Research Abstract |
To develop a stress management program for prevention of mental disorders in workers, we planned a stress prevention education program, evaluated it by RCT and examined the evaluation indicators. The program based on cognitive behavioral therapy was planned together with occupational health nurses. 100 company workers participated in the RCT. The intervention group showed improvements in depression and prevention of getting worse, compared to the control group. After modifying the program an RCT was performed among 64 workers of another company. Over 80% of the participants gave positive answers about coping skills (cognitive restructure, problem solving etc.). The outcome variables were analyzed using the data of 159 participants. Significant correlations were found between depression and coping, perceived health competence and sense of coherence. This finding is useful for defining observable evaluation indicators for preventing depression.
