摘要

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine burnout and job satisfaction among nurses based on Job Demand-Resource Model. Methods: A survey using a structured questionnaire was conducted with 464 hospital nurses. Analysis of data was done with both SPSS Win 17.0 for descriptive statistics and AMOS 18.0 for the structural equation model. Results: The hypothetical model yielded the following Chi-square=34.13 (p= %26lt;.001), df=6, GFI=.98, AGFI=.92, CFI=.94, RMSR=.02, NFI=.93, IFI=.94 and showed good fit indices. Workload had a direct effect on emotional exhaustion (beta=0.39), whereas supervisor support had direct effects on emotional exhaustion (beta=-0.24), depersonalization (beta=-0.11), and low personal accomplishment (beta=-0.22). Emotional exhaustion (beta=-0.42), depersonalization (beta=-0.11) and low personal accomplishment (beta=-0.36) had significant direct effects on job satisfaction. Conclusion: The results suggest that nurses%26apos; workload should be decreased and supervisor%26apos;s support should be increased in order to retain nurses. Further study with a longitudinal design is necessary.
