The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of an ESP module program which combines Keller's ARCS model for the $1^{st}$ grade nursing students. Students' learning motivation and academic achievement were compared between an intervention group and a control group and their perception and subjective effects on the module program were identified. Quantitative data showed that the overall level of learning motivation in the intervention group was significantly higher than that in the control group (t=2.391, p=.019). No significant difference was found on the level of academic achievement between two groups (t=0.116, p=.098). Contents analysis on the qualitative data showed that ESP module program was interesting, effective, helpful for understanding clinical settings, and giving confidence and satisfaction. According to the result, it is assumed that the ESP module program which combines ARCS model can be effective in motivating the $1^{st}$ grade nursing students to learn nursing contents and English.

본 연구의 목적은 한국의 간호사들이 행하는 간호중재를 규명하는 것이다. 연구대상은 한국의 2 병원에서 일하는 수 간호사와 평 간호사를 포함한 443면의 간호사이며, 연구도구는 Iowa Intervention Project Team 이 개발한 336 문항의 5점 척도로 이루어진 "간호중재"설문지를 사용하였다. 5점 척도는 다음과 같다 : (a) 거의 행하지 않는다 : (b) 거의 한달에 한번 행한다 : (c) 거의 일주일에 한 번 행한다 : (d) 거의 하루에 한 번 행한다 : (e) 하루에 여러 번 행한다. 한국자료를 위해 설문지는 본 연구자에 의해 한글로 번역되었고, Back-translation을 이용하여 한글로 번역한 설문지는 다시 bilingual nurse에 의해 영어로 옮겨졌고, 마지막으로 영어로 옮겨진 설문지를 원래의 영문으로 된 설문지와 비교한 후에(Equivalence Test) 수정${\cdot}$보완하여 사용하였다. 한국 간호사들은 336 간호중재 모두를 행하고 있으며, 21개의 간호중재가 적어도 하루에 한 번 정도는 이루어지고 있었다. 간호사들은 "생리적 : 복합영역"에 속하는 간호중재를 가장 빈번하게 행하였고, 이 중에서 "비경구적 투약"은 일주일에 거의 11번 정도로 가장 많이 행하여졌다. 가장 적게 행하는 간호중재는 "동물이용요법"이었다. 간호사들은 교육을 많이 받을수록, 임상경험이 많을수록 더 많은 간호중재를 빈번하게 행했다. 특히, 석사학위를 받은 간호사는 "행위 영역"에 속한 간호중재를 더 많이 행했는 데, 예를 들면 "적극적 경청", "적응 증진", "의사결정지지"등이다. 또한 4년제 대학을 졸업한 간호사들은 "생리적 : 복합영역"에 속한 간호중재들을 전문대학을 졸업한 간호사보다 더 많이 행했는 데, 예를 들면, "뇌부종 관리", "반사 장애 관리", "기구를 사용한 호흡"등이다. 10년 이상의 경험을 가진 간호사들은 "행위 영역"에 속한 간호중재를 임상 경험이 1년 미만이거나 또는 1-5년 사이의 경험을 가진 간호사보다 더 많이 행했는 데, 예를 들면, "죄책감 극복 증진", "진실 말하기"등이다. 또한 6-10년 사이의 임상경험을 가진 간호사들은 "자가 간호영역"에 속한 "옷 입히기", "두발 간호", "구강건강 유지" 등을 임상경험이 1년 미만인 간호사들보다 더 빈번하게 행했다. 이 연구는 간호중재 규명이 간호원가 산출을 위한 연구와, 간호의 질 향상을 위한 연구, 간호지식 탐구를 위한 연구에 공헌할 것을 기대한다.

With a rapidly increasing number of foreign patients in Korea, it is necessary to manage and enhance the quality of nursing care for foreign inpatients through the promotion of studies on practical nursing care experience. This study is a qualitative study conducted to understand and describe the care experiences of nurses responsible for non-English speaking foreign inpatients. There were 10 nurses with a clinical career of more than two years included in this study for analysis. Data were collected through in-depth individual interviews and analyzed using qualitative content analysis. Five themes emerged from the analysis. 'Aware of cultural differences', 'establish trusting relationships through all my heart', 'additional nursing task', 'empathy for genuine nursing', 'sorriness and relieved'. The results of this study provided the understanding on the experiences of nurses, who do not speak English, but still responsible for providing care to foreign inpatients. Despite the language barrier, cultural differences, and work overload, nurses caring for foreign patients struggled with authenticity in nursing. On the other hand, as there was a lack of system resources, such as manuals and training materials in various languages other than English, institutions should put forth greater effort and resources to be prepared to care for foreign inpatients.

This study examined the multicultural awareness, cultural sensitivity, and characteristics of multicultural experiences affecting the intercultural communication skills among Korean nursing students. The study participants were a total of 353 nursing students who had completed one or more clinical practice courses and were in 1 University and 2 Colleges. A self-assessment instrument was used. The descriptive statistics, t-test, one way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and simple and multiple regression were used to analyze the data. Statistically significant differences in the intercultural communication skill were observed in multicultural education, foreign friends, proficiency in English, stay in foreign countries, and length of stay in foreign countries. The intercultural communication skills was correlated with both multicultural awareness and cultural sensitivity. Multiple regression analysis showed that the multi-cultural awareness, multi-cultural education, and proficiency in English could explain 41.3% of the variances for the intercultural communication skill. Simple regression analysis also showed that the length of stay in foreign countries explained 2.5% of the intercultural communication skill among nursing students, who had stayed in foreign countries. Therefore, nursing educators should improve their multi-cultural awareness and develop various multi-cultural education programs, consider living abroad, and improve their language proficiency to strengthen nursing students' intercultural communication skill.

Purpose: The obesity prevention and management program led by public health centers are important in the community. This study aims to identify the current status of obesity prevention and management programs at public health centers and perceptions regarding facilitators and barriers when implementing programs. Methods: This study used a concurrent mixed methods design. A survey was conducted to investigate the current status and infrastructure of the obesity prevention and management program at eighty-three public health centers nationwide. Nine program managers and six local residents with experience in the program were interviewed by using a semi-structured questionnaires. Results: Most of the infrastructure facilities for the program were inadequate, and insufficient budgets and lack of professional staff were identified as barriers. Facilitators included diversification of program delivery methods, operator competence, and visible outcomes and rewards. For the effectiveness of the program, it is vital to have adequate assistants, a sufficient budget, various promotional methods, and connections with various institutions in the community. On this basis, it is acknowledged that the public health center serves as a platform for preventing and managing obesity in the community. Conclusion: It is expected that infrastructure improvements in public health centers and the link with community resources are needed. In addition, there is an urgent need to set standards for obesity prevention and management programs implemented in public health centers to 'resolve regional disparities'.
