Official title:
精神科受暴護理人員復原力與心理健康之成效－以生理回饋訓練為介入措施 The Effects of Resilience and Mental Health of Abused Psychiatric Nurses: An Intervention With Biofeedback Training
The investigators provide biofeedback training to assist the abused PW nurses to reduce WPV-related stress and achieve better resilience and mental health. The research project will assess the participants' physiological indices prior to the intervention as well as their levels of resilience and mental status.
This was a quasi-experimental study, structured questionnaires of Resilience Score, The
Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression (CES-D) and Occupational Stress Indicator-2 were
used in this study before and three months after intervention. A total of 112 abused
psychiatric nurses were randomly assigned to 3 groups. The biofeedback group (n=40) received
the biofeedback training and the self-training group received video relaxation training by
Line (n=44). The control group (n=28) did not receive any intervention.
Biofeedback training is an effective intervention to enhance abused PW nurses' resilience and
lower their depressive symptoms. Video relaxation self-training is also an effective way to
strengthen abused psychiatric nurses' resilience.
