The collected data were analyzed using Independent t-test, One-way ANOVA, and Multiple regression. The research results indicated that the knowledge(r=.15, p=.019) and risk perception(r=.13, p=.036) of nursing students regarding COVID-19 had a positive correlation with COVID-19 preventive behaviors. The factor that impacted the COVID-19 preventive behaviors of the subjects was COVID-19 knowledge, which had an explanatory power of 4%. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an educational intervention program that enables nursing students to obtain the correct knowledge regarding COVID-19 and improves preventive behaviors.

Methods: A sample of 199 students in Grades 3 to 6 and their parents participated in the study. Measures were used to assess injury prevention behaviors, intentions, and parental influence. The data were analyzed using logistic regression analysis. Results: The findings showed that a stronger intention toward injury prevention behavior, living in an urban area, and higher involvement of parent's to prevent injuries were significantly associated with higher levels of injury prevention behaviors among the children. Conclusion: This study highlights the importance of intention, parental influence, and urban residence in promoting injury prevention behaviors among school-age children. The findings suggest the need for tailored interventions targeting these factors to promote prevention of injuries among children. Further research is needed to develop comprehensive strategies to prevent injuries in this population.

Methods: The design of this study was a randomized controlled trial. Data were collected from April 1 to April 14, 2022. Nurses suffering from headaches were recruited from a hospital in a city. Twenty nurses were assigned to the experimental group and 20 nurses to the control group. The experimental group received auricular acupressure for 2 weeks, and the control group was put on the waiting list. Results: Auricular acupressure reduced headache over 2 weeks compared to the control group. Auricular acupressure reduced the effect of headache on daily activities compared to control group. Headache effect on daily activities in the control group did not change. Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, it is suggested to repeat the study using various combinations of acupressure points other than the acupressure points used in this study or to use participants other than nurses.
