METHODS: The study employed a pretest-post-test randomised experimental design. Fifty care workers scoring 27 or above on emotional exhaustion and 10 or above on depersonalisation subscales of the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) were randomly assigned to the intervention or control group for 8 weeks. The study utilised the World Health Organization (WHO) Group Interpersonal Therapy for Depression manual as a guide. The post-test was conducted immediately after the last session of the intervention.
RESULTS: In comparing pre- and post-test scores of the intervention group, a statistically significant difference was found in overall burnout scores (pretest M = 74.10, post-test M = 63.08, p < 0.001; d = 1.12). Additionally, emotional exhaustion scores (pretest M = 30.99, post-test M = 24.89, p < 0.001; d = 1.11) and depersonalisation scores (pretest M = 12.76, post-test M = 8.53, p < 0.001; d = 1.69) exhibited significant differences. However, no significant difference was observed in personal accomplishment scores (p > 0.05). The control group had no significant differences concerning the overall burnout scores and all three subscales (p > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: The IPT-G used in this study effectively decreased burnout among care workers in a long-term care facility in Türkiye. In addition, the participants reported high satisfaction with the IPT-G program.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results support the usefulness of the IPT-G program for care workers in long-term care facilities considering adding it to their occupational health management. This research aimed to determine whether IPT-G successfully decreased care worker burnout. Future research focusing on various types of healthcare workers in long-term care facilities and examining factors such as burnout, job satisfaction and self-efficacy could provide more information on the effects of IPT-G.
方法:本研究采用前测-后测随机实验设计。将50名护理人员在情绪疲惫方面得分27或以上,在Maslach倦怠量表(MBI)的人格解体分量表上得分10或以上,随机分配到干预组或对照组,为期8周。该研究利用世界卫生组织(WHO)小组抑郁症人际治疗手册作为指南。在最后一次干预之后立即进行后测试。
结果:在比较干预组的测试前和测试后得分时,总体倦怠评分差异有统计学意义(前测M=74.10,后测M=63.08,p<0.001;d=1.12).此外,情绪耗竭得分(前测M=30.99,后测M=24.89,p<0.001;d=1.11)和去人格化得分(前测M=12.76,后测M=8.53,p<0.001;d=1.69)表现出显著差异。然而,个人成就感得分差异无统计学意义(p>0.05)。对照组的总体倦怠评分和所有三个分量表没有显着差异(p>0.05)。
结论:本研究中使用的IPT-G有效降低了Türkiye长期护理机构中护理人员的倦怠。此外,参与者报告对IPT-G项目的满意度较高.
结论:我们的结果支持IPT-G计划对长期护理机构护理人员的有用性,考虑将其添加到他们的职业健康管理中。这项研究旨在确定IPT-G是否成功降低护理人员的倦怠。未来的研究重点是长期护理机构中各种类型的医护人员,并检查诸如倦怠等因素,工作满意度和自我效能感可以为IPT-G的影响提供更多信息。
