Abstract

This study was conducted to identify factors affecting depression in junior nursing students(JNS). The number of the participants was 144 at a college in S and G city. The data were collected using questionnaires about somatic symptoms(SS), sleep quality, stress, adaptation to college life(AC), depression. Mean score of depression was 18.89, 58.3% are experiencing depression that requires clinical treatment. The significant predictors of JNS were levels of depression AC(β=-.503, p=.000) and SS(β=.263, p=.000) respectively, explaining 58.9% of variance. In order to control the depressive symptoms of JNS, it is necessary to diagnose basic learning ability from the beginning of admission and provide guidance management plans to help students adapt to academic activities by providing customized programs for each level to improve learning ability. It is necessary to develop and apply various intervention programs to alleviate physical symptoms such as fatigue/low energy experienced by JNS.

본 연구는 저학년 간호대학생의 우울 영향 요인을 탐색하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 본 연구를 위해 S와 G지역의 종합대학 저학년 간호대학생 144명에게 신체증상, 수면의 질, 스트레스, 대학생활 적응, 우울로 구성된 자가보고식 설문지로 자료를 수집하였다. 저학년 간호대학생의 우울은 평균 18.89점이며, 58.3%가 임상치료가 필요한 우울증상을 경험하고 있었다. 우울 영향 요인으로 대학생활 적응(β=-.503, p=.000), 신체증상(β=.263, p=.000)순으로 나타났고, 우울의 설명력은 58.9%로 나타났다. 이에 저학년 간호대학생의 우울을 조절하기 위해서 입학초기부터 기초학습 능력을 진단하고, 학습능력향상을 위한 수준별 맞춤형 프로그램 제공을 통해 학문적 적응을 돕는 지도관리 방안이 마련되어야 할 것이다. 또한 다빈도로 경험하는 피로감/기운없음과 같은 신체증상을 완화하기 위한 다양한 중재프로그램의 개발 및 적용이 필요하다.
