  • The purpose of this descriptive research study was to identify the effects on job satisfaction of nurses working at comprehensive nursing care service units. The study was conducted in five hospitals, two of 250 beds or more in three cities and three of 800 beds. The study subjects were nurses working at comprehensive nursing care service units. A structured questionnaire of 150 questions was distributed to them and 146 were collected. The data collection period was from August 1, 2019 to November 15, 2019. The collected data were analyzed using the SPSS 22.0 program, using x2-test, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and multiple linear regression. Emotional labor and toughness were negatively correlated (r=-.20, p=.018), and emotional labor and job satisfaction were positively correlated (r=.25, p=.004). The predictive variables affecting the job satisfaction of the subjects were the aptitude of the ward service (β=-.35, p=<.001) and hardness(β=.21, p=.009). The explanation of job satisfaction in the variables was 18.2% (F=3.54, p=.009). The study results revealed that the predictive variables affecting job satisfaction were the hardiness and aptitude of the ward service. Therefore, in order to increase the job satisfaction of ward nurses, it is necessary to provide administrative support to control the hardiness of the nurse and to allocate manpower in consideration of the aptitude in the hospital personnel system.

  • This study purposed to analyze dental hygienists' job satisfaction according to their clinical career as an effort to enhance their job satisfaction and quality and to provide basic materials for dental hygienists' effective job performance. For this purpose, we surveyed 120 dental hygienists working at dental hospitals and clinics in Busan during the period from the $1^{st}$ February to $31^{st}$ March 2009 by using a self administered questionnaire. Job satisfaction was measured using a 5 point Likert scale ranging from 'Absolutely yes' (5 points) to 'Yes' (4), 'So so' (3), 'No' (2), and 'Not at all' (1), and a high score indicates high degree of satisfaction. When it testd the reliability of the job satisfaction scale was tested, Cronbach's Alpha (${\alpha}$) was 0.85 which indicates the instrument is sufficiently reliable. Data collected were analyzed with SPSS. We performed frequency analysis in order to examine the subjects' demographical characteristics, and Chi square and one way ANOVA to examine their perception of their job, job satisfaction, and their aptitude and status as a dental hygienists' according to clinical career. The results of this study were as follows. 1. The longer clinical career the dental hygienists had, the more they thought that they had aptitude as a dental hygienist (p<0.05). 2. The dental hygienists' turnover intention was different according to clinical career (p<0.01). 3. The longer clinical career the dental hygienists had, the more satisfied they were when they were working at a dental hospital or clinic equipped with convenience facilities (change room, lounge, etc.) (p<0.01). 4. The longer clinical career the dental hygienists had, the more power to make decisions they had and the more acknowledgement and trust they received from dentists (p<0.01). 5. Satisfaction with duty coordination was low in general, but it grew higher with increase in clinical career (p<0.01). 6. The longer clinical career the dental hygienists had, the more satisfied they were with patients' appreciation of their treatment (p<0.01). In addition, their time and opportunities to discuss with dentists were different according to clinical career, and their satisfaction with the items was higher when their clinical career was long (p<0.01). 7. As to their perception of dental hygienists' potential for development, they generally believed that they had potential for future growth with the expansion of their work scope (M=3.73). The longer clinical career the dental hygienists had, the more satisfied the more power to make decisions they had and the more acknowledgement and trust they received from dentists and their time and opportunities to discuss with dentists when they were working at a dental hospital or clinic equipped with convenience facilities (change room, lounge, etc.). The longer clinical career the dental hygienists had, the more they thought that they had aptitude as a dental hygienist.

  • As a work on the investigation of the processing aptitude of the Korean soybean cultivars, the soybean curd was made from 19 Korean soybean cultivars on a laboratory scale. The yield, proximate composition and rheological and organoleptic property of the resultant soygean curd were analyzed. The yields of soybean curd were ranged from 262.33% to 311.63%, being positively correlated with the soluble protein contents of the recommended soybean cultivars (r=0.9621). The recovery rate of protein in Baekun and Yeunha to the soybean curd was 72.94%, 70.62%, respectively. More than 80% of lipid in soybeans of Yeunha, Dankyung, Danyeob was transferred to the soybean curd. Lightness of the soybean curd made from Baekun, Kwanggyo, Saeal, Hill was higher than that of the others. The mechanical hardness of the soybean curd was strongly correlated with the final moisture content of the soybean curd (r =-0.8312), but not with the protein content of the soybean (r=0.1848). In the organoleptic test for color, texture, flavor and overall preference of the resultant soybean curd, the quality of Dankyung, Namcheon, S-138, Baekun was evaluated highly.

  • This study was performed to examine the processibility aptitude for the addition of Dobyeong to pigmented rice bran extract. Dobyeong from pigmented rice was less bulky and coarser than Dobyeong-added pigmented bran extract. The viscosity and degree of retrogradation in Dobyeong-added Pigmented bran extract were lower than Dobyeong from pigmented rice, indicating that the inhibitory action of retrogradation was higher in Dobyeong-added pigmented bran extract. The scores for springiness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness were increased in Dobyeong-added pigmented bran extract. Dobyeong-added pigmented bran extract showed a decreased natural flavor of pigmented rice and degree of retrogradation, but had higher scores in color values. Dobyeong-added pigmented bran extract was more acceptable in sensory evaluation. Based on these results, the use of rice-added pigmented bran extract instead of pigmented rice in rice-processed food has advantageous effects in terms of the palatability of polished rice and phytochemicals of pigmented non-polished rice. This study will help develop new health-promoting rice products.

  • Currently, most of the science and engineering students who enter the university are required to take general chemistry and general chemistry experimental subjects. However they have different learning bases about learning basic science subjects. Regarding college entrance examinations, the current system is used for selection, so they have different levels of basic knowledge. But, without considering this situation, all of the students in science and engineering are participating in the same basic science class, some learners are relatively easy to adapt to learning, while others experience extreme difficulties and suddenly give up. This is true. The purpose of this study is to develop a scale to measure the ability to learn general chemistry of freshmen in science and engineering at H University in the Seoul Metropolitan area and to analyze what kind of learning backgrounds are related to learners. The results show that gender and major are not related to general chemistry learning major, and it we found that there is a close relationship to the relationship between their major and chemistry, the level of the chemistry learning in the high school, and the selection of chemistry in college entrance examinations. In addition, it was found that the degree of feeling that pre-learning is beneficial to current learning and that it is common with current learning is also a factor related to general chemistry learning aptitude. Therefore, in this study, we propose two ways of presenting and promoting a guide for learning by majors, and establishing a step-by-step learning system considering the level of students.

  • Objectives: Reportedly, the main influential factors on students' adaptation to their college life were social support, stress, adaptation resilience, self-esteem, and satisfaction with their major. This study tried to find the actual influence of these factors on dental hygiene students, and to find an intervention plan for improving their adaptation to college life and preventing their dropout. Methods: An online questionnaire survey had been conducted with 270 dental hygiene students from June 21 to July 2, 2021. The collected data were analyzed with the use of SPSS Program Version 22.0. Results: Firstly, students living together with their family, those satisfied with their major, and those doing a club activity related to their major scored high points in terms of the adaptation to college life. In addition, the adaptation points were high in those whose school entrance motivation was arbitrary, and in those who entered in the dental hygiene department in consideration of their aptitude. Secondly, college life stress was high in those whose entrance motivation was in other persons' will, those who entered in the department due to their school record and occupation, rather than aptitude, those who were also doing a part-time job, and those whose economic level was low. Thirdly, adaptation resilience, social support, and self-esteem were high in those who were highly satisfied with their major, those who entered in the department in consideration of aptitude, and those whose economic level was high. Fourthly, the biggest influential factor on their adaptation to college life was college life stress, followed by self-esteem, satisfaction with major, and adaptation resilience in order. Conclusion: Given all the results, it is necessary to analyze dental hygiene students' levels of stress, self-esteem, social support, and adaptation resilience from the beginning of their entrance, and to operate a school life adaptation program in line with school years. If any customized support and training are given to these students to deal with a variety of stress situations resiliently and wisely and achieve their jobs successfully, it is expected to improve their self-esteem and adaptation resilience, and thereby increase their adaptation to college life.

  • This study is a study to analyze Nativity's occupational aptitude by examining the functions and structures of the planets that make up the Nativity birth chart of Classic Astrology. If the occupation that appears in the birth chart is viewed as an individual's natural occupation, it is analyzed through the strength and weakness of the sign and planets, and the aspect (relationship with the planet). In Classic Astrology's nativity birth chart, there are three major planets when judging occupations: Venus (♀). Mars (♂). It was thought to be determined by Mercury (☿). However, in order to meet the diversity of jobs required in today's highly developed knowledge and information society, there are some shortcomings, so Saturn (♄), Jupiter (♃), Sun (☉), Moon (☽) was added to apply the aptitude for the job. Thus, the native's ASC vocational aptitude could be applied more diversely and broadly based on the relationship between planets and their aspects. As a result, Venus (♀. Venus) means enjoying artistic work that people think is beautiful and making it a pleasure in life, while Mars (♂) means work that requires physical strength and strength, such as working days. Mercury (☿) means using knowledge and brains, and the Sun (☉) plays a role in giving authority to jobs and talents. The Moon (☽) helps the native gain people's trust in his or her profession and talents, Jupiter (♃) helps the native to revive his or her profession and talents through faith, sincerity, fairness, and generosity, and Saturn (♄) can appear as an obstacle that blocks career and talent due to greed, sadness, poverty, etc. As a result of the study, it was found that the native's occupations vary depending on the strengths and weaknesses of the planets and their aspect relationships.

  • This study was made to assess the possibility of predicting the nurses efficiency after graduation in college through their entrance examination and general attitude test results and their academic records. It was observed that generally nurses with the highest academic records were the most efficient in their work after graduation while those with high general aptitude test results came next although their college entrance examination results were comparatively low. Therefore it could be deduced from this study that college entrance examination results alone could not be depended upon in predicting the nurse's working efficiency after bet graduation.
