This study was conducted to review and analyze the academic-related satisfaction intervention programs for Korean nursing students and to provide evidence-based data. The data included in the meta-analysis were 25 studies published from 2001 to July 2018, and the design of the study consisted of 1 randomized controlled trial and 24 non-randomized controlled trials. The study subjects were nursing students from 1st to 4th grade, and the intervention program was conducted in theoretical and practical classes. The sample size was 1182 (mean: 47.3) in the experimental group and 1137 in the control group (mean: 45.5). The intervention program consisted of 1~16 weeks/1~16 sessions/7~240 minutes per session. Dependent variables were as follows: major satisfaction, learning satisfaction, satisfaction with the classroom practice, and satisfaction with the clinical practice. Satisfaction with the classroom practice (Hedges' g=0.876[95% CI: 0.405, 1.346]), satisfaction with the clinical practice (Hedges' g=0.515[95% CI: 0.312, 0.718]), and overall academic-related satisfaction (Hedges' g=0.630[95% CI: 0.371, 0.889]) were statistically significant and above intermediate levels in the meta-analysis. The study results are significant in that the objective results were confirmed by integrating the previous studies dealing with the academic-related satisfaction intervention program of nursing students.

Objective : This study aimed to assess the effects of occupation-based lifestyle intervention programs on older adults in the local community. Methods : Nine community-dwelling older individuals participated in this study using a one-group pre-post design. The occupation-based lifestyle intervention program consisted of 12 group sessions, and one individual session was conducted for seven weeks. Occupational balance, activity occupancy, activity participation, depression, health-related quality of life, and program satisfaction were assessed. Results : The average attendance rate of the nine participants was 10.11 (SD=1.36). Overall occupational balance (p=.012), activity participation status (p=.008), performance (p=.012), and satisfaction with activity participation (p=.008) were increased. Furthermore, the results showed changes in leisure time (p=.008) and rest time (p=.008). Finally, there were some improvements in the overall health-related quality of life (p=.034) and depression scores (p=.012). Conclusions : Occupation-based lifestyle intervention programs positively affected occupational balance, activity occupancy, activity participation, depression, and health-related quality of life in community-dwelling older adults. This research suggests promising benefits and feasibility of the program for community-dwelling older adults.

The purpose of this study is to develop a hospice intervention program and present basic study data using a method of Meta analysis. Fifteen theses from 2002 to 2017 were collected from the on-line database at Korean Education and Research Information Service and other journals related hospice. Main keywords were 'hospice' and intervention'. The selected 15 theses were analyzed with publication bias, outcome of effect size, non-overlap percentage(U3), 95% confidence intervals and homogeneity. The result of the study is summarized as follows; Publication bias was stable and the effect size of hospice program was significant at. 99. The effective and significant regulation effects were publication years with 2003 to 2007(ES=1.24), publication types with journals(ES=1.33), majors with nursing sciences(ES=1.02), ages with 29 to 30(ES=1.09), later session(ES=1.06) and aroma(ES=1.12). Accordingly, this thesis has its meaning in that it used a Meta-analysis to analyze domestic theses of hospice intervention programs for the first time in Korea. This thesis will prodide specific guidance to researchers trying to develop and utilize hospice intervention programs resulting in helpful usages in professional hospice institutions with implementations of programs.

This study was conducted to synthesize sexual violence prevention programs by systematic review and to establish an effective program for its prevention. Existing studies of domestic sexual violence prevention programs were retrieved using RISS, KISS, and NDSL from 2000 until August 2018. Of 1125 studies identified, 22 met the inclusion criteria. Study participants were children to adults and students with disabilities. The methods of intervention varied according to the characteristics of the participants and included lectures, discussions, role plays, puppet shows, songs and campaigns. The contents of the intervention were related to the concepts of sexual violence, sexual violence coping, sexual harassment, and gender equality, while the main variables influencing the results of intervention were sexual knowledge, sexual attitude, sexual violence knowledge, sexual violence coping and gender equality consciousness. In most of the studies was effective. However, for some studies, sexual awareness and sexual attitude were not significant influencing factors. Future sexual violence prevention programs should include gender equality and bystander concepts, that can recognize social responsibility for sexual violence.

The purpose of this study identified the effectiveness of the existent interventions, which had been applied to the teens in multicultural families in South Korea. Totally 29 relevant studies, including dissertations and published articles, published from 2008 to 2014, were systematically searched and analyzed through meta-analytic method. The study results revealed the specific conditions which made the intervention more effective for the teens in multicultural families. Specifically, the program could be most effective when the program had a social adaptation intervention type as well as aimed to middle school students as a target population. Also, the program could be most effective when the program had lower than 8 sessions, run 3-5 times a week, and had from 21 to 30 participants in one intervention group. In addition, current existing programs showed higher effect sizes on outcomes focusing on relationships rather than on those focusing on psychological problems. This study is theoretically meaningful in terms of quantitatively synthesizing the existing intervention programs for the teens in multicultural families. In addition, we expect that this study would practically contribute to develop evidence-based programs for those teens in multicultural families.
