The nursing profession is faced with various challenges, and the work of nurses and technicians has become extremely responsible and demanding. Sometimes such a way of working can have negative consequences on mental health. The goal was to examine the differences in suicidality between nurses/technicians and nursing students, the association of suicidality with sociodemographic variables and loneliness in nursing students and nurses/technicians, and the contribution of variables to suicidality in nurses/technicians and nursing students. Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on the population of nurses and technicians and nursing students. A total of 144 respondents participated in the online survey conducted in February and March 2023. One hundred and thirteen (78.5%) employed nurses and technicians who are not studying and 31 (21.5%) nursing students participated in the research, the mean age of the respondents was 31.26 (SD=11.62). Sociodemographic data were collected. The presence of suicidal thoughts was tested with the attribute scale of suicidal ideation. Loneliness was tested with the scale of social and emotional loneliness. Results: Significantly higher levels of suicidality were found in nursing students compared to nurses/technicians (Mann-Whitney test; p=0.047). The results showed that in nursing students there is a significant moderate positive association between suicidality and family loneliness (Spearman's correlation; p=0.018) and a moderate negative association with the assessment of financial status (Spearman's correlation; p=0.019). In nurses/technicians, the results showed that suicidality is moderately positively associated with social (Spearman correlations; p |
