| description | Introduction: A growing body of literature recognizes the
importance of resilience in the nursing profession. Both
mindfulness and resilience aid in handling stress, stress increases
the risk of rumination and/or worry especially in females and they
are more empathetic than other healthcare students.
Aim: To identify correlates and predictors of the resilience
among nursing students.
Materials and Methods: This is a descriptive correlation study
and we have recruited 194 participants (1-4th year B.Sc Nursing)
from Government College of Nursing and NIMHANS College of
Nursing in Bangalore, India. The following instruments were
used to collect the data, Freiburg Mindfulness Inventory (FMI),
Toronto Empathy Questionnaire (TEQ), Perseverative Thinking
Questionnaire (PTQ) and Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale
(CD-RISC). Data was analysed using Pearson’s correlation test
and multiple regression analysis.
Results: Resilience is significantly correlated with mindfulness,
perseverative thinking and empathy in nursing students. Based
on regression analysis this model accounted for almost 33% of
variance in resilience. This result is of interest as mindfulness
alone explained 23% of the variance and unproductive Repeated
Negative Thinking (RNT) and RNT consuming mental capacity
predicted 8% and 2% respectively.
Conclusion: These results support the importance of resilience
and mindfulness in nursing students. Hence, resilience and/or
mindfulness enhancing interventions should be inculcated in
nursing education. |
