Abstract
This study is a quasi-experimental study designed to examine the effects of color therapy on job stress and depression by applying color therapy to intensive care unit nurses. The subjects of this study were S hospital located in S city, a secondary medical institution with 500 beds, P hospital located in B city, and nurses in the intensive care unit of two general hospitals. The data collection period was 8 weeks from November 2, 2020 to December 25, 2020, with 29 patients in the experimental group and 29 in the control group. The data were analyzed by chi-square test, independent t-test and paired t-test using the SPSS WIN 22.0 program. The experimental group applied color therapy twice a day (before and after work) using a standardized canvas frame painted in yellow, red, blue, and three colors, and a total of 20 times for 10 days, and the control group lived and woked as usual without appiled color therapy. As a result of study, the experimental group showed a significant decrease in job stress score by 0.43 points and depression score by 0.26 points compared to the control group
