This study investigated the relationships between experiencing verbal violence and the emotional responses and coping behaviors of dental hygienists who worked in Jeonju between February 24 and March 18, 2017 to prepare strategies for managing verbal violence and establish a healthy working environment for dental hygienists. The following findings were obtained in this study. The dental hygienists primarily experienced verbal violence from patients and guardians (1.67 points). The most common verbal violence type was, "Someone treated me impolitely." The most common emotional response to verbal violence was "anger" (3.52 points). The coping style of most dental hygienists was problem-focused coping (3.28 points), followed by emotion-focused coping (2.75 points). Most hygienists with the problem-focused coping style stated that they resolve the problem through dialogue (3.51 points), while most hygienists with the emotion-focused coping style responded that they just ignore the situation (3.78 points). The relationship between experiencing verbal violence and the emotional responses and coping behaviors of dental hygienists showed a statistically significant positive correlation (p<0.05) with emotional responses and problem- and emotion-focused coping associated with experiencing verbal violence from dentists, patients, and guardians. These findings confirm the need to reduce verbal violence, control emotional responses after exposure to verbal violence, and use more problem-focused coping measures. Dental hygienists must develop interpersonal skills and communication techniques and promote professionalism in their workplace to protect themselves from verbal violence at work.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify relationships between violence response, coping, and burnout among emergency department nurses. Method: This descriptive study using self report questionnaires was conducted from October 1 to October 20, 2008. Participants were 147 general nurses working in emergency departments in hospitals having over 500 beds and located in Busan. ANOVA and Pearson's correlation coefficients with SPSS PC+ WIN 14.0. were used to analyze the data. Results: Scores for violence response, coping, and burnout were 3.08 (1-5 scale), 2.57 (1-4 scale), and 3.22 (1-5 scale) respectively. There were significant differences in violence response and burnout by education, clinical careers, clinical careers in ED, and plans to work in the future, and no significant differences in coping by general characteristics. There was a significant and highly positive relationship between violence response and burnout. Conclusion: The degree of violence response and burnout was comparatively high, while that of coping was average.

Background: The aim of this study was to assess the predictive role of religious coping in quality of life of breast cancer patients. Materials and Methods: This multi-center cross-sectional study was conducted in Tehran, Iran, from October 2014 to May 2015. A total of 224 women with breast cancer completed measures of socio-demographic information, religious coping (brief RCOPE), and quality of life (FACT-B). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the t-test, ANOVA, and linear regression analysis. Results: The mean age was 47.1 (SD=9.07) years and the majority were married (81.3%). The mean score for positive religious coping was 22.98 (SD=4.09) while it was 10.13 (SD=3.90) for negative religious coping. Multiple linear regression showed positive and negative religious coping as predictor variables explained a significant amount of variance in overall QOL score ($R^2=.22$, P=.001) after controlling for socio-demographic, and clinical variables. Positive religious coping was associated with improved QOL (${\beta}=0.29$; p=0.001). In contrast, negative religious coping was significantly associated with worse QOL (${\beta}=-0.26$; p=0.005). Conclusions: The results indicated the used types of religious coping strategies are related to better or poorer QOL and highlight the importance of religious support in breast cancer care.

이 연구의 목적은 장애아모의 스트레스에 대한 대처전략과 적응 간의 관계를 정립하는 것이었다. 특히 장애아모의 적응에 영향을 미친다고 알려진 장애아모와 장애자녀의 개인 및 환경적 특성의 영향력을 통제한 상태에서 대처전략의 적응에의 순수한 독립적 영향력을 분석하는 데에 연구의 초점을 두었다. 서울, 창원, 대구의 장애인복지관에 등록된 장애아동의 어머니 92명을 대상으로 한 설문조사 분석결과, 대처전략과 장애아모의 적응간의 유의미한 관계가 입증되었다. Stepwise multiple regression 분석을 통해 밝혀진 장애아모의 적응 예측에 기여한 대처전략은 직면전략, 책임수용 전략 그리고 긍정적 재평가전략이었다. 직면과 책임수용전략은 장애아모의 적응에 부정적인 영향을 미친 반면, 긍정적 재평가전략은 장애아모의 적응에 긍정적인 영향을 미쳤다. 이들 직면, 책임수용, 긍정적 재평가전략의 적응에의 효과는 다른 예측변수의 영향력을 보수적인 방법으로 통제한 상태에서도 통계학적으로 유의미한 것으로 나타났다. 연구결과를 바탕으로 장애아모를 위한 사회사업개입방안이 논의되었다.
