Prelicensure nursing students experience higher levels of stress, anxiety, and depression than the remainder of the student body.
The purpose of this study was to identify whether implementation of Stress Management and Resiliency Training (SMART) and a relaxation room decreased perceived stress levels in prelicensure nursing students.
This quasi-experimental pre- and posttest interventional study used a within-subjects design. Nursing students were asked to use a relaxation room for 15 minutes following a discussion on stress management and resiliency strategies. The students evaluated their stress level at baseline and at the conclusion of using the relaxation room.
The self-reported stress levels decreased for nearly 90% of the participants following the use of the interventions.
Stress management and resiliency interventions during academic hours decreased the reported stress levels of nursing students. The strategies are beneficial options to reduce stress and improve resiliency skills among prelicensure nursing students.
在获得执照之前，护理专业的学生比其他学生群体经历更高水平的压力、焦虑和抑郁。
本研究的目的是确定实施压力管理和适应力训练（SMART）以及放松室是否可以降低护理专业学生的感知压力水平。
这项准实验性的前后测试干预研究采用了自身对照设计。在讨论了压力管理和适应力策略后，护理专业的学生被要求在放松室中放松 15 分钟。学生在基线和使用放松室结束时评估他们的压力水平。
近 90%的参与者在使用干预措施后自我报告的压力水平降低。
在上课时间进行压力管理和适应力干预可以降低护理专业学生的报告压力水平。这些策略是减少护理专业学生压力和提高适应力技能的有益选择。
