To determine the degree of psychological distress and fear of COVID-19 experienced by undergraduate student nurses who were about to begin their clinical placements.
A cross-sectional study was carried out with 100 second- and third-year undergraduate student nurses of the University of Zaragoza (Spain). Measures included the Fear of COVID-19 Scale and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales.
Regularly, student nurses did not think of themselves as vulnerable to COVID-19. However, a significant association was observed between the student nurses' level of psychological distress and cohabiting with relatives or people who were considered vulnerable to the infection (p = 0.035). The Depression Anxiety Stress Scale results revealed a low level of psychological distress in general; the Fear of COVID-19 Scale indicated moderate fear (2.94).
Student nurses who lived with their relatives experienced higher levels of stress due to the perceived risk of transmission, but were less fearful of loss of work and income. Anxiety in our sample was associated principally with not knowing their upcoming placement location.
确定即将开始临床实习的本科护生经历的心理困扰和对 COVID-19 的恐惧程度。
对西班牙萨拉戈萨大学的 100 名二、三年级本科护生进行了横断面研究。测量工具包括 COVID-19 恐惧量表和抑郁焦虑压力量表。
护生通常不认为自己易感染 COVID-19。然而,护生的心理困扰程度与与被认为易感染的亲属或人共同居住之间存在显著关联(p=0.035)。抑郁焦虑压力量表的结果显示总体上心理困扰程度较低;COVID-19 恐惧量表表明中度恐惧(2.94)。
与亲属一起居住的护生因传播风险而感到压力更大,但对工作和收入损失的恐惧程度较低。我们样本中的焦虑主要与不知道即将到来的实习地点有关。
