Abstract
- Purpose
This study aimed to examine the levels of professional autonomy, retention intention, and organizational commitment among public hospital nurses, while also investigating the mediating effect of organizational commitment on the relationship between professional autonomy and intention to remain.
Methods
Data for this study were collected through an online survey conducted from August 5 to August 11, 2022, targeting 230 nurses across three public hospitals within a single region. Data analysis was performed using SPSS/WIN 23.0.
Results
Organizational commitment fully mediated the relationship between professional autonomy and retention intentions among public hospital nurses. Positive correlations were observed between professional autonomy and retention intention (r=.24, p<.001), organizational commitment and intention to remain (r=.72, p<.001), as well as professional autonomy and retention intention (r=.34, p<.001).
Conclusion
; To enhance the retain intention among public hospital nurses, it is imperative to focus on program development and institutional administrative efforts aimed at ensuring professional autonomy and fostering organizational commitment.
