- Abstract: Background: Due to active involvement with patients for COVID-19 treatments, nurses are susceptible to adverse psychological outcomes amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the distress, studies have suggested that nurses are able to experience positive changes (i.e. posttraumatic growth; PTG) during the pandemic. Research on other populations has also indicated that COVID-19-specific worries and work-related coping resources are associated with people's positive changes during the pandemic.
Objective: This study examined how socio-demographic characteristics, COVID-19-related worries, and work-related variables (satisfaction with work and workplace pandemic guidelines) were associated with PTG among nurses in Hong Kong.
Methods: Nurses ( N = 1510) working in hospitals and community settings were recruited through nursing associations in Hong Kong between 8 August 2020 and 22 September 2020. They were invited to complete a cross-sectional survey measuring their sociodemographic characteristics, COVID-19 worries, and satisfaction with work and workplace pandemic-control measures.
Results: Results from hierarchical regressions found that those working non-full-time ( β = -0.06), affiliating with a religion ( β = 0.24), having higher COVID-19-related worries and psychological distress ( βs ranging from 0.12-0.15), and having higher work satisfaction ( β = 0.14) were associated with higher PTG ( ps < .05). Moreover, a significant interaction between psychological distress and satisfaction with workplace pandemic control guidelines emerged in explaining PTG ( β = 0.08, p < .05), such that guideline satisfaction was only associated with higher PTG among those with higher distress ( β = 0.09, p = .03), but not those with lower distress ( β = -0.05, p > .05).
Conclusions: Nurses in Hong Kong did report positive changes amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Future studies could focus on the contributing factors of PTG to design for effective strategies to enhance resources for nurses to promote positive psychosocial outcomes.
Competing Interests: No potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).

Local Abstract: [Publisher, Spanish; Castilian] Antecedentes: Debido a la participación activa de pacientes en los tratamientos de COVID-19, las/os enfermeras son susceptibles a resultados psicológicos adversos en medio de la pandemia de COVID-19. A pesar de la angustia, los estudios han sugerido que las(os) enfermeras(os) pueden experimentar cambios positivos (es decir, crecimiento postraumático; CPT) durante la pandemia. Investigación en otras poblaciones también ha indicado que las preocupaciones específicas por COVID-19 y los recursos de afrontamiento relacionados con el trabajo están asociados a cambios positivos de las personas durante la pandemia. Objetivo: Este estudio examinó cómo las características sociodemográficas, las preocupaciones relacionadas a COVID-19 y las variables relacionadas con el trabajo (satisfacción con el trabajo y pautas pandémicas en el lugar de trabajo) se asociaron con el CPT entre las(os) enfermeras(os) de Hong Kong. Métodos: Las(os) enfermeras(os) ( N = 1510) que trabajan en hospitales y entornos comunitarios fueron reclutadas(os) a través de asociaciones de enfermería en Hong Kong entre el 8 de agosto del 2020 y el 22 de septiembre del 2020. Los participantes fueron invitados a completar una encuesta transversal que midió sus características sociodemográficas, preocupaciones sobre COVID-19 y satisfacción con el trabajo y las medidas de control de pandemias en el lugar de trabajo. Resultados: Los resultados de regresiones jerárquicas encontraron que aquellos que: no trabajaban a tiempo completo ( β = −0.06), se afiliaban a una religión ( β = 0.24), tenían mayores preocupaciones y angustia psicológica relacionadas por COVID-19 ( βs que oscilan entre 0.12–0.15) y tenían una mayor satisfacción laboral ( β = 0.14), se asociaron con CPT más alto ( ps < .05). Además, una interacción significativa entre la angustia psicológica y la satisfacción con las pautas de control de la pandemia en el lugar de trabajo, surgió al explicar el CPT ( β = 0.08, p < .05), de modo que la satisfacción de la guía sólo se asoció con un CPT más alto entre aquéllos con mayor angustia ( β = 0.09, p = .03), pero no en aquéllos con menor angustia ( β = −0.05, p > .05). Conclusiones: Las(os) enfermeras(os) en Hong Kong informaron cambios positivos en medio de la pandemia por COVID-19. Los estudios futuros podrían centrarse en los factores que contribuyen a la CPT para diseñar estrategias eficaces con el fin de mejorar los recursos de las(os) enfermeras(os) para promover resultados psicosociales positivos. [Publisher, Chinese] 背景: 鑑於需要經常接觸接受新型冠狀病毒治療的患者, 護士在疫情期間比起一般大眾更容易出現精神健康問題。即使如此, 不同學術研究皆提出護士們能夠在疫情中找到正面的經歷(亦稱創傷後成長 (Post-traumatic growth, PTG))。其他文獻也同樣指出人們對新型冠狀病毒的顧慮及工作有關的應對資源與他們創傷後成長有一定的關聯。 目的: 這份研究主要調查香港護士們的社會經濟特徵、新型冠狀病毒有關的顧慮、工作有關的因素 (包括對於工作的滿足感、工作場所的疫情應對指引的滿意程度) 與創傷後成長的關聯。 方法: 這份研究於2020年8月8日至9月22日進行。在香港的不同護理組織招募了1510正在醫院和社區環境工作的護士們, 邀請他們完成一份橫斷式問卷, 收集他們關於其社會經濟特徵、對新型冠狀病毒的顧慮、工作滿足感以及工作場所疫情應對措施的資料。 結果: 從層次迴歸分析中可得知, 非全職 ( β = −0.06)、持有宗教信仰 ( β = 0.24)、對於新型冠狀病毒有較高顧慮及精神困擾 ( βs 介乎 0.12–0.15)和有較高工作滿足感 ( β = 0.14) 的護士傾向感受到較高程度的創傷後成長 ( ps < .05)。數據也發現, 對於工作疫情防控指引的滿意程度與精神困擾對解釋創傷後成長有顯著交互作用 ( β = 0.08, p < .05)。只有在較高的精神困擾的護士當中, 工作疫情防控指引的滿意程度才會與創傷後成長有正向關聯 ( β = 0.09, p = .03), 而此現象在精神困擾較低的受訪者中 ( β = −0.05, p > .05)未有出現。 總結: 本研究指出香港本地護士在新型冠狀病毒疫情下也感受到創傷後成長。未來的研究可針對創傷後成長的主要因素為相關部門設計改善護士心理健康的措施。. - Publication Date: Date Created: 20220211 Date Completed: 20220216 Latest Revision: 20220216
