  • The purpose of this study was to explore the concepts of health among people with mobility disabilities in order to develop a new holistic model of health and to identify implications for social work practice. A qualitative study based on face-to-face interviews with people with mobility disabilities was conducted. Nine consumers and nine social workers with mobility disabilities participated in the study. Social constructionism, heuristic paradigm, empowerment paradigm, and strength perspectives were used to form conceptual foundations to guide the study. Study participants' holistic descriptions of the concept of health encompassed five domains: biological/physical, mental/emotional, financial, relationships with others, and spiritual. Participants described health as harmony among these five domains. Harmony indicates that all five domains contribute to the concept of health, and that each domain is related to the others. Participants also viewed disability and health as an interconnected whole, not separate concept. The conceptual model developed in this study expands on the existing concepts of health by considering multiple factors at the personal and environmental levels, as well as interactions among the factors and between the levels. The personal level has five domains: biological/physical, mental/emotional, spiritual, financial, and relationships with others. The environmental level has also five domains: relationship with others, financial, social programs, social attitudes toward peoplewith disabilities, and physical environment. All factors under the personal and environmental levels also affect each other. The holistic concept of health for people with disabilities is not solely a part of the person, but rather is a function of the interaction between the person and their environment. The study demonstrated that people with disabilities have strength and resiliency, and health is an attainable goal for them, particularly when environmental and cultural barriers are addressed. The focus of social work practice should be the removal of those barriers encountered by their consumers with disabilities, as well as, the enhancement of internal factors that facilitate well-being.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the effect of Self-foot reflexology (SFR) on the hypertension of workers. The purpose of the research was to evaluate: levels of knowledge, physical and emotional condition, work stress and fatigue on the hypertension of employees in the workplace. Quasi-experimental study was designed in the setting of a nonequivalent control and experimental Group applied by the pre and post test. The total subjects undertaken in the study were total of 34 employees working in three companies in Seoul. The SFR program was consisted of 6 phases. There were 2 minutes for preparation, 4 minutes for slow down, 26 minutes for base reflex, symptoms of a disease reflex and excretion reflex stimulation. Finally, there was 20 minutes relaxation in a comfortable posture and drinking hot water after blood pressure was checked in the order. This program was running 55 minutes a day everyday three times a week during the entire 8 week course. The finding showed blood pressure was reduced significantly. Moreover, the level of total cholesterol. high and low density lipoprotein cholesterol, depression, work stress, and fatigue were decreased in the study. But, they were not statistically significant except as it related to Group comparisons in time. The level of state anxiety was statistically significant between 2 Groups, but not in the time comparison of both Groups. As a summary of the study results, the SFR program was regarded as contributing to the physical and emotional promotion of employees. It had partially increased body circulations of functional organ related to the SFR sites. And, it improved relaxation of physical and mental condition through energy movement 'Chi'. Therefore, the SFR technique should be considered as an effective skill of a nursing program. Furthermore, it can be newly adopted as a nursing curriculum as a part of alternative treatment. However, it still needed to testify its effects through the review study.

  • This study examines different individual, family, and school environmental variables that affect victimization by peer aggression among adolescents. The sample consists of 868 seventh and eighth graders. Statistics and method for data analysis include Cronbach's alpha, percentage, means, standard deviation, Pearson correlation, multiple regression, and hierarchical regression. The major findings of this study are as follows: First, adolescents, both withdrawn and aggressive, have lower achievement in school work. Boys experience more direct victimization by peer aggression. Adolescents, especially boys, often experience indirect victimization by peer aggression, when they become withdrawn, own lower self-esteem, and have lower achievement in school work. Second, adolescents have more direct victimization by peer aggression when their parents are negligent of them. Also, adolescents seem exposed to indirect victimization by peer aggression when they receive more physical and emotional abuse and negligence from their parents. Third, adolescents experience more victimization by peer aggression-whether it's direct or indirect, when they cannot get adjusted to peer relations and get teachers' supervision. Fourth, as to direct victimization by peer aggression, withdrawal, one of the individual variables, is the most reliable prediction followed by gender, negligence, adaptability in peer relations, aggression, and teacher's supervision in sequence. For indirect victimization by peer aggression, withdrawal is the most reliable prediction followed by adaptability in peer relations, gender, physical and emotional abuse, and negligence in sequence.

  • Objectives: This study examines the occurrence of disease resulting from low back pain and factors of working environment meaningfully influencing the occurrence of lumbago as well as analyzes '2nd Korean Working Condition Survey (KWCS)' conducted in 2010 so as to establish the prevention and improvement measures. Methods: The analysis method is that it is to compare the prevalence rate of low back pain according to working environment via odds ratio and to implement the test about the factors having the difference in working environment between low back pain group and normal group through weighted t-test. Results: As a result, it indicates that there is a meaningful difference for prevalence rate of low back pain according to age, status in employment and education level which are socio-demographical factors. The analysis in working hours shows that the period of work is a factor raising the prevalence rate of low back pain rather than weekly working hours. The analysis in the work risk factor indicates that the increase in prevalence rate of low back pain takes place to either workers with repetitive movement and continuously standing posture or those with heavy stress and emotional labour. Conclusions: Workers with low back pain have suffered from accident, depression, anxiety disorder and sleep. The factors in which the prevalence rate of low back pain decrease are to provide information on health and safety and working speed, and enough rest.

  • 본 연구는 실제 재배농가에서 실시되는 엽채류 수경재배를 이용한 원예치료 프로그램을 통해 지적 장애학생의 직업적응력을 향상시키고자 실시하였다. 직업적응훈련모델과 제 7차 특수학교 직업교과과정 농업교과의 경제작물영역에서 수경재배의 특성과 기초적인 이론을 바탕으로 엽채류(상추, Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L. 'Asia Heuk Romaine')) 수경재배를 이용한 원예치료 프로그램(총 22회기)을 개발하였다. 인천광역시 K구에 위치한 특수학교 전공과에 재학중인 1-2학년 지적 장애학생 14명(남 10명, 여 4명)을 대상으로, 학교와 가까이 위치하고 있는 인천시 K구에 위치한 채소류 전문생산농가에서 실시되었다. 본 프로그램은 2011년 9월부터 12월까지 주 2회(회기 당 평균 60분) 전공과 교육과정 내 실습교육의 일부로 진행되었다. 수경재배를 이용한 원예치료 프로그램의 효과를 검증하기 위해서 담임교사 또는 원예치료사가 원예치료 프로그램 실시 전과 후에 실험에 참여한 장애학생들을 대상으로 신경근육발달능력(McCarron assessment neuromuscular development), 정서적 행동능력(emotional behavioral checklist), 대인관계전략(interpersonal negotiation strategies), 직업 흥미도 검사(KEPAD pictoral vocational interest test)를 실시하였다. 그 결과, 수경재배를 이용한 원예치료 프로그램 실시 후에 지적 장애학생들의 운동능력(P= 0.002), 정서적 행동능력(P= 0.00), 대인관계전략(P = 0.05)이 유의하게 향상된 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 직업 흥미도에 대한 통계적 유의성은 나타나지 않았다. 결론적으로, 본 수경재배를 이용한 원예치료 프로그램은 지적 장애학생들의 직업적응력 증진에 영향을 미치는 운동능력과 정서적 행동능력 및 대인관계전략에 긍정적인 효과가 있는 것으로 조사되었으며, 수경재배는 대체로 단순하고 쉬운 작업과정으로, 지적 장애인의 직업영역으로써 적합하며, 직무수행에 있어서도 비교적 어려움이 적은 직종이라 판단된다. 추가적으로 직업적응력 증진을 위해 실제 현장에서 다양한 종류의 엽채류를 재배하는 수경재배 프로그램의 개발 및 적용이 필요할 것이다.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to identify the effects of preceptor's leadership, preceptor-preceptee exchange relationship, and preceptee's self-leadership on newly hired nurses' turnover intention. Methods: Participants were 175 nurses working at general hospitals in D city. Data were collected from 164 nurses in May 2019 and were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS/WIN 24.0 program. Results: Newly hired nurses' turnover intention was negatively correlated with preceptor's transactional leadership (r=-.23, p=.003), preceptor's emotional leadership (r=-.28, p<.001), preceptor-preceptee exchange relationship (r=-.34, p<.001), and preceptee's self-leadership (r=-.23, p=.004). The work unit (β=.35, p<.001), preceptor-preceptee exchange relationship (β=-.28, p=.002), present work experience (β=.27, p=.043), and marital status (β=-.19, p=.009) were significant predictors of the turnover intention (R2=.26, p<.001). Conclusion: Therefore, in order to reduce the degree of turnover of new nurses, improving the exchange relationship of preceptor-preceptee is required, and balancing between work and life should be considered especially for the married new nurses.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to identify factors influencing depressive symptoms in public and private sector employees. Methods: Survey data on 23,602 workers who had worked in the public or private sector were obtained from the 2014 Korean Working Condition Survey (KWCS). Symptoms of depression were measured using the WHO-5 Well-being Index. Data were analyzed using a $x^2$ test, t-test, and multivariate stepwise logistic regression to determine the factors affecting the symptoms of depression. Results: First, the prevalence of depressive symptoms was 41.1 % in public sector employees and 43.4 % in private sector employees. Second, the factors commonly affecting depressive symptoms in public and private sector employees were residence area, cognitive demands, development opportunities, social support from colleagues, social support from supervisors, social community at work, job rewards, and work-family conflict. In addition, age, company size, atypical work, ergonomic risks, quantitative demands, emotional demands, influence, and job insecurity were found to be predictors of depressive symptoms unique to private sector employees. Conclusion: Mental health programs including the employee assistance program (EAP) should be developed and implemented after considering the risk factors affecting depressive symptoms.

  • Background: The present objective was to verify whether burnout (emotional exhaustion [EE], depersonalization [DP] and low professional efficacy [PE]) is a risk factor for long-term sickness absence (LTSA; 30 consecutive days) from the teaching role. Methods: This was a prospective cohort study with two years of follow-up that investigated 509 elementary and high-school teachers. Burnout was identified by Maslach Burnout Inventory. Poisson regression with robust variance was used to adjust for possible confounders. Results: The incidence of LTSA was 9.4%. High EE levels were associated with LTSA in the crude analysis, but the association lost statistical significance after adjustments (for sex, age, perception of work-life balance, general self-rated health, chronic pain and depression). High DP levels were associated with this outcome, even after all adjustments (relative risk = 1.80; 95% confidence interval: 1.05-3.09). Low PE levels were not related to LTSA. Conclusion: The results reinforce the need to improve teachers' work conditions to reduce burnout, particularly DP, and its consequences.
