Iran J Nurs Midwifery Res. 2012 Sep; 17(6):456-60.IJ

Abstract

CONTEXT

Numerous researches have been carried out to indicate that organizational justice (OJ) is a variable that anticipates many other variables in organizations, especially in hospitals. Organizational behavior (OCB) is one of the most important variables.

AIMS

We aimed to study the relationship between OJ and OCB of nurses in selected hospitals in Isfahan.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

This was a descriptive correlational study. The research was conducted among nurses of selected hospitals in Isfahan.

STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED

Data were gathered using two questionnaires of OJ, and OCB. The t-test, chi-square, and Pearson correlation test were used to analyze the data through SPSS version 13.

RESULTS

In general, the mean score (SD) of OJ among nurses was 41.2 (16.2) and the mean score of OCB was 57.7 (18). Finally, there was no significant relationship between OJ, civil virtue, and sportsmanship. There was a significant relationship between OJ, OCB, courtesy, and conscientiousness.

CONCLUSION

As the scores of OCB and OJ among nurses were average in selected hospitals, the managers of the hospitals should improve the perception of justice among nurses. Today, organizations need efficient and expert workers to achieve their goals, and to grow and improve in all aspects. In fact, the efficiency and effectiveness of organizations depend on the staffs, especially in hospitals.
