“…In the questionnaire, the ‘primary’ parental carer was asked to recall a stressful event or situation encountered when caring for their son or daughter, during which they had experienced (a) unpleasant or upsetting feelings, and (b) feelings of being unable to do things to the level that they would have liked or expected. These are characteristics associated with particularly stressful life events (Clayton 1998; Dohrenwend 1998; Michael 1999). Given that parents may have encountered more than one event with these characteristics, they were asked to ‘only’ describe the stressful event which had ‘affected them the most’ in the 12 months preceding the study.…”

Background This study investigated the perceived benefits and negative impact associated with stressful events and chronic caregiving demands encountered by parents caring for young adults with an intellectual disability in the period of transition to adulthood. Methods A sample of 119 parents of young adults described these outcomes in a questionnaire, which were then analysed using qualitative content analysis. Results Although parents identified a range of negative outcomes, they also reported positive outcomes (perceived benefits) in relation to stressful events and chronic demands encountered in this period, including personal growth and enhanced personal resources. Conclusions The language of stress and burden often used to describe parents' experiences during the period of their son or daughter's transition to adulthood, needs to coexist with a language of fulfilment, growth and gain, as used by parents themselves. The implications of these findings, in relation to professional interaction with and support of parents in this period, are discussed.

“…Zira travmatik olayların çalışanlar ve örgütler bakımından maliyetleri yüksektir (Wilson, 1991). Travmatik olaydan kaynaklı; travma sonrası stres (Pai ve Lee,2011;Browne ve diğerleri, 2012;Magnavita ve diğerleri, 2015;Lacerte ve diğerleri, 2017), iş yaşamı ve genel yaşam memnuniyetinde azalma (Lacerte ve diğerleri, 2017), çalışanların iyi oluş halinde bozulma (Michael ve Jenkins, 2001b;Bishop ve diğerleri, 2006), işyeri işlevselliğinde azalma (Bishop ve diğerleri, 2006;Lacerte ve diğerleri, 2017), kronikleşen bıkkınlık (Magnavita ve diğerleri, 2015), işle ilgili araya giren ve stresli düşünceler, işten dolayı uyku zorlukları çekme, olaydan kaynaklı kabuslar görme, işe odaklanmada zorlanma (Horwitz, 2006), profesyonel benlik imajının zarar görmesi (Wahlberg ve diğerleri, 2019), depresif ruh hali yaşama (Ide, 2011), hiçbir şeyden zevk almama, anti-sosyal davranışlar, madde bağımlılığı, sinir (Sellbom ve Bagby, 2009), suçluluk (Browne ve diğerleri, 2012) ve güvensizlik duygularında artma (Bance ve diğerleri, 2014) ve lideri daha az destekleyici olarak değerlendirme (Birkeland ve diğerleri, 2017) gibi pek çok olumsuz durum ortaya çıkabilmektedir.…”

İşletmelerin amaçlarına ulaşmasında müşterilerin ihtiyaç ve isteklerinin anlaşılması ve karşılanmasına yönelik müşteri odaklı davranışlar önemli görülmektedir. Bununla beraber iş yerinde yaşanan travmatik olaylar, çalışanların üzerinde olumsuz psikolojik etkilere neden olabilmektedir. İşyerinde yaşanan travmaların çalışanların müşteri odaklı davranışlarında etkili olabileceği düşüncesiyle tasarlanan bu çalışmada, işyerinde yaşanan travmatik olay sonrası stresin müşteri odaklılık üzerindeki etkisi ve bu ilişkide lider üye etkileşiminin aracı rolü incelenmiştir. Kırıkkale ilinde faaliyet gösteren bir çağrı merkezinde gerçekleştirilen araştırmaya 207 çalışan katılmıştır. Araştırmada değişkenler arası ilişkilerin in celenmesinde regresyon analizinden faydalanılmıştır. Aracılık rolünün anlamlılık düzeyinin tespiti için Sobel T esti uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre işyerinde yaşanan travmatik olay sonrası stres, çalışanların müşteri odaklılığını olumsuz yönde etkilemektedir.Lider üye etkileşimi düzeyi ise müşteri odaklılığı olumlu şekilde etkilemektedir. Çalışma sonucunda lider üye etkileşiminin aracı etkisi sayesinde travmatik olayların müşteri odaklılık üzerindeki olumsuz etkisinde azalma tespit edilmiştir.

“…Of real concern was the large number of reported incidents that culminated in the verbal abuse of nursing staff, which was perpetrated by registrars and consultants (28.3%).The profound and often overt impact of such an experience will, in many cases lead to psychological distress, including diminished feelings of worthiness, self-doubt, and a significant amount of loss of respect for colleagues and peers (Michael & Jenkins, 2001). Reported feelings of inadequacy, incompetence and self-blame were described in relation to incidents which culminated in patient death.…”

“…Conversely, stress is a necessary element of human activity, something which can energize and motivate people towards a higher performance (Lazarus and Folkman, 1984).Workplace stress is an important health issue as long-term exposure can lead to psychological trauma (Keane et al, 1985;Farrington, 1997). Michael andJenkins (2000, 2001) research into the perioperative specialty attests that perioperative nurses are repeatedly exposed to stressful situations in the course of their working day.There is extensive literature to indicate that traumatic experiences are an existential and inescapable part of much of the perioperative nurse's work (Fox, 1999;Rohleder, 1993;Schwann, 1998;Shapiro, 1986;).The perioperative nurse is confronted daily with a variety of impelling scenarios, such as verbal abuse and conflict with peers and doctors, dealing with new technologies as well as shocking motor vehicle accidents (Micheal & Jenkins, 2001).…”

How do perioperative nurses cope with stress?

In recent years there has been broad discussion on the nature of stressors experienced by members of "high risk" occupations and professions, for instance nursing and emergency workers, whose role is to support others through traumatic scenarios (Lam et al, 1999:23). Perioperative nursing is a major specialization in nursing practice in which there is an increased risk of exposure to traumatic events (Schwann, 1998:645). Moreover, the cumulative nature of critical events, if left undealt with that will potentiate attrition among nurses in the perioperative environment (Michael and Jenkins, 2001:39). This triangulated study using self-administered questionaires focused on how theatre nurses coped with contextual stressors in the work milieu. A purposive sample of 46 registered and enrolled nurses who worked at a major Brisbane hospital were asked to describe a recent stressful workplace event, and rate it using Horowitz's (1993) Impact of Event Scale (IES). Results indicated that nurses with the least general theatre experience, demonstrated the highest negative impacts. 25% of females demonstrated avoidance tendencies when stressed, while 83% of males used problem-solving strategies. Reactions following trauma among the nurses were predominantly negative, and included feelings of frustration and selfdoubt.These findings support the eminent need for hospital organizations to take a more person-centered approach when dealing with workplace stress.
