OBJECTIVE: To explore the influence of clinical practice on mental health of male nursing college students,and to investigate the effects of psychological intervention. METHODS: Using the cluster sampling method,408 clinical practice male nursing students from 5 medical colleges in Jilin Province were randomly divided into intervention group and control group. The male nursing students were investigated with Chinese Perceived Stress Scale(CPSS),M to R sections of Cornell Medical Index(CMI) and Symptom Checklist 90(SCL-90). After the first questionnaire survey in the 9 weeks of clinical practice(before psychological intervention),male nursing students in intervention group received psychological intervention,while those in control group received no action. The investigation were then performed in the 20th(11 weeks of intervention) and 30 th weeks(21 weeks of intervention) of clinical practice. RESULTS: In the 11 and 21 weeks of intervention,the positive rates of CPSS,M-R and mental symptoms in intervention group were lower than those of timematched control group(P < 0. 01),and were significantly lower than those before intervention(P < 0. 01). Before intervention,the scores of CPSS,M-R and SCL-90 in two groups had no statistical significance(P > 0. 05). After the 11 and 21 weeks of intervention,the scores of CPSS,M-R and SCL-90 in intervention group were lower than those of control group(P < 0. 01). With the increasing time of intervention,the scores of CPSS and M-R in intervention group decreased(P < 0. 01). After the 11 and 21 weeks of intervention,the scores of SCL-90 in intervention group were lower than those before intervention(P < 0. 01). CONCLUSION: The results suggest that clinical practice is a stress for the mental health of male nursing college students. Psychological supporting system can be used to improve students' psychological health.
