Abstract

Introduction: As a result of their stressful job, NURSES are supposed to be vulnerable to aggressive behaviors. This study was done to assess the rate of AGGRESSION among NURSES.Method and Materials: This was a descriptive-analytic study on 100 NURSES working in PEDIATRIC WARDs of all general hospitals in Isfahan in 2006. AGGRESSION Questionnaire (AGQ) as well as a Demographic questionnaire was administered. Data was analyzed using Fisher Exact Test running SPSS software.Findings: A total of 23% of NURSES had scores more than 45. Considering the sex, 10% of men, and 24.2% of women had scores more than 45. There was no significant relationship between AGGRESSION and sex. Considering the age group, 34.8% of the NURSES in the age group of 22 to 29 years old, 16.6% of those in the age group of 30 to 39 and 7% of those in the age group over 40 had scores more than 45. There was a significant relationship between AGGRESSION and age. A rate of 14.9% of the single NURSES versus 35.6% of the married ones had scores more than 45. A significant relationship was found between AGGRESSION and marital status. There was also a significant positive relationship between AGGRESSION and the years of service. No significant relationship was found between AGGRESSION and the level of education, shift of work, different wards of hospital, different hospitals and the salary pay.Discussion: Based on the results of this study, AGGRESSION was higher in the lower age group and those with lower work experience. AGGRESSION was higher in the married group. These results should be considered in planning appropriate mental health intervention.
