This study examines occupational commitment among a sample of female hospital nurses working at a hospital in an urban Florida community. Previous research on work commitment and women is reviewed, and the significance of domestic relations and gender ideology for organizational commitment is discussed. Three categories of variables are used in the analysis: personal characteristics and experience, domestic relations, and gender ideology. The results revealed that organizational commitment among this sample of nurses has significant negative relationships with feminist gender ideology, and the extent to which work interferes with family life and a significant positive relationship with the presence of children. The implications of these findings are reviewed and the prospects of future research concerning organizational commitment among nurses is discussed
