精神科護理人員的工作壓力、休閒因應策略、休閒參與和健康關係之研究
A Study of Association between Leisure Participation and Job Stress to the Psychiatric Nurses
摘要
精神科護理人員承受著特殊的工作壓力，而工作壓力會造成身心健康的重大影響已是不爭的事實。過去的研究缺乏休閒因應方面的探討，但研究顯示良好的調適方式對健康有正向的關聯性。本研究的目的係探討精神科護理人員之工作壓力、休閒因應策略、休閒參與及身心健康的現況，並探討四者間之關係。經由便利性抽樣，收集有效樣本共216份，運用結構方程模式（Structural Equation Modeling, SEM）驗證假設模式的配適度，研究結果顯示：工作壓力對於精神科護理人員的健康有顯著負向影響（徑路係數為-0.28）；休閒因應策略對休閒參與有正向顯著影響（徑路係數為0.30）；休閒參與對於身心健康有顯著正向影響（徑路係數為0.41）。結論：透過休閒因應對身心健康所產生的正面效應，應能緩衝因工作壓力對身心健康產生的負面影響。建議未來增加精神科護理人員的休閒參與以降低工作壓力對健康的衝擊。

Psychiatric nurses must have undertaken huge stress from work since they carried unusual workload and duties. However, we also know job stress can cause serious effects to our physical and mental health. Numerous studies have proved that good health is positively associated to good adaptation skills to workplace. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between stress and leisure focused on the psychiatric nurses whose job stress, leisure coping strategy, leisure participation, physical and mental health situation could result in their physical and mental health. Through convenience sampling, 216 valid samples were collected. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to test the model, and the finding indicated an acceptably fit to the proposed model. The results of the research, thus, can be concluded as follows: (1) Job stress would produce a negative influence to a psychiatric nurse's health (path coefficient -0.28). (2) Leisure coping strategy appeared to bring leisure participation a positive effect (path coefficient 0.30). (3) Leisure participation to a psychiatric nurse's health is significantly positive (path coefficient 0.41). The so-called positive effects coming from leisure participation and coping strategies can buffer the negative impacts caused by job stress on a psychiatric nurse's health. The study suggests that psychiatric nurses should increase their leisure participating frequency to reduce negative effects from occupational stress to their health.
