未婚女性護理人員生活滿意度的相關研究

Factors Related to Life Satisfaction among Single Female Nurses

目的：了解未婚女性護理人員的生活滿意度、社會支持與自覺身心健康現況及其相關性。方法：橫斷式問卷調查法。共發出問卷371份，回收261份，回收率70.35％。資料以描述性統計、t檢定、單因子變異數、皮爾森積差相關統計分析。結果：未婚女性護理人員生活滿意度達中等以上，與個人屬性變項無顯著性差異。社會支持程度達中等以上，會因「是否有男朋友」及「居住狀況」不同，有顯著差異。自覺身心健康會因「護理進階級數」不同，有顯著差異。三者皆為正相關，即社會支持越高則生活滿意度及自覺身心健康越好。結論：未婚女性護理人員的生活滿意度及社會支持獲得程度皆為中等，但自覺身心健康分數皆低於一般女性國人。
