The purpose of this study was to provide basic data for improving health promotion behavior by identifying the effects of life stress and coping with stress among nursing college students on health promotion behavior. The data was collected from 352 nursing students in 6 colleges in B and K city, and the data was analyzed with SPSS/Win 23.0. Factors influencing health promotion behavior were school life satisfaction (F=9.18, p<.001), happiness score (F=20.64, p<.001), health status (F=12.40, p<.001), eating breakfast (t=-3.31, p=.001), unbalanced diet (t=-4.20, p<.001), time spent sleeping (F=2.64, p=.049), and exercise (t=5.20, p<.001). In the correlations, health promotion behavior was negatively correlated with life stress (r=-.289, p<.001), but it was positively correlated with coping with stress (r=.539, p<.001). The factors influencing health promotion behavior were stress coping (β=.439, p<.001), happiness score (β=.251, p<.001), exercise (β=.172, p<.001), unbalanced diet (β=.125, p=.002), life stress (β=-.121, p=.005), and eating breakfast (β=.083, p=.046). The above variables explained 46.0% for the health promotion behavior. Thus, in order to improve the health promotion behavior of nursing college students, integrated nursing interventions need to be developed through improving coping with stress, creating a sense of happiness, reducing life stress, and maintaining exercise and good eating habits.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship among health behavior, obesity and QOL, and to identify factors affecting QOL of University Students in rural area, to provide the basic data for health promoting program in order to improve the QOL. Methods: The subjects of this study were 991 university students. The collected data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe's test, Pearson correlation coefficient and Stepwise multiple regression with SAS. Results: In the degree of the obesity were 13.4% of the underweight group, 48.9% of the normal weight group, and 37.6% of the overweight group. The average item score for the QOL was 3.19; the highest score on the subscale was physical domains(M=3.25) with the lowest environmental domains. In the degree of health behavior performance were 15.3% of regular health check, 27.5% of exercise, 45.1% of no-smoking, 32.4% of no-drinking alcohol, 53.1% of sleeping 7-hour, 49.7% of weight care, 56.1% of stress management, and 44.4% of breakfast. The score of QOL was statistically significant difference according to age, occupation of father, the number of brothers, total income, level of life, perceived health status, and admission of hospital. The score of QOL correlated positively with health behavior(r=.2521, p<.0001), and the scores of health behavior correlated positively with obesity(r=.0915, p=.0039). Stepwise multiple regression analysis for QOL revealed that the most powerful predictor was level of life. Stress management, perceived health status, sleeping 7-hour, regular health check, admission of hospital, total income, and weight care explained 13.2% of the variance. Conclusions: Therefore, it is necessary to develop health behavior promotion program in order to enhance the quality of life of university students. Future studies need to be pursued to find significant influencing factors for QOL of university students.

Purpose: This study was done to examine the effects of a Program Promoting Efficacy Expectation, as to whether the program improved self-efficacy, health promotion behavior and quality of life for rural middle-aged women. The program was based on Bandura's self-efficacy theory and Pender's health promoting behavior theory. Method: The research design was a quasi experimental, nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design. Data were collected from August 25 to December 7, 2000. The participants were 40 to 59 year old women who resided on Je-ju island. Among the 83 participants, 43 were assigned to experimental group and the rest to the control group. Results: The level of self efficacy and the degree of health promoting behavior of participants in the experimental group was higher than those in the control group (t=12.82, p=0.0001; t=14.13, p=0.0001). Also, the level of quality of life in the experimental group was higher than that of the control group (t=12.02, p=0.0001). Conclusion: The Efficacy Expectation Promotion Program was an effective nursing intervention for improving self-efficacy, health promotion behavior and quality of life. Therefore, when nurses are planning programs directed at improving health promotion behavior in rural middle aged women, they should consider the concept of self-efficacy.

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to learn the importance of self-directed learning about career-preparation behavior of department of dental technology students. Methods: Using the questionnaire, the department of dental technology in Gyeongnam Province conducted a survey of students of department of dental technology at A and B college for one month from May 15, 2019 through June 15, 2019, and finally 204 students were surveyed for Self-esteem, Self-determination, Self-efficacy, Internal control, College life adaptation, Self-directed learning, and Career-preparation behavior. Results: Self-esteem among students has been shown to improve self-directed learning by increasing the stress of college life, and self-efficacy has only a direct effect on self-directed learning. In addition, self-determination and internal control of department of dental technology students were found to be variables that have a common positive effect on college life adaptation and self-directed learning. In addition, college life adaptation gives direct positive effect to self-directed learning, but indirect effect through self-directed learning was found to be stronger than direct effect on career-preparation behavior, and the career-preparation behavior of students was further strengthened through self-directed learning. Conclusion: The changes in college restructuring and various policies also suggest that students should actively seek ways to instill certainty about their major's vision and career path within the college rather than deciding their future through extreme measures such as academic secession at a time when anxiety and uncertainty about their career is strong.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal time of transportation of floor-feed and scatter-feed broilers. Methods: Eighty healthy Arbor Acres (AA) broilers (21-day-old, 624.4 g, male, standard error = 6.65) were selected and randomly divided into two experimental groups (floor-feed and scatter-feed), then fed for three weeks. The experiment comprised a 2×4 factorial design with 2 feed patterns (floor-feed and scatter-feed) and 4 transport periods (2, 3, 4, and 5 h), and 4 replicates of 5 broilers (54-day-old, 2243 g, standard error = 46.65) was used to compare weight loss, meat quality and behavior index of different groups. Results: It appeared that drip loss, meat color and resting behavior of experimental broilers changed as length of transportation (p<0.05), however, weight loss and pH were not significantly transformed (p>0.05). Compared with floor-feed group, broilers in scatter-feed group had lower pH at 24 hours (3 h) and different behavioral indicators (p<0.05). Especially indicators after 3 h transportation, there were obvious differences between the two feeding modes in the behavior reaction of stress events before slaughter with different transport duration (p<0.05). The fluctuation of data on resting behavior with scatter-feed was significantly higher than that of floor-feed broilers. There was no interaction between transport time and different feeding methods for index tested of our experiment (p>0.05). Conclusion: Comprehensive analysis showed that the maximum transport duration of floor-feed and scatter-feed broilers should not exceed 3 h, and scatter-feed broilers were more likely prone to fear.

This study is a descriptive survey research conducted on second and third year nursing students located in G city from October 10 to 13, 2018, in order to assess the effects of life stress and eating habits among nursing students on eating behavior. The results of the study showed that there were differences in the subjects' eating behavior in terms of the amount of pocket money spent on food (F=5.83, p=.003), dietary pattern (t=4.14, p<.001), and unbalanced diet (F=9.27, p<.001). Eating behavior had a significant correlation with life stress (r=-.16, p=.001) and eating habits (r=.50, p<.001). Factors that affected eating behavior included eating habits (𝛽=.42, p<.001), food expenses taken out of pocket money (𝛽=-.14, p=.007), unbalanced diet(𝛽=-.14, p=.007), and life stress (𝛽=-.13, p=.010), and the explanatory power of these factors was 30.6% (F=26.63, p<.001). Based on the results of this study, it is necessary to find a way to promote the practice of having a healthy diet.
