Abstract

چکیده
: The present study investigated the proposed model in which the effect of job embeddedness on turnover intention and job performance has been mediated by job stress and psychological empowerment. METHOD: This descriptive correlational study was conducted in 2015. The proposed model was tested in a sample of 256 of 788 nurses in Ahvaz hospitals that were selected by stratified random sampling. Research tools included Job Stress Scale (Parker and Decotiis 1983), Michigan Organizational Assessment Questionnaire (Cammann, Fichman, Jenkins & Klesh, 1979) Job Intention Questionnaire (1979), Psychological Empowerment Questionnaire (PEQ; Spreitzer 1995), Occupational Embeddedness Scale (Adams, Webster & Buyarski, 2010) and Job Performance Scale(Peterson, 1922). Structural equation analysis and Bootstrap method were used to evaluate the proposed model and mediate effects test. FINDINGS: Based on the result, the final model has good fitness. In the approved model, job stress and psychological empowerment are suitable mediators to explain the impact of occupational embeddedness on job performance and turnover intention. CONCLUSION: Based on the findings, it is suggested that, to improve the level of job performance and stay employees in the organization, organizations should provide conditions for improving the level of job stress and occupational embeddedness or increasing psychological empowerment
