Quality of life at work: Brazilian nursing literature review

“…This way, the employed QLW concept was sometimes associated to the satisfaction with some work components (32,35,(38)(39) , like payment, autonomy, professional status, and others; and at other times, it was associates to the worker's largest participation inside the organization (26) , corroborating with other authors who state that Brazilian studies adopt the QLW thematic under distinct focuses (36,41) . Four studies used the term QLW, three of which presented the definition that would be used in the study (26,36,39) . The term satisfaction at work was employed in 13 studies, but only five (27,30,32,35,38) presented the applied concept.…”

“…The term satisfaction at work was employed in 13 studies, but only five (27,30,32,35,38) presented the applied concept. It was observed that, in the full-text dissertations and theses (26)(27)32,35,36,(38)(39) , the authors presented the adopted concepts. The same did not occur in the articles, in which most authors were not concerned with presenting the definition that would be used in the study.…”

“…QLW domains were described in 11 studies (24,(26)(27)(28)(29)32,(35)(36)(38)(39)(40) . The number of domains in the instruments ranged from 6 to 13, and the most often addressed were: payment, interaction, professional status, work requirements or goals, autonomy, organizational policy or rules, and opportunity for development.…”

“…With regard to the evaluation instruments, seven distinct instruments were found, of which the Index of Professional Satisfaction was used in four studies (32,35,(38)(39) and the Work Satisfaction Measurement Questionnaire in two (27,40) . Six authors (25,(30)(31)(33)(34)37) developed questionnaires with essay and multiple-choice questions about the addressed issue.…”

“…This was presented in six studies (27)(28)32,36,(38)(39) . The presented explanations referred to the psychometrical properties of the instruments, the use in other studies, the number of items and, yet, to the lack of other specific measure for nurses working in hospitals.…”
