Nursing faculty retention is critical, as faculty retention directly impacts educational programs that produce future nurses poised to meet employment demand. The topics of job satisfaction and commitment are of continued interest as researchers examine factors that affect nursing faculty's intent to stay. Thus, this research focused on job satisfaction that potentially impacts the level of affective organizational commitment among nursing faculty. Regression results revealed that the supervisor, promotion, nature of work, and satisfaction with coworkers were positively related to affective organizational commitment, while nursing pay, benefits, and operating conditions revealed no statistically significant results.
