The purpose of this study is analysis of 52 dissertations on assertiveness training which presented from 1982 to 1997 in Korea. It was diversified the research purpose to by 1) time of publication or presentation 2) research design, characteristics of subjects used in each study 3) related concepts, the effects of nursing interventions according to related concepts 4) the effects of nursing interventions according to the subjects 5) the effects of nursing interventions according to the frequency and the period of assertiveness training 6) the effects of nursing interventions according to the group size. 7) the effects of nursing interventions according to the necessary time per round. Findings obtained in the study were as follows : 1. At the point of the numbers of studies presented by year, the number of the studies tend to increase, especially the most plentiful papers were presented during five years from 1991 to 1995. 2. Research design of the studies belong to experimental research. The subjects of research consists of 5 Nursing related subjects and 47 Non-nursing related subjects so that Non-nursing related subjects contain much large proportion. 3. When studies were classified by the related concepts, they were classified that 17 studies were by assertiveness & assertive behaviour, 15 ones anxiety, 9 ones self & ego, 7 ones depression. It can be inferred that studies related to assertive behaviour, self & ego, sociality and power of learning were increasing. Otherwise, studies related to anxiety, depression, aggression, shyness and anguish were decreasing. 4. At the point of the nursing intervention effect by the subjects, the concepts of assertive behavior, feeling of self-respect and sociality were increasing, but the concepts of conflict and interpersonal stress were decreasing and the concepts of anxiety and sociality were ineffective in the subjects related Nursing. On the contrary, the concepts of assertive behavior, sociality and personalty were increasing, but the concepts of anxiety, depression, aggression, shyness, self-estranged feeling were decreasing and the concepts of assertive behavior, aggression, personalty, power of learning, anxiety, self-concepts and self-expression were ineffective in the subjects related Non-Nursing. 5. 18 studies can be found, which investigated 10 times for 5 weeks from the point of the nursing intervention effect by the times and the period of assertiveness training. In case of over 5 times of assertiveness training, assertiveness, assertive behavior and personality(tranquility, depression) increased. In 6 times, feeling of self-respect & egorespect increased but depression, interpersonal stress and anxiety decreased. In over 10 times, shyness, shame and feeling of self-estrangement decreased. In over 12 times, interpersonal anxiety decreased. 6. In the event of nursing intervention effect by the size of the group, it was greatest within 10 persons in 21 studies. In case of within 10 to 20, only feeling of self-expression were ineffective. Particularly, in case of over 31 persons, there were no ineffective concepts. 7. At the viewpoint of nursing intervention effect by the necessary time of one time, it was greatest within 1 to 2 hours in 32 studies. In case of within 1hour, aggression, power of learning and assertiveness were ineffective. In case of within 1 to 2 hours, assertive behavior, self-expression, personality and anxiety were ineffective. Particularly, in case of within 2 to 3 hours, there were no ineffective concepts.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate digital interventions on psychological well-being in patients with cancer through an integrated review. Methods: Fifteen studies were selected using PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus, DBpia, and RISS. The Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network was used by two reviewers to evaluate independently the quality of the selected articles. Results: Digital interventions for improving psychological well-being in cancer patients were most often based on cognitive behavioral therapy alone or a combination of interventions with professionals and other patients. In addition, a number of interventions were established on internet-based mindfulness therapy. Conclusions: Providing cognitive behavioral intervention alone did not significantly improve the level of depression or anxiety of patients with cancer. Meanwhile, interventions, including cognitive behavior therapy and interactions with professionals and other patients, were found to reduce significantly the level of depression or anxiety in the experimental group.

Purpose: The feasibility and differential effects of two music therapy methods (interventions with preferred music vs. classical relaxation music) were done to examine the effects on agitation and anxiety in patients weaning off mechanical ventilation. Methods: This pilot study was conducted using a crossover design. Six patients listened to preferred music choices and classical relaxation music. Anxiety scores were measured using the Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale (RASS), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and visual analog scale (VAS). Results: Patients showed a significant decrease in agitation and anxiety after both the preferred and classical relaxation music interventions. The difference in the effects of preferred music and that of classical relaxation music was not significant. As for feasibility, patients exhibited a change in agitated behaviors after the music interventions by not trying to take off medical devices and quietly listening to the music, and by smiling and moving lips along with the lyrics while listening. Conclusion: Music interventions which centered on either patients' preferences or classical relaxation music to enhance relaxation, helped reduce agitation and anxiety during the mechanical ventilation weaning process.

Purpose: Domestic violence is an important issue encountered in nurses' home visitation programs. This study analyzed the types of domestic violence and associated interventions provided by nurses in a prenatal and early childhood home visitation program in Korea. Methods: For 24 families who experienced domestic violence in the Seoul Healthy First Step Project, registration information and home visit nursing records were analyzed through directed qualitative content analysis. Results: Physical violence was found in all 24 cases, followed by emotional violence, coercive control, financial abuse, and sexual violence. Twenty-two interventions derived from existing nurse-family partnership (NFP) program strategies were identified in the nursing practices of the Seoul Healthy First Step Project. Conclusion: In a prenatal and early childhood nurses' home visitation program in Korea, various approaches and interventions were provided to nurses to address domestic violence. However, differences in the level of interventions provided by nurses were found, implying a need to educate and support nurses to address domestic violence in-home visitation programs.

Purpose: This study was done to suggest directions for developing exercise interventions for fall prevention in the elderly in Korea in the future, Method: Twenty five articles for fall prevention exercises were reviewed and analyzed. Result: $84.0\%$ of subjects were older adults age 65 and older living in the community. The most frequently performed interventions were lower limb strength and balance exercises together $43.3\%$, group exercise $70.0\%$, exercise 3 times/week $60.0\%$, 60 min per session $36.7\%$, duration of 12 weeks and 1 year $23.3\%$ each. The most frequently used outcome variables were static balance $84.0\%$, lower limb muscle strength $72.0\%$, dynamic balance $56.0\%$, and falls $56.0\%$. The effect of exercise interventions on fall prevention was inconclusive. Lower limb strength exercises with resistance were effective for increasing muscle strength. Balance exercises with various movements for balance were effective for increasing balance. Conclusion: Exercise interventions for fall prevention is recommended for older adults with risk factors of falling. The desirable type of exercise intervention is lower limb strength and balance exercise together.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop and to apply the NANDA, NOC, and NIC (NNN) linkages into a computerized nursing process program using the classification systems of nursing diagnoses, nursing outcomes and nursing interventions. Method: The program was developed with planning, analysis, design and performance stages. The program was applied to 117 patients who were admitted to orthopedic surgery nursing units from January to February, 2004. Results: Thirty-five of fifty-three nursing diagnoses were identified. Five nursing diagnoses in order of frequency were: Acute pain $(28.4\%)$, Impaired physical mobility $(15.6\%)$, Impaired walking $(8.7\%)$, Chronic pain $(5.5\%)$ and Risk for disuse syndrome $(5.0\%)$. The nursing outcomes of the 'Acute pain' nursing diagnosis tended to have higher frequencies (cumulative) in order of Pain management $(95.2\%)$, Comfort level $(35.5\%)$ and Pain level $(17.7\%)$. The nursing interventions of the 'Acute pain' nursing diagnosis tended to have higher frequencies (cumulative) in order of Pain management $(71.0\%)$, Splinting $(24.2\%)$ and Analgesic administration $(17.7\%)$. In comparison of outcome indicator scores between before and after the intervention according to the 61 nursing outcomes, the mean scores of 52 outcome indicators after the intervention were significantly higher than before the intervention. Conclusion: It is expected that this program will help nurses perform their nursing processes more efficiently.

Nursing as it is practiced and taught, historically has been viewed as natural science. There are new movements to create a paradigm of nursing in the human sciences. A natural science methodologies elicit quantitative data from observable phenomena and reveal causal relationships. Human science methodology is the study of Unitary Man's participative experience in a situation, the simultaneity paradigm. In a theory of nursing rooted in human science assumptions about man and health are synthesized, and the practice of nursing is continuously expanded through research. To find independent nursing interventions especially cognitive nursing intervention models it has been necessary to consult a multitude of journals and text sources for references, and no one nursing textbook can be used in help patients achieve nursing goals. The goals of nursing in the simultaneity paradigm focus on the quality of life from the person's perspective. Cognitive interventions based on the person's perspective were selected from those that colleagues deemed appropriate to nursing and those that were identified in the nursing literature. They were supportive nursing care, reminiscence, meditation, relaxation and imagery. Nurses have been reluctant to make diagnoses, implement actions, and assume responsibility for this actions and this is of concern but can be understood because nurses have had little exposure to action and lack an intervention armamentarium from with which to choose actions to achieve nursing goals. Efforts in nursing education and nursing service are required to remedy this problem. Nurses must be convinced of the challenge and excitement associated with autonomous functioning. It is a characteristic of the true professional. Traditionally, nursing has prescribed one method for handling a situation. Fundamental nursing texts usually only present one way to handle a situation, because alternative interventions to achieve a client goal may be available. Considerably more research is necessary before these can be prescribed. However, unless a first step is taken, progress will not be made. The quality of health care or nursing care is enhanced when nurses transform dilemas into commited action. This is apparent from widespread experiences of nurses.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to review research trends and show the developmental direction of studies on dementia and nursing interventions for demented elders. Methods: This study analyzed 104 articles on dementia and 23 on nursing interventions for demented elders published until 2007. Results: These dementia studies increased in quantity after 1996, mainly in studies on demented elders and their families and in quantitative studies, Nursing intervention methods were music, light, horticultural therapy, reminiscence and complex therapeutic program, etc. There were experimental studies after 1996, but non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design was 8(34.8%) of 23(100,0%). The medium sample size was 16.6 for experimental groups, 13 for control groups. The experimental time range was 10-120 minutes a day, frequency was 1-18 a week, and the total frequency was 4-72. The result variables were cognitive function, dementia behavior, emotion, depression, ADL, social behavior, etc. Conclusion: The findings of this review suggest that studies on dementia have been improved in quantity since 1996, but various and effective research methods should be developed as a way to further improve the quality of studies.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of health interventions using virtual reality (VR) on improving knowledge, attitudes, and skills; and inducing behavioral change among adolescents. Methods: This study is a systematic review and meta-analysis following PRISMA guidelines. We searched Cochrane, MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Scopus, Web of Science, and Korean databases between database inception and April 10, 2021. Based on heterogeneity, a random- or fixed-effects model was used, as appropriate, to calculate effect sizes in terms of the standardized mean difference (SMD) and odds ratio (OR). Studies were selected if they verified the effects of health education using VR on adolescents; there was an appropriate control group; and if the effects of education were reported in terms of changes in knowledge, attitudes, skills, or behaviors. Results: This analysis included six studies (n = 1,086). The intervention groups showed greater responses in knowledge and attitudes (SMD = 0.57, 95% confidence interval (CI) [0.12 to 1.02]), skills related to health behavior (SMD = - 0.45, 95% CI [- 0.71 to - 0.19]), and behavioral change after 12 months (OR = 2.36, 95% CI [1.03 to 5.41]). Conclusion: The results confirm the effectiveness of health interventions using virtual reality (VR). Although the analysis include a small number of studies, a case can be made for health interventions using VR to be utilized as educational methods and strategies to prevent risky behaviors among adolescents.
