  • Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify factors related to compliance with respiratory infection preventive behaviors including hand washing, cough etiquette, and oral hygiene of older adults. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with a convenience sample of 100 older adults (mean age: $76.11{\pm}6.35$ years, female: 86.0%). Data were collected from a community senior center through face to face interviews by using instruments including measuring knowledge, perceived threat, self-efficacy, compliance with respiratory infection preventive behaviors. Results: The mean score of knowledge was 7.52 out of 13 in total. The compliance with hand washing with soap was 6.0% for 8 or more times per day. Among the participants, 12.0% adhered to the cough etiquette. Sixty-two older adults (62.0%) didn't use interdental brushes or floss at all. The stepwise linear regression indicated that age and self-efficacy for respiratory infection preventive behaviors were significant factors and explained 24.0% of the compliance with hand washing and the cough etiquette. Education level, cancer diagnosis, and self-efficacy for respiratory infection preventive behaviors were significant predictors of oral hygiene. The factor with the greatest effect was self-efficacy in the two models. Conclusion: The findings suggest that it is necessary to improve compliance with respiratory infection preventive behaviors among older adults using senior centers. In order to enhance the compliance, it is necessary to develop nursing programs based on the self-efficacy for respiratory infection preventive behaviors in the senior centers.

  • Background: The purpose of this study was influence of change of electrical stimulation time on body regions affects on electrical current threshold. Methods: The present study is to examine the effect of silver spike point (SSP) electrical stimulation (1Hz), transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS, 100Hz), and interferential current therapy (ICT, 50Hz) from the low back and scapulodorsal and knee joint regions on stimulation-induced current thresholds from the elderly (over sixty) people (male:72, female:91) in senior welfare center. Result: The low back region, but not scapulodorsal and knee joint region, significantly increased the TENS and ICT, but not SSP, electrical stimulation, significantly increased the time-dependent current thresholds in elderly patients. Conclusion: Therefore, these results, in part, suggest that the TENS and ICT were shown to be a more adaptable method of stimulation, and that needed of the development of senile specialized physical therapy and the utilization of senior leisure facilities such as senior welfare center the others.

  • 이 연구에서는 직장인의 스트레스 증상과 대처 관련 변인들 사이의 관계를 분석하는 데 주된 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 정서적 지원(가족, 직장동료, 직장상사), 자기효능감(자기조절, 사회성, 관계, 어려움극복, 업무처리), 직무만족도, 직무성취도가 스트레스 증상 및 대처에 미치는 영향력의 정도를 분석하였다. 분석대상은 교사 559명(초 205, 중 203, 고 151; 남 132, 여 427)이었다. 분석결과, 학교급별로 초, 중, 고등학교 교사는 스트레스 증상과 대처에서 차이가 없었다. 그러나 성별로는 유의한 차이가 있었는데, 여자 교사가 남자 교사보다 스트레스 증상이 높았으나 대처도 더 잘 하였다. 정서적 지원, 자기효능감, 직무성취도, 직무만족도 변인을 투입하여 중다회귀분석 하였을 때, 스트레스 증상에 대해 남녀 교사 모두 직무만족도가 의미 있는 부적인 영향력을 나타내었다. 스트레스 대처에 대해서는 남자 교사 경우에 어려움극복효능감이, 여자 교사 경우에 어려움극복효능감, 동료의 정서적 지원, 직무성취도, 가족의 정서적 지원이 의미 있는 정적인 영향력을 나타내었다. 따라서 남녀 교사 모두 높은 직무만족도는 스트레스 증상을 완화하는데 기여하는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 남녀 교사 모두 높은 어려움극복효능감은 스트레스의 효율적 대처에 기여하였으며, 여자 교사 경우에는 이외에도 동료나 가족의 정서적 지원 및 직무성취도가 스트레스 대처에 도움이 되었다.
