Journal Title: Journal of International Health Sciences and Management - Year 2024, Vol 10, Issue 19
Abstract
Increasing internet usage enables individuals to easily access the information they are searching for. This situation brings up the concept of digital literacy. Healthcare institutions are also increasingly keeping up with this internet age. In this study, it was tried to reveal the difference between the socio-demographic characteristics of healthcare managers and employees working in healthcare institutions and the lower dimensions of digital literacy and job satisfaction. This study also aims to investigate the impact of digital literacy lower dimensions on job satisfaction's lower dimensions and make suggestions. The research was carried out with the participation of health managers and employees consisting of 396 people working in Sakarya University Training and Research Hospital. The data were analyzed using the SPSS 27.0 package program. "Independent Sample T-Test" was used to reveal the differences between two groups, and "One Way ANOVA Test" was used to reveal the differences between three or more groups. Tukey Test, one of the Post-Hoc tests, was used to determine the source of the difference. Correlation Analysis was used to determine the relationship in the research, and Multiple Regression Analysis was used to reveal the effect. According to the research results, a low-level positive relationship was found between digital literacy lower dimensions and internal and external satisfaction (p<0.005), but no positive or negative effect was found (p>0.001). In the research, it was determined that the lower dimensions of digital literacy do not differ according to gender, marital status and age, but vary according to the position in the institution. While there is a significant difference between internal satisfaction, which is a lower dimension of job satisfaction, and gender, age and position in the institution, there is a significant difference between external satisfaction and only the position in the institution. It is thought that the offered service will be provided more efficiently and effectively by eliminating the deficiencies determined as a result of the analysis in the institution where the study is conducted.
