| description | Introduction: Emotional intelligence is a social skill that<br />controls stress and affects one’s ability to cope with the demands<br />and environmental pressures; it so can improve professional<br />competence in health care providers such as nursing students.<br />Training on emotional intelligence increases the mental health<br />and influences the mutual relationships, stress, depression and<br />aggression. This study aimed to determine the effect of emotional<br />intelligence skills training program on the stress and academic<br />success of nursing students in a higher education health complex.<br />Methods: This study is a quasi-experimental study with an<br />educational intervention. The participants included 100 students<br />of nursing selected by stratified random sampling from both<br />genders. They were randomly categorized into two intervention<br />and control groups including 50 subjects, respectively. We used<br />Meyer and Salvia model in Emotional Intelligence training in the<br />intervention group. During the training sessions in the intervention<br />group, the control group did not receive any intervention. Academic<br />stress and professional competence in both groups were measured<br />before and two weeks after the experiment. SPSS version 21 was<br />used to analyze the data, using Paired t-test, independent t-test,<br />Wilcoxon, Mann-Whitney and Chi-Square tests.<br /> Results: The mean age of the participants was 20±2.14 years<br />old. According to the results, the mean difference of the changes<br />in the professional competence (p<0.001), total academic stress<br />(p<0.001), and the four areas of academic stress such as emotional<br />response (p<0.001), physical response (p<0.001) and physiological<br />response (p<0.001) were significant. The intervention group, as<br />compared with the control group, showed no significant effect on<br />the other factors of academic stress such as frustration, conflict,<br />academic pressure, changes and self-imposed stress.<br />Conclusion: The education of emotional intelligence components<br />can improve the efficiency of nursing care services and professional<br />competence due to deceased stress. |
