  • Background: The negative effects of gynecologic cancer on women's health is multidimensional. Sexual problems arising after chemotherapy are decreased interest and vaginal lubrication, lack of orgasm and dyspareunia and sense of reduction in sexual attractiveness in general. The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes that patients who receive chemotherapy for a gynecologic oncology disorder experience in their sexual functions. Materials and Methods: A descriptive/cross-sectional and qualitative study was performed. The Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) was used in order to collect data on sexual capacity. The quantitative data obtained were evaluated with frequency and percentage calculations while content analysis was performed for the qualitative data. Results: All of the information related to sexuality was provided by the physician. Chemotherapy treatment affected sexuality negatively in 55.9%. Since receiving the diagnosis, 52.9% of women had experienced no sexual intercourse at all. Those who had an FSFI score of 30 and below made up 75% of the women. After the content analysis of data obtained during in in-depth interviewing, we focused on three main themes: desire for sexual intercourse, problems experienced during sexual intercourse, and coping with problems. Conclusions: An integrated system where sexual problems can be handled professionally should be present during gynecological cancer treatment.

  • Improving quality of life can be achieved by rehabilitating one socially and restoring their sexual life. Holistic care for persons with disabilities means the rehabilitation nurse intervenes when problems of sexual function are discovered, observed, or expressed. However, most people with chronic illnesses and disabilities must confront prevalent myths about their sexual nature and abilities. These myths often have their basis in the notion, common in our society, that the only people who are sexual are those who are young and beautiful. People who are obese, old, or do not conform to current standards of sexual attractiveness are usually deemed as asexual or undesirable. These narrow sterotypes have been particularly damaging to physically or mentally disabled people. People with chronic illnesses and disabilities often have special needs regarding their sexual behavior. Most of us will confront chronic illness or disability in our own lives to some degree. In addition, illnss or disability can occur at any age. In this study, I discuss some of the special needs of people with chronic illnesses and disabilities and the methods of coping with those needs. I also discuss some of the sexual concerns that people with chronic illnesses and disabilities have in common, and the assessment of sexual function and nursing strategies through literature review.

  • Purpose: This study examined the level of self-esteem and awareness of sexual harassment among college students majoring in physical therapy to discover the status of sexual harassment and the types of and responses to sexual harassment at clinical training sites. Methods: The study participants included 195 college students majoring in physical therapy in Gyeonggi and Chungcheong provinces, who responded fully to the survey questionnaire. The data were prepared through self-reporting on a structured questionnaire and collected from September to November 2018. Results: The difference in the mean value of self-esteem was evident between the two groups investigated. The most common types of sexual harassment were verbal, visual, and physical. The types of damage reported by the participants were emotional, physical, and social. The group of participants who experienced sexual harassment had a high rate of avoidance, while the group of participants who did not experience sexual harassment exhibited a high rate of coping. Conclusion: The incidence of verbal sexual harassment was reported to be significantly higher, and the emotional damage was the most serious. Students should be provided with more specific and realistic preventive education or countermeasures so they can respond more proactively to real situations.

  • 본 연구는 온라인 게임 내 괴롭힘 상황에서의 대응전략 유형에 영향을 미치는 요인에 대해 탐색적으로 조사하였다. 온라인 게임을 이용하는 만 19세 이상의 성인 남녀 416명을 대상으로 게임 내 괴롭힘 경험과 조직대응에 대한 기대 수준, 대응전략 유형을 조사한 결과, 여성 유저는 남성 유저에 비해 더 많은 괴롭힘을 경험하며, 특히 성적 괴롭힘은 주로 여성 유저들만을 대상으로 이루어졌다. 여성 유저들은 남성에 비해 성별가리기, 도움구하기, 회피, 미러링을 자주 선택하였으며, 남성은 자기비난을 더 많이 선택하였다. 구조방정식 모형을 이용해 괴롭힘 경험, 조직대응에 대한 기대, 성별이 각각의 대응전략 유형에 영향을 미치는 경로를 분석하였다. 성적 괴롭힘 경험은 모든 대응전략에 직접적인 영향을 미쳤으며, 조직대응에 대한 기대가 높을수록 유저들은 성별가리기보다는 도움구하기를 선택하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 향후 온라인 게임 내 괴롭힘에 관한 대처방안 마련의 가능성을 논의하였다.

  • Background and Objectives: As one of the most common treatments for breast cancer, mastectomy has adverse effects on the quality of sexual life and sexual functioning in the impacted women. Various strategies have therefore been proposed to resolve their sexual problems. The present study was conducted to determine the effect of sexual rehabilitation using the PLISSIT model in post-mastectomy breast cancer survivors. Materials and Methods: The present quasi-experimental study was conducted on a population of post-mastectomy breast cancer survivors and their husbands. Sample size was calculated as 50 each for intervention and non-intervention groups. The former received sexual counseling based on the PLISSIT model consisting of four levels of intervention: permission, limited information, specific suggestion and intensive therapy, presented in four 90-minute sessions. Data were collected using the Sexual Quality of Life-Female (SQOL-F) questionnaire and the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI). Results: No significant differences were observed in the mean quality of sexual life scores between the intervention and control groups (P>0.05) before the intervention; however, a significant difference emerged between the groups after the intervention (P<0.01). Thus the mean score for sexual functioning in the intervention group was $26.3{\pm}3.76$ before and $30.0{\pm}4.38$ after the intervention (P<0.0001). In the control group, however, the difference between the pre- and post-intervention mean scores was not statistically significant (P=0.713). Conclusion: The present study showed that nurses can use the PLISSIT model in conjunction with chemotherapy and radiotherapy to teach coping and problem-solving skills to women with breast cancer and their husbands and to encourage their participation in group programs for expressing their feelings and attitudes about their current sex life and thus help enhance quality of sexual life and sexual functioning in this group.

  • This study is a descriptive research to investigate the actual conditions under which nurses working in long-term care hospitals are sexually harassed and situations in which sexual harassment occurs and to determine victims' coping methods after being sexually harassed. The period of data collection was from May 13, 2013 to June 14 and the research subjects were 113 nurses working in 10 long-term care hospitals in Busan assigned by convenience sampling. The results showed that sexual harassment of nurses mostly occurred as follows: visual harassment, which involved the perpetrators looking inappropriately at nurses; physical harassment, which involved intentional touching or leaning into the body; and verbal harassment, which involved making sexual jokes and remarks. The development of a prevention program for sexual harassment targeting patients and nurses in long-term care hospitals should be required to enable victims to perceive and efficiently cope with sexual harassment.

  • 본 연구는 원하지 않은 성관계 요구에 대한 여대생들의 반응 유형을 살펴보고, 그 특성을 알아보기 위하여 실시하였다. 이를 위해 수도권과 지방 소재의 2개 대학 여대생 332명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였고, 원하지 않은 성관계에 대한 반응척도에서의 점수 분포에 대한 군집분석을 통해 '주장형'과 '순응형'의 두 집단을 구분하였다. 주장형에 비해 순응형의 성경험, 원하지 않은 성관계 응낙 경험이 많았고, 성관계 응낙의 동기가 높았다. 또한 순응형은 애착이 불안정하고, 거부민감성이 높고 외로움이 많았다. 이러한 결과를 활용하여 원하지 않은 성관계의 부정적인 결과를 예방하기 위한 보건, 교육 및 심리적 시사점과 개입 방안에 대하여 논의하였다.

  • 본 연구는 충북 지역에 거주하는 남성 384명을 조사대상자로 하여 그들의 성매매 태도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하였다. 조사대상자는 3개의 연령군으로 나누어 분석하였고, 자료분석을 위하여 PASW Statistics 18.0을 이용하였다. 본 연구의 주요결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, '30세 이상~45세 미만' 집단과 '45세 이상~60세 미만' 집단은 '65세 이상' 집단보다 성매매에 대해 좀 더 긍정적으로 인식하는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 성매매 태도에 영향을 미치는 요인은 각 집단별로 다른 것으로 나타났다. '30세 이상~45세 미만' 집단과 '45세 이상~60세 미만' 집단은 성 대처행동에서의 표현적 대처행동, 범죄 억제에서의 공식적 억제, 남녀평등의식, 근로활동 여부, 교육수준이 성매매 태도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 반면에 '60세 이상' 집단은 성 대처행동에서의 통제적 대처행동, 범죄 억제에서의 비공식적 억제, 부부관계만족도, 남녀평등의식, 건강상태가 성매매 태도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 실증적 분석결과를 토대로 성매매를 방지할 수 있는 방안을 제시하였고, 이 과정에서 남성의 연령군에 따른 기초자료를 처음으로 제시했다는 점에서 본 연구의 의의가 있다.
