Introduction: Organizational culture is formed via communication, resolving conflicts, team work and interconnection. The aim of the study was to present the connections between organizational culture and job satisfaction indicators. Methods: A quantitative descriptive approach was used. The study included nursing employees and medical practitioners in six Slovenian hospitals. A 30 per cent quota sample was used, with a response rate of 35.2 % (n = 310). The Organization Culture Assessment Instrument (OCAI) (α = 0,818) and Index of Work Satisfaction (α = 0,921) questionnaires were used. The data was processed with SPSS 20.0 statistical software by using the t-test, single variance analysis, correlation, factor and regression analysis. Results: The greatest total average value among employees of both job groups with regard to organizational culture was the market (x = 28.21) and hierarchy (x = 27.57). Job satisfaction indicators (collaboration, leadership, decision-making, autonomy) can be explained in 20 % of cases with adhocracy organizational culture (β = 0.318, p < 0.001), market (β = 0.219, p < 0.001) and clan (β = 0.161, p = 0.006). Discussion and conclusion: In Slovenian hospitals, control over work, abiding by the rules and attaining, goals prevails. An overview of the literature reveals the influence of culture on satisfaction. Other factors affecting satisfaction, including stress and abuse of hierarchical power, should be studied.

IZVLEČEKUvod: E-izobraževanje je v terciarnem izobraževanju vse bolj pomembno, kljub temu pa tovrsten način učenja ni povsod uspešno implementiran. Na uspešnost uvajanja e-izobraževanja v študij pomembno vpliva pripravljenost na tovrstno obliko izobraževanja in odnos študentov do njega. Namen raziskave je bil proučiti naklonjenost študentov zdravstvene nege do e-izobraževanja. Metode: Kvantitativno raziskavo s spletnim anketiranjem smo izvedli v marcu 2014, na priložnostnem vzorcu (n = 92) študentov Fakultete za zdravstvo Jesenice. Koeficient Cronbach alfa je bil 0,966. Podatke smo obdelali s SPSS 20.0. Uporabili smo frekvenčno analizo, t-test za neodvisne vzorce, enosmerno analizo variance, korelacijsko, faktorsko in regresijsko analizo. Rezultati: Prednosti e-izobraževanja so najvišje ocenjene s strani študentov, ki so v e-učilnici sodelovali pri treh predmetih (p = 0,000). Odnos do e-izobraževanja je povezan z računalniško pismenostjo študentov (p < 0,05). Na odnos študentov do e-izobraževanja statistično značilno pozitivno vplivajo njegove prednosti (0,211< β <0,834, p = 0,000). S tremi faktorji se lahko pojasni 64,72 % variabilnosti skupnih dejavnikov odnosa študentov do e-izobraževanja: uporaba e-učilnice, zadovoljstvo s skupinskim delom in način učenja. Diskusija in zaključek: Anketiranci niso naklonjeni e-učenju, vendar pa smo prepoznali več dejavnikov, ki pozitivno vplivajo na njihov odnos do e-učenja. Raziskavo bi morali razširiti tako, da bi uporabili naključno izbrani reprezentativni vzorec ter mešane metode raziskovanja. ABSTRACTIntroduction: Over the past decades, e-learning has become an important part of tertiary education, yet it is not always successfully implemented. The success of implementing e-learning in study programmes is influenced by the readiness to embrace this type of learning and by the students' attitudes towards it. The purpose of this research was to identify the nursing students' attitudes to e-learning. Methods: Quantitative research was conducted in March 2014 on a convenience sample of students from the Faculty of Health Care Jesenice (n = 92). Cronbach's alpha was 0.966. The online survey was used as a research instrument. The data gathered were processed with the statistical package SPSS 20.0. The frequency analysis, t-test for independent samples, one-way analysis of variance, correlation, regression and factor analysis were applied. Results: Benefits of e-learning were most highly rated by the students that participated in the e-classroom in three courses (p = 0.000). There are statistically significant differences (p < 0.05) in the students' attitudes based on their level of computer skills. A positive and statistically significant correlation between the students' attitude towards e-learning and the advantages of e-learning (0.211 < β < 0.834, p = 0.000) were established. The following factors can explain 64.72 % of the variability of the common factors of the students' attitude towards e-learning: use of e-classroom, satisfaction with the group work and learning style...
