Özet

AMAÇ: Bu çalışmada Nijeryalı göz uzmanları arasında mesleki stresörler ve başetme stratejilerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. YÖNTEM: Bu tanımlayıcı kesitsel çalışma Nijerya Göz Hastalıkları Derneğinin Güneybatı Nijerya'daki Obafemi Awolowo Universitesindeki (Ile-Ife, Osun State) yıllık kongresi sırasında 1418 Eylül 2008 tarihleri arasında yürütülmüştür. Kongreye katılan 208 göz uzmanından basit rastgele örnekleme ile seçilen 80 göz uzmanı arasında yürütülmüştür. Katılımcılarla yazar ve iki yardımcı tarafından yapılandırılmış soru formu kullanılarak görüşme yapılmıştır. Veriler SPSS 12.0.1 programı ile analiz edilmiştir. BULGULAR: Katılımcıların 34(%42,5)'ü erkek, 46 (%57,5)'sı kadındı. Katılımcıların 48 (%60)'i danışman (consultant) doctor, 4 (%5)'ü uzman (diplomate) doctor, 28 (%35)'i ise uzmanlık öğrencisi idi. Stres kaynakları, boş zamanın olmaması (%73,75), aşırı iş yükü (%68,75) ve parasal sıkıntı (%68,75) idi. Başetme stratejileri ise dini inanç telkini (%95,00), stress gerçeğinin kabullenilmesi (%88,75) ve mizah (%88,75) idi. SONUÇ: En yüksek stres kaynağı boş zamanın olmamasıydı ve aşırı iş yükü ile parasal sıkıntı bunu takip ediyordu. Çou katılımcı stresle başetmek için dini inançtan telkin alıyordu. Hastane içerisinde rekreasyon alanlarının oluşturulması ve doktorların refah paketinin iyileştirilmesine ihtiyaç vardır
