Caring Efficacy
Conditions
Brief summary
People with high self-efficacy set goals to challenge and improve their task achievement rate; however, people with low self-efficacy tend to have fluctuation in their ways of thinking, which results in dampened spirits. Self-efficacy affects mental health. Therefore, psychiatric nurses' achievements that affect their self-efficacy may differ from those of general workers or other nurses. In such a situation, psychiatric nurses feel that uncertainty of care and an unmotivated appearance of the patient can lead to reduced self-efficacy. Consequently, nurses are likely to give up active involvement with patients who will not be leaving the hospital.
Detailed description
