Generationsspezifische Unterschiede in den Werthaltungen von Gesundheits- und Krankenpfleger / -innen – Eine Querschnittstudie

Abstract

Values of generation Y nurses compared to generation X and baby boomers - A cross-sectional study Abstract. BACKGROUND: Several studies point to special behaviours of generation Y employees. RESEARCH QUESTION: Starting from the assumption that there is an effect on the attitudes and behaviour of values, the study deals with the question of differences in the values between generation Y (1981 - 1995) and generations X (1966 - 1980) and the baby boomers (1956 - 1965). METHOD: Values are identified by nurses (n = 421) in the self-assessment as well as by stranger estimations of station leads (n = 259) and nursing directors (n = 312) in a quantitative cross-sectional study based on the PVQ-21 questionnaire was laid. RESULTS: While the values of self-centredness, stimulation, and hedonism are of high importance to generation Y in both self-assessment and outside consideration, tradition, conformity, and safety are considered less important. Likewise, for some values of generation Y, differences in self and other views can be determined. CONCLUSIONS: In the sense of a transformational understanding of leadership, operative and strategic nursing management must consider generation-specific differences in dealing with nursing staff.
