Analysis on current status and influencing factors of social loafing among 396 clinical nurses

Abstract

Abstract: Objective To investigate the current status and influencing factors of social loafing among clinical nurses. Methods In May 2023,a convenience sampling survey was conducted on 396 clinical nurses from a grade-A tertiary hospital in Wuxi using a general information questionnaire,turnover intention scale,and social loafing scale,and the data were analyzed. Results The turnover intention score for nurses was （17.34±3.36）points,and the social loafing score was （38.32±8.49）points. Average monthly income,night shifts,job satisfaction,and turnover intention were all independent influencing factors of social loafing among clinical nurses（all P<0.05）,with turnover intention independently explaining 16.9% of the total variation in social loafing. Conclusion The social loafing of clinical nurses in a grade-A tertiary hospital in Wuxi is at a relatively high level. Relevant managers can consider improving night shift working conditions,increasing job compensation and satisfaction,and reducing the level of turnover intention,thereby reducing the social loafing level of clinical nurses.
