VALIDATION OF HEALTHCARE WORKERS’ MOTIVATION SCALE IN KAZAKHSTAN
Background: Understanding healthcare worker motivation is crucial for improving the quality of care and achieving positive healthcare outcomes.
Aim: This study aims to validate a healthcare workers' motivation scale in Kazakhstan, adapted from the original scale developed by J. Lohmann et al. (2017), grounded in the framework of Self-Determination Theory.
Materials and methods: A sample of 1,654 healthcare workers across various medical sectors in Kazakhstan participated in this study. The scale included subscales for intrinsic motivation, integrated regulation, identified regulation, introjected regulation, and external regulation (both social and economic). Data were collected through a structured online questionnaire, and the scale's reliability and validity were assessed using Cronbach's alpha and confirmatory factor analysis.
Results: The healthcare workers' motivation scale demonstrated excellent internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.978) and good construct validity (CFI = 0.944, TLI = 0.935, RMSEA = 0.076), with significant correlations between higher motivation levels and lower burnout rates, as well as increased job satisfaction. The validated scale provides a robust tool for assessing motivation, which can help tailor motivational strategies and interventions to enhance workforce performance and well-being in Kazakhstan’s healthcare system.
Conclusion: The study successfully validated a motivation scale that can be instrumental in understanding and enhancing healthcare worker motivation in Kazakhstan, thereby contributing to better healthcare delivery and worker satisfaction.
