Description
Summary:碩士 === 高雄醫學大學 === 護理學研究所 === 99 === The purposes of this study are to discuss the personality traits, physio-psychological impacts and emotional adjustments of nurses after experiencing patients’ violence. The objects of this study are nurses who work at four hospitals in Chaughua County. 194 valid questionnaires were completed. Collected data were analyzed by using descriptive statistical analysis, Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient, T-test, univariate analysis and stepwise regression analysis. The results of the study show that: Neurotic traits, physio-psychological impacts and emotional orientation are positively correlated (p < .01 or p < .05). Psychotic traits, physio-psychological impacts and emotional orientation are positively correlated (p < .01 or p < .05). Years of work experience and neurotic traits are positively correlated (p < .01). Compared to objects who haven’t been married, objects who have been married have less response to physio-psychological response scale and emotional orientation (p < .05). Objects who are willing to continuing nursing career have less have less response to physio-psychological response scale and emotional orientation (p < .05). Working units of nursing professionals who have experienced patients’ violence have significant differences on problem-solving orientation (p < .05). Nursing professionals who work at out-patient department obtained high score. Different types of hospitals where nursing professionals work have significant differences on physio-psychological response scale and emotional orientation (p < .01). Nursing professionals who work at regional hospitals obtained high score. Neurotic traits, ages, working units are the key factors that impact the emotion of nursing professionals. Total variance of emotional orientation is 13.4%. It is suggested that personality traits could be added as a consideration for selecting new nursing staff. After nursing professionals experienced patients’ violence, they become the high-risk groups of having physio-psychological and emotional problems. Therefore, specific counseling programs should be developed for nursing professionals who have experienced patients’ violence.
