본 연구의 목적은 유방자가검진(BSE)의 지식정도, 훈련도, 숙련도 및 빈도와의 관계를 파악하고, BSE 빈도를 가장 잘 예측하는 변수를 결정하기 위함이다. 연구대상자는 미국에 이민 온 40세-60세 사이의 중년 여성 58명으로 와싱톤주의 시애틀과 타코마 지역에 거주하고 있었다. 연구도구는 미국암협회의 BSE 안내책자를 기초로 하여 개발하였다. 자료는 자가보고형 질문지를 이용하여 한국교회 4곳으로부터 연구의 취지를 설명하고 연구대상자들의 연구동의를 얻은 후 우편으로 질문지를 회수하였다. 자료수집 기간은 2000년 3월 6일부터 2000년 5월13일이었으며. 질문지 회수율은 77%이었다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS를 이용하여 Frequency, Percentage, Pearson correlation, Regression analysis로 분석하였다. 연구 결과는 주요 변수사이의 관련성에서 그 이전연구 결과와 대개 일치하였다. 대상자의 BSE 빈도는 년간 10회-12회 실행이 21.08%이였고, 전혀 실행하지 않는 정도가 4.80%를 차지했다. BSE 빈도와 관련변수와의 상관관계에서 나이는 BSE 빈도와 역상관 관계(r=-.289, p=.038)를 나타냈고, BSE 훈련에 대한 지도(r=0521, p=.000). BSE 지식에 대한 기술(r=.573, p=.000) 및 BSE 숙련도(R=.694 P=.000)는 BSE 빈도와 정상관 관계를 보였다. 회귀분석 결과는 BSE 빈도의 가장 유의한 예측변수로서 BSE 지식에 대한 기술(beta=.5813. p=.003)로 지지되었다. 이 연구의 의의는 지역사회간호사가 이민 온 한국 중년여성들의 BSE실행에 대한 이해를 높임으로 유방암의 조기발견에 대한 예방적 행위를 증진시키는 데 유용한 기초 자료로 제공될 것이다.

Purpose: To identify Korean versions of self-reported sleep questionnaires for cross-cultural research and practice on sleep disturbance, we searched self-reported sleep questionnaires which have been developed to measure general sleep patterns. They should be qualitative, easy to take permission, do not obligate to pay, do not need any skill or professional help for scoring and have been reported high reliability and validity. Methods: General Sleep Disturbance Scale (GSDS), Leeds Sleep Evaluation Questionnaire (LSEQ), and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were identified based on all criteria. Korean version of GSDS, LSEQ, and PSQI were developed according to the methods combined the guidelines for the process of cross-cultural adaptation of self-reported measures with decentering method. Results: Three Korean versions of self-reported sleep questionnaires were suitable for epidemiological study. They are not full length and easy to read. It requires less than 10 minutes for each subject to complete as well as for researchers to score. Conclusion: Psychometric analysis study is necessary to evaluate the reliability and validity of those Korean versions of self-reported sleep questionnaires.

Purpose of this study was to develop a self-care program for patients with asthma and test its effects on self-efficacy, compliance, Quality of Life. One group pretest and posttest design was used to test the effects of the intervention. Sixteen asthma patients were recruited conveniently from C university hospital. Date were collected from February 1st to Spring 30th, 2011. Self-care program was composed asthma related education and demonstration of usage of MID & PEFR. The data were analyzed using Wilcoxon signed Rank test by SPSS 18.0. There was a significant increased in self-efficacy(Z=-3.26, p=.001), compliance(Z=-3.52, p<.001), QOL(Z=-3.41, p=.001). Based on data, we recommened the refinement of the intervention in the following areas for future studies: duration, research design, sample size.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of patient controlled analgesia(PCA) convergence education on postoperative pain management in spinal surgery patients. Sixty spinal surgery patients were included. For the experimental group(n=30), PCA education using video, booklet, and a PCA model practice was provided before surgery. The data were collected using questionnaire and were analyzed using descriptive statistics, ${\chi}^2-test$, Fisher's exact test, t-test and repeated measures ANOVA. PCA knowledge-attitude, PCA satisfaction and pain control satisfaction were higher in the experimental group than the control group(p<.001; p=.001; p<.001). Postoperative pain and frequency of additional analgesia use of the experimental group were significantly lower than those of the control group(p<.001; p=.001). This findings showed that the convergence PCA education of audiovisual aids with PCA practice training could be effective pain management intervention in patients undergoing spinal surgery. These apply to development of convergence nursing interventions in clinical practice.

This study was conducted to identify the factors affecting nursing students' adjustment to college life. 364 students from six different nursing colleges were recruited into the study. The data were collected using questionnaires about bullying, peer support, ego-resilience and adjustment to college life and were analyzed using IBM SPSS 19.0 program. Data were collected from March 3rd, 2014 to December 12th, 2015. The results indicated that bullying(r=-.24, p<.001) had a significant negative association with nursing college adaptation. And adjustment to college life was positively correlated with peer support(r=.38, p<.001) and ego-resilience(r=.69, p<.001). The significant predictors of adjustment to college life were ego-resilience (F=334.33, p<.001), peer support(F=60.86, p<.001) and bullying(F=22.03, p<.001), explaining 47% of the variance. Based on the study results, we suggest that it is necessary to develop and apply the educational strategy to improve the peer support and ego-resilience for the adjustment to college life.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate measurement properties of self-report questionnaires for studies published in Korean nursing journals. Methods: Of 424 Korean nursing articles initially identified, 168 articles met the inclusion criteria. The methodological quality of the measurements used in the studies and interpretability were assessed using the COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement INstruments (COSMIN) checklist. It consists of items on internal consistency, reliability, measurement error, content validity, construct validity including structural validity, hypothesis testing, cross-cultural validity, and criterion validity, and responsiveness. For each item of the COSMIN checklist, measurement properties are rated on a four-point scale: excellent, good, fair, and poor. Each measurement property is scored with worst score counts. Results: All articles used the classical test theory for measurement properties. Internal consistency (72.6%), construct validity (56.5%), and content validity (38.2%) were most frequently reported properties being rated as 'excellent' by COSMIN checklist, whereas other measurement properties were rarely reported. Conclusion: A systematic review of measurement properties including interpretability of most instruments warrants further research and nursing-focused checklists assessing measurement properties should be developed to facilitate intervention outcomes across Korean studies.
