In general, the perception of behavior change may be associated with habitual exercise. However, this association might not be well-understood due to the state of emergency of the COVID-19 pandemic. This study collected data from 1499 internet users aged 20–86 years living in Japan who participated in the online survey from 26 to 27 February 2021. Having a perception of behavior change was defined as preparation, action, and maintenance of the transtheoretical model. The habitual exercise was defined as 600 metabolic equivalent min/week or more based on the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to calculate the odds ratio of habitual exercise and a 95% confidence interval was estimated after adjusting for related factors. We found that perception of behavior change was positively associated with habitual exercise (adjusted odds ratio = 2.41, 95%CI = 1.89–3.08), and similar associations were found in states of emergency (2.69, 1.97–3.69) and non-emergency (2.01, 1.34–3.01). Moreover, women were negatively associated in all analyses with habitual exercise compared to men (0.63, 0.49–0.80; 0.65, 0.44–0.96; 0.62, and 0.45–0.84, respectively). Thus, the perception of behavior change may be involved in the implementation of habitual exercise, suggesting that women face difficulties in engaging in habitual exercise.

鹿児島県内の2施設で働く臨床看護師を対象に、バーンアウトに対してレジリエンスと関連要因が及ぼす影響を横断的に調査した。本質問紙調査にはPinesのバーンアウト尺度や二次元レジリエンス要因尺度などを使用し、2020年4月に実施した。2施設のうち一方は本土の都市部にある500床を超える三次医療機関で、看護師82名(本土群)に質問紙を配布した。もう一方は離島にある中核病院であり、看護師70名(離島群)に配布した。合わせて99名(65%)から回答が得られ、不適格の1名を除く本土群59名(女性51名、性別記載なし1名)と離島群39名(女性28名)の回答内容を解析した。バーンアウトの有症率は本土群で20%、離島群で36%であった。生得的レジリエンスという要因はバーンアウトと負に関連していることがどちらの群でも示された。また獲得的レジリエンスにも同様の関連性が観察された(本土群でP=0.007、離島群でP=0.057)。全集団においては、生得的レジリエンスと職場での社会的支援がバーンアウトと負に関連し、離職意図は正に関連していることが示された。

<p><b>Background </b>Burnout, due to extreme mental and physical fatigue, and emotional exhaustion, leads to decreased nursing quality and turnover. However, not all nurses are observed as burnouts in the same work environment, and resilience and related factors may have effects on the development of burnouts. Therefore, we conducted a cross-sectional study to examine the effects of resilience and related factors on the burnout in clinical nurses, Kagoshima, Japan.</p><p><b>Methods </b>Data for this cross-sectional study involving nurses (<i>n</i> = 98) was collected using the following questionnaire surveys: the Bidimensional Resilience Scale, The Workplace Social Support Scale, and the Japanese version of the Pine’s Burnout Scale. Using burnout as a dependent variable, analyses were conducted using one-way analysis of variance and multiple regression analysis after adjusted for related factors.</p><p><b>Results </b>The prevalence of burnouts was 19.6% on the mainland and 36.1% on remote island. Innate resilience, acquired resilience, workplace social support, and burnout showed no significant difference between nurses on the mainland and remote island. In the mainland participants, innate resilience (β = –0.492, <i>P</i> < 0.001) and acquired resilience (β = –0.325, <i>P</i> = 0.007) showed a negative association with burnout, and similar associations were observed innate resilience (β = –0.520, <i>P</i> = 0.004) and acquired resilience (β = –0.336, <i>P</i> = 0.057) in the remote island participants. For all participants, innate resilience (β = –0.443, <i>P</i> = 0.001) and workplace social support (β = –0.204, <i>P</i> = 0.031) showed a negative association with burnout, and turnover intention was positively associated (β = 0.025, <i>P</i> = 0.021).</p><p><b>Conclusion </b>A negative association between burnout and innate resilience factors was observed in the mainland and remote island. Further evaluation of innate resilience is necessary for burnout prevention in clinical nurses.</p>

Regular exercise may be associated with better self-rated health and sleep status. However, this correlation among various age groups, such as young, middle-aged, and older people, as well as during the COVID-19 pandemic, has not been examined. This study examined the correlation between regular exercise and self-rated health and sleep quality among adults in Japan during the COVID-19 pandemic. Data were collected using an online survey conducted between February 26 and 27, 2021. A total of 1410 adults in Japan (age range, 20–86 years) completed the online survey. Regular exercise was divided into: (1) more than 30 min of moderate exercise a day, (2) more than 2 days per week, and (3) continuous for 1 year or longer. Self-rated health and sleep quality were assessed using the Likert scale. After adjusting for multiple confounders, regular exercise was correlated with decreased poor self-rated health and poor sleep quality in middle-aged adults; however, no significant correlation was observed among young and older adults. The promotion of regular exercise among middle-aged people during the COVID-19 pandemic may contribute to better self-rated health and sleep quality status.
