Abstract

Purpose: Understanding the importance of psychological well-being and school burnout in nursing students, as young human resources with high job sensitivity, the present study aimed to study the effect of emotion regulation training on nursing students' psychological well-being and school burnout. Design/methodology/approach: This experimental-interventional study was conducted at Kurdistan University of Medical Sciences (n = 381). Ninety nursing students were selected by stratified random sampling according to inclusion criteria. The participants were placed in two case groups (n = 45) and control (n = 45). Emotion regulation training was designed and implemented for the case group. Data collection tools included self-design demographic questionnaires, school burnout of Brusso scale, and psychological well-being of Warwick Edinburgh scale. The validity and reliability of the tools were evaluated and confirmed. The data were collected before and one month after the intervention for both groups. Finally, they were analyzed using SPSS-v24 software. Findings: The mean (±SD) of psychological well-being scores of the participants in the intervention group before and after the implementation of emotion regulation training were 47.91 (5.70) and 55.35 (4.99), respectively.
