Abstract:
Objective:To explore the current situation of attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help among parents of premature infants, and to analyze its influencing factors.Methods:From January to September 2019, this study selected 121 parents of premature infants at two ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals of Zhejiang Province as subjects by convenience sampling. Those parents were investigated with the General Information Questionnaire, the Attitudes Toward Seeking Professional Psychological Help Scale-Short Form (ATSPPH-SF) , Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ) and the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) . A total of 121 questionnaires were sent out and 112 valid questionnaires were collected with 92.6% for the valid recovery rate.Results:Among 112 parents of premature infants, the total score of ATSPPH-SF was (18.11±3.76) . There were statistical differences in the total score of ATSPPH-SF among parents with different body weight of premature infants, parents' genders, places of residence and family monthly income ( P<0.05) . Among parents of premature infants, the total score of ATSPPH-SF had a positive correlation with positive coping style ( r=0.337, P<0.05) , and had negative correlations with scores of negative coping style and self-efficacy ( r=-0.319, -0.296, P<0.05) . Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the influencing factors of attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help among parents of premature infants included the body weight of premature infants, family monthly income, positive coping style and self-efficacy with statistical differences ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Nursing managers should pay attention to the attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help among parents of premature infants, especially in those with low levels of body weight of premature infants, family monthly income and self-efficacy. Nursing managers also should help them to establish the positive coping style so as to improve parents' acceptance of seeking professional psychological help.
