“…In addition, the mean score of negative perceptions one month after the intervention increased in both groups, indicating that the intervention did not have a signi cant effect on the negative perceptions of the intervention group (P-value = 0.118) and the control group (P-value = 0.931) one month after the intervention. process and in turn prevents the tendency to develop worry and stress and, as a result, creates pleasant thoughts and feelings in the person (21).…”

“…The MAC approach helps to reduce distress in nurses through certain techniques such as teaching breathing with the presence of mind, practicing conscious seeing and hearing, walking techniques with global awareness, staying in the present, observing without judgment, promoting acceptance, and increasing awareness. In addition, continuous mindfulness exercises lead to signi cant behavioral changes in self-care and dealing with confusion in nurses (21). MBCT interventions encourage individuals to practice frequently, focus attention on neutral stimuli and deliberate awareness of the body and mind, release mental preoccupation with threatening thoughts and worry about performance in the exam, and more e cient process of information, reducing physiological distress in the individual (22).…”

Background: Perceived stress is a psychological state or process during which a person perceives a threat to their physical and psychological well-being. One of the most important sources of stress in nursing students is issues related to the nature of the nursing field, especially the completion of clinical internships. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) can affect a person’s perceived stress. To this end, the present study sought to explore the effect of MBCT online training on the level of stress perceived from the clinical environment in nursing students of Kerman University of Medical Sciences in the academic year 2020-2021. Methods: This two-group interventional study was conducted on 82 fourth- and sixth-semester nursing students at Kerman University of Medical Sciences. The level of perceived stress was evaluated before and after the MBCT online training intervention using Cohen’s Perceived Stress Scale-14 (PSS). The participants were divided into intervention and control groups, and the participants in the intervention group attended a 4-session online program for 120-150 minutes, along with daily exercises for 45 minutes. The effect of the intervention on the students’ level of perceived stress was evaluated immediately after and one month after the training intervention. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics including the chi-square test, paired samples t-test, and independent samples t-test. Results: The participants’ average was 21 years, and no significant difference was observed in the demographic variables between the participants in the intervention and control groups. The results showed that the perceived stress in the participants in the intervention group after the MBCT online training program decreased by three points (P-value=0.024). An analysis of positive and negative perceptions of stress indicated that positive perceptions in the students in the intervention group decreased significantly and the average score of positive perceptions after the intervention decreased from 13.195 to 10.71 (p-value = 0.002). The results also showed that the intervention significantly reduced the level of perceived stress in students after the intervention, but its effect was not prolonged. Conclusion: The data in this study showed that the implementation of MBCT online training in clinical settings can reduce the stress perceived by nursing students and nurses working in hospitals, and help them provide better services and nursing care to patients. For this reason, future studies should investigate the long-term effect of MBCT interventions on nursing students’ perceived stress.

“…People who cannot tolerate stress and distress in stressful situations probably get involved in moral problems in the organization. Some findings indicate that mindfulness and cognitive regulation against health anxiety and stress can increase distress tolerance and reduce burnout, which is a significant cause of moral distress [34]. One study showed that distress tolerance reduced the risk of suicide due to firefighters' job stress [35].…”

Background: Nurses in emergency departments are exposed to stress and ethical issues due to the specific nature of their job. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to present a relationship between health anxiety and perceived stress with Moral distress and mediation of turmoil tolerance in emergency department nurses. Methods: This descriptive correlational study was performed on 230 emergency nurses in Tehran in 1399 using available sampling method. In this study, the Cohen, Kamark and Marmelstein (1983) Perceived Stress Questionnaire, Salkowski and Warwick (2002), Simmons and Gahr (2005) Perturbation Tolerance, and Jamton's Moral Perturbation Questionnaire were used. Data analysis was performed by path analysis using SPSS-24 and Amos-24 software. Results: The findings of the study showed that perceived stress (t = 5.58) and health anxiety (t = 7.1) had a positive and direct effect on Moral distress and distress Tolerance(t = 8.33) on Moral distress. The effect is negative and direct (P <0.01). The results also showed that disturbance tolerance has a mediating role in the relationship between perceived fear and health anxiety with moral distress (P <0.01). Conclusion: distress Tolerance mediates the relationship between perceived stress and health anxiety with Moral distress. The findings of this study can be used to improve the degree of distress Tolerance and improve the level of work ethic and reduce the Moral distress of emergency department nurses.

Background: With the spread of infectious diseases, especially coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), healthcare workers are vulnerable to mental health problems. Culture-based interventions in such critical situations are highly effective for the individuals in that cultural context. Objectives: The current study aimed to investigate the effect of Logotherapy Based on Rumi’s Thoughts (LBRT) on depression, anxiety, and distress in frontline nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: The present study employed a quasi-experimental controlled pre-test-post-test design with a 2-month follow-up. This interventional study was conducted on frontline nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic 2020. Imam Khomeini and Fatemeh Zahra hospitals were selected as the research samples, as they were the main educational and medical centers of Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences, Mazandaran, Iran, and provincial referral centers. A total of 32 eligible individuals were selected for experimental (n = 16) and control (n = 16) groups through the convenience sampling method. The data were collected using the Impact of Event Scale-Revised and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. Logotherapy Based on Rumi’s Thoughts included eight sessions of 90 minutes. The control group did not receive any intervention during the study. The data were analyzed using repeated-measures one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results: The results revealed a statistically significant difference between the two groups. The intervention group exhibited lower levels of depression and anxiety among the frontline nurses at the post-test and 2-month follow-up than the control group (P < 0.001). However, there was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of distress at the post-test and 2-month follow-up (P > 0.001). Conclusions: The findings showed that LBRT improved anxiety and depression among frontline nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, this intervention did not significantly affect frontline nurses’ distress during the COVID-19 crisis. Further studies should examine the effectiveness of culture-based interventions in critical situations.
