Abstract

Background: The mental health of nursing students directly affects their future performance, quality of patient care, and personal development. Therefore, an in-depth understanding of research in this area can assist in implementing effective measures to improve the mental health of nursing students.

Aim: This study used bibliometric analyses to identify and analyze articles, authors, journals, and research institutes investigating nursing students’ mental health in terms of thematic structure and topic evolution, aiming to provide direction and guidance for future research.

Methods: In this retrospective bibliometric analysis, data were downloaded from the Web of Science Core Collection on August 15, 2024. Subsequently, CiteSpace software was employed to analyze the annual number of publications and citations, explore relationships between authors, institutions, countries, and keywords, and summarize research hotspots and frontiers in the field of nursing students’ mental health.

Results: Articles published from database inception to August 15, 2024, were screened, leading to the retrieval of 3803 relevant articles. The United States of America was the leading country in terms of research output on the mental health of nursing students, with 982 (25.79%) published articles, while the United States Department of Health and Human Services provided the most funding. Furthermore, Happell, B was the most productive author in this field, with 80 published papers. Lastly, Nurse Education Today was the most prolific journal in nursing education.

Conclusion: The main recent research trends include the psychological profile of nursing students, intervention strategies for improving the mental health of nursing students, and the influence of educational methods, clinical experience, and humanistic care on the mental health of nursing students. These trends imply that researchers should develop targeted training programs, apply information technology, and implement personalized teaching to enhance the psychological resilience of the nursing student population. Moreover, higher education institutions should provide nursing students with more comprehensive and effective mental health support by maintaining mental health files, strengthening mental health education, providing psychological counseling services, and establishing social support systems.

护生心理健康:基于CiteSpace可视化分析的文献计量学综述
背景:护生的心理健康状况直接影响其未来的工作表现、护理质量和个人发展。因此,深入了解这一领域的研究有助于实施有效的措施来改善护生的心理健康。目的:本研究采用文献计量分析方法,从专题结构和主题演变的角度,对调查护生心理健康的文章、作者、期刊和研究机构进行识别和分析,旨在为今后的研究提供方向和指导。方法:采用回顾性文献计量学分析,数据下载自Web of Science Core Collection,时间为2024年8月15日。随后,运用CiteSpace软件对年度出版物数量和被引情况进行分析,探究作者、机构、国家、关键词之间的关系,总结护生心理健康领域的研究热点和前沿。结果:筛选了自建库至2024年8月15日发表的文章,共检索到相关文章3803篇。在护理学生心理健康方面的研究产出方面,美国是领先的国家,发表了982篇(25.79%)文章,而美国卫生与公众服务部提供了最多的资金。此外,Happell, B是该领域最多产的作者,发表了80篇论文。最后,《今日护士教育》是护理教育领域最多产的杂志。结论:护生心理状况、改善护生心理健康的干预策略、教育方法、临床经验、人文关怀对护生心理健康的影响是当前护生心理健康研究的主要方向。这些趋势表明,研究人员应该制定有针对性的培训计划,应用信息技术,实施个性化教学,以提高护理学生群体的心理弹性。高校应通过建立心理健康档案、加强心理健康教育、提供心理咨询服务、建立社会支持体系等方式,为护生提供更全面有效的心理健康支持。
