The purpose of this study was to identify the differences in medical care utilization by regional economic status using the National Hospital Discharge Patients Injury Survey. In order to determine economic status of each region, 234 cities and counties were categorized 5 quintiles according to their financial self-reliance ratio. The main results are as follows. First, low economic region has high age-standardized admission rate and standardized mortality rate. Second, of 16 major diseases, cerebrovascular and heart diseases, lung cancer, and stomach cancer reported greater changes in standardized mortality rate by regional economic status. Third, the rate of admission via emergency room in low economic region is higher than that of high economic region. Lastly, in the major illnesses, lower economic status led to an increase in average length of stay. Therefore, In order to bridge the gap in health inequality across regions, a regional medical policy tailored for each region and characteristics of the economic status should be established.

This study examines the relationships among ego resilience, empathic ability, and interpersonal relationship ability in nursing students. Data were collected through a self-reported questionnaire from November 2 to December 11, 2015. The subjects consisted of 299 nursing students who were selected using a convenience sampling method. Stepwise multiple regression revealed that ego resilience (${\beta}=.488$, p<.001) and empathic ability (${\beta}=.378$, p<.001) were significant predictors and accounted for 47.2% of interpersonal relationship ability. It is meaningful that ego resilience affects interpersonal relationship ability. Therefore, ego resilience and empathic ability need to be increased by efficient management and intervention to facilitate interpersonal relationship ability in nursing students.

The purpose of this study aims to be used as base data of a policy which forms university students' appropriate behavior for the prevention of infection by analyzing some university students' prevention awareness of new type of infection. A self-administered questionnaire survey about students' seriousness, sensitivity, self-efficacy, and prevention behavior intent of new infection, was conducted in an university located in Gyeonbuk from April. 30th to May. 11th, 2018. Analyzing factors which affect the prevention behavior intent of infection with controlled general factor and health behavior, the prevention behavior intent was increased by ${\beta}=.125$ as seriousness increases and ${\beta}=.709$ as self-efficacy increases in Model 2, final model. However, sensitivity has no significant effect on the prevention behavior intent. Originally sensitivity has to be a significant factor regarding to the prevention behavior intent of new infection. But the result that sensitivity has no influence at all, shows that the students are insensitive to new diseases as they don't fear or sense danger of new infection. Therefore, a disease control policy which helps to increase sensitivity has to be established.
