Abstract

Purpose: This study explored the relationships among resilience, job stress, and organizational commitment in ICU nurses. Further, the possibility of the application of resilience to the hospital environment was evaluated to provide basic data for program development to improve resilience and to promote nurses' commitment to their organizations. Methods: Data were collected from 174 ICU nurses at A University Hospital. The cross-sectional descriptive survey was conducted using a structured questionnaire. Results: The mean resilience score was $2.41{\pm}0.47$ out of 4. The mean score for job stress was $3.60{\pm}0.36$ out of 5, and that for organizational commitment was $3.25{\pm}0.55$ out of 5. Analysis of the relationships between the participants' resilience and organizational commitment indicated a significantly positive correlation (r=.45, p<.001). According to the general characteristics, organizational commitment levels showed a significant difference according to the ICU type (F=1.38, p<.001). Conclusion: It may beconcluded that the important individual factor of resilience had a positive influence on organizational commitment. Thus, resilience should be actively promoted, and a program should be developed to enhance the resilience of ICU nurses.
