Abstract

The purpose of this study is to identify the effects of Organizational Immersion and Job Burnout on intent to leave in New nurses. Data were collected from November 23, 2019 to August 31, 2020, self-questionnaires from New nurses. The collected data were analyzed using t-test, one way ANOVA, Scheffé test, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and Simultaneous Multiple regression. The most influential factor in turnover intention of new nurses is organizational immersion (β=-.62, p<.001) followed job burnout (β=.19, p=.043). The analysis showed that the degree regression model for turnover intention was statistically significant (F=36.52, p<.001), which was the explanatory power of 52%. Based on the results of this study, it is considered necessary to develop a program to increase the organizational commitment of new nurses and to apply measures to reduce job burnout in order to reduce the turnover intention of new nurses. Since this study was conducted with 68 new nurses in a hospital, there is a limit to generalizing the research results.
