Background and Aim: To perform plans and achieve their goals,
organizations are in need of different factors. One of the most important of which
is the existence of an ideal organizational climate and participation. The main goal
of this study is to determine the relationship between organizational climate and
faculty members' participation in decision makings at Shahid Sadoughi University
of Medical Sciences (SSUMS) in Yazd.
Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional, descriptive and
analytical study induced in 2011-2012. The research population comprised all 292
SSUMS faculty members. 72 members were selected through random-category
sampling method. For data collection, two questionnaires included organizational
climate and participation were used. The reliability of two questionnaires were 0.86
and 0.85, respectively, using Cronbach's alpha coefficient. The validity of both
questionnaires were confirmed by expert panel. The data were analyzed using
SPSS software version 18. For descriptive results, and used Pearson test for
Analytical results.
Results: The average of total participation rate for faculty members was
computed to be 3.43. The total figure for organizational climate with a mean of
82.6 was obtained from the total average of micro-scale scores. A Pearson
correlation coefficient of 0.418 showed that there was a direct relationship between
organizational climate and faculty members' participation.
Conclusion: In spite of weakness of counselling system and team work system,
and approach diversity between the faculty members, they are enthusiastic to
cooperate to solve the university problems. Therefore we suggest more financial
and spiritual mechanisms for autonomy of the faculty members.
