There was no significant in wellness according to general characteristics of subjects. The subjects' wellness had a significant negative correlation with quality of sleep(r=-0.31, p<0.001), and a significant positive correlation with job commitment(r=0.45, p<0.001). Regression analysis to identify factors affecting the wellness of night shift nurses showed that job commitment was the most significant factor (p<0.001), followed by quality of sleep(p=0.049). In the regression analysis, quality of sleep and job commitment were significant predictors and explained 21.9%(p<0.001) of wellness.
