This ethnography was done to understand the daily lives and life values of the experience of middle-aged women with Hwabyung. It also focused on how they reorganized their lives to escape their crisis and how they continued living going forward. The participants were 5 middle-aged women with Hwabyung and 2 family members in K city. Data were collected from iterative fieldwork through in-depth interviews and participant observations. Data were analyzed using text analysis and taxonomic method. The reorganization of the everyday lives of participants with Hwabyung started from the perception of family values and the crisis of those values failing. The participants' everyday lives were reconstructed by changing their perspectives on life, and renewing their family relationships.

Purpose: The purpose of this paper was to describe the attributes of nursing with humor based on an integrative review and to present basic information for developing humor intervention programs for children. Methods: Using combinations of the terms 'nursing' and 'humor' as key words, the researchers searched four electronic databases to relevant identify studies. Thirteen studies were selected through full text screening of related research published in academic journals from January 1993 to April 2013. Results: Through in-depth discussion and investigation of the relevant literature, three components emerged; 1) using instruments of coping for stress relief, 2) symptoms relief through pleasant feeling, and 3) job satisfaction and work improvement of nurse using humor. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that humor is valuable as a nursing intervention for children and the possibility of bringing about positive results in nursing care if nurses utilize the sense of humor as fully as they can. Therefore, it is critical for nurses to develop a diversity of humor interventions for children as well as measurements to test quality and quantity of humor used in clinical pediatric settings.

안전교육을 위한 방법으로 체험교육은 일반 국민들이 사고예방법이나 사고발생시 올바른 대처방법을 체험하게 함으로서 스스로를 안전하게 지킬 수 있는 능력을 습득하는데 매우효과적인 중재전략이다(강신광, 2003: 142-143 전세중, 2008). 또한 학생들을 대상으로 소방안전교육을 실시하고 있지만 교과서에 수록되어 있는 그림이나 이론 위주의 주입식 교육이 주를 이루고 있어 혼란스러운 응급 상황에서 올바르게 대응하기 위해서는 반드시 실제와 같은 가상 상황에서 반복적인 훈련을 통하여 체험할 수 있어야 한다(김현기, 2006 전세중, 2008). 그리하여 김태환(2001: 83-117)은 국민의 안전의식의 향상을 위한 안전 개선에는 주민 스스로가 안전사고에 대한 예방과 유사시 긴급대응을 할 수 있도록 안전에 대한 적극적이고 능동적인 체험교육을 위한 교육시설이 필요하다고 하였다. 안전체험관 설립을 위한 시민의식 조사 연구(김태환, 2001: 83-117)에서도 대부분의 응답자들은 안전사고 발생에 대한 불안감을 가지고 있으나 대처요령을 잘 모르고 있다고 함으로서, 주입식 안전교육의 한계를 극복하고 일반인의 안전의식 결여를 해결하기 위한 체험식 교육을 시행할 수 있는 재난안전체험관의 설립이 시급하다고 주장하였다. 재난발생시 위기상황에서 적용할 수 있는 현장 체험식 안전교육이 필요하다는 사회적 요구에 따라 2003년 최초로 안전종합체험관 형태의 서울시민안전체험관이 개관되었다. 이를 계기로 여러 지방자치 단체에서도 현장과 유사한 교육상황을 제공할 수 있는 안전체험교육의 필요성을 절감하고 잇달아 안전체험관을 설립하여 운영하고 있다.

This study was aimed at looking into and understanding child-rearing experience of mothers from multicultural families based on the grounded theory, one of the qualitative research methods. For this, twelve mothers from multicultural families were selected and data were collected through in-depth interviews with them and then analyzed through the open coding, axial coding and selective coding. The analysis suggested that main phenomena mothers from multicultural families experienced are the conflict of child-rearing and educational crisis, and the confused identity of parenting. These main phenomena had much to do with contextual factors such as economic hardship, lower level of the Korean language, cultural differences, prejudices and ignorance. The severeness of conflict and crisis of child-rearing and the intensity of identity confusion for parenting depended on arbitral conditions such as family bonds, positive expectation for the future of their children, and the help of supportive systems. Mothers were dealing with difficulties of child-rearing through action and interaction of resignation and denial, introspection and the intention to overcome difficulties, and the capacity building. As a result, mothers from multicultural families acknowledged that there is a limit to their position and roles they can play and tried to change in order to resolve problems related to their children, positioning themselves for more active lives in Korean society. Through discussion based on the findings of the study, this study can help better understand child-rearing experience of mothers from multicultural families and suggest several directions for future researches on multicultural families.

Methods: A correlation survey study was conducted on HIV/AIDS patients age ranging from 20 to 70 years to investigate the relationship between their SWB and spiritual needs. Results: 1. Average scores of HIV/AIDS patients' related to SWB were found to be higher than the intermediate level: 54.59 in SWB; more specifically, 27.78 in existential well-being and 26.80 in religious well-being. 2. Average score of for HIV/AIDS patients' spiritual needs was 108.67: More specifically, 37.80 in the needs of love and interest, 42.35 in the needs of seeking meanings and purposes, and 28.51 in the needs of wanting to be forgiven. 3. Concerning the correlation between SWB and spiritual needs, the total SWB and total spiritual needs of HIV/AIDS patients' showed a weak positive correlation (r=0.344, P=0.013). Conclusion: The result of the study showed that SWB and spiritual needs of HIV/AIDS patients' are higher than the average scores, and these two parameters have a weak positive correlation, indicating that HIV/AIDS patients have strong spiritual needs of seeking meanings and purposes.

The opening of public data has been perceived as a critical factor in deciding a country's rise or fall. Since the global economic crisis, countries around the globe have expanded the supply of public data as a new growth engine to create significant economic effects. As a result, there has been a rising demand for a study on the influence of public data in the private sectors. This study attempted to achieve the following objectives. First, the effects of independent variables-system quality, information quality, information security, social influence, innovation and assistance by the public organization- on the intention to use the public data was examined. Second, the effects of the mediating variables - Perceived Ease of Use (PEU) and Perceived Usefulness (PU) - on the independent variables and intention to use (dependent variable) were investigated. Third, after selecting utilization type, frequency of public data usage and frequency of occupational & e-government service usage as moderating variables, their effects on the relationship between the independent variables and dependent variable (intention to use them in the private sector) were studied. It is expected that the study results would be useful in developing strategies aimed to utilize public data in the private sectors.
