ABSTRACT

AIM:

This study aimed to determine factors associated with coping strategies used by nursing staff during the COVID-19 pandemic in Iran.

DESIGN:

Cross-sectional study.

METHODS:

A convenience sample of 365 nurses were selected from referral hospitals for COVID-19 patients in Tabriz, Iran between February 2022 and July 2022. An online self-administered questionnaire was distributed through social media platforms, including WhatsApp and Instagram. The survey package included a modified Brief COPE scale, socio-demographic and work-related questions, and a measure of psychological distress. Multiple regression analysis examined associated factors with coping strategies in SPSS. The study adhered to the STROBE guidelines for reporting.

RESULTS:

The mean age of participants was 31.2 (7.3) years old. Of the 365 participants, 209 (58.9%) used maladaptive coping strategies, and 214 (57.6%) reported experiencing psychological distress. Psychological distress was the strongest predictor of maladaptive coping strategies (ß = 4.473, p < 0.001). Female nurses (ß = 3.259, p < 0.05), nurses who were under 35 years of age (ß = 3.214, p < 0.05), nurses with fewer than ten years of experience (ß = 2.416, p < 0.001), those who worked in COVID-19 ICUs (ß = 4.321, p < 0.001), floor nurses (ß = 2.344, p < 0.001), and those who worked two or more years in COVID-19 settings (ß = 3.293, p < 0.001) had higher mean scores in maladaptive coping strategies. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION No patient or public contributions.
