“…The ATS has been used frequently to measure turnover intention among nursing workforces in various healthcare settings [25-32]. Barlow and Zangoro [33] conducted a meta-analysis study aimed at determining the consistency of reliability estimates and evidence of construct validity of the ATS scores across nursing studies in the USA. The overall mean weighted effect size of reliability from 12 studies was .89, indicating excellent reliability and construct validity.…”

BackgroundQuality of work life (QWL) has been found to influence the commitment of health professionals, including nurses. However, reliable information on QWL and turnover intention of primary health care (PHC) nurses is limited. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between QWL and turnover intention of PHC nurses in Saudi Arabia.MethodsA cross-sectional survey was used in this study. Data were collected using Brooks’ survey of Quality of Nursing Work Life, the Anticipated Turnover Scale and demographic data questions. A total of 508 PHC nurses in the Jazan Region, Saudi Arabia, completed the questionnaire (RR = 87%). Descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, General Linear Model (GLM) univariate analysis, standard multiple regression, and hierarchical multiple regression were applied for analysis using SPSS v17 for Windows.ResultsFindings suggested that the respondents were dissatisfied with their work life, with almost 40% indicating a turnover intention from their current PHC centres. Turnover intention was significantly related to QWL. Using standard multiple regression, 26% of the variance in turnover intention was explained by QWL, p < 0.001, with R2 = .263. Further analysis using hierarchical multiple regression found that the total variance explained by the model as a whole (demographics and QWL) was 32.1%, p < 0.001. QWL explained an additional 19% of the variance in turnover intention, after controlling for demographic variables.ConclusionsCreating and maintaining a healthy work life for PHC nurses is very important to improve their work satisfaction, reduce turnover, enhance productivity and improve nursing care outcomes.

“…To measure intention to leave, the Chinese version of Anticipated Turnover Scale (C‐ATS) was used. C‐ATS was translated and back‐translated by the PI (Liu, ) from the Anticipated Turnover Scale (Hinshaw & Atwood, ), which has been demonstrated to have validity and has been used worldwide (Barlow & Zangaro, ). The C‐ATS was validated by S‐CVI/Ave, which was 0.96.…”
