It has become a worldwide issue in many countries including Thailand. This study aims to examine the relationships between job-personal resources and work engagement and the mediating role of psychological conditions in the relationship between job-personal resources and work engagement. The study was conducted in private hospitals of health tourism in Bangkok, Thailand. The sample consisted of 361 registered nurses. Questionnaires were used to collect the data on job-personal resources, work engagement, and psychological conditions. The findings reveal that the level of nurses’ work engagement is above moderate. The result of hierarchical multiple regressions analysis shows significant direct relationship between job-personal resources (self-efficacy, perceived supervisor support, and reward & recognition) and work engagement. Psychological conditions are found partially mediate the relationship between job-personal resources and work engagement. The results of this study provide decision makers, policy makers, and practitioners in the medical tourism industry with an understanding of the factors (job - personal resources and psychological conditions) that influence work engagement among nurses in private hospitals.

description High employee turnover has accounted for the shortage of manpower in nursing. It has become a worldwide issue in many countries including Thailand. This study aims to examine the relationships between job-personal resources and work engagement and the mediating role of psychological conditions in the relationship between job-personal resources and work engagement. The study was conducted in private hospitals of health tourism in Bangkok, Thailand. The sample consisted of 361 registered nurses. Questionnaires were used to collect the data on job-personal resources, work engagement, and psychological conditions. The findings reveal that the level of nurses’ work engagement is above moderate. The result of hierarchical multiple regressions analysis shows significant direct relationship between job-personal resources (self-efficacy, perceived supervisor support, and reward & recognition) and work engagement. Psychological conditions are found partially mediate the relationship between job-personal resources and work engagement. The results of this study provide decision makers, policy makers, and practitioners in the medical tourism industry with an understanding of the factors (job - personal resources and psychological conditions) that influence work engagement among nurses in private hospitals.
