A Study on the Relationship between Mental Resilience, Work-Family Conflict, and Anxiety of Nurses in Shandong, China

Abstract

Based on Freud’s personality theory, 839 nurses from 5 public hospitals in Shandong Province were selected by the convenience sampling method. A cross-sectional survey was conducted to investigate the correlation among resilience, work-family conflict (WFC), and anxiety (SAS). The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship among resilience, WFC, and SAS of these nurses and to provide evidence with reducing WFC and SAS for the nurses. The results showed that the total score of resilience, WFC, and SAS was 58.00 ± 18.27 , 53.46 ± 13.29 , and 49.98 ± 14.73 , respectively. There was 47.68% of the nurses that had anxiety, and 10.97% of the nurses had severe anxiety. There were significant differences in the score of SAS among the length of service, self-perceived health status, confidence in nursing professional development, WFC, and resilience ( P < 0.05 ). This study draws the following conclusions: the proportion of anxiety is high, and the level of resilience is lower than the domestic norm. Length of service, self-perceived health status, confidence in nursing professional development, WFC, and resilience were the important influencing factors of anxiety. It is suggested that hospital managers should pay attention to the mental health of nurses, take active intervention measures according to the influencing factors of SAS, improve nurses’ psychological resilience, reduce WFC and anxiety, improve nurses’ mental health and well-being, and ensure nursing safety.

Resilience mediates the influence of hope, optimism, social support, and stress on anxiety severity among Chinese patients with cervical spondylosis

“…We herein found resilience in CS patients was exclusively associated with whether having a comorbid chronic disease, among a host of other non-psychological/socio-demographic variables. Considering that resilience is a dynamic psychological adjustment process and might be impaired due to long-term and chronic unfavorable stimuli (71), one possible explanation was that CS patients with comorbid chronic diseases were more susceptible to physical and psychological tortures, resulting in decreased resilience and anxiety symptoms than those without chronic diseases (72). Therefore, more effort should be made to improve the resilience of those with comorbid chronic diseases.…”

Pengaruh Resilience At Work terhadap Work Family Conflict pada Perawat Wanita

Hasil studi menunjukkan bahwa 32-43 % perawat di Hongkong, 20% bidan di Australia dan 44-66% perawat di Brasil mengalami masalah kesehatan mental akibat dari pekerjaan sehingga menyebabkan penurunan kualitas kinerja perawat terhadap pelayanan kepada pasien (Qi et al, 2022). Serta hasil penelitian di Indonesia yang dilakukan oleh (Pamintaningtiyas et al,2020) menunjukkan sekitar 64% ibu yang bekerja sebagai perawat mengalami work family conflict.…”
