Objective Psychological empowerment can affect organizational health (OH) and organizational commitment (OC) of nurses and increase their productivity. This study aims to evaluate the relationship of psychological empowerment with OH and OC in nurses.
Methods This is a descriptive cross-sectional study that was conducted on 225 nurses working in a hospital affiliated to the Social Security Organization in Kerman, Iran in 2021 who were selected by a census method. Data were collected using a demographic form, the psychological empowerment scale (PES) of Spreitzer, the organizational commitment questionnaire (OCQ) of Allen & Meyer‚ and organizational health Inventory (OHI) of Hoy & Feldman. Descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way analysis of variance, multivariate regression analysis and Pearson correlation test were used to analyze the data in SPSS software, version 24.
Results The psychological empowerment score of nurses was at a moderate level (59.82±8.24). Their OH was at a high level (151.1±18.56), and their OC was at a moderate level (76.41± 8.05). The psychological empowerment had a significant positive relationship with OH (r=0.6, P=0.001 ) and OC (r=0.45, P=0.001).
Conclusion Psychological empowerment of nurses has a significant relationship with their OH and OC. It is recommended to perform psychological empowerment interventions to improve the OH and OC of nurses.
