Results: The average item score of NPV, satisfaction, socialization, self-esteem were 3.60, 3.00, 2.74, and 2.71. The NPV of nursing students showed a significantly positive correlation to speciality satisfaction(r=.28-.46), socialization(r=.13-.46), and self-esteem(r=.12-.15). The significant factors influencing NPV of nursing students were service, curriculum satisfaction, social perception satisfaction, leadership & popularity, and sociability, which explained about 37.5%. Conclusions: Therefore, on the basis of this study's result, when nursing educational programs are developed to make positive NPV, these factors need to be considered.

Complex ethical issues of Emergency Medical Techinician (EMT) out-of hospital emergency medical scene and the ER (Emergency Room) behaviors were studied. The survey was conducted by 500 EMT group members working in the field of ambulance work and general hospital and it was about their work ethics, discussions and solutions about the transferred patients, and ethics regarding Do Not Attempt Resuscitate (DNAR). The survey includes work ethics, awareness about the target job, a discussion on the transfer of patients, measures, and deathbed. Discussions about the patient's condition and diagnosis results were majorly absent during patient transportation at the emergency care scene. More than 90% of emergency care transfer were inappropriate. Sometimes, EMT working in the field facing morally unethical problems beyond their responsibility. When EMT, who can not make death diagnosis, received deathbed related DNAR issues, they gone through severe ethical conflicts. The institutional support and therapy for EMT was weak. In Korea, especially in the accident site, ethical issues education is more needed than DNAR prevalence of education and guidance. If ethics training and guidance are given to EMT, a lot of moral errors in the field can be resolved.

In February 2014 Korean Bar Association has amended Professional Ethics Code as to stipulate attorney's duty to protect personal information. While existing Korean law and Professional Ethics Code has made attorney to keep client's confidential information, attorney's newly promulgated obligation has its meaning in that personal information of subject other than client is not protected through confidentiality rules, given that confidentiality obligation is interpreted to protect only client's information relating to representation. Moreover, duty to protect personal information deals with not only disclosure and use of information, which confidentiality rules is about, but also collection and retention process, access to and correction and care of information and even destruction of information. Amid unprecedented theft of personal data in several national banks and other serious leakage reported recently, this paper is going to contemplate the scope and application of the duty to protect personal information with hope to contribute to starting discussion on it.

Construction Management is the overall management of the project as construction manager and the owner are united together. Construction manager's role is to conduct the overall or partial construction administration in the 'design, bid, build' process, in the owner's interests with maintaining technical neutrality. Construction manager is becoming one of new professionals in the building process and the contract defines their roles and the range of services, so high level of ethnics are required. This study suggests the legal status of the construction manager and the ethnic standards and the ethnic's characteristics. In conclusion, firstly, the legal characteristics of the administration of construction management are the delegations contract, the responsibility of negligence and the duty of due diligence, abided by the contract that ties between the owner and the construction manger. Secondly, the administerial characteristics of the construction management are the role of mediator, the service of professional technology, accountability to the owner and publicness. Thirdly, due to these characteristics, as a professional, the standard of ethnic assessment for the construction project manager are intention, act and result, so with the relation to that, morality, deontology and consequentialism have been suggested in this study.

Failure is an important part of engineering practice. Engineers utilize all of their competences and resources in order for their products or processes to meet the initial intention and purpose, and not to fail. However, the technological products sometimes end up with failure. The failure, in many cases, is related to non-technological factors or systems, not just limited to technological factors. Moreover, the evaluation of failure is performed by a variety of agents, including consumers, civic groups, government as well as professional groups. Thus, this study raises an issue that the existing concept of failure, which focuses on the operation of function, is not sufficient enough to properly cover the success or failure of technology required by the modern society. In the recent trends of engineering, new concepts and methods have been developed by expanding the traditional concept or introducing a new perspective of failure, so that engineering failure can be better understood in the mutual relationship between technology and society. This research attempts to suggest a methodology of how the failure of engineering can be utilized and properly combined in the major education, design education and engineering ethics education. Also, it aims to contribute to the quality improvement of engineering education to train engineers who can lead the society with responsibility as well as professional competence.
