According to previous studies, nursing students' anger expression patterns, depression and self-esteem significantly affected the physical and mental well-being of patients. It is of utmost importance that the relationship among them is thoroughly investigated in this study.
The purpose of this study was to examine the degrees of anger expression patterns, depression and self-esteem of Korean nursing students and to examine the correlations among them.
This was a descriptive cross-sectional study. The subjects consisted of 320 Korean nursing students at colleges in S and G city, Korea. The measurements were based on the Korean standard STAXI (State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory), SCL-90-R (Symptom Checklist-90-Revision) and SLCS-R (Self-Liking/Self-Competence Scale-Revised Version).
In the analysis of the degrees of variances, the subjects showed lower anger repression, anger expression, control of anger and depression. The degree of self-esteem revealed a higher than the median value. There were significant correlations among anger expression patterns (anger repression, anger expression and anger control), depression and self-esteem.
The study limitations were the degree of representativeness of the setting and sample, and its generalizability.
Based on the findings of this study, interventions are needed for Korean nursing students in order to promote anger management and improved self-esteem.
The development of an anger control programme for nursing students should focus on lowering depression and enhancing self-esteem. One of the policy issues focused on providing anger management programmes for lowering depression and enhancing self-esteem. This study will enable nursing students to recognize the importance of controlling their anger, enhancing their self-esteem, establishing positive emotions and improving their overall well-being as future professional nurses.
根据以往研究，护理专业学生的愤怒表达方式、抑郁情绪和自尊水平会显著影响患者的身心健康。因此，深入研究它们之间的关系至关重要。
本研究旨在调查韩国护理专业学生的愤怒表达方式、抑郁情绪和自尊水平，并探究它们之间的相关性。
这是一项描述性横断面研究。研究对象为韩国S市和G市高校的320名护理专业学生。测量工具基于韩国标准的状态-特质愤怒表达量表（STAXI）、症状自评量表90修订版（SCL-90-R）和自我喜爱/自我能力量表修订版（SLCS-R）。
在方差分析中，研究对象的愤怒抑制、愤怒表达、愤怒控制和抑郁水平较低。自尊水平高于中位数。愤怒表达方式（愤怒抑制、愤怒表达和愤怒控制）、抑郁和自尊之间存在显著相关性。
本研究的局限性在于研究背景和样本的代表性程度及其普遍性。
基于本研究结果，有必要对韩国护理专业学生进行干预，以促进他们的愤怒管理和自尊提升。
为护理专业学生制定愤怒控制计划应侧重于降低抑郁水平和提高自尊。政策问题之一是提供愤怒管理计划以降低抑郁水平和提高自尊。本研究将使护理专业学生认识到作为未来专业护士控制愤怒、增强自尊、建立积极情绪和改善整体幸福感的重要性。
