摘要
背景与目的情商(EI)是提高人力资源管理和组织绩效的关键因素。它是管理者有效指导个人的现代工具。工作动机反映了员工克服工作挑战和适应自己角色的意愿。本研究考察了EI对伊朗伊拉姆公立医院护士工作动机的影响。方法对2024年在伊拉姆公立医院工作的护士进行横断面描述性研究。使用科克伦公式,确定了178个样本大小,142名参与者完成了问卷调查。数据收集采用Bar-On情绪智力问卷和Hackman和Oldham工作动机问卷。运用SPSS软件(version 20),采用Pearson相关检验分析EI与工作动机的关系。结果护士情绪干预与工作动机呈显著正相关。情商各成分的Pearson相关系数分别为:自我意识(r = 0.542, p = 0.021)、自尊(r = 0.782, p = 0.033)、社交技能(r = 0.757, p = 0.037)、共情(r = 0.615, p = 0.015)、灵活性(r = 0.631, p = 0.010)。这些发现表明,EI成分与工作动机之间存在着强烈的、积极的、显著的关系。结论本研究强调了情绪干预对提高护士工作动机的重要性。医院管理者可以通过实施情商培训计划来提高员工的工作积极性,从而提高工作满意度和医院绩效。
Determining the correlation between emotional intelligence and job motivation among nursing staff in public hospitals in Ilam City, Iran
Background and aim
Emotional intelligence (EI) is a critical factor in enhancing human resource management and organizational performance. It serves as a modern tool for managers to guide individuals effectively. Job motivation reflects employees’ willingness to overcome workplace challenges and adapt to their roles. This study examines the impact of EI on the job motivation of nurses in public hospitals in Ilam, Iran.
Methods
A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted in 2024 among nurses working in public hospitals in Ilam. Using Cochran’s formula, a sample size of 178 was determined, with 142 participants completing the questionnaires. Data were collected using the Bar-On Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire and the Hackman and Oldham Job Motivation Questionnaire. Pearson’s correlation test was employed to analyze the relationship between EI and job motivation using SPSS software (version 20).
Results
A significant positive correlation was found between EI and job motivation among nurses. The Pearson correlation coefficients for EI components were as follows: self-awareness (r = 0.542, p = 0.021), self-respect (r = 0.782, p = 0.033), social skills (r = 0.757, p = 0.037), empathy (r = 0.615, p = 0.015), and flexibility (r = 0.631, p = 0.010). These findings indicate a strong, positive, and significant relationship between EI components and job motivation.
Conclusion
The study highlights the importance of EI in enhancing job motivation among nurses. Hospital managers can improve motivation by implementing EI training programs, which may lead to increased job satisfaction and better hospital performance.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Africa Nursing Sciences (IJANS) is an international scientific journal published by Elsevier. The broad-based journal was founded on two key tenets, i.e. to publish the most exciting research with respect to the subjects of Nursing and Midwifery in Africa, and secondly, to advance the international understanding and development of nursing and midwifery in Africa, both as a profession and as an academic discipline. The fully refereed journal provides a forum for all aspects of nursing and midwifery sciences, especially new trends and advances. The journal call for original research papers, systematic and scholarly review articles, and critical papers which will stimulate debate on research, policy, theory or philosophy of nursing as related to nursing and midwifery in Africa, technical reports, and short communications, and which will meet the journal''s high academic and ethical standards. Manuscripts of nursing practice, education, management, and research are encouraged. The journal values critical scholarly debate on issues that have strategic significance for educators, practitioners, leaders and policy-makers of nursing and midwifery in Africa. The journal publishes the highest quality scholarly contributions reflecting the diversity of nursing, and is also inviting international scholars who are engaged with nursing and midwifery in Africa to contribute to the journal. We will only publish work that demonstrates the use of rigorous methodology as well as by publishing papers that highlight the theoretical underpinnings of nursing and midwifery as it relates to the Africa context.
