    The Relationship between Psychological Resilience and Departmental Commitment in Intensive Care Unit and Emergency Room Employees: A Study of Private İzmir Hospitals
    (2013) Castro, Joseph Fred; Bulut, Çağrı
    The sample of this study consisted of a convenience sample of 106 employees (n=106) from the intensive care units (ICUs) and emergency rooms (ERs) of twelve private Izmir hospitals. The participating employees were 26.4% male (n=28) and 73.6% female (n=78). The ten question Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-10) was used to measure psychological resilience in employees, while the Meyer-Allen TCM scale was revised and used to measure departmental commitment. The Meyer-Allen TCM scale held to the past theoretical considerations as three factors were extracted using principal component analysis. The results showed a correlation between psychological resilience and affective and normative departmental commitment. Further studies using performance appraisals in addition to questionnaires may add to this research.
