The research design was mostly quantitative with a total of 16 journals(94%). Among them, there were 15 intervention journals(88%), 1 descriptive research journals(6%), and 1 mixed method journals(6%). The key topics in simulation practice were high-risk newborns with 9 journals(52%), respiratory distress syndrome in neonatal intensive care units appeared with 3 journals(18%), neonatal care with 3 journals(18%), normal newborn care with 1 journal(6%), and neonatal emergency airway care with 1 journals(6%). The main outcome variables were clinical performance, accounting for 5 journals(19.2%), followed by practice satisfaction 3 journals(11.5%). clinical competency and practice satisfaction were found to have significant positive effects. In conclusion, various research methods are required, such as expansion of nursing students' neonatal simulation practice education, repeated research, and qualitative research.

This study was conducted to identify factors influencing subjective happiness among nursing students. Participants consisted of 147 nursing students who were in the third and fourth years at two universities located in the Chungbuk and Kyungbuk provinces. Data were collected using questionnaires that looked at college-based stress, clinical-based stress, self-esteem, and subjective happiness from September 26 to October 29, 2016. Collected data were analyzed using the SPSS 22.0 statistics program with descriptive statistics, an independent t-test, analysis of variance (ANOVA), Scheffe's test, and hierarchical regression. The mean score for subjective happiness was 19.91 (range: 4 to 28). The mean for college-based stress was 2.92, and clinical-based stress was 2.61 (range: 1 to 5). The mean for self-esteem was 29.74 (range: 10 to 40). The significant predictors of subjective happiness in nursing students were self-esteem (p<.001), economic status (p=.002), interpersonal relationships (p=.001), and satisfaction with their major (p=.003). The explanatory power of variance was 68%, with self-esteem serving as the major predictor variable for subjective happiness. Therefore, we need various strategies that can enhance self-esteem, satisfaction with the major, and interpersonal relationships in order to improve nursing students' subjective happiness.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the levels of academic stress, sociality, and self-directed learning in nursing students, and to examine the relationship between the variables. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire from 208 students in the first and second years of a nursing program. This study was performed from December 5 to December 10, 2015. The data were analyzed with SPSS WIN 18.0 software (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). The results were as follows. The mean score of academic stress was $3.20{\pm}0.53$, that of sociality was $2.91{\pm}0.25$, and that of self-directed learning was $3.33{\pm}0.33$. There was a negative correlation between academic stress and self-directed learning (r=-0.16, p=0.024) and a positive correlation between sociality and self-directed learning (r=0.17, p=0.015). Higher academic stress correlated with lower self-directed learning, while higher sociality correlated with higher self-directed learning. The results indicate that the levels of academic stress, sociality, and self-directed learning in nursing students can influence the quality of nursing education. Thus, there is a need to develop programs to reduce academic stress and to help improve sociality and self-directed learning for nursing students.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors affecting quality of sleep among middle-aged male workers. The participants of this study were 127 middle-aged male workers working in Jeonnam region, and the data were collected through self-reported structured questionnaire. Descriptive statics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient and step wise multiple regression with SPSS/WIN 18.0 were used to analyze the data. According to the results, among the variables related to sleep quality, job stress showed a positive correlation, and job satisfaction showed a negative correlation. In addition, the factors such as job demands, occupational climate, job itself explained the quality of sleep at 24.5%. Based on the findings from the study, in order to improve the quality of sleep program for middle-aged male workers should be combined both strategies to increase job satisfaction and to decrease job stress. It is believed that the effort to reduce the amount of work needed to improve the quality of sleep will be necessary and the efforts among members of the organization will be necessary to establish a healthy workplace.

This study set out to investigate the burden and needs of family members of ICU(Intensive Care Unit) patients facing a crisis situation of a family member being hospitalized in ICU and check their connections. Data were collected from May to October 2013. The subjects include 93 main family caregivers of patients hospitalized in ICU at four general hospitals in the B area for three days or longer. Collected data were put to t-test, ANOVA, Scheff$\acute{e}$ test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient analysis with the SPSS WIN 20.0 program. As a result, the family members of ICU patients scored mean 3.56 points(out of five) on burden and mean 3.58 points(out of four) on needs, recording a moderate or higher level in both the areas. There was significant difference(F=3.463, p=.036) in burden according to the general characteristics with the number of days in the hospital. There was significant positive correlation(r=.332, p<.001) between their burden and needs. Those findings indicate that an active nursing intervention to reduce the burden of the families of ICU patients in a crisis situation and check their needs will be able to mitigate the family crisis and further have positive influences on the recovery of ICU patients.
