causal relationship model, factors influencing, job performance, nursing instructorsAbstract
This study aimed to: 1) develop a causal relationship of factors influencing on job performance; 2) validate the conformance between empirical evidence and the model; and 3) examine the effect size of factors affecting on job performance. Multi-stage random sampling method was used to recruite 615 nursing instructors under the public educational institution to the study. Research instruments included a set of questionnaires to measure transformational leadership, job satisfaction, work engagement, organization citizenship behavior, and job performance. Their reliability coefficients were .98, .94, .95, .92, and .95, respectively. Confirmatory factors were employed to assess the instruments’ validity. Path analysis was employed to analyze causal relationship of factors influencing job performance.
Findings revealed that by using the causal relationship model, the transformational leadership had direct effect on job satisfaction work engagement and job performance. Transformational leadership had an indirect effects on job performance mediating through job satisfaction, work engagement, and job performance; it also had indirect effect on job performance through job satisfaction, work engagement, and organization citizenship behavior. Moreover, the causal relationship model conformed to the empirical evidence (x2 = 87.98; df= 108; p= . 02749; GFI = .98; AGFI = .983; RMR = 0.002 ; RMSEA =.021). The causal relationship model explained 73% of the variance in job performance. Job satisfaction and organization citizenship behavior directly affected job performance in a positive correlation with effect sizes of 0.77, and 0.68, respectively. Job satisfaction also indirectly affected job performance in a positive correlation through work engagement, and organization citizenship behavior, with the effect size of 0.98, and 0.67, respectively. The transformational leadership of the principal, according to perceptions of the personnel, had a negative direct effect (-0.51) on job performance. Moreover, it had indirect effect through job satisfaction, work engagement, and organization citizenship behavior with effect size of -0.41, 0.67 and, 0.68, respectively. The results could be used to develop the performance of nursing instructors in public institutions.
