Introduction: Work-related rumination is the cause of various psychological stresses in nurses and threatens their mental health. The aim of this study was to evaluate work- related rumination and related factors in Iranian nurses working in critical care units.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 182 nurses working in critical care units were selected by convenience sampling method. Data were collected through work-related demographic information questionnaire and rumination questionnaires (WRRQ) and analyzed using SPSS-v20 software.
Results: Work-related rumination in Iranian nurses working in critical care units was moderate (Mean =42.82). The highest and lowest averages were related to the dimensions of detachment and problem solving pondering, with averages of 15.41 and 13.32, respectively. There was a significant relationship between age, work experience and type of employment with work-related rumination (p <0.05).
Conclusion: Using the results of this study can help health policy makers to improve the effectiveness of designed measures and programs. Designing personal development programs can provide ideal conditions for nurses to grow up and develop and also reduce their exposure to work-related rumination stimuli and their adverse outcomes.
