This study examined the gender differences in contributing factors to resilience among university nursing students, controlling for the age and year of study.
Resilience is a behavioral pattern learned through personal and professional experiences. Resilience is crucial in nursing education and shapes clinical proficiency and care quality that may best target during college years, preparing nursing students for their future careers.
Cross-sectional design was used in the current study METHODS: Online surveys were used to collect the data from 623 nursing students. Validated instruments assessed resilience, decision fatigue, spiritual well-being, stress overload and spiritual and religious coping. Two regression models were generated to examine gender dynamics in predicting resilience.
The results showed that more than half of our sample has low resilience (n = 285, 45.7 %). The regression model significantly predicted more than 60 % of the variance in resilience among male nursing students (F(3, 234) = 123.87, p <.001), with religious well-being, negative spiritual and religious coping and stress overload being significant predictors in the model. The regression model predicting resilience among female nursing students showed that the model significantly predicted about half of the variance (F(4, 378) = 123.87, p <.001) with positive spiritual and religious coping, existential well-being, negative spiritual and religious coping and stress overload being significant contributors in the model.
Gender disparities echoed existing literature, advocating gender-sensitive strategies in promoting resilience. Early resilience nurturing through diverse modalities can foster a resilient nursing cohort adept at tackling multifaceted healthcare challenges.
本研究旨在探讨大学护理学生韧性的影响因素在性别上的差异，同时控制年龄和学习年限的因素。
韧性是通过个人和专业经验习得的行为模式。在护理教育中，韧性至关重要，它塑造了临床能力和护理质量，可以在大学期间有针对性地进行培养，为护理学生未来的职业生涯做好准备。
本研究采用横断面设计。
通过在线调查收集了 623 名护理学生的数据。使用验证工具评估了韧性、决策疲劳、精神健康、压力过载以及精神和宗教应对方式。生成了两个回归模型来检验性别因素对预测韧性的影响。
结果显示，我们的样本中有超过一半的人（n = 285，45.7%）韧性较低。回归模型显著预测了男性护理学生韧性的 60%以上的方差（F（3, 234）= 123.87，p <.001），其中宗教健康、消极的精神和宗教应对方式以及压力过载是模型中的显著预测因素。预测女性护理学生韧性的回归模型显示，该模型显著预测了约一半的方差（F（4, 378）= 123.87，p <.001），其中积极的精神和宗教应对方式、存在主义健康、消极的精神和宗教应对方式以及压力过载是模型中的重要贡献因素。
性别差异与现有文献一致，提倡在促进韧性方面采取性别敏感策略。通过多种方式早期培养韧性，可以培养出适应处理多方面医疗保健挑战的有韧性的护理队伍。
