Data were collected using questionnaire of concern and coping about Death and Dying. Data were analyzed with the mean, SDs and Wilcoxen test. Results: The mean score of concern about death and dying was 7.03. The highest items of concern about death and dying were 'thoughts of physical pain and being, 'thoughts of suffocating and choking, 'fear of darkness', The lowest items of concern about death and dying were. 'thoughts of burglars invading my possessions', 'rejection by God', thoughts of no one attending funeral', 'thoughts of no one paying respect or tribute', The mean score of coping about death and dying was 11.37. The highest items of coping about death and dying were 'call family member(s) into room and ask them ti sit close by, reminisce on happy events of the past, tell myself that there is nothing to be afraid of, look at family picture albums'.

Methods: The participants in this study were 126 students from S middle school and Y middle school, both located in Gyeongnam province. The experimental group consisted of 40 students from S middle school, Control group-Iconsisted of 39 students from S middle school, and Control group-II consisted of 47 students from Y middle school. The experimental group was provided with 12 incidences of the life-respect education program from April 1st to June 29th. One period took 45 minutes and proceeded according to a structure of introduction, development, and consolidation. The experimental group received a life-respect education program, Control group-I received health teaching, but Control group-II didn't receive any special education except what was regularly part of their curriculum.

본 논문은 고령화 사회의 공공도서관에서 제공되는 노인대상 프로그램 개발의 기초자료 수집을 위해 서울시 소재 노인종합복지관과 공공도서관 홈페이지의 노인교육 프로그램을 비교하였다. 프로그램 내용을 건강, 문해/교양, 정보화교육, 죽음준비교육, 취미, 취업/자원봉사의 6가지 세부주제로 구분하여 각 기관별 해당 주제를 조사하였다. 두 기관에서 가장 많은 교육프로그램이 제공된 분야는 취미분야였으며, 노인종합복지관에서는 공공도서관보다 3배이상의 프로그램을 운영하고 있었다. 공공도서관의 경우, 취미(34.1%), 기타, 문해/교양(24.4%), 건강과 정보화교육(22.0%), 취업/자원봉사(17.1%), 죽음준비(7.3%)순으로 프로그램이 제공되었으며, 문제점에 따른 제언을 제시하였다. 그리고 죽음준비교육 프로그램의 일환으로 '행복지도 만들기'를 14주차에 걸쳐서 시행할 수 있도록 프로그램을 예시하였다.

목적: 본 연구는 일개 종합병원의 호스피스 자원봉사자들을 대상으로 완화 돌봄 교육 프로그램을 실시하여 호스피스 자원봉사자의 동기, 죽음 불안 및 말기 환자와의 의사소통 불안에 미치는 효과를 파악하고 궁극적으로 호스피스 완화돌봄 서비스의 질 향상을 위한 기초 자료를 제시하고자 시도되었다. 방법: 본 연구의 설계는 비동등성 대조군 전 후 유사실험연구이다. 서울 소재 S 종합병원에 등록되어 있는 호스피스 자원봉사자 71명을 A 군(실험군, 34명) 또는 B 군(대조군, 37명)에 배정하였다. A 군에게는 2주 동안 주 3회, 총 6회기, 1회 3시간의 16개 내용으로 구성된 완화돌봄 교육프로그램을 제공하였다. A군과 B군은 프로그램 실시 전 후에 호스피스 자원봉사자의 동기, 죽음 불안 및 말기 환자와의 의사소통 불안 정도를 측정하였다. 대상자의 일반적인 특성은 기술통계를 이용하여 나타내었으며, 두 군 간의 일반적인 특성 및 종속변수에 대한 동질성은 Chi-squire test와 t-test로 검정하였다. 완화돌봄 교육프로그램이 호스피스 자원봉사자의 동기, 죽음 불안 및 말기환자와의 의사소통 불안에 미치는 효과는 t-test로 검정하였다. 결과: 완화돌봄 교육프로그램은 호스피스 자원봉사자의 동기(t=2.341, P=0.022), 죽음 불안(t=-2.166, P=0.034) 및 말기 환자와의 의사소통 불안(t=2.808, P=0.006)에 통계적으로 유의한 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 결론: 본 연구 결과, 완화돌봄 교육프로그램은 호스피스 자원봉사자의 동기를 향상시키고 죽음 불안 및 말기 환자와의 의사소통 불안을 감소시키는데 효과적인 방법으로 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship among knowledge and attitude toward palliative care and perception of death for Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) nurses. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted with 110 nurses who work in NICUs in South Korea. The participants filled out a questionnaire regarding their knowledge, attitude towards palliative care and perception of death. The attitude scale was divided into 3 subscales: comfort level, nurses' role and nurses' involvement with family. Results: Comfort level regarding attitude towards palliative care was positively correlated with knowledge (r=.220, p=.016) and the perception of death (r=.194, p=.042). Nurses' role showed a positive correlation with perception of death (r=.395, p=.001). Conclusion: NICU nurses' knowledge of palliative care was below standard across the board, implying that there is a definite need for palliative care education for nurses. The education program for palliative care should include a section that focuses on fostering a positive perception of death as well as defining and delineating the role of nurses.

Purpose: Sudden unexplained infant death (SUID) is a major contributor to infant mortality, and pediatric nurses have the responsibility to educate parents on SUID-reducing strategies. This study was conducted to measure pediatric nurses' knowledge of SUID-related safe sleep practices (K-SSSP) and infant cardiopulmonary resuscitation (K-ICPR). Methods: In total, 136 pediatric nurses were administered a survey including K-SSSP (13 items), K-ICPR (5 items), confidence in K-SSSP education (1 item; 5 points), and other factors relating to SUID experiences or education. Results: The correct answer rates of the K-SSSP and K-ICPR were 62.6% and 62.5%, retrospectively. The mean score for confidence in K-SSSP education was 2.6±0.9. Only 18 nurses (13.2%) responded that they educated parents on the content of the K-SSSP, while 76 nurses had received education on SUID. Positive relationships were observed between K-SSSP scores and higher education, between K-ICPR scores and having own child(ren) and clinical experience, and between confidence in K-SSSP education and higher education or having one's own child(ren). Nurses caring for newborns performed more SUID education than nurses working in other units. Conclusion: There is a profound need to implement a systemic educational program on SUID and strategies to reduce SUID for pediatric nurses.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify nursing students' knowledge and attitude toward advance directives and factors influencing the attitude. Methods: A cross-sectional survey design was used and 196 nursing students participated in the study. Data were collected from July 1 to August 30, 2018 using a structured questionnaire which included biomedical ethics, awareness of good death, knowledge and attitude toward advance directives. Data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 25.0 program with descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, correlation, and multiple regression. Results: The mean score of biomedical ethics, awareness of good death, knowledge and attitude toward advance directives were $2.88{\pm}0.59$, $3.18{\pm}0.48$, $7.68{\pm}31.32$, $31.00{\pm}3.09$. Factors influencing the attitude toward advance directives were awareness of good death (${\beta}=.28$, p<.001), intention of writing their advance directives (${\beta}=.19$, p=.006), the knowledge related to advance directives (${\beta}=.15$, p=.029). A total of 14% of attitude toward advance directives was explained by awareness of good death, the knowledge related to advance directives, and ntention of writing their advance directives. Conclusion: The findings of the study indicate that it is necessary to provide a systemic education program regarding advance directives for nursing students in order to provide knowledge related to advance directives and to help them establish positive attitudes toward advance directives.
