This study analyzes, in nurses, the influence of openness to experience and hardiness (assessed at baseline and one year after the COVID-19 pandemic respectively) on the development of optimism (assessed two years after the COVID-19 pandemic). Concerns about self-contagion were included as a moderating variable, given their relevance as a risk factor.
Nurses have been among the healthcare professionals most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Most previous studies have focused on the variables contributing to psychological symptoms, whilst the attention given to the variables adding to the well-being of these professionals has been much scarcer.
A prospective study was carried out.
This study was carried out using three data collection periods: Period 1 (From May to June 2020), Period 2 (From January 2021 to April 2021), and Period 3 (From April 2022 to July 2022), with the participation of 151 Spanish nurses, using online self-reporting questionnaires. The study followed the STROBE statement.
The results showed that the proposed model was statistically significant. There was a positive effect of openness to experience (year 2020) on hardiness assessed one year later (year 2021). Similarly, hardiness had a positive effect on optimism assessed another year on (year 2022).
Concerns about self-contagion behaved as a moderator in the relationship between openness to experience and hardiness (the relationship between openness and hardiness was statistically significant when contagion concern was higher). Relevance to clinical practice: In-depth understanding of the psychological processes that trigger psychological strengths (i.e. optimism) as a result of adverse situations (i.e. COVID-19 pandemic) is essential in promoting the mental health of healthcare professionals. Interventions targeting resilient personality traits and cognitive flexibility are key to this goal. No Patient or Public Contribution: The participants contributed exclusively to the collection of the sample.
本研究分析护士群体中，经验开放性和心理韧性（分别在新冠疫情大流行基线期和一年后进行评估）对乐观主义发展（在新冠疫情大流行两年后进行评估）的影响。鉴于自我感染担忧作为风险因素的相关性，将其纳入作为调节变量。
护士一直是受新冠疫情大流行影响最严重的医疗保健专业人员之一。此前大多数研究都集中在导致心理症状的变量上，而对有助于这些专业人员幸福感的变量关注则少得多。
进行了一项前瞻性研究。
本研究通过三个数据收集阶段开展：第1阶段（2020年5月至6月）、第2阶段（2021年1月至4月）和第3阶段（2022年4月至7月），有来自西班牙的151名护士参与，采用在线自我报告问卷。该研究遵循了STROBE声明。
结果表明所提出的模型具有统计学意义。2020年的经验开放性对一年后（2021年）评估的心理韧性有积极影响。同样，心理韧性对再一年后（2022年）评估的乐观主义有积极影响。
自我感染担忧在经验开放性与心理韧性的关系中起到调节作用（当感染担忧较高时，开放性与心理韧性之间的关系具有统计学意义）。与临床实践的相关性：深入理解在不利情况（即新冠疫情大流行）下引发心理优势（即乐观主义）的心理过程，对于促进医疗保健专业人员的心理健康至关重要。针对韧性人格特质和认知灵活性的干预措施是实现这一目标的关键。无患者或公众参与：参与者仅为样本收集做出了贡献。
