ABSENTEEISM AMONG HOSPITAL NURSES: AN IDIOGRAPHIC-LONGITUDINAL ANALYSIS.
通过数月追踪护士每日工作事件评分，发现健康疲劳等事件普遍预测缺勤，而家庭病患等事件仅对部分个体有效，且某些事件影响缺勤意愿而非实际行为。
For several months, nurses completed ratings of the degree to which certain events relevant to absence were present during each of their scheduled workdays. The event ratings for days when the nurses decided to be absent were then compared with those for days when the nurses attended. As expected, certain events, such as ill health and tiredness, tended to covary and proved to be consistently related to absenteeism across nurses. Also as expected, some events that were not especially relevant for the nurses as a whole, like having a sick family member or friend and concerns about previous poor attendance, nonetheless emerged as being relevant to the absence behavior of certain individuals. Finally, some events were consistently related to the nurses' expressed desire to be absent but not to actual absences. We discuss these differences from two perspectives, one emphasizing the role of attribution bias and the other, a two-stage process in which such bias has no major role.
