Who Is Likely to Quit Nursing Jobs? A Study in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus

Abstract

The study reported in this article examines the nature of relationships between organizational and personal resources and nurses' turnover intentions. A sample of 124 nurses in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus serves as the study setting. Results of the study reveal that a form of organizational support (empowerment) and two personal resources (customer orientation, job resourcefulness) are the best predictors of turnover intentions. Implications of these results are discussed and avenues for future research are offered. © 2013 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.
