The Effectiveness of Modular Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (MCBT) on Nurses’ Rumination and Perceived Stress in the COVID-19 wards
Considering the importance of treating the global pandemic diseases and the important role of nurses and their psychological issues, this study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Modular Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (MCBT) on nurses' rumination and perceived stress in the COVID-19 wards.
Methods :
This is a semi-experimental study with a pre-test-post-test and follow-up with a Control group design. The study population consisted of all the nurses of Shahid Beheshti and Shahid Yahyanejhad hospitals in Babol city in 2021. Thirty nurses were included through convenience sampling method and randomly divided into two equal intervention and control groups. The Modular Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy of the experimental group was conducted in 10 sessions of 90 minutes each time. The questionnaires for both groups were completed in three stages, before the intervention, 1 day after the intervention and 4 weeks after the intervention. The Rumination Scale designed by Nolen-Hoeksema & Morrow (1991), and the Cohen’s Perceived Stress Scale (1983) were used for data collection. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 22 using descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and analysis of covariance at the 0.05 significance level.
The results showed that Modular Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy had a significant effect on rumination (F=33.491) and perceived stress (F=24.186) among nurses in the COVID-19 wards (p<0.01). Based on the results, the cognitive-behavioral therapy of a processing unit has been significantly effective in rumination (F=33.491) and perceptual stress (F=24.186) in nurses during the Covid-19 crisis (p<0.01).
According to the results of this study, Modular Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy had a positive effect on reducing rumination and perceived stress. Therefore, it is suggested that the health consultants and planners can extend the Modular Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy-based interventions on to increase the nurses’ awareness of perceived stress
