High levels of empathy and self-awareness and low level of stress among nursing students are the core elements of improving patients' care and outcomes. The purpose of this study is to assess the levels, relationships, and predictors of empathy, self-awareness, and perceived stress in a sample of undergraduate Jordanian nursing students.
A descriptive cross-sectional design was employed to collect data from 330 students using a web-based survey.
The total mean scores of empathy, self-awareness, and perceived stress were 75.75, 40.17, and 55.65, respectively. Students who are studying in public universities, with higher GPA, who have no intention to leave nursing, and who are satisfied with nursing; reported higher level of empathy. Students with lower income level, who have no intention to leave nursing, and who are satisfied with nursing; reported higher level of self-awareness. Female students, those who sleeping 6 h and less, did not get a balanced diet or perform exercise, studying in public universities, lower GPA, have intention to leave nursing, and did not satisfy with nursing; reported higher level of perceived stress.
Nursing students reported adequate empathy level, low self-awareness level, and moderate perceived stress level. Students who are satisfied and have no intention to leave nursing reported higher level of empathy, self-awareness, and perceived stress. It is necessary to conduct interventional programs that enhance students' well-being especially empathy and self-awareness, and reduce the level of their stress.
护理专业学生具备高水平的同理心和自我意识以及低水平的压力是改善患者护理和治疗效果的核心要素。本研究的目的是评估约旦本科护理专业学生样本中的同理心、自我意识和感知压力的水平、关系及预测因素。
采用描述性横断面设计,通过基于网络的调查从330名学生中收集数据。
同理心、自我意识和感知压力的总平均分分别为75.75、40.17和55.65。在公立大学学习、平均绩点较高、无意离开护理专业且对护理专业满意的学生,同理心水平较高。收入水平较低、无意离开护理专业且对护理专业满意的学生,自我意识水平较高。女性学生、睡眠时间为6小时及以下、饮食不均衡或不锻炼、在公立大学学习、平均绩点较低、有意离开护理专业且对护理专业不满意的学生,感知压力水平较高。
护理专业学生报告的同理心水平充足,自我意识水平较低,感知压力水平中等。对护理专业满意且无意离开的学生,同理心、自我意识和感知压力水平较高。有必要开展干预项目,以提高学生的幸福感,尤其是同理心和自我意识,并降低他们的压力水平。
