Summary:碩士 === 國立高雄應用科技大學 === 人力資源發展系 === 100 === In recent years, due to the rapid economic development and the improvement of life quality, the medical demands for people is increasing. Then, nursing becomes important in daily life. Thus, the professional commitment of nursing staff gets the public’s attention. Accordingly, the main purpose of this study was to compare the demographic differences of nursing staff on role stress, professional commitment, and perceived supervisor leadership. It was also to examine the relationships and influence among those three variables. Finally, this study was to examine the moderator of supervisor leadership in the relationship between role stress and professional commitment. This study utilized the questionnaire survey method. The research subjects were 150 nursing staffs from one of southern hospital. Through investigating and analyzing, the findings indicated that the married nursing staffs demonstrated higher professional commitmen and perceived supervisor leadership than those of unmarried ones. Nurising staffs with higher level of education showed stronger role stress and professional commitmen than those with lower level of education, whereas nursing staffs with longer working experience felt stronger role stress than those of shorter working experience. Next, role stress, professional commitment, and supervisor leadership were statistically significant correlated. Finally, role stress was the best predictor of professional commitment, while the supervisor leadership was the significant moderator in the relationship between role stress and professional commitment. Based on these findings, the implication of this study is to strengthen supervisor leadership and to reduce role stress for nursing staffs, which in turn, to encourage the professional commitment of nursing staffs and then to improve the overall quality of hospital service.
