背景:靈性照護是全人照護重要的一環,台灣有關探討靈性照護相關研究是欠缺的。 目的:瞭解護理人員人格特質、靈性照護態度與靈性照護能力之相關性。 方法:採橫斷式方便取樣調查,於台灣南部、東部8家醫院的239位精神科護理人員為研究對象。研究工具為「靈性照護態度量表」、「靈性照護能力量表」、「人格特質量表」與「基本屬性」四份結構式問卷。研究資料以SPSS 22.0統計軟體進行描述性統計及t檢定、單因子變異數分析、皮爾森積差相關、迴歸分析。 結果:靈性照護態度(58.76±7.37分)及靈性照護能力(44.94±9.04分)為中等程度。年資越久(beta=.16,p<.05)、研究所相對高中職/專科教育程度(beta=.18,p<.01)、有參與醫事人員培訓計畫靈性/關懷照護課程者(beta=.13,p<.05)、有提供靈性照護經驗者(beta=.26,p<.001)、外向性人格特質(beta=.14,p<.05)、開放性人格特質(beta =.32,p<.001)、嚴謹性人格特質(beta=.34,p<.001)、宜人性人格特質(beta=.35,p<.001)和靈性照護態度(beta=.67,p<.001)可分別預測靈性照護能力。 結論:護理人員的基本屬性、人格特質對靈性照護態度有正向影響關係,且基本屬性、 人格特質與靈性照護態度為靈性照護能力預測因子。 建議:可將靈性照護融入護理教育訓練,以提升照護品質,未來研究可拓展至各專業,探討靈性照護對照護品質影響。
Background: Spiritual care competency is an important component of holistic care. However, there is limited study on issues of spiritual care competency in Taiwan. Purpose: The objective of the study was to examine the relationships among personality traits, attitudes toward spiritual care, and spiritual care competency among psychiatric nurses. Method: A cross-sectional research with a survey was conducted. A total of 239 psychiatric nurses were recruited from seven hospitals in southern and eastern Taiwan. Instruments included the spiritual care attitudes scale, the spiritual care competency scale, the big five personality traits scale, and a personal profile. Analytic strategies were descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVAs, person correlations, and linear regression models. Results: Participants reported moderate levels of attitudes toward spiritual care (Mean±SD=58.76±7.37) and spiritual care competency(Mean±SD=44.94±9.04).The longer of work year (beta=.16, p<.05), master education (vs. senior high school/junior college education) (beta=.18, p <.01)、attending spiritual education (beta=.13, p<.05)、spiritual care experience (beta=.26, p <.001)、extraversion quiet personality (beta=.14, p <.05)、openness to experience personality traits (beta=.32, p<.001)、Conscientiousness personality traits (beta=.34, p<.001)、agreeableness personality traits (beta=.35, p<.001) and attitudes toward spiritual care (beta=.67, p<.001) were predictors of spiritual care competency, respectively. Conclusion: Personal attritions, personality traits, and attitudes towards spiritual care were predictors of spiritual care competency. Recommendations: Spiritual care modules should involve in education agenda that may enhance quality of spiritual care. Future study may explore the spiritual care competency and its influences to other populations.
