Purpose : This research is a descriptive study that aimed to identify the levels of health promotion behaviors, fatigue, and depression of nursing students and confirm the effect of health promotion behaviors on fatigue and depression. Methods : Data were collected from September 27 to October 15, 2021 through survey questionnaires on 178 nursing students of 2 universities in G-do who voluntarily agreed to participate. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 23.0, the general characteristics of nursing students were analyzed by frequency and percentage, and the levels of their health promotion behaviors, fatigue, and depression of nursing students was analyzed by mean and standard deviation. The relationship among the health promotion behaviors, fatigue, and depression was analyzed by Pearson's Correlation Coefficient. Multiple regression analysis was performed for the effects of health promotion behaviors on fatigue and depression of nursing students. Results : The nursing students' health promotion behaviors averaged 2.25±.43 points out of 5, and for each sub-factor, interpersonal relationship was the highest at 2.66±.49 points and physical activity was the lowest at 2.01±.60 points. Fatigue was 4.89±1.02 points out of 7 and depression was 10.52±9.10 points out of 63. A statistically significant correlation was found among health promotion behaviors, fatigue, and depression. Health promotion behaviors that significantly affected fatigue were stress management (𝛽=-.263, p=.004) and physical activity (𝛽=-.208, p=.026), which showed 35 % explanatory power on fatigue. Health promotion behaviors that significantly affected depression were spiritual growth (𝛽=-.342, p=.002), and physical activity (𝛽=-.231, p=.016), which showed 31 % explanatory power for depression. Conclusion : This study is meaningful in that it provided basic data to develop an effective health promotion behavior program to prevent and manage nursing students' fatigue and depression, by identifying and analyzing the sub-factors of health promotion behaviors affecting their fatigue and depression.

Results: The mean score of health promotion of the subjects was 1.49 (${\pm}0.53$), stress of gynecologic cancer was 1.36 (${\pm}0.76$) and the quality of life of the subjects was 2.38 (${\pm}0.59$). There was a negative correlation between the quality of life and stress (r=-.482, p<.001), and positive correlation between the quality of life and health promotion (r=.442, p<.001) in the subjects. Conclusion: This study showed correlations between the health promotion, stress and the quality of life of patients with genital neoplasms. The quality of life of the patients with genital neoplasms was low when their stress was high. In contrast, their quality of life was high when the score of health promotion was high. Considering the research findings, it is necessary to develop a health promotion program for patients with genital neoplasms to strengthen their health promotion behaviors.

This study was conducted to contribute to the expansion of activity areas for school nurses in the field of health promotion services whose importance are increasing daily. To achieve such goals the researcher proposed that health promotion programs for obesity management in overweight schoolchildren conducted by literature review to apply to school settings. In this program, the principal components developed a behavior modification program and an exercise program, which could be educated and managed by a nursing staff during for 9 weeks, three times per week, 60 minutes each. The program consisted of exercise, health education. health counseling, and a direct nursing care. This kind of approach may support the need of behavior modification programs and exercise programs on a regular base via the social organization, which may mean an intentional change of life style. A comprehensive approach to health promotion services proposed by this research would contribute greatly to the effectiveness of school health services and to promote health in overweight schoolchildren.
