Generational differences may influence the impact of these relationships.

Purpose of the Study:

To examine similarities and differences in supervisor-nurse relationships across three nursing generations (Baby Boomers, Generation X, Generation Y).
To assess the impact of these relationships on satisfaction with training and development, well-being, and affective commitment.
To provide practical implications for healthcare management regarding nurse retention.

Main Methods:

Three key factors explained a substantial portion of the variance in affective commitment for Generation X and Baby Boomers, and a third for Generation Y.
Supervisor-subordinate communication emerged as a critical factor across all generations.

Conclusions:

Strong supervisor-nurse relationships are vital for nurse training satisfaction, well-being, and commitment.
