Abstract:
Objective:To explore the impact of adverse childhood experiences on psychosomatic symptoms and job burnout in the nursing population.Methods:Utilizing a multistage stratified cluster random sampling meth-od,1 661 nurses were selected.Through a 1∶2 propensity score matching approach,demographic and work-related characteristics were balanced between the positive and negative groups of adverse childhood experiences.Finally,880 cases were successfully matched(positive group:300 cases,negative group:580 cases).Linear regression was employed to explore the relationship between nurses'adverse childhood experiences and psychosomatic symptoms(anxiety,depression,physical symptoms),as well as job burnout.The average treatment effect among the treated(ATT)was calculated.Results:Linear regression results revealed a significant positive association between adverse childhood experiences and scores for anxiety symptoms,depression symptoms,physical symptoms,and job burnout(B=1.68,2.67,2.89,5.90;ATT=1.64,2.58,2.82,5.96,Ps＜0.001).However,there was no statistically signif-icant association with scores for a sense of inadequacy in individual achievements(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Nurses who have experienced childhood adverse experiences may exhibit more severe psychosomatic symptoms and job burnout compared to those who have not experienced such adversities during childhood.
