ABSTRACT

AIM: Τranslation and validation of the Kuopio University Hospital Job Satisfaction Scale. BACKGROUND: Nurses' job satisfaction is crucial for the smooth functioning of the health-care system. METHODS: A Greek translation of the scale was made and administered to 126 psychiatric nurses; 60 filled it out again after 15 days. The structural validity and internal consistency of the scale were also studied. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were also conducted. RESULTS: A total of 69 (54.8%) of the participants were male and the majority (72.2%) were <40 years old. The exploratory factor analysis revealed a four-factor scale: Leadership, Working environment, Motivating factors and Team spirit (Cronbach alpha: 0.71-0.88). These factors were not identical to the factors of the Finnish version of the scale. The four-factor model created marginally fits the data and exhibits far better indices. Pearson correlation and intraclass correlation coefficient were near to 1, indicating the scale's high reliability. CONCLUSIONS: The scale's properties were very satisfactory indicating that the scale is a reliable measure of job satisfaction. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT: The Greek version of the Kuopio University Hospital Job Satisfaction Scale can be recommended to measure nurses' job satisfaction in Cyprus and Greece.
