This study examined the factors influencing aging anxiety in university students. The participants were 239 nursing students from one university in Seoul. Data were collected from September to December in 2014 and analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression. The average score for aging-anxiety was 2.94, for knowledge about the elderly 18.92, for attitude toward the elderly 65.5, for participants' supporting awareness of old parents 4.05, and for self-esteem 3.07. There were negative correlations between aging anxiety, attitude toward the elderly, supporting awareness of old parents, and self-esteem. Aging-anxiety was significantly influenced by age, gender, living with grandparents, attitude toward the elderly, supporting awareness of old parents, and self-esteem. In view of the results of this study, one of the strategic ways to help college students reduce aging anxiety is to provide an opportunity to participate in activities that they can experience positive relationship with elderly.

College students face serious difficulties while seeking jobs, leading to a high degree of stress, which is thought to affect their attitude towards smoking. The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship between hardiness, job-seeking stress, and the attitude towards smoking among students, and to further identify the factors influencing smoking attitude. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire administered to 145 students. Data analysis was performed using the SPSS program, t-test, ANOVA, Kruskal Wallis test, Pearson's Correlation Coefficients, and hierarchical multiple regression analysis. Smokers constituted 22.1% of the sample. The study showed that smoking attitudes varied according to the smoking status (H=28.26, p<.001). The smoking attitude was seen to be desirable in the high group (t=-3.27, p=.001) and low job-seeking stress group (t=4.40, p<.001). There was a positive correlation between hardiness and smoking attitude (r=.18, p=.028). There was a negative correlation between job-seeking stress and smoking attitude (r=-.28, p=.001). Also, the factors affecting the smoking attitude were non-smoker respondent (β=.50, p<.001), job-seeking stress (β=-.23, p=.015), former smoker respondent (β=.22, p=.016) and the explanatory power was 24.3%. Therefore, school and health public center counseling and employment support programs need to help students manage and cope with stressful situations to change their attitude towards smoking in a desirable direction.

본 연구는 한국의 간호학생들이 HIV-Disease 대상자를 간호하려는 의도정도와 이를 설명하고 나아가 예견할 수 있는 요인으로 학생들의 인식과 태도를 조사하였다. TRA가 본 연구의 개념틀로 사용되었다. 서울에 소재하고 있는 5개의 4년제 간호대학을 무작위로 추출하였으며 4학년 학생들 186명을 연구의 대상으로 하였다. 한국어로 번역된 Ajzen과 Fishbein(1980)의 도구를 이용한 질문지법을 연구의 방법으로 사용하였다. 다중회귀분석과 상관관계분석이 자료의 분석에 이용되었다. 한국 간호대학 학생들의 HIV-Disease대상자 간호 의도는 중립적인 것으로 조사되었다. 학생들의 의도는 학생들이 가지고 있는 HIV-Disease 대상자 간호에 관한 태도와 또한 HIV-Disease 대상자 간호로 인한 결과에 대한 인식으로 예견되었다. HIV-Disease 대상자를 간호하는 것이 학생들에게 긍정적인 결과를 줄 것이라는 인식은 학생들의 간호의도를 예견하고 있다. 그러나 TRA와는 달리 주위사람들이 자신이 HIV-Disease 대상자를 간호하는데 관한 의견은 학생들의 의도를 예견하지 못하였다. 학생들은 자신의 부모, 형제 또는 애인의 경우 자신이 HIV-Disease 대상자를 간호하지 않기를 바란다고 인식하고 있는 반면, 자신의 학교 교수, 성직자, 그리고 친구들은 HIV-Disease 대상자를 간호하는데 부정적이지는 않다고 인식하고 있다. 특히 같은 간호학을 전공하는 학교 친구들이 보여주는 HIV-Disease 대상자를 간호해야 한다는 인식은 타 학생들의 의도를 예견하는 것으로 조사되었다. 본 연구결과에 의하면 학생들의 HIV-Disease 대상자 간호 의도는 높지 않은 것으로 조사되었으며 특히 학생들의 간호의도에 학교의 교수들이 별 영향을 주고 있지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 이 결과에 의하면 HIV 질환과 HIV-Disease 대상자 간호 교육의 목표는 단순한 지식 의 습득뿐만 아니라 학생들이 보다 긍정적인 태도를 가질 수 있고, 긍정적인 결과를 인식 할 수 있도록 설정되어야 된다고 제 안하고 있다.
