Three of the five items from the social pressure subscale of the Secondary Traumatic Stress Questionnaire were used (e.g., ‘The most annoying thing is the reproaches of the patient's relatives’; Meda et al., 2012). The two items that were omitted were more relevant to individuals working in hospitals or emergency services than to those working in nursing homes (e.g., ‘I have difficulty caring for aggressors, drug addicts, drunkards’). The response scale ranged from 1 (‘strongly disagree’) to 4 (‘strongly agree’).
