Summary

The purpose of this research project is to assess the impact of a multi-level intervention designed to optimize work motivation and support physical and psychological health among employees. The intervention is based on the principles of self-determination theory; an empirically based approach to human motivation that has been applied to work and health and the job demands resources (JD-R) model; an empirically based model of occupational health.

Detailed description

This study will provide insight into the work climate conditions that are necessary to promote healthy, productive employees and organizations. Based on the knowledge gaps identified in the literature, this will be done by examining the motivational underpinnings related to this challenge to understand the temporal processes leading workplace factors to various occupational health consequences and organizational performance. 1. Aim 1: Develop, implement, and evaluate the effectiveness of a one-and-a-half-day training for nurse managers on 1) how to provide need support 2) facilitate job crafting and 3) how to conduct values interviews to employees (i.e., staff nurses). Following the training, managers will be prepared to implement a need-supportive style during interactions with employees and conduct a values interview. 2. Aim 2: Develop, implement, and evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention for staff nurses to include 1) a one-day training on job crafting and need crafting at work with weekly boosters; 2) a values interview with their manager; and 3) a preventive health assessment and intervention.
