With the beginning of the corona crisis, nurses suffered from psychological problems that needed interventions. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy of the processing unit on the perceptual stress and anxiety of nurses during the corona crisis epidemic.

The current research method was descriptive and semi-experimental. The statistical population was nurses in the ward of corona patients of Shahid Beheshti and Shahid Yahyanejad hospitals in Babol city in 2021, the statistical sample size of 30 people was determined and selected by available sampling method and randomly assigned to two experimental groups and control group. The tools used in this research were the anxiety questionnaire, the perceived stress questionnaire, and the worry questionnaire.

The results of the analysis of covariance showed that cognitive behavioral therapy reduced the cognitive stress and anxiety of nurses during the corona crisis epidemic (P<0.001).

Considering the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy in reducing nurses' perceptual stress and anxiety, health professionals can use this method to reduce nurses' psychological problems.

Considering the importance of treating the global pandemic diseases and the important role of nurses and their psychological issues, this study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Modular Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (MCBT) on nurses' rumination and perceived stress in the COVID-19 wards.

Methods :

This is a semi-experimental study with a pre-test-post-test and follow-up with a Control group design. The study population consisted of all the nurses of Shahid Beheshti and Shahid Yahyanejhad hospitals in Babol city in 2021. Thirty nurses were included through convenience sampling method and randomly divided into two equal intervention and control groups. The Modular Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy of the experimental group was conducted in 10 sessions of 90 minutes each time. The questionnaires for both groups were completed in three stages, before the intervention, 1 day after the intervention and 4 weeks after the intervention. The Rumination Scale designed by Nolen-Hoeksema & Morrow (1991), and the Cohen’s Perceived Stress Scale (1983) were used for data collection. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 22 using descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and analysis of covariance at the 0.05 significance level.

The results showed that Modular Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy had a significant effect on rumination (F=33.491) and perceived stress (F=24.186) among nurses in the COVID-19 wards (p<0.01). Based on the results, the cognitive-behavioral therapy of a processing unit has been significantly effective in rumination (F=33.491) and perceptual stress (F=24.186) in nurses during the Covid-19 crisis (p<0.01).

According to the results of this study, Modular Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy had a positive effect on reducing rumination and perceived stress. Therefore, it is suggested that the health consultants and planners can extend the Modular Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy-based interventions on to increase the nurses’ awareness of perceived stress
