Satisfaction with nursing

Abstract

184 students in the Duke University School of Nursing and 428 students in Schools of Nursing in Minnesota were administered the Hoppock Job Satisfaction Scale. The Duke students also responded to a questionnaire on factors associated with satisfaction in nursing. Freshman students showed significantly higher satisfaction scores than upper classmen. Discussions of the class differences in satisfactions obtained, problems, attitudes, and suggestions for improvement are included. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
