Especially in emotional-oriented attitudes, this difference was meaningful at the advanced level. People who use substances in our work (alcohol, drugs, etc.) While there is no meaningful difference in the use of non-functional treatment attitudes among those who do not use, the median values of problem-oriented and emotional-oriented treatment attitudes have been shown to be significantly higher in the non-substance group. Some professions are more stressful than others. The nursing profession is also among these stressful professions in terms of working conditions and requires to have attitudes to deal effectively.
