Objectives : This study looked at the relationship between occupational stress and the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP), to evaluate the effect of occupational stress-related factors. Methods : Data was obtained from a cross-sectional survey of 260 local officials in Gangwondo. The research comprised three questions relating to subjective oral symptoms, an occupational stress measurement tool and an oral health impact factor which was composed of questions. The data was analysed using t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation and path analysis in Amos. Results : Occupational stress had a positive correlation to drinking frequency, Oral symptoms had a negative correlation. And drinking frequency, smoking amount and occupational stress had a positive correlation to oral symptoms. It denoted that drinking frequency, occupational stress and oral symptoms had a negative correlation to OHIP. The path model had an excellent goodness of fit (p=0.07, namely p>0.05). Five 'goodness-of-fit indices' of the model were all above 0.9: GFI=0.987, AGFI=0.952, NFI=0.902, IFI=0.939, CFI=0.934), and its RMSEA was 0.045. Occupational stress and oral symptoms had a firsthand impact on OHIP. In addition, it affected OHIP through the parameters of oral symptoms. Occupational stress exercised a firsthand influence on drinking frequency, drinking frequency exercised a firsthand influence on smoking amount. Smoking amount had a firsthand impact on oral symptoms. Conclusions: Oral health education programs for the development of an improved oral hygiene environment through reduction in drinking and smoking also need to focus on relieving stress by improving workplace culture. In addition, due to good communication is required to reduce occupational stress caused by interpersonal conflict.

Objectives : The aim of this study was to investigate whether and how the symptoms of adult attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) affect the stress and depressive symptoms in Korean soldiers. Methods : Data were collected on 131 subjects through self-report using the Korean Adult Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Scale (K-AADHDS), Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), Korean Wender Utah Rating Scale (K-WURS), and the Brief Encounter Psychosocial Instrument (BEPSI-K). Student t-tests, Pearson Correlation, Logistic regression, and Path analysis were performed. Results : The scores related to adult ADHD symptoms on the K-AADHDS and K-WURS were correlated with stress scores on the BEPSI-K (r=0.529, p<0.001 and r=0.484, p<0.001) and with depressive symptoms on the CES-D (r=0.686, p<0.001 and r=0.628, p<0.001). Scores related to adult ADHD on the K-AADHDS were the most significant risk factors for stress (O.R=1.198, 95% CI=1.104-1.299), and depressive symptoms (O.R=1.306, p95% CI=1.112-1.534). Path analysis on depressive symptoms showed that adult ADHD symptoms affected stress and depressive symptoms. Conclusion : The results suggest that it may be important to consider the evaluation and treatment of adult ADHD in soldiers. Prospective studies with larger numbers of subjects are warranted to further explore the relevance of the present results.

The purpose of this study was to investigate social support buffering stress symptoms and the relationship between stress symptoms and job performance. The data were obtained from questionnaires completed by 529 workers employed in textile or clothing companies. The SPSS package was used for data analysis which included t-test, ANOVA, and correlation analysis. The results showed there were significant differences in the perceived levels of social support according to individual differences such as gender, marital status, length of service, title of current position, and division of responsibility. Workers with a high level of supervisor or co-worker social support were found to have the lower levels of stress symptoms. Social support appeared to moderate the relationship between stress symptoms and job performance.

The purposes of this study are to identify stress and coping strategies of married working women. Data were collected from 185 married working women, living in the metropolitan area. The results were as follows: 1. Low family function and high occupational stress affected stress symptoms of married working women significantly, but type A personality was not related to the stress symptoms. 2. The more the married working women perceived stress symptoms, the more they utilized organizational coping strategies. 3. The women who used personal coping strategies effectively also used more effective organizational coping strategies. 4. Two paths were statistically significant : family function$\rightarrow$stress symptoms, occupational stress$\rightarrow$stress symptoms. But the others were not. Based on those results, the model was modified by adding four paths : A type personality$\rightarrow$personal coping strategies, occupational stress$\rightarrow$organizational coping strategies, personal coping strategies$\rightarrow$organizational coping strategies, organizational coping strategies$\rightarrow$stress symptoms. 5. The modified model produced a better fit than hypothetical model(GFI=0.9985, ACFI=0.9893, NFI=0.9920, NNFI=1.1330, RMSR=0.0030, PNFI=0.1984). In conclusion, the stress management for married working women needs to focus on both organizational coping strategies and personal coping strategies.

Purpose: The purposes of this study were to identify musculoskeletal symptoms and to investigate factors associated with musculoskeletal symptoms in small and medium sized hospital nurses. Methods: The data were collected from 206 nurses working in Jeonnam. We used self administration questionnaires of KOSHA GUIDE H-9-2012 for musculoskeletal symptoms, PWI-SF for psychosocial stress, KOSS for job stress, and HPLP-II for health behaviors. The collected data were analyzed using the $x^2$, t-test, and logistic regression analysis in SPSS Ver. 23.0. Results: Sixty-six percent of the subjects had musculoskeletal symptoms. The shoulder had the highest symptom at 38.3%, followed by lower back at 32.5%, and neck at 29.1%. The mean and standard deviation score of psychosocial stress were $24.06{\pm}6.01$, those of job stress were $2.38{\pm}0.23$, and those of health behaviors were $2.14{\pm}0.39$. The items that were significantly different according to musculoskeletal symptoms were career ($x^2=6.67$, p<.036), one week overtime ($x^2=7.27$, p<.026), subjective health status ($x^2=4.29$, p<.038), and psychosocial stress ($x^2=7.99$, p<.010). In logistic regression analysis, career, and psychosocial stress were found to affect musculoskeltal symptoms. Conclusion: It is necessary to conduct preventive intervention to reduce musculoskeletal symptoms according to career and psychosocial stress for small and medium sized hospital nurses.
