    Development of healthcare employee satisfaction scale: Reliability and validity study
    (Bayrakol Medical Publisher, 2021) Yilmaz, Fatma Kantas; Kevenk, Ahmet Ugur
    Aim: This study aimed to develop a scale that would help assess the levels of employee satisfaction among healthcare professionals. Material and Methods: In this methodological study, the routine steps of scale development were followed, including the formulation of items, receiving specialist opinion, application, validation and reliability. In the data analysis, exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis for the Employee Satisfaction Scale were performed. Cronbach's alpha coefficients were calculated for each dimension and overall reliability. Results: The data were found to have excellent fitting in exploratory factor analysis with a probability value of p<0.05 and a Kaiser-Mayer'Olkin (KMO) value of 0.866 by Bartlet's test. The overall concept explanatory factor was 70.99%, which was sufficient to assess employee satisfaction. In the confirmatory factor analysis, all covariance values across the sub-dimensions were significant (p 0.05). Factor loadings of items were between 0.57 and 0.96. Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the overall ESS was 0.869. The composite reliability coefficients were 0.70, which meant sufficiency for composite reliability. In addition, the variance for each dimension showed the desired level with a mean of variance (MVE) >0.50. Discussion: In this study, a comprehensive and practical scale with a high reliability-validity level was added to the literature in order to quantify employee satisfaction which is one of the most important components of the healthcare system.

    Hospital Food Services, Patient Satisfaction and Malnutrition Risk Inpatients: A Pilot Study
    (Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2025) Sarac, Dilara Goksenin; Demirel, Birsen; Seven Avuk, Hande; Kevenk, Ahmet Ugur
    Objective: Malnutrition is a preventable issue that complicates patient recovery and increases healthcare costs. This study evaluated inpatients' satisfaction with food services and its impact on malnutrition. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 310 patients (52.6% female, median age 42 years) hospitalized for at least seven days. The NRS-2002 screening test was administered within two days of admission and repeated on day seven, along with the Acute Care Hospital Foodservice Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire (ACHFPSQ). Results: The risk of malnutrition increased from 21.9% initially to 38.7% on the 7-day follow-up evaluation (p < 0.001). Higher ACHFPSQ scores were associated with a decreased malnutrition risk, with significant correlations found between food quality, meal service quality, staff/service issues, and lower malnutrition risk (p < 0.05). Very weak positive but statistically significant relationships were detected between the total scale score, body weight, and BMI (p < 0.05). The risk of malnutrition decreased as food quality (OR = 0.891; p < 0.001), meal service quality (OR = 0.915; p = 0.001), and staff/service issues scores (OR = 0.925; p = 0.010) increased. Conclusions: This study highlights the importance of hospital food service quality in preventing malnutrition among inpatients. [GRAPHICS]

    Person-Supervisor Fit and Organizational Identification: The Mediating Role of Organizational DNA
    (2024) Gönül, Konakay; Mercanlıoglu, Ayse Çıgdem; Dede, Ezgi; Sağlam, Hande; Durmaz, İsmet Burcak Vatansever; Kevenk, Ahmet Ugur
    Purpose- This study has examined unique relationships between person-supervisor fit and organizational identification and the mediating effects of organizational DNA between these two variables. Design/Methodology/Approach- Survey data were obtained from a sample of 575 individuals working in different companies and departments with different job types. Findings- The results revealed that person-supervisor fit, organizational DNA, and organizational identification significantly correlated. Structural equation modeling was conducted to test the mediating effect of organizational DNA. The results indicate that an individual’s perceptions of organizational DNA profiles can mediate the relationship between person-supervisor fit and organizational identification. Discussion- The study highlights the significant impact of \"person-supervisor fit\" and \"organizational DNA\" on fostering a workforce aligned with organizational goals and objectives under managerial supervision. According to the findings, enhancing organizational DNA may offer managers a viable avenue for improving employees' organizational identification.
