“…(14) The most prevalent strategies among nursing students in stressful situations were negative, as they were focused on the management of emotion rather than on problem solving. (15)(16)(17) Such exposure to constant stressors and the absence of effective coping strategies can lead to physiological alterations manifested in sleep patterns, reduced physical activity, and increased irritability, which reflect in individuals' psychological health and social relationships. In this sense, it is important that nursing programs seek to develop stress management abilities in students in order to improve their quality of life and prevent exhaustion, which in the long run, can lead to feelings of dissatisfaction and program abandonment.…”

“…In this sense, it is important that nursing programs seek to develop stress management abilities in students in order to improve their quality of life and prevent exhaustion, which in the long run, can lead to feelings of dissatisfaction and program abandonment. (14)(15)(16)(17) The current study raises the question about whether problem denial and escape persist as the most commonly used coping mechanisms by nursing professionals when dealing with the stressful situations inherent to their professional routine, as the knowledge and attitudes developed during professional education can possibly persist throughout nurses' professional lives.…”

Objective: To identify predictors of stress and coping strategies adopted by nursing students. Methods: A cross-sectional study conducted with 146 nursing students. The research instruments consisted of the Ways of Coping Questionnaire (WOC) and the Instrument for the Assessment of Stress in Nursing Students (ASNS). Data were analyzed using the Pearson's correlation coefficient and regression analysis. Results: The following predictors of stress were identified: professional education, acquired practical knowledge, and free time and leisure. Predictors of stress were associated with denial and escape-avoidance coping strategies. Conclusion: The most common strategies used by students in stressful events were considered negative and of poor effectiveness, as efforts were focused on emotions and not on the problem, compromising students' professional training process.

Os instrumentos de pesquisa foram: o inventário de estratégias de coping e a escala de avaliação de estresse. Para análise dos dados utilizaram-se correlação de Pearson e análise de regressão. Resultados: Identificaram-se como preditores do estresse a formação acadêmica, conhecimento prático adquirido, e tempo e lazer. Os preditores do estresse apresentaram associação com as estratégias de coping negação do problema e fuga da realidade. Conclusão: As estratégias mais utilizadas frente a eventos estressores foram consideras negativas e de baixa eficácia por centrarem seus esforços na emoção, e não no problema, comprometendo o processo de formação profissional.

“…Coping styles of nursing students in clinical training have been classified as active (positive reframing, planning, acceptance, and active coping) and avoidant (denial, alcohol/drug use, and behavioral disengagement) [3,12]. Other studies have also found that students use a moment-to-moment combination of coping strategies such as problem-solving and avoidance [13,14]. For example, avoidance behaviors helped students in coping with stressors related to patient care, the clinical environment, and teachers and nursing staff.…”

Background: This study aimed to identify the structure of stress factors during fundamental clinical training and the relationships between stress factors and coping behaviors in nursing students. Methods: The participants in this descriptive cross-sectional study were 158 first-year undergraduate nursing students from a university nursing department. A self-administered questionnaire study was conducted before and after fundamental clinical training. Results: Exploratory factor analysis on stressors related to clinical training revealed the following seven factors: (1) "relationships with teachers and clinical instructors, " (2) "lack of knowledge and skills, " (3) "reflecting on patient-care experiences, " (4) "relationships with patients, families, and healthcare staff, " (5) "conferences, " (6) "peer relationships, " and (7) "daily planning in clinical practice. " Students with higher scores for stress factor such as "relationships with teachers and clinical instructors" were less likely to engage in the coping behavior "changing mood. " Moreover, three stress factors, "lack of knowledge and skills, " "reflecting on patient-care experiences, " and "conferences, " negatively correlated with the coping behavior "seeking help to solve problems. " Conclusion: We identified seven stress factors in nursing students during fundamental clinical training. Faculty teachers and clinical instructors need to actively engage with students by providing adequate debriefing or guidance and having them reflect on their daily actions. Furthermore, orientations before clinical training should be redesigned to address conference procedures and reflection on patient care.

The purpose of this descriptive study was to investigate the effects of personality and coping behavior on clinical practice stress in nursing students which was experienced at clinical practice. The data were collected using questionnaire from the convenience sample of 88 nursing students. The data were collected from May 21 to 31, 2016. Data were analyzed with independent t-test, one way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression by using SPSS version 23.0. The mean score for clinical practice stress was 1.43±0.62, and the score for student domain (1.73±0.96) was the highest in clinical practice stress. Among the big five personality traits, neuroticism had positive correlation (r=.356, p=.001) with the clinical practice stress. Coping behavior (r=.285, p=.007) and passive coping behavior (r=.327, p=.002) also had positive correlation with the clinical practice stress in nursing students. The significant major predictors of clinical practice stress were neuroticism (β=.31) and passive coping behavior (β=.27). The explained variances for clinical practice stress was 18% in nursing students. Therefore, development of a program on enhancing personality and coping behavior to reduce clinical practice stress is needed.
