Indian Journal Of Applied Research. 2023 Jul; 13(7): 1-32249-555Xhttp://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/221465The present investigation was conducted with a view to assessing differences among married and unmarried nurses on Perceived Daily hassles, Proactive vs. Reactive coping and Psychological Capital in Private hospitals at kolkata and to see the interrelationships among these variables. Data was collected from 60 married and 60 unmarried nurses of private hospitals at Kolkata. Questionnaire and Scale on Daily Hassles, Proactive and Reactive coping and Psychological Capital were administered seperately. For both unmarried and married nurses the correlation between PSYCAP and Daily Hassles found to be highly significant. Correlation between PSYCAP and Proactive coping also found to be highly significant for both married and unmarried nurses. PSYCAP and Reactive coping found to be highly significant only for unmarried nurses. This study may give us an idea about stress and coping strategies of nurses of private hospitals.Objective of the study is to identify if PSYCAP's can be assessed and developed more(which can be done at literature indicates) and if the outlook of this patriarchal society can be changed somehow perhaps together these two will mean a lot of positive things for (un)married women to control and master stressful situations in daily life to their advantage.Journal ArticleIndiaAssociate Professor, University Of Calcutta, Department of Applied Psycology
