This study investigated the effects of Child Care and Teaching(CCT) practice on student teachers'(N=361) perceived Efficacy for Child Care an Teaching(ECCT), including relationships between ECCT and generalized self-efficacy. Instruments were the ECCT scale, the generalized self-efficacy scale, and self-evaluation concerning CCT. Research design consisted of pre-test, CCT practices. and post-test. Results showed that ECCT scores increased after CCT practice: ECCT was related with generalized self-efficacy and to self-evaluation concerning CCT. These findings suggested that CCT experience is important to student teachers' perceived ECCT, and ECCT, in turn, is a predictor of actual CCT behavior.

Method: Data was collected from 127 nursing students in February, 2008. The collected data were analyzed with the SPSS/Win 12.0 program, using t-test, ANOVA, paired t-test and Pearson's correlation coefficients. Results: The total mean scores were; anxiety 53.22/80, self-esteem 29.51/40 and self-efficacy in 59.76/85. Self-esteem and self-efficacy level were significantly different according to the level of Fundamentals practice and satisfaction with nursing as a major satisfaction(p=.001). The effect of the orientation program on clinical practice were a significantly increased in self-esteem and self-efficacy (p=.000). But in terms of anxiety, the effect was the opposite.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of introductory clinical practice education program for nursing students. The nursing students of 94 participated the introductory education program of 80 hours. The questionnaire survey on self efficacy and clinical competency were conducted 3 times(before education, after education, 2 months after education) to the nursing students. The data were analyzed by the SPSS 17.0 program. The results were as follows; The self efficacy and the clinical competency score showed a significant change in the posttest. Self efficacy and clinical competency have significant relationships with college life satisfaction, interpersonal relationship and academic aptitude satisfaction. Also, self efficacy has significant relationship with clinical competency and clinical practice satisfaction. As a result, the introductory clinical practice education program can be helpful to adjustment for nursing students before clinical practice.

Purpose: The study was to test the effects of nutrition education program changing the dietary self-efficacy and dietary practice of elementary school children. Method: The study was designed as a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design. The subjects of the study were 70 boys and girls in the fourth grade of elementary school in Seoul. They were devided in two groups evenly : control group and treatment group. The control group participated in the nutrition education with 4 sessions for 4 weeks. data were collected by self-reported questionnaires(dietary self-efficacy and dietary practice) from the 28th of August to the 10th of October. 200l. Result: 1. A hypothesis that 'the elementary school children who participated in the nutrition education may get higher points on dietary self-efficacy than the elementary school children who did not participated' has been adopted(t=-6.36. p<001). 2. A hypothesis that 'the elementary school children who participated in the nutrition education may get higher points on dietary practice than the elementary school children who did not participated' has been adopted(t=-5.03. p<001). Conclusion: The nutrition education is an effective nursing intervention strategy for elementary school children by supporting them form positive dietary self-efficacy and improve dietary practice.

In order to investigate the effects of subjective oral health status and health practice behavior on oral health-related self-efficacy in adults, a survey was conducted in adults living in Busan and analyzed using the SPSS 21.0 program. The better the subjective oral health status, brushing-related self-efficacy and oral health management self-efficacy were significantly higher. The better the health practice behavior, brushing-related self-efficacy and oral health management self-efficacy were significantly higher. The better the subjective oral health status, the more positively it affected oral health-related self-efficacy. The implementation of health practice behavior in order of exercise, health responsibility implementation, and smoking showed a positive effect on oral health-related self-efficacy. Therefore, we hope that the results of this study are used as fundamental data for development of continued oral health programs converging systemic and oral health and contribute to the promotion of comprehensive and oral health in adults.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of the clinical learning environment on nursing students' powerlessness and self-efficacy related to clinical practice. Methods: Participants were 149 nursing students from a university who had completed their clinical practicum in B city. Data were collected using self-report questionnaires and analyzed using t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffe's test, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and hierarchical multiple regression. Results: The mean score of the clinical learning environment was 2.99 out of 5 points, the powerlessness related to the clinical practice, 2.96 out of 5 points, and the self-efficacy related to clinical practice, 73.69 out of 100 points, respectively. The regression analysis showed that the clinical learning environment explained 11% of the powerlessness related to clinical practice and 3% of the self-efficacy related to clinical practice in the nursing students after controlling for the general characteristics. Conclusions: The result of this study indicated that it is necessary to improve the clinical learning environment for decreasing the feeling of powerlessness and increasing the self-efficiency related to clinical practice among the nursing students.
