Background

Employment anxiety is a kind of nervous and persistent negative emotion that college students have toward the future when they are about to graduate. It causes a series of cognitive, physiological, and behavioral changes, specifically manifested in the decline of sleep quality, anorexia, and pessimism. This psychological disease has a serious negative impact on the growth of college students. Psychological nursing is to conduct psychological counseling and intervention for patients, carry out mental health education, and help patients alleviate anxiety symptoms and emotions. Given the characteristics of employment anxiety in college students, on the one hand, innovative and entrepreneurial thinking training will provide employment ideas for patients; on the other hand, psychological nursing should be used to properly intervene the patients with employment anxiety, to promote the rehabilitation of the disease.

Subjects and Methods

In the experiment, students suffering from employment anxiety were randomly selected from a university by simple random sampling and were equally divided into the experimental group (50 cases) and the control group (50 cases). The control group only carried out innovative and entrepreneurial thinking training, while the experimental group also carried out psychological nursing intervention in addition to innovative and entrepreneurial thinking training. One month after the experiment, the two groups of patients were evaluated and scored with the Employment Anxiety Scale and were judged whether they were cured.

Results

One month after treatment, the two groups of patients were evaluated with the College Students’ Employment Anxiety Scale, and the results are shown in Table 1.Table 1.

Comparison of anxiety scale scores between the two groups after treatment

Employment anxiety categoryControl groupExperimental grouptP
Physiological behavior of employment anxiety18.02415.9564.3550.0001

From Table 1, the average score of employment anxiety of the control group is 1.71 points lower than that of the experimental group. The cure rate of the control group was 87.52%, while that of the experimental group was only 66.13%. The cure rate of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant, with P < 0.05.

Conclusions

Compared with the control group, the experimental group added psychological nursing intervention based on the routine treatment of college students’ employment anxiety. The results show that psychological nursing can effectively improve the employment anxiety of college students, and its therapeutic effect is significantly better than that of only carrying out innovative and entrepreneurial thinking training. Therefore, the use of innovative and entrepreneurial thinking training combined with psychological nursing intervention can improve the cure rate of college students’ employment anxiety.
