Objectives : A precedent research has documented that occupational stress is closely associated with increased the risk of fatigue and decreased in job satisfaction. This study was conducted in an effort to assess the relationship of occupational stress to self-perceived fatigue and job satisfaction by using job strain model. Methods : The number of respondents was 122 dental hygienist who work in dental clinic and period of the investigation was July 2009 through september 2009. A structured questionnaire was employed to evaluate the participants' sociodemographics, job-related factors, health-related behaviors, occupational stress, job satisfaction and self-perceived fatigue. Occupational stress and self-perceived fatigue were assessed using the Korean Occupational Stress Scale-Short form (KOSS-SF) and the Multidimensional Fatigue Scale (MFS), respectively. Results : In job strain model, the ratio of Q2(High Strain Job) group that more susceptible to disease by stress than other group was 16% and the proportion of high fatigue group(Q3, Q4 group) and low job satisfaction group(Q3, Q4 group) was 48%, 45% respectively. In logistic regression analyses, a High Strain Job group was associated with higher odds of react factor(fatigue, job satisfaction) and the odds was down by 3.3%~7.5% after adjustment for age, smoking, alcohol drinking, regular exercise. So the effective strategy for fatigue, job satisfaction reduction for dental hygienist requires additional program focusing on innovated work environment that provide a enough leisure time and exercise program considering the personality traits. Conclusions : The results of this study suggest that occupational stress is a determinant predictor of self perceived fatigue and job satisfaction. Thus, a stress management program for the reduction of occupational stress, and the promotion of dental hygienist impact assessment health and quality of life is strongly recommended.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of flower decorations on job stress and stress copying style of police officers. Flower decorations were done in the form of "one-table one-flower", in which flowers were placed on each desk in the office space. By analyzing color psychology, we first identified the symbolism of color, and selected the cut flowers in the same color. We selected six types of flowers in six colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple. Each Monday morning, the flower decorations were delivered to the police station. We selected 50 subjects who wanted to keep flowers on their desks every week as the experimental group and 44 subjects who only wanted to participated in the assessment as the control group. Before and after the program, we examined the mean difference between the control group and experimental group. After six sessions of the program, there was a significant difference in job stress (p < .001) and stress copying style (p = .049) of the experimental group compared to the control group. Therefore, this study proved that having flower decorations in an office space is effective for the psychological stability of police officers that are highly stressed, due to sensory stimulations from the colors and scents of flowers as well as mutual interaction as they take care of the flowers.

Background: Employee job satisfaction and its relationship with health and quality of life has been an issue of major concern over the past decades. Nurses experience difficult working conditions that affect their job satisfaction, health, and quality of life. Methods: A cross-sectional study was undertaken in three general hospitals and their respective health centers. Stratified random sampling by level of education was used, and 508 nurses and nursing assistants were included. A self-administered anonymous questionnaire, which included the Measure of Job Satisfaction, the 36-item Short Form Health Survey, as well as demographic details, education, and work conditions data, was used. Results: Greek nurses were found to be dissatisfied with their job according to the total score of the job satisfaction scale, although personal satisfaction and satisfaction with support had had higher scores. Their general health was reported as average, because of physical and mental health problems, low vitality, low energy, and increased physical pain. Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that males and those wishing to stay in the job had higher physical and mental health. Increased job satisfaction was related to increased physical and mental health. Conclusion: Although Greek nurses are not satisfied with their work, those with high levels of job satisfaction had better health-related quality of life. The findings suggest that improvement of the work environment would contribute to a healthier and more satisfied nursing workforce.

본 연구는 개인-환경 부합 관점에서 취업시장변화에 따른 취업준비생의 관심사를 토대로 의사결정과정에 영향을 미치는 취업난의 원인을 탐색적으로 고찰하였다. 이를 위해, 최근 3개년(2013~2015) 간 취업 관련 커뮤니티 내 이용자 게시글(소셜미디어)을 웹 크롤링을 통해 수집하고, 텍스트 마이닝 기법 중 토픽 분석을 통해 취업준비생의 주요 관심사 유형 및 심리적 반응 변화추이를 분석하였다. 분석결과, 취업준비생의 주요 관심사가 '희망직업(세계)에 대한 인식, 취업사전준비활동, 노동시장에 대한 인식, 취업 스트레스'의 네 가지 유형으로 나타나는 것을 발견하였다. 구체적으로 이들은 직업가치나 미래 진로에 대한 탐색보다 희망직업과 관련하여 금전적 보상이나 직장근무형태(근무 및 생활환경)에 관해 관심을 두고 있어 불확실한 환경에 직면하면서 특정 언어적 사용(예: 비속어, 은어)을 토대로 불안정한 심리적 상태를 표현하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 현재 취업준비생들은 취업 성공을 위한 전략적 선택차원에서 주로 스펙준비에 치중하고 있어 취업불안에 따른 스트레스를 받는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 현재 취업난은 총체적으로 개인과 사회 조직의 가치추구 부재에 기인한다고 볼 수 있다. 결국 개인은 자신의 직업 가치관을 확립하지 못한 상황에서 일부 기업들은 인적자원의 중요성에 대해 자각하지 못하며, 사회적으로는 직업위세란 장애요인이 복합적으로 작용하여 나타난 문제라고 볼 수 있다. 따라서 취업난이란 특정 상황과 현상의 원인을 다각적으로 이해하고 다수의 취업준비생 관심사를 도출하기 위한 토픽분석과 이들의 다양한 반응의 의미를 언어 심리적 이론을 토대로 해석하는 접근방법의 필요성을 제기한다.
