Abstract

  Background and Objective: Parkinson disease (PD) is a common neuro degenerative disorder, which is chronic and progressive. The specialized PD nurse is needed to give better care services. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of nursing roles on the nurses′ ­knowledge and attitude toward taking care of patients suffering from Parkinson.

  Material and Methods: In this quasi-experimental study conducted in 2009, 102 nurses of Kerman University of Medical Sciences were selected and divided into two groups (case and control).The instrument was a researcher made questionnaire. After pretest, the educational program including lecture, group discussion and pamphlet was performed and after three weeks, Post test was given. Using Software SPSS-­15, the data was analyzed by applying descriptive and inferential statistics.

  Results: There is a significant difference (P<0.000) between the nurses' general knowledge ­(7.51± 3.17) and general attitude (8.35±­5.22)­.­ The general knowledge and attitude of control groups are not different between first and second time of recording. General comparison of the effect of training indicates that the difference between intervention and control groups are statistically significant in the first and second time of recordings(p<0.000).

Conclusion: The education programs are effective on nurses′ knowledge and attitude toward Parkinson disorder and the roles such as medical care, Education and advocacy. Hence, the educational interventions related to nursing roles in caring Parkinson patients are necessary.

Abstract

Background: Personality traits significantly influence professional and occupational behaviors, allowing for the prediction of specific actions in various work-related contexts. Additionally, these traits play a crucial role in the development of self-control. This study aimed to evaluate personality traits and their association with self-control among nurses working in the emergency departments (EDs) of hospitals.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Kermanshah, Western Iran, in 2022. The study sample comprised 154 nurses working in the EDs, selected using convenience sampling. Data were collected using the NEO Five-Factor Inventory and the Nikmanesh Self-Control Questionnaire. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 25, employing descriptive statistics, independent t-tests, ANOVA for group comparisons, and Pearson’s correlation, with a significance level set at 0.05.
Results: The mean age of the participants was 33.5±6.2 years (range: 23 to 54). The findings showed that there was a significant correlation between the components of personality traits and restraint in nurses (P<0.001). Personality traits can explain restraint in nurses working in EDs. All subscales of restraint were also significantly correlated with negative personality traits, except impulsivity and risk-taking.
Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that personality traits significantly influence the self-control of nurses. Notably, stronger personality traits in all dimensions, except neuroticism, are inversely related to the self-control scores of nurses. Consequently, measures should be taken to improve the performance and job quality of nurses.
