要旨

目的：両立支援的組織文化が，妻／母親役割を担う看護職における職務満足度，組織コミットメント及び職業継続意思に及ぼす影響を検討すること．

方法：869名の看護職を対象に，無記名自記式質問紙調査を実施した．なお，分析対象者は妻／母親役割がある女性看護職とした．質問項目には，個人属性，両立支援的組織文化尺度看護師版，職務満足度，組織コミットメント，職業継続意思を用いた．

結果：766名（88％）より回答を得た．このうち，分析対象者である妻／母親役割のある女性看護職は335人だった．階層的重回帰分析の結果，（1）両立支援的組織文化は職務満足度を媒介し，職業継続意思を有意に強めていた．（2）両立支援的組織文化は組織コミットメントを媒介し，職業継続意思を有意に強めていた．

結論：両立支援的組織文化は，妻／母親役割を担う看護職の職務満足度及び組織コミットメントを高め，さらに職業継続意思も強めていた．よって，両立支援的組織文化の醸成は看護職の人材定着に寄与することが示唆された．

Purpose: This study aimed to elucidate relationships between work-family organizational culture, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and intention to stay among Japanese female registered nurses who are wives or mothers.

Method: A self-administered questionnaire was distributed to registered nurses (n = 869) working in 4 hospitals of eastern Japan. The focus of the analysis was limited to female registered nurses who were wives or mothers (n = 335). Our questionnaire measured work-family organizational culture using the Work-Family Culture Scale for Nurses, as well as nurses' job satisfaction, organizational commitment, intention to stay at their current workplace, and individual attributes.

Findings: A total of 766 (88%) registered nurses filled in and returned their questionnaires; 335 of them were wives or mothers and thus were included in the present study. The results of hierarchical multiple regression analyses conducted on their survey responses revealed the following: (1) job satisfaction completely mediated the positive effects of work-family organizational culture on nurses' intention to stay and (2) organizational commitment partially mediated the positive effects of work-family organizational culture on intention to stay.

Conclusion: The results indicated that work-family organizational culture enhanced job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and intentions to stay in female registered nurses who were wives or mothers. Therefore, fostering work-family organizational culture would help promote the retention of these nurses.
