Abstract: (1079 Views)
Background: The human body has a circadian rhythm too, which is repeated every 24 hours. According to the changes in the night shift work of nurses, it can be expected that marital satisfaction will be affected by sleep quality and fatigue caused by waking up during the night. However, few studies have been conducted regarding the impact of this index on the marital life of nurses.
Aims: The present study was conducted to explain the structural equation model of marital satisfaction based on sexual self-efficacy with the mediation of circadian rhythms in female nurses.
Methods: This research is descriptive correlational. The statistical population of this research was all married female nurses working in government hospitals of Tehran in 2023 in number of 2361 people. 330 sample people were selected through a multi-stage cluster sampling method. Sexual self-efficacy questionnaire (Vaziri and Lotfi Kashani 2018), Marital satisfaction scale (Hudson et al., 1981), and Circadian rhythms scale (Jaafari Roudbandi et al., 2012) as data collection tools were used. After confirming the normality of the data, the structural equation model was used with SmartPLS3 software.
Results: The results showed that the mentioned indicators have an acceptable t value at a significant level (p< 0.05), so they are effective in changing the marital satisfaction of nursing women. Also, the mediating role of circadian rhythms on these relationships was confirmed.
Conclusion: Based on these results, it can be concluded that by educating nurses about circadian rhythms and improving sleep quality, effective steps can be taken to improve marital satisfaction and sexual self-efficacy which is the basic basis of marital relationship strength.
