Abstract

Aims

This study examined the relationship between the experience of violence, social support, nursing practice environment, and mental health among South Korean mental health nurses.

Methods

Structured questionnaires were distributed to participants who worked in twelve mental health hospitals, each with at least 200 beds, in South Korea. We analyzed 243 questionnaires and used AMOS 25.0 to explore the relationships between the constructs.

Results

The total and indirect effects of the experience of violence and of social support on mental health were significant. The effects of burnout and of the nursing practice environment on mental health were positively significant. Burnout revealed a mediating association with the relationship between the experience of violence, social support, and mental health.

Conclusion

The study confirmed that the experience of violence negatively affects burnout among mental health nurses, while social support relieves burnout and strengthens mental health.

Implementation

Our research model shows that the experience of violence could affect burnout and mental health among mental health nurses. Therefore, nursing administrators should develop violence prevention policies and manuals for coping with the violence that can frequently occur in psychiatric wards.

暴力经历、社会支持、护理实践环境和职业倦怠对韩国心理健康护士心理健康的影响：结构方程模型分析

目的本研究探讨了韩国心理健康护士的暴力经历、社会支持、护理实践环境与心理健康之间的关系。方法我们向在韩国 12 家心理健康医院（每家医院至少拥有 200 张床位）工作的参与者发放了结构化问卷。我们对 243 份问卷进行了分析，并使用 AMOS 25.0 探索了各构念之间的关系。结果暴力经历和社会支持对心理健康的总影响和间接影响均显著。职业倦怠和护理实践环境对心理健康的影响呈正相关。我们的研究模型表明，暴力经历会影响心理健康护士的职业倦怠和心理健康。因此，护理管理者应制定暴力预防政策和手册，以应对精神科病房经常发生的暴力事件。
