Background and Objectives: Evidence shows that throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, nurses suffered from emotional symptoms, yet in spite of this, few studies within “positive psychology” have analyzed emergence/promotion positive traits, such as hardiness. In this context, present study aimed to test a model regarding mediating role self-efficacy between anxiety experienced at beginning pandemic hardiness assessed six months later among critical care units (CCU) Spain. Materials Methods: An observational, descriptive, prospective longitudinal with two data collection periods: (1) 1 21 June 2020 (final phase state alarm declared Spain on 14 March) which socio-demographic occupational variables, (Depression, Anxiety Stress Scale, DASS-21), (General Self-Efficacy GSES) basal resilience (Resilience Scale-14, RS-14) were assessed, (2) follow-up 6 (January–March 2021) (Occupational Hardiness Questionnaire, OHQ) was evaluated. To analyze data, multivariate regressions performed using PROCESS macro (simple mediation, 4). Results: A total 131 Spanish CCUs, mean age 40.54 years (88.5% women) participated study. Moderate severe levels observed 19.1% sample. Significant correlations self-efficacy, (all p < 0.001). negative (p 0.001), = 0.027) 0.005). The indirect effect through significant (Effect (SE) −0.275 (0.100); LLCI −0.487, ULCI −0.097), contributing 28% variance, including 0.015), 0.784), gender 0.294) experience 0.652) covariates. mediation (non-significant anxiety-hardiness direct effect; Effect −0.053 (0.215), t 0.248, 0.804, −0.372, 0.479). Conclusions: results suggest CCU nurses, may contribute development resources self-efficacy.

Results: statistically significant (B 0.34, SE 0.07, t 5.15, p < 0.001, 95% CI [0.21, 0.47]), explanation 28% variance hopelessness, finding anxiety–hopelessness effect equally 0.19, 0.08, 2.46, 0.014, [0.04, 0.34]).

Several studies have indicated that the COVID-19 pandemic has had an impact on nurses' psychological and physical quality of life (QoL), as well their professional well-being. The literature also indicates perceived stress, resilience, social support, psychosocial work environment identification may be determinants these variables. However, no examined how influence QoL or well-being throughout pandemic. Thus, this study aimed to investigate Portuguese For longitudinal study, data were collected through self-administered questionnaires focused QoL, well-being, sociodemographic characteristics. collection spanned three distinct time points, from November 2021 June 2023. Data Analysis was conducted by utilizing random-intercept linear regression models. A total 555 responses analyzed at all measurement points (340 T0, 122 T1, 93 T2), compared those increased T2. Perceived stress support colleagues diminished T2 T0. During pandemic, participants who reported low high supervisors, colleagues, and/or job satisfaction tended report greater QoL. Throughout consistently negatively influenced QoL; moreover, resilience significant positive outcomes. These insights highlight need for targeted interventions reduce enhance foster among nurses, thus ultimately improving effectiveness in health care delivery, particularly during high-stress periods such pandemics. Future research should explore stressors protective factors

The aim current study is analyze evolution in Spanish HCWs from beginning until two years later, examining influence sociodemographic, occupational and variables. Methods: This was prospective design three data collection periods which assessed using Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), addition (i.e., social support, self-efficacy, resilience cognitive fusion) variables (n = 216) who were direct contact patients.

This has become even more relevant during COVID-19 pandemic, due to their link with use of masks, being female or working highly complex units. However, association different personality traits not healthcare workers (HCWs). The aim this study was assess prevalence and evolution headaches throughout pandemic Intensive Care Unit (ICU) nurses analyze sociodemographic, occupational variables as well other symptoms. (2) Methods: an observational, descriptive, longitudinal, prospective two periods data collection (at end containment phase six months thereafter). A non-probabilistic convenience sampling performed (n = 131). (3) Results: high percentage ICU reported first (71%) second (79.4%) time point; than half sample (58.8%) (chronic headache). Although a higher observed women at both assessment points, no significant gender-related relationships were for maintained across points. Regarding symptoms variables, positive found between anxiety (p 0.005), insomnia 0.030) emotional exhaustion 0.022), negative relationship hardiness 0.031).

Although previous research has found a high prevalence of anxiety during the COVID-19 pandemic among healthcare workers, longitudinal studies on post-pandemic and predictor variables have been less abundant. To examine evolution in workers from beginning until one half years later, analyzing influence occupational psychosocial variables, as well their possible predictors.
