Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to identify the effects of preceptor's leadership, preceptor-preceptee exchange relationship, and preceptee's self-leadership on newly hired nurses' turnover intention. Methods: Participants were 175 nurses working at general hospitals in D city. Data were collected from 164 nurses in May 2019 and were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS/WIN 24.0 program. Results: Newly hired nurses' turnover intention was negatively correlated with preceptor's transactional leadership (r=-.23, p=.003), preceptor's emotional leadership (r=-.28, p<.001), preceptor-preceptee exchange relationship (r=-.34, p<.001), and preceptee's self-leadership (r=-.23, p=.004). The work unit (β=.35, p<.001), preceptor-preceptee exchange relationship (β=-.28, p=.002), present work experience (β=.27, p=.043), and marital status (β=-.19, p=.009) were significant predictors of the turnover intention (R2=.26, p<.001). Conclusion: Therefore, in order to reduce the degree of turnover of new nurses, improving the exchange relationship of preceptor-preceptee is required, and balancing between work and life should be considered especially for the married new nurses.
