The purpose of this study was to identify advanced beginner-stage nurse's intention of retention. Data were collected from May 1 to June 30 of 2017 using a structured questionnaire. Participants consisted of 150 nurses with 13 to 36 month clinical careers at a hospital located in D, C and K city, Korea. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe's test, Pearson's correlation coefficients and multiple regression, using IBM SPSS WIN 20.0. The average score was 3.34 (${\pm}0.53$) for ego resilience, 2.28 (${\pm}0.44$) for sense of calling, 3.88 (${\pm}0.58$) for teamwork, 3.36 (${\pm}0.42$) for organizational culture, and 5.27 (${\pm}1.38$) for retention intention. Retention intention was positively correlated with ego resilience (r=0.211, p<0.05), sense of calling (r=0.338, p<0.001), teamwork (r=0.284, p<0.001) and organizational culture (r=0.215, p<0.01). Regression analysis revealed that sense of calling and teamwork explained 11.4% (${\beta}=0.284$, p<0.001) and 4.2% (${\beta}=0.212$ p<0.001) of the retention intention of advanced beginner-stage nurses, respectively, and these variables together explained 15.6% of the retention intention of advanced beginner-stage nurses. The results of this study will improve retention intention of advanced beginner-stage nurses and facilitate development a management program and execution strategy that helps improve sense of calling and teamwork, especially that of friendly social orientation and mutual cooperation.

Purpose: This study was designed to examine effects of sense of calling, job satisfaction and organizational commitment on retention intention in nurses who are at the advanced beginner-stage. Methods: Participants were 199 nurses with 13 to 36 months' clinical career at hospital located in Busan, Korea. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffe test, Pearson correlation, and Multiple regression. Results: Retention intention correlated positively with sense of calling (r=.43, p<.001), job satisfaction (r=.31, p<.001) and organizational commitment (r=.31, p<.001). Factors affecting the participants' retention intention were found to be statistically significant (F=21.96, p<.001). Total factor score accounted for 24.1% of retention intention. Out of the related factors, the most influential factor was 'goals/meaning', belonging to the sub-areas of the sense of calling and explaining 18.2% of retention intention, followed by organizational commitment and average monthly income in that order. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest a need to develop a management program that helps promote retention intention for nurses at the advanced beginner-stage by both improving their monthly income and outside conditions and, more importantly, raising their sense of calling, especially in association with the goals/meaning of their life.

Purpose: The present study examined the psycho-emotional factors that affect the retention intention among advanced beginner-stage nurses. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using a convenience sample of 118 nurses with a work experience of at least one to three years of work experience in a university hospital in Suwon, Korea. Structured questionnaires were used to assess retention intention, emotional labor, and resilience. Multiple regression analysis was used to examine factors affecting retention intention. Results: Retention intention had a moderate mean score (4.75 out of 8). Factors influencing participants' retention intention were founded in the order of resilience (β=.29, p<.001) and emotional labor (β=-.20, p=.011) after adjusting nursing satisfaction as a covariate. The multiple regression model accounted for 42% of the variance in retention intention (p<.001). Conclusion: Resilience and emotional labor may be primary factors influencing retention intention of advanced beginner-stage nurses. Therefore, this study finding suggested that psycho-emotional factors such as emotional labor and resilience should be considered while designing programs to increase nurses' retention intention.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine the influence of second victim experiences following patient safety incidents and positive psychological capital on the intention to remain among advanced beginner nurses working at tertiary hospitals. Methods: The participants were 179 nurses with a clinical experience of 13 to 36 months at two tertiary hospitals. We collected data using questionnaires related to second victim experiences, positive psychological capital, and intention to remain. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), Scheffé test, Pearson correlation, and hierarchical regression analysis. Results: The intention to remain in advanced beginner nurses was negatively correlated with second victim experiences and positively correlated with positive psychological capital. A hierarchical multiple regression model with control variables (subjective job satisfaction and self-assessed work proficiency), psychological capital, and second victim experience accounted for 26% of the factors that influenced advanced beginner nurses' intention to remain. Among the related factors, the most influential was subjective job satisfaction. Second victim experience and positive psychological capital also influenced the advanced beginner nurses' intention to remain. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest a need to develop a program that helps promote intention to remain for nurses at the advanced beginner stage by minimizing second victim experiences and improving positive psychological capital and the work environment.
