The collected data were analyzed with the SPSS 23.0 program using descriptive statistics, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression. The results of the study showed that there were differences in the subjects' college life adaptation depending on their gender (t=5.26, p<.001), daily average duration of using social network service (F=8.07, p<.001), and friends in real life (F=2.87, p=.037). College life adaptation had a significant correlation with social network service addiction tendency (r=-.31, p<.001) and interpersonal relationships (r=.52, p<.001), and social network service addiction tendency with interpersonal relationships had a significant correlation (r=-.17, p=.011). Factors that affected college life adaptation included interpersonal relationships (𝛽=.477, p<.001), gender (𝛽=-.198, p=.001), and daily average duration of using social network service (𝛽=-.177, p=.003), and the explanatory power of these factors was 37.8%.

The purpose of this study was to investigate levels of self-efficacy, nurse image, vocational identity, and clinical practice satisfaction, to examine relationships among them, and finally to investigate predictors affecting of clinical practice satisfaction in nursing students. The participants were 227 nursing students in D city who were surveyed in September 2018 using self-report questionnaires. Self-efficacy, nurse image, vocational identity, and clinical practice satisfaction were related positively among variables. In the multiple regression analysis, self-efficacy, nurse image, vocational identity, health condition, relationship with practical colleague and 'satisfaction of nursing students in patient's recognition of nursing students' were influential factors significantly associated with the clinical practice satisfaction. Those factors explained 17.9% of the clinical practice satisfaction of nursing students. The most important factors were 'satisfaction of nursing students in patient's recognition of nursing students' and nurse image. In order to improve clinical practice satisfaction of nursing students, whole nurses should consider helping nursing students and patients to build up positive nurse image.

The purpose of this study is to identify the effects of stress and sleep quality on depression during clinical practice of nursing students. The subjects of the study were third and fourth graders who experienced clinical practice for more than a semester among nursing students at C University in one region. A total of 107 people were analyzed. Most of the nursing students experienced more than moderate stress and depression during clinical practice, and the quality of sleep was low. During clinical practice, the stress of nursing students showed a weak correlation with the quality of sleep(r=.393, p<.001), and depression showed a strong net correlation with stress(r=.588, p<.001), the quality of sleep(r=.591, p<.001). Factors affecting depression during clinical practice were stress and the quality of sleep. Therefore, effective management methods that can relieve the stress of nursing college students during clinical practice and improve the quality of sleep and active nursing strategies that can prevent depression should be sought.

Although dental hygiene has haven a special domain of knowledge and its own business territory, people have misunderstandings about dental hygienists as nurses or nirses' aides in Korea. Inadequate knowledge could make negative results for university applicants to choose department of dental hygiene. This study was aimed to compare major and job satisfaction of students and graduates in dental hygiene and nursing for objective comparison and suggestion for dental hygiene. The subjects were 98 dental hygiene students, 113 nursing students, 53 dental hygienists, and 53 nurses by convenience sampling in Daejeon. The questionnaire consisted of satisfaction of college life, social identity, career path and job. ANOVA with Tukey post-hoc analysis was used with SPSS 20.0 program. Although dental hygiene students scored lower than nursing students in satisfaction of college life, social identity, career path and job, dental hygienists, nurse and dental hygiene students didn't have different satisfaction of job. Dental hygienists scored the lowest in relation with clinical work and major curriculum, and sexual discrimination. Nurses scored the lowest in working condition and salary. Dental hygienists and dental hygiene students had lower scores in information and advice of career path, entrance to graduate school, stable work, family's pride of my major, social position and so on.

The purpose of this study was to the effects of case-based learning (CBL) on problem solving ability and academic self-efficacy in nursing students and was a quasi-experimental study with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The subjects of this study were 121 grade 4 students, and the data collection period was from Aprill 24 to June 12, 2023. The research procedure was scenario development, preliminary investigation, application of case-based learning classes, and follow-up investigation, and the CBL was conducted for 2 weeks, 50 minutes per week. The general characteristics of the subjects were obtained by frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation and the effects of CBL on problem solving ability and academic self-efficacy was tested using a paired t-test. The results of this study showed that nursing students' problem solving ability (t=-5.70, p<.001) and academic self-efficacy (t=-3.25, p<.002) improved after applying CBL compared to before applying it. We suggest the use of case-based learning as a strategy to improve problem-solving skills and academic self-efficacy in nursing education. In the future, follow-up research is needed to verify the effectiveness by developing and applying step-by-step clinical cases at an appropriate level according to the learning content of nursing major subjects by grade.
