A common psychological problem among nurses is depression, potentially affecting their well-being and job performance. It is vital to explore how to alleviate nurses' depressive symptoms.
The current research explored the mediating impact of basic psychological needs satisfaction on the link of gratitude with depressive symptoms.
The nurses in this study were from mainland China. A total of 724 subjects completed an online questionnaire, which included measures of depressive symptoms, basic psychological needs satisfaction and gratitude.
Our research found that gratitude was negatively linked to depressive symptoms. Furthermore, basic psychological needs satisfaction had a partial mediation effect on the link of gratitude with depressive symptoms after controlling for five demographic variables. These results suggest that gratitude may influence depressive symptoms via basic psychological needs satisfaction.
Our study found that basic psychological need satisfaction partially mediates the gratitude-depression relationship in nurses. The result means that hospital administrators and nurse leaders should design gratitude interventions to alleviate nurses' depressive symptoms. They also help nurses decrease depressive symptoms by creating an environment that meets their basic psychological needs.
First-degree relatives (FDRs) of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients have a higher risk of developing CRC than the general population. Ensuring that these at-risk populations receive colonoscopy screening is an effective strategy for reducing the increased risk, but the rates remain low. Colonoscopy screening behavior is influenced by factors at multiple levels. However, most previous reviews failed to review them and their interactions systematically.
To explore factors influencing FDRs' colonoscopy screening behavior according to the ecological model.
A mixed-method systematic review was performed in accordance with The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guideline. A comprehensive literature search was conducted using eight bibliographic databases (Medline, EMBASE, PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Scopus, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wan Fang Data, and China Biology Medicine) for the period from January 1995 to February 2023. The Joanna Briggs Institute critical appraisal checklists were applied to assess studies qualities. A convergent integrated approach was used for data synthesis and integration.
In total, 24 articles reporting on 23 studies were included. Only one study was rated low quality, and the other 22 studies were rated moderate to high quality. The findings revealed that certain factors and their interactions affected FDRs' colonoscopy screening behaviors according to the ecological model, including misconceptions about CRC and colonoscopy, concerns about the procedure, perceived susceptibility to developing CRC, health motivation, fear of CRC, fatalism, the recommendation from CRC patients, and recommendations from physicians, colonoscopy schedules, cancer taboo, health insurance and cost of colonoscopy.
Family communication-centered multilevel interventions are recommended to promote colonoscopy screening behavior among FDRs of CRC patients.
