Paediatric oncology nurses experience role-related stress, but the tested stress-response model showed weak associations between stressors, coping abilities, and outcomes. The study suggests a missing element of role-related meaning in understanding nurse stress.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing
  • Psychology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Role-related stress is a significant concern for paediatric oncology nurses.
  • Understanding the relationship between stressors, coping mechanisms, and outcomes like resignation is crucial for healthcare administrators.
  • Previous research has not concurrently measured these components in paediatric oncology nurses.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To test a comprehensive stress-response sequence model in paediatric oncology nurses.
  • To concurrently measure stressors, reactions, mediators, and consequences of role-related stress.
  • To identify relationships among these components and potential explanatory variables.

Main Methods:

  • A quantitative study involving 126 paediatric oncology nurses.

  • Utilized six validated questionnaires: Stressor Scale for Paediatric Oncology Nurses, Perceived Stress Scale, Measure of Job Satisfaction, Organized Commitment Questionnaire, Group Cohesion Scale, and Intent to Leave.
  • Employed semantic content analysis for qualitative data and two-stage least squares for quantitative analysis.

    • Main Results:

    • The tested stress-response model components were only weakly associated.
    • The model's components could not significantly explain variations in each other.
    • Qualitative and quantitative data suggested a missing explanatory variable: role-related meaning.

    Conclusions:

    • The current stress-response model is insufficient for explaining the experiences of paediatric oncology nurses.
    • Role-related meaning appears to be a critical, yet unmeasured, factor influencing nurse stress and outcomes.
    • Further research should incorporate the concept of meaning in understanding and mitigating nurse stress in this population.
