The purpose of this study was to investigate stresses from job, patients and guardians experienced by general hospital nurses caring for elderly patients and their stress coping methods. For this study, data were collected from 280 nurses employed at general hospitals with the capacity of more than 400 beds which were located in Seoul. Frequency analysis, t-test and one-way ANOVA were utilized to analyze the data and Scheffe test was used to conduct post-hoc tests. This study found that, of the general hospital nurses' three types of stresses, stress from guardians was the most serious one, followed by stress from patients and stress from job; and that, of the six coping methods utilized by the general hospital nurses, social support was the most-utilized one, followed by problem-focused coping strategy, positive perspective, tension relaxation, indifference and hopeful perspective. Based on these findings, follow-up studies were suggested to develop the hospital nurses' abilities to cope with the ever-changing complex circumstances for the elderly patients.

The main purpose of this study is to develop and empirically validate the research model that examines the relationship between technostress and employees' continuance commitment at their jobs. In addition, the moderating effects of involvement facilitation and technical support provision were examined as enhancing factors on the relationship among the proposed constructs. The data from 179 employees at various organizations were analyzed to test proposed hypotheses. Results show that all proposed hypotheses were supported. This study contributes to IS community in terms of theoretically research framework as well as understanding of technostress at a workplace.

This study aimed to develop a model to explain the factors influencing father's parenting stress, and to verify the appropriateness of the model. The participants included 1609 fathers with a 5-year old. The study used 2012 Panel Study of Korean Children (PSKC) by the Korea Institute of Child Care and Education (KICCE), and analyzed with SPSS and AMOS programs. The analysis showed that first, father's income and parental efficacy were negatively related with parenting stress and father's depression and marital conflict were positively related with parenting stress. Second, father's parenting stress was directly and indirectly impacted by parental efficacy and their child's temperament. These results suggest that father education are needed for promoting positive paternal mental health and parental efficacy, to reduce parenting stress of fathers.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the reliability and the validity of the Korean Occupational Stress Scale(KOSS) in occupational therapists. The data were collected from 214 occupational therapists by using the Korean Occupational Stress Scale. The gathered data were conducted the factor analyses and validation process to ascertain the validity. The results of this study suggested that to estimate occupational stress of occupational therapist, modified version of the KOSS which was consist of eight subscales might be more an appropriate measurement scale than the original version of the KOSS which was composed of seven subscales. Eight subscales of the scale were occupational climate, organizational system, insufficient job control, lack of reward, job demand, interpersonal conflict, job ability and job insecurity, and out of these, job ability was newly added for occupational therapist. Also the results indicated that Cronbach's alpha score of this measurement tool was 0.84, and it means that internal consistency of this scale has good reliability, and the number of questions are also valid. This study has significance to suggest necessary psychometric characteristics of the occupational stress scale for job stress study in occupational therapist.

본 연구는 청소년 스트레스 호르몬 변화를 보기위한 연구로 컬러 컨설팅 환경개선에 따른 스트레스 호르몬 변화를 연구하였다. 청소년 스트레스 연구들에 따르면, 아동이나 청소년도 성인만큼 스트레스를 경험하고 있고 청소년들의 스트레스는 정서적 부적응과 신체적 건강에도 영향을 미친다. 스트레스가 지속되면 부신피질에서 스테로이드 호르몬인 코티솔도 분비하는 근거를 통해 환경변화로 생긴 코티솔 분비를 측정하였다. 코티솔 분비를 통한 스트레스 반응 정도 측정은 침해성을 최소화하기 위한 간편한 방법인 타액검사로 실시하였으며 비 침습적인 방법으로 특별한 장비나 도움이 없이 수집할 수 있었고 부작용이 적은 효율적 검사였다. 연구 결과 전체 학생(46명)의 코티솔은 환경개선 사전($0.121{\pm}0.087{\mu}g/dL$)에 비해 사후($0.096{\pm}0.058{\mu}g/dL$)에 감소하였고(t=1.718, p=.093) 중고등학생(36명)의 코디솔은 사전($0.137{\pm}0.092{\mu}g/dL$)에 비해 사후($0.104{\pm}0.062{\mu}g/dL$)에 감소하였으며, 유의수준 10%에서 통계적으로도 유의미한 차이를 보였다(t=1.750, p=.089). 따라서 환경 개선 전에 비해 환경 개선 후 청소년들의 스트레스가 감소되었음을 알 수 있다. 하지만 초등학생(10명)의 코티솔은 사전($0.064{\pm}0.023{\mu}g/dL$)에 비해 사후($0.065{\pm}0.016{\mu}g/dL$)에 변화를 보이지 않아, 유의수준 5%에서 통계적으로 유의미한 변화는 나타나지 않았다(t=-0.121, p=0.906). 따라서 후두엽이 발달하는 중학생 시기는 환경 변화에 민감하며 색채 자극에 크게 영향을 미치는 시기인 만큼 본 연구에서 환경전후로 검사한 코티솔 분비의 측정값도 감소함을 볼 수 있었다. 하지만 본 연구는 환경 변화에 코티솔 분비량에 유의미한 변화를 나타내지 않은 초등학생들은 스트레스 호르몬 변화에는 차이가 없었지만 환경변화의 자극이 없었다고 볼 수는 없다.
