“…P-J fit refers to the ability of an employee to complete a specified job that matches the actual requirements of the job or to the match between an individual's wishes and needs and the characteristics of the job [87]. ese results also seem to be consistent with a recent study [88] that affirmed that employees are satisfied and stay tuned into an organization when they believe that their jobs are in accordance with their knowledge, skills, and abilities.…”

There is an acute shortage of nurses worldwide, including in Jordan. The nursing shortage is considered to be a crucial and complex challenge across healthcare systems and has stretched to a warning threshold. High turnover among nurses in Jordan is an enduring problem and is believed to be the foremost cause of the nurse shortage. The purpose of this study was to investigate the multidimensional impact of the person-environment (P-E) fit on the job satisfaction (JS) and turnover intention (TI) of registered nurses. The moderating effect of psychological empowerment (PE) on the relationship between JS and TI was also investigated. Based on a quantitative research design, data were collected purposively from 383 registered nurses working at private Jordanian hospitals through self-administered structured questionnaires. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) 25 and Smart Partial Least Squares (PLS) 3.2.8 were used to analyze the statistical data. The results showed that there is a significant relationship between person-job fit (P-J fit), person-supervisor fit (P-S fit), and JS. However, this study found an insignificant relationship between person-organization fit (P-O fit) and JS. Moreover, PE was also significantly moderate between JS and TI of nurses. This study offers an important policy intervention that helps healthcare organizations to understand the enduring issue of nurse turnover. Additionally, policy recommendations to mitigate nurse turnover in Jordan are outlined.

“…Although several studies found no significant effect (Radic et al, 2020;Schaufeli & Bakker, 2004;Syailendra & Soetjipto, 2017), other studies found negative effect. For example, Ugwu and Onyishi (2020) reported negative relationship between workload and work engagement in Nigerian hospital nurses. Vander Elst et al (2016) found that workload and emotional demands negatively affect work engagement of nurses in Belgium.…”

“…Results of several studies showed that job demands and job resources have significant effect on work engagement (Halinski & Harrison, 2020;Huynh, Xanthopoulou, & Winefield, 2014;Montgomery et al, 2015;Ugwu & Onyishi, 2020;Vander Elst et al, 2016;Wolter et al, 2019). On the other hand, several studies did not find significant effects (Ayu, Maarif, & Sukmawati, 2015;Radic et al, 2020;Schaufeli & Bakker, 2004;Syailendra & Soetjipto, 2017).…”

This study presents the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model to investigate employees’ organizational commitment. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of job demands and job resources on organizational commitment, as well as the mediating effect of work engagement, in the context of Indonesian state-owned enterprises. Data were gathered using a questionnaire from 115 employees of a state-owned enterprise. Partial Least Squares - Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) was performed to analyze data. Results of data analysis indicate the negative influence of job demands and positive influence of job resources on organizational commitment. Also, work engagement mediates the effect of job demands and job resources on organizational commitment. The results of this study give a contribution to both theoretical and practical viewpoints. At the theoretical level, this study contributes to the literature on organizational commitment theory and the JD-R model. From the practical viewpoint, the study findings offer insight for Indonesian state-owned enterprises management to enhance employees’ organizational commitment by considering job demands, job resources, and work engagement of employees.

“…Such work could build on current international interest in Fit research in the hospital setting (e.g. Oh & Han, 2018;Ugwu & Onyishi, 2020). Finally, COVID-19 will have differential health impacts on communities of color and this may be best captured through Healthy Place Research that accommodates Cumulative Advantage/Disadvantage theory.…”

This 21st century has brought robust attention to the role the environment plays in human health. This article offers a mapping of the theoretical landscape to help orient and potentially connect the diverse research conducted in the areas of healthy places. The premise is that much research has been conducted within the environmental stress approach to understanding the health-environment nexus, but that additional, important work has also been conducted within both a Fit and a Place approach that provide different insights into healthy places. Each approach has its own underlying assumptions regarding the relationship between human and environment, the research questions that should be asked, the type of validity valued and praxeological assumptions. Each approach also has differing affinities with various theories of health that may serve useful in connecting Healthy Place Research to interdisciplinary research endeavors. Here it is asserted that the concepts and models of allostatic load, salutogenesis and cumulative (dis)advantage hold great promise for connecting Healthy Place Research to robust fields of health inquiry.
