背景:关于道德领导与工作场所行为异常之间的关系的研究兴趣日益增加。道德领导力包括利他主义,勇气,伦理取向,诚信和公平。工作场所行为越轨的例子包括盗窃,欺诈,破坏,攻击,滥用,操纵和欺凌。看来,当领导者公平并强调道德行为时,追随者不太倾向于从事反常的工作场所行为。
目的:调查护士自我评估的工作场所行为异常水平与管理者的道德领导感知水平之间的关系。
方法:对于这项描述性相关研究,来自埃及一所大学医院的355名护士回答了包括道德领导量表和工作场所越轨行为量表的在线问卷。描述性和推断性统计用于探索结果并检查研究变量之间的关系。
结果:受访者自我评估的工作场所行为异常水平与他们对管理者道德领导水平的看法之间存在统计学上显著的负相关关系。结果似乎证实了先前的研究。认为自己受到管理者公平对待的护士往往对工作持积极态度,同事和管理层。
结论:管理者的道德领导力是护士工作场所行为的一个重要决定因素,因此应该由医疗机构来培养。
There is increasing research interest in the relationship between ethical leadership and deviant workplace behaviour. Ethical leadership encompasses altruism, courage, ethical orientation, integrity and fairness. Examples of deviant workplace behaviours include theft, fraud, sabotage, assault, abuse, manipulation and bullying. It appears that when leaders are fair and emphasise ethical conduct, followers are less inclined to engage in deviant workplace behaviour.
To investigate the relationship between nurses\' self-rated levels of deviant workplace behaviour and perceived levels of ethical leadership in managers.
For this descriptive correlational study, 355 nurses from one university hospital in Egypt responded to an online questionnaire comprising the Ethical Leadership Scale and the Workplace Deviance Behavior Scale. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to explore results and examine the relationships between study variables.
There was a statistically significant negative relationship between respondents\' self-rated levels of deviant workplace behaviour and their perceptions of levels of ethical leadership in managers. The results appeared to confirm previous research. Nurses who feel that they are treated fairly by their managers tend to have positive attitudes towards work, colleagues and management.
Ethical leadership on the part of managers is a significant determinant of nurses\' behaviour in the workplace and should therefore be fostered by healthcare organisations.
