Abstract

This meta-analysis study examined the relationship between organizational commitment and job satisfaction among healthcare professionals. The YÖK Thesis Center database was searched using the keywords "job satisfaction and organizational commitment" between November 19, 2022, and February 3, 2023. The inclusion criteria were (1) being a thesis, (2) examining the relationship between job satisfaction and organizational commitment levels of healthcare professionals in Türkiye, (3) adopting a quantitative research method, and (4) having access to the full text. The literature review yielded 2,998 theses, out of which 22 theses (19 master's theses and three Ph.D. theses), with 5,547 healthcare professionals meeting the inclusion criteria. The correlation effect size was calculated, and the random effect model (p0.22) was used to calculate the joint effect size. The results showed a statistically significant correlation between job satisfaction and organizational commitment among healthcare professionals in Türkiye (M: 0.376; 95% CI: 0.286-0.460), and there was no publication bias. The fact that the results did not change when unpublished studies were included in the analysis positively affected the validity and reliability. Future studies should investigate the relationship between organizational commitment and job satisfaction based on different healthcare professional groups.
