Determining Sources of Motivation for Nurses of Different Generations in Turkey

Journal Title: Journal of Advances in Medicine and Medical Research - Year 2017, Vol 23, Issue 5

Abstract

The aim of the study is to determine the motivation sources of nurses from different generations. 396 nurses were recruited for our study. The data were collected by “Socio-demographic Questionnaire” and “Motivation Sources Inventory-MSI”. The nurses were divided into 3 groups: Baby Boomer-BB (14), generation X (266), generation Y (116). Motivation levels weren’t statistically significant amoung the groups. In the dual- comparisons, motivation levels of generation Y were significantly higher than those of generation X. The MSI averages of the nurses were found to be different from each other. The managers are advised to consider the generation differences to increase the motivation.
