Purpose: The study was to develop a tailored education and coaching program (TECP) for cancer patients, and to identify the effects of TECP on pain severity, daily living impairment, barriers on pain management, self-efficacy, and pain management satisfaction. Methods: A randomized controlled trial was used. Patients referred to an oncology nurse specialist from oncologists for pain management were randomly assigned to TECP (25) or usual education program (UEP, 22). The intervention was offered by educating the method of taking opioid medication, managing opioid-induced side effects, reducing pain misconceptions and enhancing self-efficacy for communicating with a medical team on cancer pain severity, and pain-related impairment. Patients completed questionnaires before the education program and on the next visit 3~4 weeks later. Data were analyzed by SPSS 19.0 program using percentage, frequency, mean, standard deviation, x² test and independent t-test. Results: At all levels, pain severity improved significantly in the experimental group-worst pain (8.16 to 3.80, p<.001), average pain (6.16 to 2.52 p=.008), and least pain (3.32 to 0.96, p=.038)-but not in the control group. Pain management satisfaction also showed significant differences (t=2.93, p=.005) between experimental (4.70±0.49) and control (4.17±0.73) groups. Interference with daily living, barriers to managing cancer pain, and self-efficacy for managing pain improved in both groups but there were no significant differences. Conclusion: The findings suggest that TECP should be considered for outpatients who need cancer pain management.

The purpose of this study is to propose measures for social work practice to enhance the happiness of middle-aged married men and women by identifying the effects of family stress and social support resources (formal and informal support resources) on marital satisfaction among mid-life married couples. Subjects were selected through purposive sampling among married men and women aged between 40 and 59 and living in Seoul City and Gyeonggi province. The study results are follows. First, the average score of family stress was 3.06 points (SD=.56), slightly higher than the median value of 3 points. Of all subscales of family stress, the subjects experienced the most stress from family relationships, followed by financial problems, health and loss of families, and work-family compatibility. In regard to social support resources, the mean value of all social support resources categories was greater than the median. Among the subscales, informal support (family support and support from other people) was found to be higher than formal support. The level of marital satisfaction was higher than the median, and the score was 3.21 points (SD=.78). Second, in order to explore differences in marital satisfaction according to family stress and social support, differences in marital satisfaction were analyzed by grouping subjects who scored high, middle, and low levels of marital satisfaction. According to the results, marital satisfaction was statistically significantly higher in the group that experienced less family stress (F=6.25, p<.01). With respect to social support, marital satisfaction was statistically significantly higher in the group that received high social support (F=29.68, p<.001). Third, according to the analysis of factors affecting marital satisfaction in middle-aged married men and women, subjective economic status, family relationship stress, economic stress, and family support showed statistical significance. The higher the subjective economic status and the lower the family relationship stress and economic stress levels, the higher the marital satisfaction among middle-aged married men and women. In addition, the greater the family support, the higher the marital satisfaction. The results of this study underscore the need to improve family relationships in middle-aged married couples and to distribute family life education programs that can strengthen family support resources. For example, family relationship enhancement programs are currently performed, including "Family School for Middle-Aged Baby Boomers" and others as part of the Healthy Family Support Work regarding the promotion of marital satisfaction of middle-aged couples. In addition, continuing effort is warranted to include content on strengthening family support resources, maximizing the effectiveness of programs, and promoting service accessibility.

Purpose: This study has aimed to examine the relationship among self-esteem, Activities of Daily Living (ADL) and depression reported by hospitalized elderly patients with chronic diseases. Methods: A descriptive correlation study by means of a self-report questionnaire or face-to-face interview was used to collect data from 119 elderly patients who were hospitalized in a General Hospital from January 5 to February 25, 2010. Their levels of depression was measured using Short-Form Geriatric Depression Scale, self esteem using Jeon's, and activities of daily living using K-ADL. Results: 80.7% of the subjects experienced depression. Depression correlates with self-esteem (r=-.67) and ADL (r=.45). The influencing factors on depression were self-esteem, ADL, subjective health status, and family support satisfaction ($R^2=.57$), while self esteem in itself explained 45% of variance in depression. Conclusion: These findings indicate the importance of early detection of depression, which starts from the admission of patients and the continuing evaluation/management in daily life after discharge to ensure their well-being and quality of life. The development of program empowering self esteem, ADL and subjective health status with adequate family support during hospitalization and in daily life is indispensible.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of application of the contents of Korean Information Center of Agricultura Safety and Health (KICASH) with 80 subjects(male: 60, female: 20) from different provinces nationwide in 2011. Subjects were classified according to their sex and familiarity of computer and then categorized into 3 groups with poor, medium and good by self-evaluation. The test for the effectiveness and satisfaction about KICASH was conducted with likert scale from very bad (1point) to very good (5point). Subjects generally tended to give 4 points to contents. And they gave support to KICASH in that they showed about 4 point with intention of application of KICASH for safety and health irrespective of familiarity of computer. However, as they received the information passively, it will be needed to develop more interesting and various contents which they could get more helpful information for their health and safety actively using two-way information communication system in future. Therefore the study can helps improve farmer's health and safety through developing advanced health and safety information system.

본 연구는 독거노인의 자아존중감 및 우울과 관련된 변인들을 탐색하고 그 변인들간의 관계를 밝혀내는데 목적을 두고 있다. 연구 참여자는 서울에 거주하고 있는 평균 연령 76.17(SD=7.60)세인 676명의 남녀 노인들이었으며, 그들 중에 독거노인은 378명이었다. 자아존중감 척도(Rosenberg's Self-Esteem Scale), 자기평가 우울척도(Zung's Self-Rating Depression Scale), 생활활동 수행 목록(The Index of Activities of Daily Living), 및 사회적 지원 목록(Social Support Index)을 참여자에게 주었다. 주요 통계분석은 2(성별) × 2(거주형태) 이원공변량분석과 상관분석, 그리고 회귀분석이었다. 분석 결과, 독거노인은 동거노인에 비해 자신의 건강이 좋지 못하다고 평가했고 경제 수준이 낮았으며 사회적 지원을 받지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 남성 노인들은 여성 노인들보다 자녀가 있으면서도 혼자 사는 경향이 있고 사회적 지원은 덜 받는 것으로 나타났으며, 남녀 독거노인 사이에는 독거 이유에도 차이가 있었다. 여성 독거노인의 자아존중감 수준이 남성 독거노인의 자아존중감 수준보다 낮았으며, 독거노인이 동거노인보다 더 우울해하고 있었다. 자아존중감과 우울에는 성별과 거주형태의 유의한 상호작용이 존재해 독거노인의 경우에서만 자아존중감의 유의한 성차가 있고, 여성에서만 거주형태별로 우울 수준에 차이가 있었다. 회귀분석 결과, 신체기능 수준과 건강지각이 독거노인의 자아존중감을 예언할 수 있는 변인으로 나타났고, 신체기능 수준과 건강지각, 그리고 사회적 지원이 독거노인의 우울을 예언할 수 있는 유의한 변인으로 밝혀졌다. 이런 결과는 노인의 자아존중감과 우울에 대한 신체기능 수준과 건강지각, 그리고 사회적 지원의 역할을 재확증하는 것이고 한국 독거노인의 삶의 질에는 성이 결정적인 변인이라는 것을 밝혀낸 것이다.
