Journal Publication ResearchOnline@JCUAbstract
To evaluate the efficacy of MoodGYM Internet-delivered Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in the treatment of anxiety and depression among nurses. Methods A total of 180 nurses with anxiety or depression were randomly divided into three groups,60 in each group,and 2 months of intervention with MoodGYM and health education (once a week,30-45 minutes each time) in MoodGYM group and health education group, respectively. Another group was as a control group. Before and after intervention, Depression Anxiety Stress Scale 21 (DASS-21),Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ) and Subjective Happiness Scale (SHS) were used to evaluate psychological status. Results Compared with pre-intervention, the scores of anxiety in DASS-21 ((16. 76±7. 61) vs (9. 67±5. 78),t=21. 339,P<0. 01) and depression in DASS-21 ((13. 86±7. 60) vs (10. 91±7. 12),t=16. 716,P<0. 01) decreased,meanwhile job satisfaction in MSQ((65. 11±11. 12) vs (67. 97±11. 10),t= -16. 400,P<0. 01) and subjective well-being in SHS((17. 67±4. 59) vs (21. 83± 3. 53),t = - 20. 221,P< 0. 01) increased in post-intervention in the MoodGYM group. The scores of anxiety((15. 81±8. 24) vs (12. 45±7. 68),t= 17. 566,P<0. 01) and depression ((12. 44±8. 23) vs (12. 09±7. 95),t = 3. 934,P<0. 01) decreased, meanwhile job satisfaction ((67. 37±9. 76) vs (68. 91±9. 67),t= -4. 474,P<0. 01) and subjective well-being((17. 93±3. 80) vs (19. 85±3. 96),t=-14. 897,P<0. 01) increased in post-intervention in the health education group. After intervention, the effect of improving anxiety, depression, job satisfaction and subjective well-being in the MoodGYM group was more obvious than that in the health education group(P< 0. 01). Conclusion - MoodGYM intervention can relieve anxiety and depression of nurses,improve their job satisfaction and subjective well-being.
