Abstract

Purpose: To understand the recent trend of studies for nursing job stress, we collected Korean articles about job stress of clinical nurses.
Method: Seventy two articles were selected from the database of "richis", Korean journals of related academic society, and dissertation papers, which are presented from 1981 to 2002.
Result: The trend shows that the number of researches for the job stress of clinical nurses are increasing from the year of 1996. Most of the researches are for dissertation papers (75.0%), have done surveys (90.3%), and used questionnaires (94.4%). The nurses who were studied have their jobs in general wards of hospitals (50.6%). And 36.1% of the researches used the tool of Kim and Gu (1984) to measure job stress. These researches focused mainly on job satisfaction, burnout and coping successively.
Conclusion: As only 6 out of 72 researches examined in this study have experimental design (8.3%), it can be said that more experimental studies are needed in this area. And we might also consider to use metaanalytic techniques for further studies, because these researches have used very similar tools for the same subject.
