ASSESSMENT OF CLINICAL STRESS IN MALE AND FEMALE NURSING STUDENTS, AS MEASURED ON THE FIRST AND LAST DAY OF THE OBSTETRICAL NURSING CLINIC COURSE

This study aimed to explore the clinical stress levels of male and female nursing students attending the first and last day of the delivery room and obstetrics wards. This cross-sectional study was conducted in December 2009 at a public university in Istanbul, Turkey. The study group included 108 nursing the third class students. Data were collected using a self-report questionnaire and a clinical stress questionnaire. Data were examined using percentages, Cronbach’s alpha coefficients, chi-square analysis, Mann-Whitney U test, paired T-tests, and the Wilcoxon test. Results: The majority of male students found the clinical course stressful because most of the patients were female. Half of the male students stated that there was gender bias against them from the patients and that this was a source of stress during the clinical course. Male and female nursing students’ stress levels on the first and last day of the delivery room and obstetrics wards were similar (p > 0.05). When stress levels from the first and last day were compared, a significant difference was observed between male and female students (p < 0.05) in the harm and benefit subscale scores. Conclusion: The obstetrical clinic course is a major source of stress for male students. Female students experience similar levels of stress. In addition, both male and female students had slightly increased stress levels at the end of the course than they had had at the beginning. Clinical instructors and other health professionals should provide suggestions to help students cope with stressors they may encounter during clinical courses.
