However, only a few researchers have investigated the influence of personality towards workplace bullying and depression. This study examines the role of personality factors as predictors of workplace bullying and their effects on depression. Structural equation modeling analysis was used to analyze the workplace bullying model. The research involved 340 registered nurses from the public sector. The respondents completed questionnaires on personality factors, workplace bullying, and depression. Results showed that only conscientiousness influenced workplace bullying and neuroticism affected depression directly. Workplace bullying has been found to directly influence depression among nurses. The findings have implications on how workplace bullying plays a key role in the relationship between personality and depression and may serve as a guideline on how to prevent nurses from psychological problems caused by workplace bullying.

Organizational-Based Resources as Determinants of Nurses’ Job Performance in Malaysia: The Mediating Role of Motivation /jurnalpengurusan/article/organizational-based-resources-as-determinants-of-nurses-job-performance-in-malaysia-the-mediating-role-of-motivation/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=organizational-based-resources-as-determinants-of-nurses-job-performance-in-malaysia-the-mediating-role-of-motivation Fri, 07 Oct 2022 02:33:46 +0000 /jurnalpengurusan/?post_type=article&p=1726 In a healthcare setting, nurses are the majority of healthcare specialists, thus making their job performance the key determinant of patient’s care quality. Given the rising number of patients being admitted to public hospitals and the increasing demands imposed by patients and their higher expectations, the need to further improve nurses’ performance and quality of service delivery becomes imperative. The Conservation of Resources (COR) theory is used to investigate the influence of human resource management methods (HRMPs), which represent organizational-based resources (in the form of participation and compensation) on nurses’ job performance (task performance and contextual performance) with motivation as the mediator. Partial Least Squares (PLS) technique was used to analyse the data collected from 354 nurses attached with Malaysian public hospitals. The results disclosed that both HRMPs have direct and positive effects on motivation. Similarly, motivation mediated the link between involvement and compensation with task and contextual performance. Similarly, motivation mediated the link between involvement and compensation with task and contextual performance. This study has offered a vital recommendation to the nurse supervisors to motivate the nurses by giving more prospects for them to engage in making decisions and participating in hospital affairs.
