Accessible summary Job- and organization-related attitude can be defined as a person's general attitude towards his/her job and organization. It can also be defined as the combination of the feelings, opinions and behaviours of the employee towards the job and the organization. The review of literature shows that, in general, the factors affecting the features of job- and organization-related attitude can be divided into three subtitles: sociodemographic characteristics, professional and institutional characteristics, and personal characteristics.

This study is a descriptive and relational study, aiming to investigate the relationship between personality characteristics and job- and organization-related attitude in nursing academicians in Turkey.

The job- and organization-related attitude of the nursing academicians is affected by their socio-economic status, working year, academic title, the temperament feature of novelty seeking and persistence, and the character feature of self-directedness and cooperativeness.
