AIMS: The study's purposes were twofold: (1) to explore the effect of perceived respect safety on the safety performance of ICU nurses and (2) to explore the mediation effect of Management Commitment to Safety (MCS) between the relationship of perceived respect safety and safety performance.
METHODS: Eight public hospitals from the Jordanian Ministry of Health (JMoH) were selected randomly using cluster sampling, and their ICU nurses were surveyed. A total of 285 nurses completed questionnaires. The SmartPLS3 bootstrapping technique was used to analyse data.
RESULTS: The results established that the perceived respect for the safety of nurses has a significant and positive effect on their safety compliance (β = .39, p
METHODS: Psychiatric outpatients that fulfill the selection criteria were recruited and randomized into two groups, the intervention group (n = 24) and the control group (n = 24). Those in the intervention group received MoodMission in addition to TAU, while those in the control group received TAU. Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) scores were assessed at baseline and after four weeks.
RESULTS: A total of 48 participants were recruited, randomized, and completed the study. Baseline characteristics for both groups were comparable. There is no significant mean difference between-group comparison of PHQ-9 (1.31, 95% CI -1.35, 3.98) and GAD-7 (0.02, 95% CI -2.01, 2.05) scores at four weeks. However, for the intervention group, there was a significant improvement in the PHQ-9 score at four weeks [mean difference 2.58 (95% CI 1.16, 4.01), P = 0.001)].
CONCLUSION: This study showed no significant improvement in anxiety symptoms after four weeks. Use of smartphone-based mental health applications led to significant reduction of depressive symptoms.
