Description
Summary:碩士 === 國防大學政治作戰學院 === 社會工作碩士班 === 103 === This study examines how army counseling staffs’ occupational prestige and role stress affect their professional commitments. Totally 264 questionnaires were collected between February 1 and March 14, 2015 with 252 valid copies in the end. Our findings shows that: First, some of demographic variables show significant differences on the role stress and the professional commitment. Second, the occupational prestige is negatively correlative with role stress; professional commitment are both positively correlative with occupational prestige and role stress. Third, “role ambiguity” and “professional level” can effectively predict “professional commitments”. Fourth, “role stress” and “occupational prestige” can effectively predict “professional commitments”. Several suggestions are proposed according to the findings above: (a) army counseling staffs required independent promotion system; (b) the job openings required by professional training can only be recruited by the staffs with professional background; (c) the staffs with professional licenses should be rewarded by salary bonus; (d) their job description and boundary should be more specific; (e) hiring more civil professional counseling staffs for inside training.
