Data were collected from nurses with registered nurse status or a bachelor of science in nursing degrees working in hospital settings in the United States (N = 82), who completed the Job Satisfaction Survey and the Turnover Intentions Scale. The results of the multiple linear regression analysis indicated the full model, containing the 3 predictor variables (work environment, management support, opportunities for promotion), did significantly predict nurses' voluntary turnover intentions, F (3, 78) = 7.29, p
