The purpose of this study is to examine factors influencing adolescents' suicidal ideation and provide foundational data to reduce adolescents' suicidal ideation and prevent their suicide based on that. According to the research results, there was no significant difference found in demographic characteristics. And depression, stress, and social support exerted significant influence on suicidal ideation. As depression and stress became higher, suicidal ideation increased. When other factors were controlled, suicidal ideation increased if social support was provided less. Based on the study results, the study has made political suggestions as follows: first, regarding the family support system, it is needed to adopt institutional approaches so that they can participate in many different types of education to improve relationship between parents and children. Second, about the school support system, it is necessary to develop programs to form teacher and peer support relations and build the friend support resource system.

This study is to investigate the effect of early childhood teachers' resilience and social support on job stress. The degree of resilience, social support, and job stress was measured for 250 teachers of early childhood education institutions located in City I, and the relationship and relative influence were analyzed. For data processing, correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis were performed using the SPSS 18.0 program. As a result, first, early childhood teachers' resilience and social support were measured at a slightly higher level than average, and job stress at a slightly lower level. Second, the resilience and social support of early childhood teachers had a positive relationship, and the resilience and social support had a negative correlation with job stress. Third, as a result of analyzing the relative influence of early childhood teachers' resilience and social support on job stress, 83% explained that organizational environmental factors, material support, and behavioral factors affect job stress. These results suggest that it is most important to provide resilience and social support that can affect the reduction of job stress of in-service teachers.

This study is a correlational research to identify the factors influencing the infertility-related quality of life of infertile women. The participants included 131 infertile women who visited the department of obstetrics and gynecology of a general hospital in C city for infertility treatment. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire between May 11 and July 31, 2020. The collected data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Schéffe test, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and simultaneous multiple regression using SPSS 18.0 program. The degree of infertility-related quality of life was 3.73±0.65. Infertility-related quality of life had a significant correlation with marital intimacy (r=.37, p<.001), spousal support (r=.38, p<.001), social support (r=.43, p<.001), infertility stress (r=-.74, p<.001) and depression(r=-.54, p<.001). Multiple regression analysis showed that infertility stress (β=-.58, p<.001), depression (β=-.28, p<.001), and social support (β=.16, p=.011) had significant effects on the infertility-related quality of life in infertile women, These variables explained 64.0% of the infertility-related quality of life in infertile women. The main variables affecting infertility-related quality of life were found to be infertility stress, depression, and social support. Therefore, to improve the infertility-related quality of life of infertile women, hospitals should develop an intervention program that can reduce fertility stress and depression and improve social support. Studies should also be conducted to confirm these effects. Depression
