Job dissatisfaction among nursing faculty could have a significant impact on nursing faculty retention and student enrollment in nursing programs. The purpose of this qualitative instrumental case study was to gain insight into the perspectives of faculty members who teach nursing education in a university program. This study used Herzberg, Mausner, and Snyderman's motivation-hygiene theory to explore employee satisfaction and dissatisfaction in the workplace. The research question focused on the perspectives of nursing educators and challenges they face. Data were collected through individualized interviews with 15 nurse educators, using open-ended questions and reviewing relevant documents. The data were analyzed by sorting and highlighting the participants' responses and using codes to categorize and develop themes. Six overarching themes (expectations, motivations, benefits, job fulfillment, challenges, and job dissatisfaction) and 3 subthemes (remuneration, excessive workload, and funding for advancing education, recruitment, and mentoring) emerged. These themes and subthemes identified critical aspects of job satisfaction that may help nursing faculty and nursing administrators strengthen the positive and diminish the negative aspects of the job for greater faculty satisfaction. Nursing leaders and health care administrators can use these findings to bring awareness to the nursing education community by creating realistic goals that address job satisfaction, retention, and recruitment of nursing faculty. These changes will improve student enrollment and increase the number of nurses available to provide quality care throughout the nurses' respective communities.

Student incivility has become a problem in nursing schools around the country. Researchers have noted that uncivil behavior that goes unaddressed may compromise the educational environment. Nursing faculty have differing standards about uncivil behavior; thus, students experience inconsistencies in approaches to incivility. The purpose of this mixed-methods explanatory study was to explore nursing faculty experiences with, understandings of, and responses to student incivility. The conceptual framework was Clark's continuum of incivility and the conceptual model for fostering civility in nursing education. Descriptive analysis of the level and frequency of uncivil behaviors of nursing faculty members (17 full-time and 15 part-time), as measured by the Incivility in Nursing Education-Revised survey, indicated that faculty most frequently experienced uncivil behaviors at the lower end of the continuum and rarely encountered those at the higher end. A purposeful sample of 12 faculty members (10 full-time and 2 part-time) participated in semistructured interviews, and data were open coded and analyzed thematically. Stress was identified as a contributing factor to student incivility, and faculty responses varied based on the learning environment. Nursing faculty expressed the need for more consistency in responding to student incivility. Based on the research findings, a 3-day professional development workshop on promoting civility in the academic environment was created. By learning practical ways to respond to, and possibly prevent, uncivil behavior in student nurses, workshop participants have the potential to positively affect the lives of future nurses, the health care personnel with whom they will work, and the patients for whom they will care.

This syndrome is expressed in the most advanced stage of occupational stress, characterized by three dimensions: energy, physical and emotional exhaustion, low personal accomplishment and loss of motivation. There are several professions predisposed to the development of this syndrome, such as nursing and teaching. OBJECTIVE: To describe the scientific papers in the literature on the prevalence and factors associated with burnout syndrome in nursing faculty and estimate the prevalence and factors associated with burnout syndrome in nurses teachers from three Public Universities in the Northeast of Brazil. METHODS: A systematic review was prepared and an epidemiological study conducted with 81 nurses teachers. Student Survey - an individual questionnaire, self-report containing the Job Content Questionnaire and the adaptation of the Maslach Burnout Inventory was used. The prevalence ratio was used to measure the association between the study variables. RESULTS: There was a small number of studies on the burnout syndrome in nursing teachers and the lack of an agreed definition for the syndrome. The majority of the teachers were women, young, married, master, recent enrollment at the University and working regime of exclusive dedication. About the life habits, physical inactivity, did not use alcohol and tobacco. It was found moderate prevalence of burnout syndrome, especially those under the age of 44, married, with children, with a doctorate, with weekly working hours of 40 hours, who taught in two or more undergraduate classes, who had another link employment in that did not practice physical activity and considered that work with high demand. CONCLUSION: The reduction of overhead and psychological work demands can be important actions for the prevention of burnout in nurses teachers. This study supports development of strategies for prevention, detection of suspicious and adoption of mitigating behaviors of burnout syndrome in nurses teachers and thus can contribute to improving the quality of life of these professionals and result in improving the quality of education. / A S?ndrome de Burnout tem despertado interesse nas investiga??es recentes, uma vez que ? considerada um agravo social de grande import?ncia para a sa?de dos trabalhadores. Esta S?ndrome ? expressa no est?gio mais avan?ado do estresse ocupacional, sendo caracterizada por tr?s dimens?es: esgotamento energ?tico, emocional e f?sico, baixa realiza??o pessoal no trabalho e perda da motiva??o. Existem v?rias profiss?es predispostas ao aparecimento dessa S?ndrome, como a enfermagem e a doc?ncia. OBJETIVO: Descrever a produ??o cient?fica existente na literatura sobre a preval?ncia e fatores associados ? S?ndrome de Burnout em docentes de enfermagem e estimar a preval?ncia e fatores associados ? S?ndrome de Burnout em professores enfermeiros de tr?s Universidades P?blicas do Nordeste do Brasil. M?TODO: Foi elaborada uma revis?o sistem?tica e um estudo epidemiol?gico transversal, realizado com 81 professores enfermeiros. Foi utilizado um question?rio individual, autoaplic?vel contendo o Job Content Questionnaire e a adapta??o do Maslach Burnout Inventory - Student Survey. A Raz?o de Preval?ncia foi usada para medir a associa??o entre as var?veis estudadas. RESULTADOS: Observou-se um pequeno n?mero de estudos sobre a S?ndrome de Burnout em professores de enfermagem e a aus?ncia de uma defini??o consensual para a s?ndrome. A maioria dos docentes estudados eram mulheres, jovens, casados, com mestrado, ingresso recente na Universidade e regime de trabalho em dedica??o exclusiva. Sobre os h?bitos de vida, praticavam atividade f?sica, n?o faziam uso de ?lcool e fumo. Constatou-se moderada preval?ncia da S?ndrome de Burnout, principalmente naqueles com idade inferior a 44 anos, casados, com filhos, com doutorado, com carga hor?ria semanal de trabalho de 40h, que ensinavam em duas ou mais turmas de gradua??o, que apresentavam outro v?nculo empregat?cio, nos que n?o praticavam atividade f?sica e nos que consideravam o trabalho com alta exig?ncia. CONCLUS?O: A redu??o da sobrecarga e da demanda psicol?gica do trabalho podem ser a??es importantes para a preven??o de Burnout em professores enfermeiros. Este estudo fornece subs?dios para elabora??o de estrat?gias de preven??o, detec??o de suspeitos e ado??o de condutas minimizadoras da S?ndrome de Burnout em professores enfermeiros e dessa forma, pode contribuir com a melhoria da qualidade de vida desses profissionais e como consequ?ncia na melhoria da qualidade do ensino.

The study analyzed burnout of nursing faculty to determine the frequency, intensity, and predictors of burnout. Christian Maslach's burnout questionnaire, Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), and a demographic data survey were used to measure burnout. A random selection of 250 nursing faculty was mailed both a burnout questionnaire and a demographic data survey. There were 192 useable responses that were used in the study. Each questionnaire and demographic data survey were reviewed for completeness and rechecked for accurate data entry. The results were presented in summary tables. Data analysis included frequency, means, Pearson r, and downward, stepwise regression analyses. There was a high frequency and intensity of burnout in all nursing faculty, as measured in the three MBI subscales (depersonalization, emotional exhaustion, and personal accomplishment). There was a significant relationship between the number of hours nursing faculty spend with academic advising and the intensity of emotional exhaustion. None of the demographic data, except hours spent in academic advising, were a predictor of burnout.

Introdução: Os profissionais que atuam na educação no ensino superior de enfermagem necessitam se conscientizar de que a docência exige capacitação específica na área pedagógica. Objetivos: Avaliar a formação de docentes enfermeiros atuantes em um Curso de Graduação em Enfermagem. Método: Adotado o Estudo de Caso, na vertente qualitativa, pautado na fenomenologia social de Alfred Schütz, como referencial de análise. Os dados foram coletados mediante a adoção das técnicas de Entrevista e de Grupo Focal. Foram entrevistadas, em 2014, 12 docentes enfermeiras, das quais 6 participaram do Grupo Focal, de um Curso de Graduação em Enfermagem de uma Instituição de Ensino Superior (IES) da cidade de São Paulo, que atuam há mais de um ano na instituição ministrando aulas teóricas e acompanhando estágios. Resultados e Discussão: A análise das entrevistas permitiu a elaboração das Categorias: Influência familiar e acadêmica, Experiências profissionais e pessoais e Inserção na docência, emergentes do concreto vivido e que trouxeram os elementos que contribuíram para a formação docente das entrevistadas. As Categorias Empíricas dos motivos para: Ser docente de enfermagem no ensino superior, Exercer a docência neste contexto e Refletir sobre a essência e ação docente foram construídas a partir das Unidades de Significado extraídas dos discursos dos sujeitos da pesquisa e embasadas no movimento dialético da ação-reflexão-ação descrito por Schön. O Relatório Síntese resultante desta análise foi o elemento disparador do Grupo Focal que permitiu a elaboração das categorias Formação Docente; Práticas didático-pedagógicas e Proposta Institucional. Considerações Finais: Os motivos porque das enfermeiras docentes desvelados no estudo retratam as experiências, por elas vivenciadas, antes da inserção no ensino superior de Enfermagem. Os motivos para resgatados nesta pesquisa, explicitaram as vivências das docentes no exercício do ensino superior de Enfermagem. A contribuição de impacto, desta pesquisa, emergiu do Grupo Focal com a Categoria Proposta Institucional, que integra as US: Uniformidade do ensino na IES; Socialização do Projeto Político Pedagógico e do Plano de Ensino; Avaliação de desempenho docente-discente; Planejamento de capacitação docente; Integração entre docentes; Saúde do trabalhador docente e Monitoramento do discente, que serão os alicerces fundamentais das futuras transformações na IES. Esta pesquisa contribui para a reflexão dos docentes e dos gestores educacionais sobre a importância do investimento na formação pedagógica dos docentes de enfermagem tendo, como meta, a qualidade do processo ensino aprendizado. / Introduction: Professionals working in education in higher education nursing need to be aware that teaching requires specific training in the pedagogical area. Objectives: Evaluate the training of the nursing professoriate in High Education Nursing Degree Courses. Method: The Case Study was based on the qualitative methodology, specifically the social phenomenological approach from Alfred Schutz which was used as referential for the analysis. Data has been collected using the Interview and Focal Group methods. In 2014, a group of 12 nursing teaching staff employed at an Institute of Higher Education in São Paulo City were interviewed. Six of these were part of a Focal Group and they all had been working as professors and were supervising apprenticeships for over a year at that particular Institution. Results and Discussion: The analysis of interviews unveiled the interviewees lived concrete which were then split into the following Categories, that brought the elements that contributed to the teacher education of the respondents, such as family and academic influence, professional and personal experiences and the inclusion in teaching. The Empirical categories of \" reasons \" were constructed from the Meaning of units drawn from the speeches of the research subjects , with the foundation of the dialectical movement of action -reflection-action described by Schön , who led the analysis of being a nursing teacher in higher education, the exercise teaching in this context and reflection on the essence and teaching activities. The report resulting from this analysis Synthesis was the trigger element of the Focus Group that enabled the development of the categories Teacher Training; Didactic and pedagogical practices and Institutional Proposal. Final Considerations: The Nursing Professors reasons why found in the study portray their personal experiences prior to entering Nursing Higher Education Teaching. The reasons to uncovered in this research highlighted their professional experiences as Nursing Professors in Higher Education. The most significant contribution to this research came from the Focal Group with the Institutional Proposal, which integrates the Understanding Units: Standardisation of Teaching; Making the Political/Pedagogical Project and the Teaching Plan widely available; Evaluation of how efficient is the relationship between teacher/learner; The Teacher Training Planning; Integration of Teachers; Workers Health; Learners Monitoring, who will be the cornerstones of future changes in the IES. This research aims to contribute to the reflection of the teaching staff and education managers on the importance of investing in pedagogical training of nursing faculty having the goal, the quality of teaching learning process

Sabendo das complexas cobranças que assolam os docentes universitários, tendo em vista as exigências do cumprimento de tarefas relacionadas ao ensino, pesquisa, extensão/assistência, bem como atividades administrativas, isto acaba levando o professorado ao adoecimento em função de suas excessivas atribuições. Objetivos: 1) Levantar com os docentes de uma faculdade de enfermagem estadual, o significado que eles atribuem à sua profissão, relacionando os elementos facilitadores e dificultadores da sua atuação profissional, considerando a sua visão da enfermagem: tradicional, atual e do futuro; 2) Destacar suas atividades ocupacionais e de lazer realizadas no seu tempo livre, identificando-as como meio de promoção da sua saúde física e mental; 3) Verificar no projeto político-pedagógico da sua escola, como ocorreu a sua inserção, identificando os desafios do currículo novo, averiguando o significado da Síndrome de Burnout e propondo sugestões para leituras sobre essa síndrome, enquanto programa educativo. Metodologia: Realizou-se uma pesquisa qualitativa, mediatizada pela pesquisa-ação. Nesse estudo exploratório, utilizou-se de questionário (dados pessoais e de formação, além da visão dos docentes de enfermagem sobre o tema central). Pesquisamos 13 docentes, de ambos os sexos, dos três departamentos existentes na instituição, que aceitaram participar da pesquisa, após assinatura do termo de consentimento, e aprovação do comitê de ética. A coleta foi realizada por correspondência, na casela do professor, alocado em seu próprio departamento, devolvendo-o em tempo pré-determinado. Usou também a observação participante para registro de dados do local. Resultados: Ca amostra constituiu-se de 13 docentes do curso de graduação, maioria mulher, casada e católica, com mais de 40 anos e com filhos; todos com título de doutor atuando, na graduação pós-graduação. Em relação à escolha da profissão, a maioria respondeu por vocação e afinidade. Sobre a carreira, a maioria a percebe como importante, porém exigente, desgastante e estressora, trazendo satisfação profissional, como: honrarias, ascensão, orientação de aluno. Mas traz insatisfação como: excesso de trabalho, de reuniões, de responsabilidades, além de estresse. Dá significado à profissão de amorosidade, troca, diálogo, etc. Seu papel é de facilitador, mediador, humanizador, problematizador e transformador. Como pesquisador, valoriza a construção do conhecimento e o desenvolvimento de pesquisa. E na extensão, se vê como parceiro e articulador no tripé da universidade pública. Relativa à profissão tradicional, a vê como tecnicista, fragmentada, biologicista e desvalorizada. Atualmente, a vê crescendo, internacionalizando e construindo o próprio conhecimento. Para o futuro vislumbra reconhecimento, valorização, otimismo e humanização. Sobre aspectos favoráveis da docência estão o relacionamento interpessoal, ensino, pesquisa e extensão. E os desfavoráveis estão: excesso de atividades, questão anti-éticas e poucos investimentos. Sua inserção no currículo novo é ambivalente, mas com relação de horizontalidade. Traz na saúde mental comprometimento, que caracteriza a Síndrome de Burnout. Conclusão: Portanto, os pesquisados se vêem vocacionados, ambivalentes, trazendo elementos dificultadores e facilitadores à profissão docente, afirmando gostar da profissão, entendendo-a como provocadora de excesso de trabalho, estresse e cansaço. Mas buscam lazer e terapia para alivio das tensões. Reconhecem sinais que caracterizam a Síndrome de Burnout, sem saber que isso retrata essa nomenclatura. Avaliam que o texto apresentado foi interessante, destacando a sua importância para o seu esclarecimento/orientação, como ação educativa. / The complex demands directed to the university faculty in terms of the exigencies of accomplishing teaching, research, and extension/assistance tasks, as well as administrative activities eventually make the professional fall ill due to excessive attributions. Objectives: 1) Survey the faculty of a state nursing college about the meaning they assign to their profession, relating to aspects that make their work easier or more difficult, considering their traditional, current and future nursing perspectives; 2) Highlight their occupational and free-time leisure activities, identifying them as a means for promoting their physical and mental health; 3) Verifying how they were inserted in their colleges political-educational project, and identify the challenges of the new curriculum, verifying the meaning of Burnout Syndrome and proposing reading suggestions about it, as an educational program. Methodology: a qualitative research was performed by means of action research. A questionnaire was used (personal and educational data, I n addition to the nursing facultys view regarding the main issue) in this exploratory study. Thirteen faculty members were interviewed. They were men and women from three departments of the institution, who agreed to participate in the study and provided written consent. The study was approved by the ethics committee. Data collection was performed by correspondence sent to the faculty by their personal mail box located in their department, and the questionnaire was returned within a pre-established time. Participant observation was also used to record the data of the location. Results: the sample consisted of 13 faculty members of the undergraduate program, most were women, married, and catholic, aged over 40 years and with children.; all participants held a Ph.D. and worked with the undergraduate or graduate program. In terms of their choice of the profession, most answered it was based on vocation and affinity. Regarding their career, most perceive it as important, but demanding, wearing and stressing. It provides professional fulfillment, like honors, professional growth, and advising students, but also dissatisfaction, such as excessive work, meetings, responsibilities, and stress. It assigns meaning to the profession of lovability, exchange, dialogue, etc. Their role is one of a facilitator, mediator, problem-solver, and transformer. As a researcher, they value knowledge construction and research development. In extension they see themselves as a partner and articulator in the public university tripod. As to the tradition profession, they see it as technicist, fragmented, biologicist, and unvalued. Currently, they see it as under development, become international and building its own knowledge. For the future, they foresee acknowledgement, valorization, optimism, and humanization. Favorable aspects of the faculty profession are interpersonal relationship, teaching, research and extension. Unfavorable aspects regard excessive activities, antiethical issues, and few investments. Their insertion in the new curriculum is ambivalent, but with a horizontal relationship. There is a commitment to mental health, which characterizes the Burnout Syndrome, Conclusion: Therefore, the subjects see themselves as having vocation, ambivalent, with aspects that make the faculty profession easier and more difficult, and they state they like their profession and see it as one that causes excessive work load, stress, and tiredness. However, they seek leisure and therapy to relieve their tension. They recognize signs that characterize Burnout Syndrome without knowing it represents this nomenclature. They evaluate the presented text as interesting, highlighting the importance of clarification/instruction as an educational action.
