METHODS
Self-report questionnaires were distributed to 150 nurses in hospital management who were working in general hospitals with less than 900 beds but more than 300 beds in the districts of Seoul and Gyunggi, Gangwon province. Of the questionnaires, 127 out of 150 copies were collected and 120 copies were used for final analysis. Seven were not considered sincere in the responses. Data were analyzed using SPSS ver. 22.0 statistic program, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffé test, Pearson correlation coefficients and multiple regression.
RESULTS
Organizational silence and professionalism had significant influence on job embeddedness, which explained 43.4% of job embeddedness.
