Abstract
Objectives : This study investigated the effects of psychological ownership on job attitude markers (job satisfaction and affective commitment) of employees in general hospitals. Methods : Data were collected using self-administered questionnaire completed by employees in two hospitals in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do province, from May 21 to 26, 2014. Job attitude markers were measured by job satisfaction and affective commitment. We analyzed 300 cases using SPSS 21.0. Results : Psychological ownership of hospital employees had a significant effect on the job satisfaction and affective commitment. Psychological ownership explained a total of 20.5% and 9.9% of the variance in job satisfaction and affective commitment while controlling for gender, age, marital status, work position and work experience. Conclusions : Psychological ownership of hospital employees is a useful factor and key to recruiting and conducting training program for them, thus enhancing job attitudes.
