摘要

目的：探讨澳大利亚护士和助产士学术队伍的人口统计学、就业特点、工作满意度和职业意向：背景：学术队伍对于培养下一代护士和助产士至关重要。因此，了解当前的满意度、挑战、机遇和意向对于招聘和继任规划非常重要：设计：横断面澳大利亚护理和助产学术在线调查：方法：通过社交媒体平台、专业网站上的广告以及专业协会的宣传，邀请受访者完成在线调查。采用描述性和推论性统计方法对数据进行分析：在 250 名受访者中，大多数是注册护士（n=212），女性（n=222），担任终身教职和研究职位（n=126），年龄在 50 岁以上（n=130）。近一半的受访者拥有博士学位（n=98），其中 55 人（43.7%）没有博士学位，表示无意攻读博士学位。超过 85% 的受访者（n=213）表示经常从事无偿工作。女性受访者的年平均教学工作量明显高于男性，后者的研究工作量更高（p=0.033）。工作满意度和离开学术界的意愿与工作量和感知价值有关。只从事教学工作的学者和只从事研究工作的学者的工作满意度明显更高（p=0.005）：结论：澳大利亚护理和助产士队伍的可持续发展面临风险，原因是队伍老龄化以及一些学者缺乏攻读博士学位的意愿。性别不平等是本研究的一项发现。需要制定劳动力战略，以解决影响工作满意度的性别差异和工作量不平衡问题。

The Australian nursing and midwifery academic workforce: A cross-sectional study

Aim

To explore the demographics, employment characteristics, job satisfaction and career intentions of the Australian nursing and midwifery academic workforce.

Background

The academic workforce is crucial in preparing the next generation of nurses and midwives. Thus, understanding current satisfaction, challenges, opportunities and intentions is important for recruitment and succession planning.

Design

Cross-sectional online Australian academic nursing and midwifery survey.

Method

Respondents were invited to complete an online survey via social media platforms, advertisements on professional websites and circulation via professional associations. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data.

Results

Of the 250 respondents, most were Registered Nurses (n=212), female (n=222), held tenured teaching and research positions (n=126) and were over the age of 50 (n=130). Almost half of respondents held a PhD (n=98), with 55 (43.7 %) of those without a Doctoral qualification indicating no intention in undertaking doctoral studies. Over 85 % (n=213) of respondents indicated working regular unpaid hours. Female respondents had a significantly higher mean annual teaching allocation compared with males who had higher research workload allocations (p=0.033). Job satisfaction and intention to leave academia were linked with workload and perceived value. Job satisfaction was significantly higher among teaching-only and research-only academics (p=0.005).

Conclusion

The sustainability of the Australian nursing and midwifery workforce is at risk due to an ageing workforce and some academics' lack of intention in pursuing doctoral studies. Gender inequities emerged as a finding in this study. Workforce strategies are required to address gender disparities and workload imbalances that have an impact on job satisfaction.

期刊介绍： Nurse Education in Practice enables lecturers and practitioners to both share and disseminate evidence that demonstrates the actual practice of education as it is experienced in the realities of their respective work environments. It is supportive of new authors and will be at the forefront in publishing individual and collaborative papers that demonstrate the link between education and practice.
