Wyniki badań przedstawione w pracy potwierdzają postawioną przez autorki
hipotezę, zakładającą związek między doświadczeniem własnego cierpienia u lekarzy i pielęgniarek a późniejszymi ich postawami w stosunku do ich cierpiących
pacjentów. Wynika z tego, że jeśli osoba opiekująca się cierpiącym sama wykaże
akceptację wobec faktu cierpienia, to pomoże choremu pogodzić się z zaistniałą
w jego życiu sytuacją. Ponadto w oparciu o badania Kwestionariuszem Postaw
Wobec Cierpienia Makselona, wykazano pozytywne postawy zarówno lekarzy, jak
i pielęgniarek wobec cierpienia, wskazujące na istnienie przewagi komponenty
postawy poznawczo-emocjonalnej nad behawioralną.
abstract in English:
The world of suffering is extremely varied in its structure, dimensions and
consequences. It refers to each of us in a different way according to our personal sensitivity
and the structure of personality. However, it often happens that while experiencing suffering
we feel crushed with its suddenness and strength. There are many attitudes to suffering.
Everybody suffers in their own unique way, which is conditioned by an individual hierarchy
of values. The aim of this research was to get to know the attitude of doctors and nurses to
their own and other people’s suffering and to recognise those aspects of life which have an
influence on creating those attitudes in groups under research. In connection with all this, some
research hypotheses were proposed assuming adoption, of positive attitudes to suffering in
which the emotional component and relation between own experience of suffering by doctors
and nurses and the subsequent attitudes of therapeutic team predominate. To conduct the
research a questionnaire which contains questions about the demographic and problematic
character referring to opinions of own suffering experienced by those under research and
attitude to the patients was individually elaborated. The research was conducted in a group
of 40 doctors and 40 nurses.
As a result of the research the positive attitudes to suffering have been proved among both
doctors and nurses. However, among nurses, some predominance of emotional component
has been noticed. There is predominance of the cognitive-emotional component over the
behavioural in the whole group under research.
