ABSTRACT
BackgroundSleep disorder can adversely affect human physical and mental health， with important implications for socioeconomic development. And higher vocational college students are subject to various pressures and stimuli exerted by academic studies， job seeking and family socioeconomic status， which may contribute to the onset insomnia symptom or sleep disorder. ObjectiveTo discuss the sleep status and influencing factors among higher vocational college students， and to provide references for improving their sleep status. MethodsIn January and February， 2022， a stratified random sampling method was utilized to enroll 3 300 students from five higher vocational colleges in Wenjiang district of Chengdu city. All the participants were assessed using Insomnia Severity Index （ISI）， Patient Health Questionnaire Depression Scale-9 item （PHQ-9） and Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 （GAD-7）. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to test the correlation of ISI with PHQ-9 and GAD-7 scores， and the Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the influencing factors of insomnia symptom in higher vocational college students. ResultInsomnia symptom was detected in 81.90% （2 497 / 3 300） of higher vocational college students. The detection rate of insomnia symptom among vocational college students yielded statistical difference in terms of gender， family socioeconomic status， being an only child or having siblings， degree of psychological pressure exerted by academic studies or job seeking， amount of hours spent on Internet per day， frequency of physical exercise， and the presence or absence of anxiety symptom and depression symptom （χ2=21.032， 22.172， 8.983， 75.939， 36.781， 32.350， 54.512， 86.561， P<0.01 or 0.05）. Among higher vocational college students， ISI score was positively correlated with GAD-7 and PHQ-9 scores （r=0.620， 0.714， P<0.01）， and GAD-7 score was positively correlated with PHQ-9 score （r=0.824， P<0.01）. Gender， family socioeconomic status， degree of psychological pressure exerted by academic studies or job seeking， amount of hours spent on Internet per day， frequency of physical exercise， and the presence or absence of anxiety symptom and depression symptom were effective factors in predicting the insomnia symptom in higher vocational college students （P<0.01 or 0.05）. ConclusionFemale gender， average and below average family socioeconomic status， moderate-to-severe degree of psychological pressure exerted by academic studies or job seeking， spending 2~5 h， 5~7 h or >7 h on Internet per day， inadequate physical exercise and presence of depressive symptom are the risk factors for insomnia symptom in higher vocational college students.［Funded by Sichuan Provincial Primary Health Development Research Center in 2022， North Sichuan Medical College （number， SWFZ22-C-89）］
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the application of step-by-step mentorship combined with individualized assessment in practical nursing skill training in higher vocational colleges.Methods:A total of 219 nursing students of Class 2020 were selected from a higher vocational college; they were randomly divided into control group (107 students) and experimental group (112 students), both of which were offered nursing training courses in the first semester. The control group was offered conventional teaching, while the experimental group was offered step-by-step mentorship combined with individualized assessment. The two groups were compared for post-training assessment scores of theoretical knowledge and practical skills and pre-training and post-training comprehensive nursing ability as well as their recognition of the teaching methods after training. The t-test and chi-square test were performed using SPSS 22.0. Results:The post-training assessment scores of theoretical knowledge and practical skills were significantly higher in both subitem score [(89.68±3.58) vs. (82.56±3.35)] and total score [(91.75±3.01) vs. (85.36±2.58)] in the experimental group than in the control group ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in pre-training comprehensive nursing ability between the two groups, while the post-training comprehensive nursing ability scores were significantly higher in both subitem score and total score [(86.53±2.61) vs. (80.32±2.31)] in the experimental group than in the control group ( P<0.05). After the training, students in the experimental group showed increased recognition of the teaching methods in stimulating their learning interest and initiative, improving their self-learning ability, improving their comprehensive literacy, improving their ability to apply theoretical knowledge, and improving their clinical thinking ability compared with the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The application of step-by-step mentorship combined with individualized assessment in practical nursing skill training in higher vocational colleges can improve students' academic performance and comprehensive nursing ability and increase their recognition of the teaching methods, thus making it worthwhile to be widely adopted.
