    Area of Science:

    • Nursing workforce research
    • Organizational psychology
    • Human resource management

    Background:

    • Understanding nurse employment incentives is crucial for retention and recruitment.
    • March and Simon's theory provides a framework for analyzing inducements.
    • Differentiating employed and non-employed nurses' perceptions is key.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To identify perceived employment incentives for nurses.
    • To compare incentive rankings between employed and non-employed nurses.
    • To explore if rankings differentiate between these nurse groups.

    Main Methods:

    • A 47-item instrument surveyed a 5% random sample of registered nurses (RNs).
    • Analysis focused on similarities and differences in incentive rankings.
    • Factor structure analysis was used to compare groups.

    Main Results:

    • Similar incentive factor structures were found for employed and non-employed RNs.
    • Part-employed nurses' factor structure showed overlap with both groups.
    • The instrument explained little variance, suggesting other factors are influential.

    Conclusions:

    • Registered nurses, regardless of employment status, perceive similar employment incentives.
    • Professionalism is a significant area for developing future incentive-related items.
    • Further research is needed to identify additional variables influencing nurse employment decisions.
