Abstract
Death anxiety in staff nurses can influence their communication with and the quality of their care delivery for dying patients. The aim of the current study is to investigate the relationship and predictability of death anxiety by cognitive emotion regulation strategies and optimism in nurses working in critical care and general wards. Materials & Methods: In this descriptive correlational study, 300 nurses (227 females, 73males) were selected by stratified random sampling method from hospitals in Urmia city. The participants were assessed using the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Strategies Questionnaire (CERS-Q), Templer Death Anxiety Scale and revised life- orientation Test. The data was analyzed by Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise regression analysis. Result: The findings showed that there was significant relationship between death anxiety with subscales of cognitive emotion regulation strategies and optimism (p<0/01). It was found that catastrophizing, other-blame, positive refocusing, rumination, positive refocus on planning, acceptance and optimism accounted for 41% of variance of death anxiety. Conclusion: The findings emphasized on the need to recognize the role of cognitive emotion regulation strategies and optimism in predicting nurses’ death anxiety
