Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the feasibility and efficiency of three-line relaxation-based group intervention on mental stress management among nursing students.
Methods:A total of 224 nursing students were randomly divided into the intervention group in which three-line relaxation training for 12 weeks were delivered together with psychological health education (PHE), and the control group which only delivered PHE. The SelfRating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and the Self Rating Depression Scale (SDS) were used before and after intervention. T-test was used to compare inter-group difference.
Results:After 4-week intervention, there’s no significant difference in the score of SAS and SDS between the two groups(P>0.05). After 12-week intervention, average SAS and SDS score of intervention group was significantly decreased compared with before intervention (both P<0.01). After 12-week intervention, no significant changes were observed in the score of SAS and SDS in the control group (both P>0.05). After 4-and 12-week intervention, average score in SAS and SDS of intervention group was significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).
Conclusion:Three-line relaxation is effective in relieving mental stress of nursing students.
