在精神科护理中,女性护士倾向于花更多的时间与病人建立融洽的关系,并与同事建立合作的工作关系;她们遇到更多的病人性骚扰。相比之下,男护士回应侵略性的病人,往往抵制身体照顾女病人,他们遇到更多的身体和言语攻击的病人。这些性别差异可能导致工作压力的差异。我们定量地研究了精神科护士工作压力的性别差异。精神科护士工作压力源量表和压力反应量表的简要工作压力问卷进行了管理,159名女性和85名男性日本精神科护士。结果显示,女护士在精神科护理能力、对护理工作的态度、疲劳和焦虑等应激反应方面的应激水平显著高于男护士。此外,影响压力反应的因素在两性之间有所不同。特别是,男护士报告说,更大的烦躁情绪受到病人的态度。护理态度影响焦虑和躯体症状,精神科护理能力影响抑郁情绪。这些差异的知识可以导致更好的精神卫生保健干预精神科护士。
In psychiatric nursing, female nurses tend to spend more time building rapport with patients and developing cooperative working relationships with colleagues; they encounter more sexual harassment by patients. In contrast, male nurses respond to aggressive patients and tend to resist physically caring for female patients; they encounter more physical and verbal assault from patients. These gender differences might result in differences in job-related stress. We quantitatively examined gender differences in psychiatric nurses' job stress. The Psychiatric Nurse Job Stressor Scale and the Stress Reaction Scale of the Brief Job Stress Questionnaire were administered to 159 female and 85 male Japanese psychiatric nurses. The results indicated that female nurses had significantly higher stress levels than males related to psychiatric nursing ability, attitude towards nursing, and stress reactions of fatigue and anxiety. Moreover, the factors affecting stress reactions differed somewhat between sexes. In particular, male nurses reported that greater irritability was affected by patients' attitudes. Their anxiety and somatic symptoms were affected by their attitude towards nursing, and depressed mood was affected by psychiatric nursing ability. Knowledge of these differences can lead to better mental health-care interventions for psychiatric nurses.
