The Power of Self-efficacy-based Interventions in Fostering Caring Self-efficacy and Overcoming Job-related Stress and Perceived Stigma Among Psychiatric Nurses
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
People with high self-efficacy set goals to challenge and improve their task achievement rate; however, people with low self-efficacy tend to have fluctuation in their ways of thinking, which results in dampened spirits. Self-efficacy affects mental health. Therefore, psychiatric nurses' achievements that affect their self-efficacy may differ from those of general workers or other nurses. In such a situation, psychiatric nurses feel that uncertainty of care and an unmotivated appearance of the patient can lead to reduced self-efficacy. Consequently, nurses are likely to give up active involvement with patients who will not be leaving the hospital.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Caring Efficacy [3 months]
The Caring Efficacy Scale developed by Coates,3 is a 30-item, 6-point, Likert- type self-report scale (strongly disagree -3 to strongly agree +3), which assesses nurses' caring efficacy (i.e. confidence relating to ability to express a caring orientation and develop caring relationships with patients).
- Psychiatric Nurses Job Stress [3 months]
Psychiatric Nurses Job Stress Scale (PNJSS): was developed by Yada, (2011) and modified by Yada, (2015). It concerned with nurses' stressors in psychiatry departments by contributing to the self-care of psychiatric nurses and the line care of managerial staff. it containing 22 items.
- perceived stigma [3 months]
Perceived devaluation and discrimination scale (PDD): is a 12-item tool which measures the extent to which a person believes that most people will devalue or discriminate against someone with a mental illness. PDD was measured on a 4-point Likert scale with possible scores ranging from 1 to 4 agreement scale (1 = strongly disagree, 2 = disagree, 3 = agree, and 4 = strongly agree)
