Abstract: (113 Views)
Considering the important role of health organizations and the behavior and performance of nurses in achieving organizational goals, the moral foundations of nurses can significantly influence their behaviors and decisions and shape the organizational culture and atmosphere. Therefore, the present descriptive-analytical study aimed to investigate the relationship between moral foundations and organizational culture among 200 nurses selected using the census method at Shahrekord University of Medical Sciences in 2023. Data were collected through a demographic information form along with questionnaires to measure moral foundations and organizational culture. Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 16 via descriptive statistics (percentage, mean, and standard deviation) and analytical tests (t-test, analysis of variance (ANOVA), correlation coefficient, and linear regression). Pearson’s correlation coefficient revealed a significant relationship between the mean scores of moral foundations and organizational culture among nurses (r=0.61, P<0.001). The coefficient of determination (R2=0.372) showed approximately 37% of the variance in organizational culture can be predicted by moral foundations. Among the dimensions of moral foundations, loyalty to the group, respect for authority, and purity significantly predicted organizational culture (P<0.001). The mean score of moral foundations among nurses was acceptable at 98.55±15.8, while the mean score of organizational culture was favorable at 105.74±25.7. Based on the findings from the present study it can be concluded that by creating a moral atmosphere and promoting moral values such as loyalty to the group, respect for authority, and purity in nurses, the organizational culture can be enhanced
