“…Similarly, a metaanalysis by Randall and O'Driscoll (1997) demonstrates that personal characteristics like position are highly significant in determining organisational commitment. Besides the results of Wang et al (2011) and Randall and O'Driscoll (1997), the present finding also corroborates the findings of previous researchers (Laurel and Goulet, 2002;Lu et al, 2002;Lou et al, 2007) as evident in the literature. However, unlike the findings of Gaziouglu and Tanzal (2002) and Burke (1996), this study found no significant difference in job satisfaction based on positions held by employees in the banking industry.…”

This study examined the impact of fairness perceptions in policy implementations on employees' job satisfaction, work motivation and organisational commitment in the banking sector of Ghana. A correlational research design was adopted for the study. A total of 100 participants were randomly selected to respond to a 45-item questionnaire. Data obtained from the study were analysed with Pearson correlation, independent t-test and One-way ANOVA at 0.05 alpha levels. Findings reveal that job satisfaction and commitment were significantly related to employees' perceptions of fairness in policy implementation. Again, a statistically significant positive correlation was established between organisational commitment and job satisfaction. Also, it was found that a significant difference exists between age and employees work motivation. Moreover, the finding shows that there was a significant difference in organisational commitment based on employees' job position. Based on the findings, it was recommended that management in the banking sector should implement transparent and justifiable policy programmes that will boost employee satisfaction, motivation and commitment to working with the organisation. Policy implementers (or decision makers) in the banking business should pay particular attention to employee job satisfaction since the absence of satisfaction degenerate into lassitude and lessened organisational commitment.

“…This may be due in part to the high rate of perceived homophobia in the country and the possible stereotyping of male nurses as gay in a hostile environment (Andrinopoulos, Figueroa, Kerrigan and Ellen, 2011;Williams, 2000). However, it is not known how much of this societal norm in Jamaica has manifested itself in the attitudes of patients towards male nurses thereby contributing to gender discrimination in the profession (Evans, 2002;Lou, Yu, Hsu, & Dai, 2007). In Jamaica, nursing represents one of the main avenues of social mobility with increasing opportunities to enter the profession as there was an expansion of the number of schools offering baccalaureate programs.…”

“…남자간 호사 이직율은 1년 내 23.6%, 5년 내 44.7%이며, 4년 내 이직 률은 여자간호사의 약 2배에 해당한다 (Chen, Yu, Hsu, Lin, & Lou, 2012b). 간호학자들은 간호사가 전문직으로 나아가 기 위해서는 여성의 직업이라는 이미지에서 벗어나 남녀평등 을 향해 이동해야 한다 (Lou, Yu, Hsu, & Dai, 2007)고 주장 하고 있다.…”

Purpose: This study was to investigate the influence of male nurses' gender role conflict and job satisfaction on their organizational commitment. Methods: Data were collected through a mixed method design using structured questionnaires (N=162) and a sequential qualitative interviews (N=8) from 2nd October, 2012 to 7th February, 2013. Data analysis included t-test, ANOVA, regression with SPSS/WIN 19.0 program and a qualitative thematic analysis. Results: Factors affecting participants' organizational commitment were job satisfaction and marital status which accounted for 36.2% of the total variance. In particular, low job satisfaction was not correlated with low organizational commitment despite lower job satisfaction. Three main themes connoting meanings of ambivalence were extracted from the data: desiring for the better future in spite of the current difficulty, strengthening their masculinity in tandem with complementing femininity in the midst of gender role conflict, leading their organization at times, and enduring hard work with responsibility for raising their family as a head of household. Conclusion:The findings indicate that male nurses' adjustment to the organization is controlled by ambivalence. It is essential to understand sociocultural contexts of male nurses as a minority in nursing fields for further research.
