精神科护理总是被认为是一个紧张的护理实践领域。然而，由于缺乏这一领域的研究，支持这一主张的经验证据是有限的。本研究目的在探讨精神科护理特定领域的职业压力。研究是探索性的，因此关注的是发现和描述，而不是测试明确的假设和因果关系的发展。这项研究有四个主要目标。首先，描述两个地区卫生当局的急性入院病房的精神科护士的工作中存在的各种压力源。第二，使用公认的和经过充分验证的记录倦怠水平的工具来测量压力的影响。第三，通过使用特定的理论框架来识别研究对象所使用的应对策略类型。第四，注意研究中确定的压力源、压力的影响和应对方式之间是否存在任何明确的联系。该项目的概念基础是拉扎勒斯的压力和应对的认知理论和Maslach的倦怠模型。
Psychiatric nursing is invariably assumed to be a stressful area of nursing practice. Empirical evidence to support this proposition is limited, however, due to the lack of research in this field. The purpose of this project was to examine occupational stress in a specified area of psychiatric nursing. The research was exploratory and therefore the concern was discovery and description rather than the testing of clear hypotheses and the development of causal relationships. The study has four main objectives. First, to describe the various stressors present in the work of the psychiatric nurse in the acute admission wards of two district health authorities. Secondly, to measure the effects of stress using a recognized and well-validated instrument for recording levels of burnout. Thirdly, through the use of a particular theoretical framework to identify the types of coping strategy used by the participants in the study. Fourthly, to note any clear associations between the stressors, the effects of stress and the ways of coping identified in the study. The conceptual basis for the project was Lazarus's cognitive theory of stress and coping and Maslach's model of burnout.
