Abstract

Background: In a modern era of increased race and key technical variations. The
enhancement of personal performance at work has a great concern by organizations and
researchers. It is thought that individual performance can be rising to the organizational level,
which aids to advance organizational performance and vie with others eventually. Aim: To
construct contextual variables and nurses’ performance model at Zagazig University
Hospitals (ZUH’s) in Egypt. Methods: The descriptive, cross-sectional and correlational
designs were employed to meet the current study's aims This research was executed at the
ZUH’s in Egypt. A stratified proportionate random sample (n = 300) of nurses from various
classes was employed, as well as a jury committee (n = 9). Data was collected using a 9-
questionnaire format and opinion questionnaire sheets. Results: Structural equation
modeling revealed a good fit of the model, χ2/df value < 5, GFI > 0.90, AGFI > 0.90, CFI >
0.90, TLI > 0.90, NFI > 0.90, and IFI > 0.90, RMSEA and RMR ≤ 0.08. There were
statistically significant associations between nurses' performance and self-efficacy at the p-
value.038, role efficacy at p-value0.010, job autonomy at p-value 0.039, career aspiration at
p-value .012and organizational role stress at p-value.046. However, the relationship between
perceived nurses' job performance and remaining influential factors is very week.
Conclusion and recommendations: The contextual variables model affecting nurses'
performance at ZUH’s in Egypt was created and validated. The suggested contextual
variables model affecting nurses' performance should be used at ZUH’s in Egypt
