This study is a descriptive research study to identify the factors affecting the quality of professional life for nurses caring for COVID-19 patients. From April 10, 2023 to April 28, 2023, data were collected from 145 nurses caring for COVID-19 patients in three designated COVID-19 hospitals in G-do using a questionnaire. Descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correction coefficient, and hierarchical regression analysis were used using the SPSS 25.0 program. As a result of analyzing the factors affecting the quality of professional life of nurses caring for COVID-19 patients, resilience (β=.49, p<.001) and job stress (β=-.36, p<.001) were found, and the explanatory power of the model was 53.7% (F=32.20, p<.001). As a result of this study, in order to improve the quality of professional life of nurses caring for COVID-19 patients, concrete measures to reduce job stress and improve resilience should be sought.

This study aimed to assess the level of intention to tampon use among female university students and to identify factors influencing intention to tampon use. The participants were 140 female university students. Data collection was performed through an online survey using chi-squared test, spearman's correlation coefficients, and multivariable logistic regression analysis from March 13 to March 30, 2024. In this study, it was found that 63.6% of female university students had an intention to use tampon and factors influencing intention to tampon use were marital status, length of menstruation, and prior experience with tampon use. Specifically, participants who were 'unmarried', 'had menstruation lasting 5 days or shorter', and 'had previous experience with tampon use' demonstrated a higher intention to use tampons. Therefore, it is necessary to continuously monitor the changing patterns of women's menstrual product usage and intention, identify influencing factors, and establish educational and promotional strategies to provide information on the characteristics and usage of menstrual products, enabling women to choose the best products suited to their menstrual needs.

The fourth graders of the department of nursing at two universities located in U City and G City were selected as subjects. Descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple regression data were analyzed with the SPSS 21.0 program. As a result of the study, positive psychological capital had a positive correlation with career identity, and clinical practice stress had a negative correlation with career identity. The factors influencing career identity were clinical practice stress, major satisfaction, positive psychological capital, and gender, and the explanatory power was 31%. Therefore, it is necessary to develop and apply educational programs that can improve positive psychological capital and reduce clinical practice stress as a strategy to improve the career identity of nursing students.

Starting to occur during modern age, 'Comments on Current Events', or comments on current events, refers to the works which deliver the criticism or reputation about the issues of the time.

This study analyzed 2,794 elderly people aged 65 or older receiving public pensions using data from the 2022 Korean Welfare Panel in order to identify the factors affecting subjective well-being of the elderly receiving public pensions. For data analysis, descriptive statistics, correlations, and stepwise multiple regression analysis were used using IBM SPSS 29. As a result, the effects on subjective well-being of senior pensioners were in the order of self-esteem, family life satisfaction, leisure life satisfaction, family income satisfaction, depression, health status, social relationship satisfaction, and total annual pension. This model explained 34.6% of the total variation in subjective well-being of the elderly receiving pensions (F=168.15, p<.001). This study also attempted to examine the effect of pension on the subjective well-being of senior pensioners, but it was regarded that the effect would be relatively low due to the insufficient total pension amount. In order to improve the stable life and happiness of the elderly, it is necessary to supplement the pension system, develop programs in the community, make efforts to apply them practically, and carefully apply the government's medical and welfare services.
