BACKGROUND
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the psychological well-being of undergraduate nursing students in China. It is vital to have an understanding of their COVID-19 phobia and its predictors, especially during transitions in public health policy.
OBJECTIVE
This study aims to evaluate the situation and factors contributing to COVID-19 phobia among nursing students in Southwestern China.
METHODS
A cross-sectional study was conducted in December 2022 among nursing undergraduates in southwestern China. A convenience sample of 317 undergraduate nursing students from all grades at a medical university in Chengdu was assessed using the COVID-19 Phobia Scale (C19P).
RESULTS
The mean COVID-19 Phobia Scale (C19P-SC) score was 52.92 (± 13.02), indicating moderate levels of phobia, with gender, chronic disease, and perceived susceptibility being significant predictors. 11.67% of the students reported an infection history, while 81.39% knew an infected individual. Notably, fourth-year students showed significantly higher phobia level than first-year. Gender, chronic disease, perceived susceptibility, and risk significantly predicted COVID-19 phobia, explaining 16.4% of the variance Results of the thematic analysis revealed four main themes related to COVID-19 phobia and career choice among nursing undergraduates: concerns of infection risk, professional commitment, compromise and acceptance, and confronting phobia.
CONCLUSIONS
This study discovered a significant level of COVID-19 phobia among undergraduate nursing students and identified several risk factors, including being female, having chronic diseases, perceiving a high susceptibility to the virus, and perceiving a high level of harm after infection. These findings highlight the importance of educators focusing on the mental well-being of nursing students, particularly seniors, to reduce the impact of phobia on their social interactions and career aspirations. This will help ensure that they are well-prepared for their future roles in healthcare.
背景
新冠疫情对中国本科护理专业学生的心理健康产生了重大影响。了解他们对新冠的恐惧及其预测因素至关重要，尤其是在公共卫生政策转变期间。
目的
本研究旨在评估中国西南部护理专业学生对新冠恐惧的情况及影响因素。
方法
2022年12月对中国西南部的护理本科生进行了一项横断面研究。采用新冠恐惧量表（C19P）对成都一所医科大学各年级的317名本科护理专业学生进行了便利抽样评估。
结果
新冠恐惧量表（C19P-SC）的平均得分为52.92（±13.02），表明恐惧程度为中等，性别、慢性病和感知易感性是显著的预测因素。11.67%的学生报告有感染史，而81.39%的学生认识感染者。值得注意的是，四年级学生的恐惧水平明显高于一年级学生。性别、慢性病、感知易感性和风险显著预测了对新冠的恐惧，解释了16.4%的方差。主题分析结果揭示了与本科护理专业学生对新冠的恐惧和职业选择相关的四个主要主题：对感染风险的担忧、职业承诺、妥协与接受、直面恐惧。
结论
本研究发现本科护理专业学生中存在显著程度的新冠恐惧，并确定了几个风险因素，包括女性、患有慢性病、认为自己对病毒易感性高以及认为感染后危害大。这些发现凸显了教育工作者关注护理专业学生尤其是高年级学生心理健康的重要性，以减少恐惧对他们社交互动和职业抱负的影响。这将有助于确保他们为未来在医疗保健领域的角色做好充分准备。
