Abstract

This study is to analyze the relationship between Taeoom(workplace bullying) and organizational performance and to investigate the mediating effects of organizational silence between the relationship among nurses. In order to test the causal and mediating effects, this study employs the mediation analyses with regression. The sample is 273 from A university hospital in Seoul. Based on the results, Taeoom is basically, negatively associated with organizational performance. Acquiescence silence has played a full mediating role in the relationship between Taeoom and organizational performance. That is, Taeoom is not directly associated with organizational performance; however, it has a negative effect on organizational performance through acquiescence silence. Defensive silence plays a partial mediating role in the interdependence relationship. The implications of this study are that the negative effects of Taeoom would increase organizational silence and performance directly and indirectly; therefore, it is necessary to provide institutional prevention of Taeoom.

본 연구는 간호조직 내 태움(직장 내 괴롭힘)이 간호 조직성과의 인과관계와 조직침묵의 매개효과를 검증을 목적으로 한다. 본 연구의 조사대상은 서울에 위치한 A대학병원 273명의 간호사이며, 인과관계 및 매개효과 분석을 위하여 매개회귀분석를 실시하였다. 분석결과 태움은 기본적으로 간호조직성과에 부정적 영향을 주고 있었다. 조직침묵의 매개효과를 고려하였을 때, 체념적 침묵은 완전매개효과를 갖고 있는 것으로 나타나 태움이 직접적으로 조직성과에 부정적 영향을 주지는 않았으나, 체념적 침묵을 통하여 부정적 영향을 주고 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 방어적 침묵의 매개효과는 부분적이었으며, 태움이 직접적인 영향을 주고 있는 것과 동시에 방어적 침묵을 통하여서도 매개하여 부정적 영향을 주고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 태움의 부정적 영향은 간호조직의 성과에 직·간접적으로 영향을 주고 있고, 조직 침묵을 매개하기 때문에, 태움에 대한 제도적 예방을 통한 적극적 간호관리가 이루어져야 할 것이다.
