The purpose of this study was to determine the mediating effects of stress associated with university life and the stress response of university students' resilience towards the negative emotions of health department students. As a research method, 284 students in the health department of Gyeongsangnamdo were surveyed. Data were analyzed in terms of frequency, correlation and regression using SPSS 22.0 program. The results of the study were as follows. The mean score of resilience towards negative emotions among students in the health department was 4.49, while stress associated with university life was 2.74. As a result of the correlation analysis among resilience towards negative emotion, stress response and stress associated with university life, the negative emotion was found to have a negative correlation with the stress associated with university life and the stress response. Resilience towards negative emotions was found to reduce the stress associated with university life by mitigating the stress response. Therefore, in this study, resilience appears to affect the stress associated with university life and the students' response to it. Therefore, for students in the health department who are exposed to stress associated with university life, the resilience towards negative emotions may be a way of alleviating the stress response.

This study was done to compare college adjustment and life stress of nursing students by grades in Korea. A total of 417 participants were recruited using a convenient sampling method. Data were collected using a self-reported questionnaire from October 15 to October 30, 2019. The results of the study showed that the college adjustment of nursing students was significantly higher in 4th grade (3.45 ± 0.53) than 1st grade (3.18 ± 0.61). Life stress was highest in first grade (0.91 ± 0.46), followed by fourth grade, second grade, and third grade. college adaptation and life stress by grade were inversely correlated in all grades. Therefore, it is necessary to check the difference between college adaptation and life stress according to grade level, and to prepare customized programs according to the grades, so that students can make a good college adjustment through stress management of nursing college students.

This study aimed to identify the correlation of stress-coping, humor sense, and adaptation to college of nursing students. Three hundred thirty eight subjects completed a structured questionnaire in June 2012. Data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 21.0 program. The mean scores were as follows; stress-coping 43.33, humor sense 72.18, and adaptation to college 68.02. It meant beyond the intermediate level. Significant differences were found between adaptation to college scores and general characteristics such as gender, academic year, family type, economic status, campus life satisfaction, relation with faculties, grade, and the relationship with the opposite gender. There was significant but weak correlation of stress-coping, humor sense, and adaptation to college. These results suggest that it is necessary to develop individualized education programs considering students' characteristics. Additionally, university adjustment related factors should be studied.

This study examined the effects of interpersonal relationship harmony and stress coping on the college adjustment among nursing students. The participants were 231. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression. Adjustment to college life significantly correlated with interpersonal relationship harmony and stress coping style. Interpersonal relationship harmony was significantly different according to year, satisfaction with nursing as a major, and academic achievement. Multiple regression analysis showed that interpersonal relationship harmony and stress coping(problem-focused, emotion-focused, hopeful thought) explained 23% of variance in adjustment to college life. The study findings suggest that intervention intended to promote nursing students' adjustment to college life should focus on improving interpersonal relationship harmony and stress coping.

To investigate the relationship between dental hygiene students' stress and college life satisfaction, 299 dental students and students in Gyeongnam area studied stress, stress response scale, and university life satisfaction. The results of systematic analysis according to the scale of stress response showed high values in fatigue, frustration, depression and anger. In addition, satisfaction with stress experienced negatively. Stress can give you a negative impact that can lead to serious illness. A systematic analysis using the stress response scale is expected to help reduce stress and improve college life satisfaction when the stress of college life is expected to increase maladjustment and dissatisfaction. We suggest the development and analysis of a stress response tool suitable for dental hygienists.

The results of the study showed that there were significant differences in college life adjustment (t=2.54, p=.012) according to gender (t=-3.55, p=.001), satisfaction of major (F=9.38, p<.001), satisfaction of interpersonal relationships (F=12.24, p<.001), and judging or perceiving (JP) among the MBTI preference pairs (t=2.54, p=.012). College life adjustment had a significant negative correlation with academic stress (r=-.56, p<.001). Factors that affected college life adjustment included academic stress (β=-.40, p<.001), satisfaction of interpersonal relationships (β=-.27, p<.001), and gender (β=.22, p=.002), and the explanatory power of these factors was 40.6%.

This study aims to understand family support and self-efficacy-mediated structural relation of college students' unemployment stress with their adaptation to school life. Findings of the research are summarized as follows. The study looked into how unemployment stress would directly affect self-efficacy, family support and adaptation to school life. It was found that the unemployment stress would have immediate negative effects on the self-efficacy, family support and adaptation to school life. In addition, the study noticed that with both family support and self-efficacy applied as mediating factors, unemployment stress influences college students' adaptation to school life indirectly and negatively. After the investigation on the immediate effects of family support in relation to the self-efficacy, the study indicated that family support has an immediate positive influence on the self-efficacy. In terms of self-efficacy, it appeared to affect adaptation to school life both positively and directly but, its indirect effects on the adaptation to school life was not confirmed. The study failed to find any direct influence of the family support on adaptation to school life but learned that the family support causes an indirect positive effect through self-efficacy, the mediating factor. In conclusion, the study suggests that adaptation to school life improves as long as unemployment stress decreases, while the family support and the self-efficacy are enhanced.
