Stressorer och copingstrategier bland sjuksköterskor i europeiska länder : en litteraturstudieKuoppa, Maria, Nilsson, Lina January 2011 (has links)
Syftet var att genom en deskriptiv litteraturstudie identifiera troliga stressorer bland sjuksköterskor i deras yrkesverksamhet på sjukhus i Europeiska länder samt vilka copingstrategier de använder sig av för att hantera stressen. Vidare var syftet att undersöka vilken relevans undersökningsgruppen har i förhållande till valda artiklars syfte och frågeställningar. Ur de 14 granskade artiklarna utläste författarna tio olika grupper för stressorer vilka i storleksordning med den mest förekommande/vanligaste var ”Relationer”, därefter följer i fallande ordning; ”Kontroll”, ”Osäkerhet”, ”Arbetskrav/överbelastning”, ”Personliga förväntningar/tvetydighet”, ”Arbetsmiljö”, ”Emotionella påfrestningar”, ”Arbetsledning”, ”Tidspress” samt ”Missnöje”. Ur sex av de granskade artiklarna kunde författarna utläsa vilka copingstrategier som användes, vilka var olika typer av känslofokuserad- och problemfokuserad coping. Slutsatsen är att ”Relationer” visade sig vara den mest förekommande stressorn. Undvikande och distanserande coping visade sig inte fungera så bra, däremot visades socialt stöd och aktiv coping fungera väl. Vidare är detta ämnesområde väl känt och bevisat att det har en negativ påverkan inom sjuksköterskeyrket inte bara vad gäller sjuksköterskans hälsa och välmående utan påverkar även patienternas säkerhet och omvårdnadskvalitén i stort. / The aim was through a descriptive literature study identify possible stressors among working nurses in hospitals in European countries and which coping strategies they use to handle the stress. Further on the aim was to view the relevance of the participants in relation to the chosen articles aim and research questions. The authors identified ten groups of stressors from the 14 reviewed articles which were “Relations”, “Control”, “Insecurity”, “Working demands/overload”, “Personal expectations/ role ambiguity”, “Working environment”, “Emotional strain”, “Management”, “Time pressure” and “Dissatisfaction”. Six of the reviewed articles brought up different types of emotion- and problemfocused coping strategies. The authors concluded that “Relations” was the most common stressor. Avoiding and distancing strategies gave negative response contrary to social support and active coping which gave a positive effect. Stress is a well-known fact and proved not only to negatively affect nurses health, but also the patients safety and quality of the nursing care broadly.

Faktorer som påverkar sjuksköterskans arbetsrelaterade stress samt konsekvenserna av detta : En litteraturstudieJohansson, Yasmine, Marcusson, Zara January 2011 (has links)
Syfte: Syftet med litteraturstudien var att undersöka vilka faktorer som påverkar sjuksköterskans arbetsrelaterade stress samt att ta reda på vilka konsekvenser detta kan leda till. Metod: Examensarbetet utfördes som en litteraturstudie med 14 vetenskapliga artiklar. Datainsamling gjordes i databaserna PubMed och CINAHL. Huvudresultat: De faktorer som tydligast framkom genom artiklarnas resultat handlade om sjuksköterskornas psykiska och fysiska arbetsmiljö, vilket innefattar bland annat skiftarbete, relationer till arbetsgruppen, att bli utsatt för olika typer av hälso- och säkerhetsrisker samt att bemöta död och döende. Det framkom dessutom att besparingar och omstruktureringar var en av de mest frekvent nämnda stressfaktorerna för sjuksköterskor, liksom arbetsbelastning, krav och förväntningar. De konsekvenser som tydligast dök upp genom studiernas resultat handlade om hur sjuksköterskorna kunde drabbas både psykiskt och fysiskt, samt hur det kunde leda till konsekvenser gällande patientsäkerhetsrisker. Slutsats: Litteraturstudiens författare har utifrån resultatet kunnat dra slutsatsen av hur viktig en god arbetsmiljö är för att kunna erbjuda en trygg och säker vård. De faktorer som påverkar sjuksköterskans arbetsrelaterade stress leder inte endast till konsekvenser för hur sjuksköterskan kan drabbas både psykiskt och fysiskt, utan kan även leda till konsekvenser gällande patientsäkerhetsrisker.

Exploring job stress in the workplace from the perspective of the journalistsHuang, Kuo-jen 03 August 2010 (has links)
Abstract
Through depth interviews and qualitative research techniques with print media and
electronic media organizations, this study will discuss about job stressors of the employees
in News organizations. This study is also to explore the personal coping strategies of facing
work stress. And to the end will further unveil how media organizations assist journalists to
deal with work stress.
The result shows that the job stressors from media organizations contain three
categories: work factors, personal factors, and environment. It emphasizes how the variable
environments cause group members¡¦ physical and mental unrest and tension continuous
process. First one is ¡§work factors¡¨ and it contents include at least three elements. They are
the nature of work (time pressure, heavy workload, the work itself, working conditions,
fairness, and nervous), organizational factors (organizations¡¦ roles and structure, role
ambiguity, role conflict, and organizational climate and culture), and social relations at work
(work place relationships, lack of social support). The second category is "personal factors".
It includes individual itself, such as incentives, occupational health, and family, but career
development, for example, the chance of professional development. The last one is
"environment". This category includes economic and technological uncertainty and other
total 18 kinds¡¦ sources from three major sorts. Furthermore, the ¡§coping strategies¡¨ of facing
job pressure has five different types. Those types are classified as problem-centered,
emotion-centered, appraisal-centered, avoidance-centered, and religion-centered. They all
emphasize that organizations¡¦ members will use both the usable resources and experiences
along with self-awareness to determine how to solve or reduce their working pressures.
Moreover, journalists usually receive several kinds of assistance from media organizations to
deal with their work stresses. Usually, the employees will gain a long vacation after a period
of consecutive working days. They also receive social or emotional support through
communications, such as verbal encouragement, or informational support such as the class of
spiritual growth and development, etc.
Also, the research found which the interviewees using religion-centered strategies to
face their job stresses is a new discovery. This strategy has never been found in the reviewed
literatures, or previous relative studies. The researcher believes this discovery will help the
scholars engaging in the job stress-related follow-up studies as the basis for further research
III
and application.
In conclusion, based on the interviews, the researcher suggests that the media
organizations should extend the time of socialization procedure for freshmen. They also need
to provide appropriate equipments for their employees, and strengthen the social supports.
By this, the organizations will be able to prevent the journalists burning out, and improve
their working satisfaction in order to promote their commitment with the media
organizations.

Perceived and reported occupational stressors and coping strategies of selected community college business faculty members in TexasAllison, Genevieve J. 15 November 2004 (has links)
Two primary purposes of this study were to explore and to identify the sources of occupational stressors and coping strategies perceived and reported by selected Texas community college faculty members and to generate current demographics about these faculty members that would be useful in understanding such stress. Another purpose of this study was to measure and to compare for possible relationships among stressors, coping strategies, and selected demographic characteristics.
Participants who received a three-part survey questionnaire consisted of 90 community college faculty members who were members of either Texas Business and Technology Educators Association or the Accounting Section of the Texas Community College Teachers Association. Each participant was sent a survey questionnaire consisting of three sections. Sections I and II were used to gather data pertaining to the sources of occupational stressors and the coping strategies used by the participants. Section III was designed to request information concerning personal and professional demographic characteristics of each research participant. An analysis of the data was completed on all three sections.
The major findings for the study indicated the following:
1. Community business teachers experienced high levels of stress from issues involving reward and recognition, time constraints, college/departmental influence, professional identity, and student interaction.
2. Community college business faculty members responded by identifying additional stressors, such as teaching inadequately prepared students to experiencing too heavy a teaching load. To relieve these stressors, these faculty members use coping strategies, such as talking to other persons about problems to experiencing nature.
Based on the findings of this study, this researcher's recommendations include the following:
1. Community college districts should provide stress management training to their faculty, especially the new faculty, along with some clerical assistance for all faculty members, especially during the beginning and ending of a semester.
2. Community college administrators should encourage the establishment of wellness programs.
3. Community college faculty members should be encouraged to develop and to utilize effective coping strategies to reduce the negative effects of their stress.

An Investigation of Negative Appraisals Due to Negative Mood and How They Affect Satisfaction and Job PerformanceHudson, Cristina Keiko 01 January 2012 (has links)
Ample research has investigated the relationship between non-work and work domains finding consistent links between stressors in one and strains in the other. Additionally, there exist explanatory models of these associations such as psychological/physical sickness and related absences and loss or fear of losing personal resources. The current investigation combined variables from the spillover model and Affective Events Theory to test a new model with negative mood at its core. It hypothesized marital and financial stressors lead to negative mood at home which spills over into the work domain resulting in relatively more negative appraisals of work events. Negative mood at work is a likely outcome, which in turn causes subsequent decreases in organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) and job satisfaction and increases in counterproductive work behavior (CWB). Finally, the model proposed social support as a moderator buffering against the detriments of negative mood from home. Although structural equation modeling found the proposed model to be incorrect and to suffer from a large degree of misfit, examination of individual parameter estimates warranted the testing of two alternative models. Model 3 presented the best fit and most variance accounted for by omitting OCB and using direct paths from social support to all work variables (rather than the proposed moderating effect) and direct carryover of mood at home to mood at work. The majority of the paths tested in the model reasonably explained the data, although some variance remained unaccounted for. Results of model testing were also supported by significant correlations in the predicted direction between stressors and mood at home; mood at home and appraisals of work events; appraisals of work events and mood at work; and mood at work with job satisfaction and CWB. These results draw attention to the important role played by the individual's mood in the interplay between the work and non-work domains.

Darbo stresą sukeliantys veiksniai: Šiaulių miesto paslaugų įmonių darbuotojų nuomonė / The factors causing work stress: the opinion of Šiauliai city employees of service companiesBagočiūtė, Aida 02 September 2010 (has links)
Bakalauro baigiamajame darbe pateikiamas Šiaulių miesto finansine veikla užsiimančių organizacijų - antstolių kontorų ir bankų, darbuotojų nuomonių apie darbo stresą sukeliančius veiksnius, tyrimas. Tyrimo tikslas – ištirti darbuotojų nuomonę, apie darbo stresą sukeliančius veiksnius pasirinktose Šiaulių miesto finansinių paslaugų sektoriaus įmonėse. Klausimynas, pateiktas analizuojamų įmonių darbuotojams, buvo parengtas pagal M. Davis, E. R. Eshelman, M. Mckay (2007) stresorių grupių suskirstymą, kuriuo darbuotojai turėjo įvertinti savo būseną darbe ir įvertinti darbo stresorius. Apklausoje dalyvavo 109 respondentai, iš kurių 43 antstolių kontorų (Antstolės Eurikos Rulienės, Antstolės Vaivos Šimkienės, Antstolio Arturo Bložės, Antstolio Mariaus Jastromskio, Antstolio Ričardo Kudrausko, Antstolio Tomo Ubarto) ir 66 bankų (AB „Swedbank“, AB „Šiaulių bankas“, AB „DnB NORD“ ir AB „Snoras“) darbuotojai. Atlikto tyrimo rezultatai parodė, jog nei antstolių kontorų darbuotojai nei bankų darbuotojai nėra veikiami gausos stresorių, kurie galėtų įtakoti streso darbe atsiradimą. Tačiau tam tikrų signalų, į kuriuos būtina atsižvelgti – yra. Lyginant šias dvi finansines sritis, pastebėta, kad stresorių veikiančių darbuotojus ir galinčių įtakoti streso darbe atsiradimą yra daugiau antstolių kontorose nei bankuose.

[toliau žr. visą tekstą] / Bachelor's Final Work presents the research of two companies in Šiauliai city engaging in financial activity (bailiff companies and banks) employees' opinion on the factors that cause work stress. The aim of the research was to survey the opinion of the employees about the factors that cause stress in the selected companies of the financial sector in Šiauliai city. The questionnaire submitted to the employees was prepared according to the groups of stressors proposed by M. Davis, E. R. Eshelman, M. Mckay (2007), by which the employees had to evaluate their state at work and the stressors of work. There were 109 respondents involved in this survey, 43 employees from the offices of the bailiffs (Bailiff Eurika Rulienė, Bailiff Vaiva Šimkienė, Bailiff Artūras Bložė, Bailiff Marius Jastromskis, Bailiff Ričardas Kudrauskas, Bailiff Tomas Ubartas) and 66 employees from the banks of Šiauliai city (AB Swedbank, AB Šiaulių Bankas, AB DnB NORD and AB Snoras). The results of the research indicated that neither the employees of the bailiff offices nor the employees of the banks are affected by the stressors of abundance, which could cause the occurrence of work stress. However, the signals are present that have to be taken into account. When comparing these two financial companies, it was noticed that the stressors affecting the employees and potentially causing work stress are more prevalent in the bailiffs’ offices than in banks.

“What Don’t Kill Me Makes Me Stronger”: Black Women’s Narratives Concerning Their Low Rates of SuicideSpates, Kamesha S 16 December 2013 (has links)
The black-white suicide paradox explored in the current study explores black women's notions of suicide. In its most basic form, a fundamental question of this project is why have black women's suicide rates remained consistently low? This project seeks to explore specific internal and external adaptations that black women have come to rely on for long term survival. A great deal of attention will be given to black women's perspectives of suicide inside and outside of the black community.
This qualitative study by way of narratives provides insight into the entities that black women perceive to contribute to their virtually non-existent suicide rates. This approach is particularly appropriate for this study because black women's accounts on suicide will provide rich detailed data typically unseen in current suicide literature. In my work, I assume that black women's multifaceted oppressive conditions have compelled them to use subtle forms of resistance, i.e. coping mechanisms that act as protective barriers against suicide. This study also re-examines notions of social integration and religious beliefs in lessening chances of suicide among black women. Research findings were presented by way of four themes that emerged from the dominant narratives of twenty-two in-depth interviews. Respondents perceived family and communal obligations, faith based beliefs, a sense of long suffering, and declaration of strength to be the primary grounds for black women's low rates of suicide. Recurring themes were consistent despite the women's income or education levels. The study concludes that black women employ and perceive these strategies to be significant in coping or resisting trivial and significant stressors of life. Additionally, black women's perception of suicide as a weakness played a significant role in the way they defined themselves as well as the act. For literature on suicide, I engaged the works of Durkheim, Prudomme, Hendin, and Lester among others as a theoretical framework for this study.
