Area of Science:

  • Nursing Research
  • Organizational Behavior
  • Sociology of Health

Background:

  • Discrepancies between individual and organizational values can impede adjustment.
  • Organizational values are crucial for individual-organization bonding.
  • Multicultural contexts like Israel may show varied perceptions of values and commitment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the link between perceived organizational values and organizational commitment in Israeli nurses.
  • To explore how ethno-cultural background influences this association.

Main Methods:

  • A questionnaire survey was administered to 106 hospital nurses.
  • The sample included a significant proportion of Israeli-born nurses (59.8%).

Main Results:

  • A positive correlation was observed between organizational values and commitment.
  • Significant ethno-cultural differences in values and commitment were found among nurses born in Israel, the USSR, and Ethiopia.
  • Socio-demographic factors (gender, religion, education) influenced the strength of the values-commitment relationship.

Conclusions:

  • Culture and ethnicity play a significant role in how nurses perceive organizational values and their commitment levels.
  • Recognizing ethno-cultural variations in values and commitment enhances understanding of nurse adjustment and aids in developing strategies for increased commitment.
