Özet
Nurses are exposed to physical and psychological pressure in the workplace due to adverse workplace conditions such as heavy workload and working conditions. The low quality of work life of nurses causes poor performance, medical errors and prevents reaching the desired health outcomes. In order to achieve the desired health outcomes, nurses' quality of work life should be measured and improved. This study aimed to determine the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Work-Related Quality of Life scale. The study was conducted with nurses in a training and research hospital in Central Anatolia Region, Turkey (N = 226). Confirmatory factor analysis was performed to determine the scale’s factor structure. The regression analysis was performed to determine sociodemographic variables affected the quality of working life. The scale’s factor structure was confirmed (?2/df = 2.370, RMSEA = 0.070). The scale had a high level of reliability (Cronbach's alpha = 0.944). Among socio-demographic variables, age, gender, marital status and years of working in the hospital have an effect on the scale or at least one subscale. The Turkish version of the Work-Related Quality of Life scale is a valid and reliable instrument for assessing the nurses’ quality of working life.
