新加坡护士维持精神健康的社会心理因素

Mental Health andrelated Psychosocial Factors of among Nurses in Singapore

以问卷调查方式，探讨护士在高度工作压力下维持心理健康的社会心理因素。受测者为新加坡三家公立医院的护士（Ｎ＝１０４３，均龄＝３３．８岁，女性占９４％），调查结果表明提升能力和增强体质能有效地抗衡工作压力，消极处理情绪的方式如：埋怨或压抑情绪对心理健康有害无益。高自尊为舒缓工作压力、促进精神健康的最重要因素，相对而言。

This questionnaire survey examined the psychosocial factors of mental health among nurses under high levels of work stress.The participants were 1043 nurses(mean age=33.8 years old,94% were females)from three public hospitals in Singapore.Results indicated that enhancement of ability and physical health had significant contribution to stress resistance.Negative emotive copings,e.g.,blaming others or suppression of feelings,were found to be harm to mental health.High self esteem was the most important factor in alleviating work stress and promoting mental health status.Relatively speaking,family support was less important.
