    Why Do Nurses Transfer from Private Hospitals to Public Hospitals in Turkiye? A Descriptive Cross-Sectional Survey Study Considering Working Conditions, Compulsory Citizenship, Presenteeism, and Burnout
    (Wiley, 2025) Turan, Suzan; Seren, Arzu K. Harmanci; Harmanci Seren, Arzu K.
    This study investigates the reasons behind the transition of nurses from private hospitals to public hospitals in Turkiye, focusing on working conditions, compulsory citizenship behavior, presenteeism, and burnout. The study used a descriptive cross-sectional survey design. The sample consisted of 224 nurses who previously worked in private hospitals and were employed in public hospitals at the time of data collection. Researchers collected data via a questionnaire incorporating demographic questions and validated scales on compulsory citizenship behavior, presenteeism, and burnout. Parametric and nonparametric comparison tests were used to compare participants' experiences in private and public hospitals regarding working conditions. There were statistically significant differences between the groups (p < 0.05). Also, participant nurses' negative organizational behavior experiences scores (compulsory citizenship behavior, presenteeism, and work-related burnout) statistically significantly differed (p < 0.05), considering their scores based on private hospital and public hospital experiences. The study concluded that nurses worked longer and took less leave in private hospitals. Participant nurses also reported that they exhibited more compulsory citizenship presenteeism and experienced a higher rate of work-related burnout while working in private hospitals.

    Psychometrics of Job Stress-Related Presenteeism Scale Among Turkish Nurses
    (Sage Publications inc, 2023) Beklemis, Nihal; Seren, Arzu K. Harmanci K.; Gilbreath, Brad; Harmanci Seren, Arzu K.
    Presenteeism occurs when workers are present at work but with diminished work capacity due to illness, stress, or other causes. Recent studies report that nursing is one of the leading professional groups experiencing presenteeism. Although studies of illness-related presenteeism predominate, fewer studies have investigated stress-related presenteeism. Nurses in Turkey are particularly vulnerable to stress-related presenteeism because of the country's low nurse-to-patient ratio. A scale for measuring presenteeism from job stress - the Job-Stress-Related-Presenteeism Scale-has been developed but not validated. This study had two objectives: to adapt the Job-Stress-Related-Presenteeism Scale to Turkish to use in measuring of presenteeism from job stress among nurses; and to assess the scale's validity. We conducted a cross-sectional study to test the content validity, construct validity, reliability, and stability of a Turkish version of the Job-Stress-Related Presenteeism Scale on a sample of 261 nurses. The content validity index of the Job-Stress-Related Presenteeism Scale was .65. Item-total score correlation values varied between .44 and .77. The confirmatory factor analyses confirmed the six-item, one-factor construct. The Cronbach's alpha internal consistency coefficient was .86. Results indicated that our adapted version of the Job-Stress-Related Presenteeism Scale is valid and suitable for use in Turkey.

Design and Methods This methodological study was carried out on 870 participants in Istanbul, a city with the country's highest and most diverse population. Findings Content validity, construct validity, item analyses, and stability of the draft tool were tested. The seven-factor scale structure was confirmed. Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the scale was .93. Practice Implications The Perceived Global Future Scale, consisting of 36 items and seven dimensions, was used. It is a valid and reliable tool to define perceptions of individuals on the global future.

    (Sage Publications inc, 2024) Cifcioglu, Zulfiye Yildiz; Seren, Arzu K. Harmanci; Yildiz Çifçioğlu, Zülfiye; Harmanci Seren, Arzu K.
    Purpose: To examine the validity and reliability of the Thanatophobia Scale-Turkish Form among nurses. Design and methods: This methodological study included 154 nurses. Content and construct validity, item analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and internal consistency were used to evaluate the data. Findings: The content validity index of the scale was 0.91. Item-total score correlation values varied between 0.453 and 0.718. As a result of the confirmatory factor analyses, one factor was confirmed. Cronbach's alpha internal consistency coefficient was 0.854. Practice Implications: Thanatophobia Scale-Turkish Form is a valid and reliable tool used to evaluate the fear of death among nurses.
