checklist. Results: Out of 298 retrieved articles, nine related studies were analyzed based on the COSMIN checklist. None of these tools had all the features listed in COSMIN checklist. However, all tools had acceptable internal consistency and construct validity. Conclusions: Designing a valid and special tool to measure the quality of work life among the nurses is necessary to improve the quality of mental and physical conditions, prevent leaving the nursing job, increase motivation and willingness to work as a nurse, and increase productivity for nurses and organizations.

评价护士工作生活质量:一项系统综述

导言:护士的工作生活质量会影响组织的生产力和护理质量。本研究旨在回顾这一领域的研究成果。方法:本研究以“护士”、“护理工作生活”、“工作生活质量”、“护士工作生活质量”和“规模”为关键词，在Google Scholar、PubMed、ScienceDirect、Scopus和Web of Science五大数据库中检索2000年至2020年10月期间发表的相关论文。最后，将10项相关研究纳入本研究，并根据COSMIN清单对所选文章中引入的工具进行评估。结果:在298篇检索文章中，根据COSMIN核对表分析了9篇相关研究。这些工具都没有COSMIN清单中列出的所有功能。然而，所有工具都具有可接受的内部一致性和结构效度。结论:设计一种有效的、专用的测量护士工作生活质量的工具，对于改善护士的精神和身体状况质量，防止护士离开护理岗位，提高护士工作的积极性和意愿，提高护士和组织的工作效率是必要的。
