Abstract

This research reports the results of a survey of 230 Australian critical care nurses. The respondents were asked to rate how frequently they were involved in 10 common critical care decisions and their levels of satisfaction with their involvement for each decision task. It was found that level of task satisfaction was positively correlated with level of task involvement, thus supporting the hypothesis that nurse task decision autonomy is associated with nurse task satisfaction. The paper argues for the importance of differentiation between task satisfaction and work satisfaction in research of these issues.
