ナースの適性構成因子―適性評価基準尺度作成のためのパイロット・スタディー

Construction of an Aptitude by Factor Analysis for Nurse：Pilot Study of Evaluational Scales

要旨

　本研究では，看護婦（士）の適性評価基準尺度づくりを最終課題とすることから，まず，適性構成因子の抽出を目的とした。調査は郵送法をとった（有効回収率64.4％）。回答者は1,375人。データ解析はSASを使用し，次の結果を得た。

（1）適性尺度として深く関わる因子は，行動特徴では，持続性など8因子，自己像では自信性など8因子であった。

（2）行動特徴と自己像との因子間にはいくつかの正及び負の強い相関が見られた。

（3）行動特徴を重回帰分析した結果から，強い影響を及ぼす内生変数および外生変数のあることが明らかになった。

　これらの分析結果から，適性評価基準尺度の標準化に際し，特に考慮されるべき適性構成因子と因子相互間の相関が明らかになった。

Abstract

　This study aims to make a scale of evaluating an aptitude of nurse.

　The purpose of the paper is to abstracts constracting factors.

　The investigation is done by mail (rating 75.4% or 1584 persons). Factor analysis is made by 1375 subjects excluding less than two years experience.

　The main results were as follows.

(1) Factor (trials) abstracted from characteristic behavior are continuity, etc. Factor abstracted from self image are confidence, etc.

(2) According to the result of correlation between behavior factors as continuity, positively correlates to discretion and challenge and it negatively correlates to anxiety, and behavior positively correlates to challenge, and negatively to anxiety. In the relations of above mentioned factors, confidence relates to the determination and self respect.

(3) The characteristic behavior was analysed multiple regression analysis and according to the standardized partial recursion coefficient, the independent variable which effects continuity is challange, discretion and anxiety. Behavior is exogenous variable with little relation. Independ 4 factors are determination, self respect, coopelation and leniency due to the self image and these factors effect confidence.

　Thus the correlation of above mentioned factors became clear when standardizing the criteria of aptitude evaluation.
