The use of digital information and communication technologies (ICT) can be accompanied by increased technostress for nursing staff, which in turn can be associated with health consequences. In addition, the use-related constant accessibility through ICT can have a negative impact on health-related recovery and regeneration phases. Health-promoting behaviors of supervisors can influence health complaints and conflicts between employees' work and private lives. The present study investigates whether there is a corresponding relationship between digital stressors (technostressors) as well as health-oriented leadership and health outcomes among nurses.
In a quantitative online survey, hospital nursing staff (n = 243) was asked about techno-invasion, social environment, emotional exhaustion, work-privacy conflict and on the supervisors' health-oriented staff-care dimensions awareness, value of health and health-oriented leadership behavior (HoL: awareness, value of health and health behavior). The associations of technostress, HoL and health outcomes were tested using regression analyses and performing a correlation.
Significant positive associations between techno-invasion and health outcomes had been found. Social environment was not (positively) significantly related to either emotional exhaustion or work-privacy conflict. Health-oriented leadership moderated the association between social environment and work-privacy conflict.
The results confirm the relevance of measures to reduce technostress and the importance of health-oriented leadership as a health-promoting resource. For practice, offers should be implemented for a balanced work and personal life of the nursing staff as well as establishing competence trainings for supervisors to learn and implement health-promoting behaviors. When technology use can't be reduced, options could be created to ensure that nurses' work and private lives become more balanced. These could represent mindfulness practices.
数字信息与通信技术(ICT)的使用可能会给护理人员带来更大的技术压力,进而可能导致健康问题。此外,通过ICT实现的与使用相关的随时可及性可能会对与健康相关的恢复和再生阶段产生负面影响。上级的健康促进行为会影响健康投诉以及员工工作与私人生活之间的冲突。本研究调查护士群体中数字压力源(技术压力源)、健康导向型领导与健康结果之间是否存在相应关系。
在一项定量在线调查中,询问了医院护理人员(n = 243)有关技术侵入、社会环境、情绪耗竭、工作 - 隐私冲突以及上级对员工健康关怀维度的认知、健康价值观和健康导向型领导行为(HoL:健康认知、健康价值观和健康行为)。使用回归分析和相关性分析来检验技术压力、HoL与健康结果之间的关联。
发现技术侵入与健康结果之间存在显著的正相关。社会环境与情绪耗竭或工作 - 隐私冲突均无(正)显著相关性。健康导向型领导调节了社会环境与工作 - 隐私冲突之间的关联。
研究结果证实了减少技术压力措施的相关性以及健康导向型领导作为健康促进资源的重要性。在实践中,应提供相关措施以平衡护理人员的工作和个人生活,并为上级开展能力培训,使其学习并实施健康促进行为。当无法减少技术使用时,可以创造一些选项来确保护士的工作和私人生活更加平衡。这些选项可以是正念练习。
