PURPOSE: The effects of a prevention program applied on psychodrama for female high school students were examined.
METHODS: Thirty-seven students at a female high school in D and G city participated. The study was conducted from September 8 to November 21, 2014. To test the effects of the program, participants were divided into two groups of 17 students experimental group and 20 students control group. A nonequivalent control group, non-synchronized pre-posttest quasi-experimental research design was used. The tools included a self-efficacy scale, an anger scale, and a suicide ideation scale. x2 test, t-test, and ANCOVA were used to analyze the data with the SPSS/WIN 23.0 program.
RESULTS: Significant differences between the two groups were found in the anger scale (F=12.43, p=001), self-efficacy (F=4.23, p=.048), and a suicide ideation (F=29.98, p<.001).
CONCLUSION: Results suggest that the suicide prevention program applied on psychodrama is an effective nursing intervention, for improving self-efficacy as well as decreasing anger and suicide ideation among female high school students. © 2022 The Korean Academy of Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing.
