Background: Nursing is a stressful career which can lead to negative consequences such as increased stress and reduced psychological well-being. So, nurturing capabilities such as resilience to deal with the consequences or preventing them can be helpful in this context. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of resilience training on the level of stress and psychological well-being of nurses.
Materials and methods: This study was a quasi-experimental survey consisting of pre- and post- test, and control group. The study was conducted on 220 nurses of a military hospital in Kerman. Among them, 30 nurses who gained low score regarding the Ryff Scales of Psychological Well-Being (1989) and high score in Perceived Stress Scale (by Sheldon Cohen; 1983) were selected and assigned into two experimental (n=15) and control (n=15) groups. The experimental group underwent resilience training program according to Henderson's theory for 8 sessions of 90 minutes. The control group received no intervention.
Results: The analysis showed that resilience training had a significant effect on stress level (F=4.23) and psychological well-being (F=5.27) of nurses.
Conclusion: The results of the current study showed the significant effect of cognitive-based trainings such as resilience, training on the subsidence of stress and improvement of psychological well-being of different strata in the society, especially people with stressful jobs.
