This study examined the interplay among spirituality, self-efficacy and resilience in this context.
A cross-sectional study.
A total of 178 parents of children newly diagnosed with diabetes mellitus; the instruments used for data collection were the Parental Self-Efficacy Scale for Diabetes Management, The Arabic version of The Walsh Family Resilience Questionnaire and the Spiritual Perspective Scale.
Self-efficacy had a significant positive direct effect on family resilience. Spirituality also had a significant positive direct effect on family resilience. Additionally, self-efficacy had a significant positive indirect effect on family resilience through its effect on spirituality.
The findings underscore the impact of spirituality and self-efficacy on a family resilience.
Nurses should prioritise self-care and personal reflection to enhance their spiritual well-being. This can help them better understand and empathise with their patients' spiritual needs, allowing for more effective and compassionate care.
Upon the initial diagnosis of diabetes in a child, parents undergo a profound emotional and psychological upheaval. They are faced with the daunting task of managing their child's condition while also coping with their feelings of distress, uncertainty and fear. Amidst these challenges, factors such as self-efficacy and resilience play pivotal roles in determining how parents adapt to and navigate this new reality.
Nurses can use spiritual care to give parents a sense of meaning, purpose and hope, bolstering their self-efficacy and resilience.
The relevant reporting method has been adhered to, that is, STROBE.
In our research, data collection is assisted by nurses working in community-based settings.
To investigate the association between emotional responses to climate change, antenatal anxiety, and maternal–fetal attachment in primigravida women.
A multi-site cross-sectional research design study.
This study was conducted at four primary health care (PHC) facilities in Damanhur district, El-Behera, from February 2024 to April 2024. Two hundred eighty-five women completed a comprehensive questionnaire that included a Woman's Social and Reproductive Form, The inventory of climate emotions (ICE) scale, The Stirling Antenatal Anxiety Scale (SAAS) and the Maternal–Fetal Attachment Scale (MFAS-HU-20).
The study revealed that emotional responses to climate change show strong positive correlations with each other, ranging from 0.689 to 0.840, all significant at p < 0.001 level. Additionally, antenatal anxiety demonstrates substantial positive correlations with emotional responses to climate change, albeit with associations ranging from 0.239 to 0.287, all significant at p < 0.001 level. Moreover, maternal–fetal attachment displays substantial negative correlations with emotional responses to climate change, indicating that as emotional responses to climate change increase, maternal–fetal attachment tends to decrease. The correlations range from −0.263 to −0.426, all significant at p < 0.001.
The emotional impact of climate change can adversely affect the bonding process between mother and fetus.
Healthcare professionals, including obstetricians, midwives, and mental health counsellors, should integrate climate-related emotional distress into their assessments and interventions. Providing targeted psychological support for expectant mothers.
The study's findings highlight the need for nursing to integrate climate-related emotional distress screening into prenatal care and for research to explore long-term effects and intervention effectiveness. In practice, healthcare providers should adopt holistic approaches that combine environmental and psychological support, developing comprehensive guidelines and community-based programs to support pregnant women.
The research adhered to that is STROBE.
