Empathy and Emotional Regulation: A Multi-National Cross-Sectional Study
Empathy and Emotional Regulation as Protective Factors Against Burnout Among Nursing Students: A Multi-National Cross-Sectional Study
Significant levels of psychological disorders and psychological distress among higher education students have been reported worldwide (Galdino et al., 2020), given that during these years there is a peak in prevalence of many mental disorders, particularly major depressive disorder (18.5% to 21.2%), generalized anxiety disorder (18.6% to 16.7%) and drug use disorder (45.9% to 59.8%). (Auerbach et al., 2018). Additionally, compared to other major students, medical school and nursing students experienced higher levels of burnout due to the complex curriculum and pressure for professional performance (Ling et al., 2014). Altogether, this evidence show that nursing students frequently experience psychological and emotional problems such as academic exhaustion, stress, depression, and anxiety during their four years of completing their degree (Hwang & Kim, 2022).
To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first of its kind that addresses the issue of burnout and its relation to empathy and emotional regulation among nursing students at the middle east. Analyzing burnout syndrome among undergraduate nursing students may provide support for managers to implement prevention and management strategies in relation to the syndrome, in order to ensure health and well-being during the professional training process, as well as providing training for nurses engaged and prepared to provide quality care. Thus, this study aims to investigate the burnout syndrome among nursing students and its relation to empathy and emotional regulation.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey (MBI-SS)
Time Frame: Baseline
|
The MBI-SS is made up of 15 items that constitute three scales: emotional exhaustion (EX; five items), cynicism (CY; four items), and academic efficacy (AE; six items).
All the items are scored by using a seven-point Likert scale [from 0 (never) to 6 (always)].
High scores on EX, CY and low scores on AE were indicative of burnout (Academic efficacy items are reversed scored).
According to the MBI-SS, high scores in the subscale of EX and CY indicate burnout, whereas low scores in AE indicate burnout.

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Jefferson Scale of Empathy-Health Profession Student version (JSE-HPS)
Time Frame: Baseline
|
The JSE-HPS was developed with the preliminary psychometric data published in 2001 and is copyrighted by Thomas Jefferson University.
The Jefferson Scale of Physician Empathy (JSPE) was originally developed to allow the measurement of empathy in physician cohorts (Hojat et al., 2001).
However, given the importance of empathy as an undergraduate student trait, a number of research teams have adapted the JSPE for use with students from healthcare professions other than medicine (Fields et al., 2011; Fjortoft et al., 2011).
The JSE-HPS consists of 20 items, which are responded on a seven-point Likert scale with 1 being strongly disagree and 7 being strongly agree for positively responded items and 1 being strongly agree and 7 being strongly disagree otherwise

Baseline
|
Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ)
Time Frame: Baseline
|
Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ) (Gross & John, 2003).
This questionnaire is a 10-item self-report measure of two emotion regulation strategies: emotional suppression (ES; 4 items) and cognitive reappraisal (CR; 6 items).
The participants responded on a 7-point Likert scale (1 = strongly disagree to 7 = strongly agree).
The total score ranged from 10 to 70 and the mean score was utilized, with a higher score presenting a higher level of emotion regulation strategies
