Abstract
ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of inclusive leadership on job embeddedness of nurses and the mediating role of insider status.
MethodsA total of 293 nurses from two ClassⅢ Grade A public hospitals in Harbin City were recruited by convenience sampling method, and investigated with questionnaire survey from November to December 2016. Inclusive Leadership Scale, Job Embeddedness Scale and Insider Status Scale were used as evaluation tools. Data processing was done by descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis. A total of 293 questionnaires were distributed, and 251 valid questionnaires were collected.
ResultsThe total scores of Inclusive Leadership Scale, Insider Status Scale and Job Embeddedness Scale of the 251 nurses were (5.28±1.184) , (5.57±1.185) and (4.81±1.027) respectively. Pearson correlation analysis showed that inclusive leadership was positively correlated with the insider status and job embeddedness of nurses (P< 0.01) . At the same time, the insider status was positively correlated with the job embeddedness of nurses (P<0.01) . Multiple linear hierarchical regression analysis showed that inclusive leadership had a positive predictive effect on nurses' insider status (β=0.655, P<0.01) and job embeddedness (β=0.557, P<0.01) . The insider status played a partial mediating role between inclusive leadership and job embeddedness.
ConclusionsInclusive leadership can enhance the perception of insider status, thus directly or indirectly improve the job embeddedness level of nursing staff.
