Abstract：
BACKGROUND: Work-related stress and burnout remain common problems among employees, leading to impaired health and higher absenteeism. The use of mobile health apps to promote well-being has grown substantially; however, the impact of such apps on reducing stress and preventing burnout is limited.
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to assess the effectiveness of STAPP@Work, a mobile-based stress management intervention, on perceived stress, coping self-efficacy, and the level of burnout among mental health employees.
METHODS: The study used a single-case experimental design to examine the use of STAPP@Work among mental health employees without a known diagnosis of burnout (N=63). Participants used the app for 1 week per month repeatedly for a period of 6 months. Using a reversal design, the participants used the app 6 times to assess replicated immediate (1 week after use) and lasting (3 weeks after use) effects. The Perceived Stress Scale, the Coping Self-Efficacy Scale, and the Burnout Assessment Tool were used to measure the outcomes. Linear mixed models were used to analyze the data.
RESULTS: After 6 months of app use for 1 week per month, the participants showed a statistically significant decrease in perceived stress (b=-0.38, 95% CI -0.67 to -0.09; P=.01; Cohen d=0.50) and burnout symptoms (b=-0.31, 95% CI -0.51 to -0.12; P=.002; Cohen d=0.63) as well as a statistically significant improvement in problem-focused coping self-efficacy (b=0.42, 95% CI 0-0.85; P=.049; Cohen d=0.42). Long-term use of the app provided consistent reductions in burnout symptoms over time, including in the level of exhaustion and emotional impairment.
CONCLUSIONS: The use of an app-based stress management intervention has been shown to reduce burnout symptoms and enhance coping self-efficacy among mental health workers. Prevention of burnout and minimization of work-related stress are of utmost importance to protect employee health and reduce absenteeism.

摘要：
背景：与工作相关的压力和倦怠仍然是员工中常见的问题，导致健康受损和缺勤率上升。使用移动健康应用程序来促进福祉已经大幅增长，然而,这些应用程序对减轻压力和防止倦怠的影响是有限的。
目的：本研究旨在评估STAPP@Work的有效性，基于移动的压力管理干预，在感知到的压力上，心理健康员工应对自我效能感与职业倦怠水平的关系。
方法：该研究使用单案例实验设计来检查在没有已知倦怠诊断的心理健康员工中使用STAPP@Work的情况（n=63）。参与者每月重复使用该应用程序一周，为期六个月。使用反转设计，参与者共使用该应用6次,以评估复制的即时(使用后1周)和持续(使用后3周)效果.感知压力量表，使用应对自我效能量表和倦怠评估工具来衡量结果。线性混合模型用于分析数据。
结果：在每月使用应用程序六个月后，参与者在感知压力（b=-0.38，95％CI-0.67至-0.09；P=.01，d=0.50）和倦怠症状（b=-0.31，95％CI-0.51至-0.12；P=.002，d=0.63）方面表现出统计学上的显着下降。随着时间的推移，长期使用该应用程序可持续减少倦怠症状，包括疲惫和情绪障碍的程度。
结论：使用基于应用程序的压力管理干预措施已被证明可以减少精神卫生工作者的倦怠症状并增强应对自我效能。预防倦怠和最大限度地减少工作压力对保护员工健康和减少缺勤至关重要。
