Abstract

Purpose
This study aimed to identify the factors influencing nurses’ grit, organizational communication satisfaction, and job embeddedness on their organizational commitment.
Methods
Data were collected from 174 nurses working in general hospitals in B City, South Korea. Descriptive statistics, independent t-tests, one-way ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis were performed using IBM SPSS/WIN 29.0.
Results
Factors influencing organizational commitment included persistence to achieve long-term goals (β=.21, p=.004), organizational climate (β=.23, p=.003), fit (β=.40, p<.001), special unit (β=-.09, p=.045), and clinical career of 1 to 3 years (β=.15, p=.046). The explanatory power of the regression model was 65.7% (F=21.73, p<.001).
Conclusion
To enhance organizational commitment, nurses should remain focused on achieving long-term goals despite task difficulties. Organizations should not only foster a supportive work environment and establish a positive climate for organizational communication, but also consider the alignment of nurses’ job embeddedness.
