A systematic literature review on the implications of job dissatisfaction among nurses in Asia
No full textAmong the 9,000 nurses surveyed in October 2021, only 40% of the results claimed that they were satisfied with their professional life, as opposed to a previous survey in 2018, which garnered a 62% satisfactory response. Through a systematic literature review, this study aimed to determine the factors and implications of job dissatisfaction among nurses in Asia that are currently available in high-quality research. This study utilized a systematic method to review existing studies. In gathering data, the PRISMA diagram was used as a basis. The literature selected in the study underwent abstract reviewing for inclusion and exclusion criteria first, followed by a full-text review of the studies available across different platforms, such as Google Scholar, ProQuest, and SageJournals from 2018–present, considering the potential sources of bias or factors that may affect the validity of the findings. Findings indicate that only nine studies (from Saudi Arabia, Korea, China, Iran, Jordan, Singapore, and Turkey) were included and identified as low-risk, therefore high-quality research. The study was able to form a thematic map, indicating the different factors and implications of job dissatisfaction for nurses and its sub-themes. Findings also indicate that every factor and implication leading to job dissatisfaction can affect their productivity and capability to provide quality healthcare to their patients. Findings call for the development of instruments to promote stress management, such as promoting work-life balance and having a nurturing and empowering work environment, as nurses’ mental health plays a crucial role in quality patient care and a nurturing and positive work environment for colleagues

Exploring the relationship of parental involvement on help-seeking attitudes among adolescents regarding their mental health
No full textAdolescence is characterized by significant biological, social, and psychological changes, with recent developments extending the age range from 12 up to 25 years of age. Adolescents face various mental health difficulties due to hormonal changes, brain development, and social pressures. This consequently highlights adolescents\u27 tendency to seek help for their issues. Parents, as crucial influencers of adolescents\u27 development, play a potentially vital role in shaping their help-seeking attitudes. Hence, this study aimed to explore the relationship between parental involvement and adolescents’ willingness to seek help for mental issues. Explanatory sequential, cross-sectional, thematic analysis, and phenomenological research designs were utilized in this mixed method study. 200 participants from De La Salle Medical and Health Sciences Institute, aged 15 to 18, were selected through random quota sampling and systematic random sampling. To collect the data, an online survey through Google Forms and interviews were conducted with questions focusing on their perceptions regarding the relationship of parental involvement and help-seeking attitude of adolescents. The Mental Help Seeking Attitudes Scale (MHSAS), a 9-item instrument to measure attitudes towards seeking help from a mental health professional, and Maternal and Paternal Involvement, a survey used to evaluate the relationship between adolescents and their parents, were utilized as research instruments. The results were analyzed using descriptive statistics and linear regression. The findings revealed that there is no significant relationship between parental involvement and the help-seeking attitude of adolescents; various factors such as cultural disparity, neutrality, and autonomy all contribute to the perspectives of the participants regarding help-seeking and parental involvement
