dc.description.abstractThis study investigated the contribution and effect of burnout and self-concept on job satisfaction among nurses’ in Libya. The study also investigated the relationship between burnout, self-concept and job satisfaction. Survey design using quantitative approach was used in the study. Two hundred and forty six (246) female nurses’ participated in the study; the participating nurses’ were randomly selected from two government hospitals in Libya. Three different instruments including: Job Descriptive Index (JDI); Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI); and, Tennesse Self-concept Scale (TSCS) were adapted and used as instruments for data collection in the study. Factor analysis and pilot study were performed and conducted to establish the validity and reliability of the instrument before they were used in the actual study. Both descriptive and inferential statistical analyses were used in analysing the data collected for the study. Descriptive analysis was used in the study to determine the level of burnout, self-concept and job satisfaction among the participants. Analysis of variances (ANOVA) was used to determine the effects of demographic variables (marital status, age and years of working experience) on nurses’ burnout and job satisfaction; while correlational analysis (Pearson Moment Correlational Analysis) was used to find out the relationship between burnout, self-concept and job satisfaction and their underlying constructs. Findings in the study indicated that, level of burnout among nurses’ in Libya was relatively high; level of self-concept was average; while level of job satisfaction among the Libyan nurses’ was low. There was significant difference in the nurses’ level of burnout between the age groups of the nurses’; while the difference in the level of burnout among the nurses’ in terms of their marital status and years of working experience were not significant. The effects of age, marital status and years of working experience on the nurses’ level of job satisfaction were found not significant. The relationship between burnout, self-concept and job satisfaction and their underlying constructs were found to be significant. shortage of nurses’ associated with nurses’ quitting their job as a result of either burnout or low level of job satisfaction was identified as one of the major implications associated with the findings of the study. Peer counselling and building positive but authentic image of the nursing profession in Libya were some of the recommendations provided in the study.en_US
