ABSTRACT

Objective: To explore the psychological resilience of nurses and its influencing factors. Methods from April 2019 to March 2022, 1000 nurses were selected from 17 comprehensive hospitals in our district by cluster sampling. Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90), Self-efficacy Scale (GSES) and Simple Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ) were used to evaluate the resilience, mental health status, self-efficacy and simple coping style of all the enrolled nurses. Record the psychological resilience score of nurses in this group; Observe the scores of psychological resilience of nurses with different social indicators such as different age intervals, different working years and different educational levels; According to the nurses' SCL-90 scale score, the total score of 160 was divided into two groups: mental health group and psychological problem group, and the scores of nurses' psychological resilience in different psychological states were counted. Pearson correlation statistical method was used to analyze the correlation between various factors and nurses' psychological resilience. Results: The average score of self-improvement dimension, tenacity dimension and optimism dimension were (3.57 0.63), (3.53 0.59) and (3.36 0.84) respectively. The average score of nurses' SCL-90 was (127.94 39.45), and there were 234 nurses (23.4%) with a total score greater than 160. The score of GSES scale for nurses was (24.67 7.06); The score of positive coping style and negative coping style in nurses' SCSQ was (25.01 7.49) and (10.15 4.68) respectively. Resilience of nurses is negatively correlated with age, mental health status (SCL-90 scale score) and negative coping style, and positively correlated with education level, professional title and self-efficacy (GSES scale score). Conclusion: The scores of nurses' psychological resilience in hospitals are generally low. By analyzing the psychological resilience of nurses and the influence of related factors, it can provide scientific basis for hospital nursing managers to take effective measures to improve nurses' psychological resilience, which is of great benefit to promoting nurses' mental health level, thus improving the quality of clinical nursing work and promoting the vigorous development of nursing industry.
