Software and Algorithms Sentences Resources To achieve an 80% power, with alpha set at 0.05 and small effect size set at 0.05 (Soper, 2020), a sample size of 293 nurses would be required, as determined using the G*power program, software version 3.1.9.9 (Faul et al., 2007). G*powersuggested: (G*Power, RRID:SCR_013726)Data were analysed using version 23 of SPSS Statistics software for Windows 22. SPSSsuggested: (SPSS, RRID:SCR_002865)Results from OddPub: We did not detect open data. We also did not detect open code. Researchers are encouraged to share open data when possible (see Nature blog).
Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:Study Limitations: While this study provides evidence important for nursing administrators to assist nurses during pandemics, a few limitations were identified. Since this study involved nurses from only one province of the Philippines, results cannot be generalised to nurses throughout the country or the world. Next, the nature of the study design poses some limitations; for example, establishing causal links between variables may not be possible. The use of self-reported measures may have limited the responses of the participants; therefore, future studies may utilise both qualitative and quantitative designs to elicit essential information from the participants that could not have been captured by the scales used. Further, future studies utilising rigorous methods (e.g. experimental research design) may be conducted to examine and test the effectiveness of a resilience program and other initiatives to increase social and organisational support in reducing coronavirus anxiety in nurses. Finally, future research should explore how personal (e.g. self-efficacy, coping skills, hardiness) and organisational (adequacy of healthcare staffing, adequacy of hospital resources, number of patients admitted, hospital size) variables affect coronavirus anxiety in nurses. Implications for Nursing Management: Since dysfunctional levels of COVID-19 anxiety may have negative effects on nurses’ mental health and well-being, provision of adequate mental and psychological support should be pri...
