Abstract
The relations of nursing faculty demographic characteristics, optimism, achievement (job success), job satisfaction, job expectation, talent development, and faculty members stress, stress reaction, and satisfaction with job and work environment were examined in eighty two of ninety six faculty members teaching in baccalaureate nursing (BSN) programs. Nursing faculty characteristics could not predict stress and stress reactions. Nursing faculty optimism, and job expectation could predict stress. Job satisfaction and optimism could predict nursing faculty members' stress reaction. Stress reaction was low among nursing faculty who had both positive satisfaction with job and work environment and less stress. Job satisfaction, job expectation and academic rank could predict nursing faculty satisfaction with her job and work environment. The degree of satisfaction with office facilities and leadership of the dean had a significant effect on nursing faculty stress. The primary sources of stress in their lives stemmed from work/job concerns. Factors most frequently correlated with stress were those related to general fatigue, irritability, the desire for a vacation, moodiness, and depression.
