Abstract

This research was conducted cross-sectionally with the aim of determining the relationship between nurses' coping abilities through humor and their levels of psychological distress and burnout. A total of 187 nurses working at a university hospital were administered a Personal Information Form, Questionnaire of Occupational Humorous Coping (QOHC), Psychological Distress Scale (PDS), and Burnout Scale Short Form (BS-SF). The study found that 23% of the nurses experienced moderate psychological distress, while 27.3% experienced severe psychological distress, and 9.6% suffered from severe burnout, indicating that 27.3% of them needed expert support. A significantly positive relationship was observed between PDS scores and BS-SF scores. Regression analysis revealed that nurses' PDS scores predicted 56.7% of the variance in BS-SF scores. Nurses were found to predominantly use instrumental-social coping as their coping strategy. Interestingly, no significant relationship was found between the coping through humor scale and the other measures in this study. In light of these findings, further research is recommended to explore the factors that hinder nurses from using effective coping methods and to investigate the causes of burnout and psychological distress among nurses. It is also suggested that healthcare institutions should plan to provide psychological support for nurses.

Abstract

Bu araştırma, hemşirelerin mizah yoluyla başa çıkma yeteneklerinin, psikolojik sıkıntı seviyeleri ve tükenmişlik düzeyleri ile ilişkisini belirlemek amacıyla kesitsel olarak yapılmıştır. Araştırmada bir üniversite hastanesinde çalışan 187 hemşireye, Kişisel Bilgi Formu, İşyerinde Mizah Yoluyla ile Başa Çıkma Ölçeği (İMYBÇÖ), Psikolojik Sıkıntı Ölçeği (PSÖ) ve Tükenmişlik Ölçeği Kısa Formu (TÖ-KF) uygulanmıştır. Araştırmada hemşirelerin %23’ünün orta, % 27.3’ünün ise şiddetli düzeyde psikolojik sıkıntı yaşadığı ve %9.6’sının ciddi tükenmişlik yaşarken, %27.3’ünün uzman desteği alması gerektiği bulunmuştur. PSÖ puanı ile TÖKF puanları arasında pozitif yönde yüksek düzeyde anlamlı bir ilişki saptanmıştır. Regresyon analizi sonucunda hemşirelerin PSÖ puanlarının, TÖ-KF puanının %56.7’sini yordadığı bulunmuştur. Hemşirelerin baş etme yöntemi olarak araçsal sosyalleştirici başa çıkma yöntemini seçtikleri görülmektedir. Bu araştırmada mizah yoluyla baş etme ölçeği ile diğer ölçekler arasında herhangi bir ilişki bulunmamıştır. Bu sonuç doğrultusunda hemşirelerin tükenmişlik ve psikolojik sıkıntı yaşama nedenlerinin ve etkili baş etme yöntemlerinin hemşireler tarafından kullanılmasını engelleyen faktörlerle ilgili daha fazla araştırmanın yapılması önerilmektedir. Sağlık kurumlarının hemşirelere psikolojik destek sunmak için planlamalar yapması öngörülmektedir.
