Is Gossip Associated with Nurses’ Job Performance Perceptions?
Öz
This study seeks to reveal the relationship
between nurse job performance and gossip level. The data were collected from
211 nurses working in training and research hospitals and public hospitals
affiliated with the Provincial Directorate of Health in Sakarya province of
Turkey between April and June 2018. The data collection tool is a scale
consisting of three sections that are Nurse Performance Scale, Gossip
Questionnaire, and Introductory Information Form. For analysis, independent
sample t test, one-way variance analysis, and correlation and regression
analyses were employed. The study showed that there is a negative,
insignificant relationship between nurses’ gossip perceptions and performance
perceptions (r= -0.134; p>0.05). It is possible to say that despite the
negative relationship between influences, one of the sub-dimensions of gossip,
and nurse performance, informal communication among nurses does not create a
negative effect on nurse performance.
