Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between digital literacy and depressive symptoms, as well as the mediating role of social support in this relationship, among older women (60 years and older) in Korea. Methods: This study analyzed data from the User Experience Evaluation Survey, which was conducted by the Ewha Institute for Age Integration Research to improve the accessibility of digital information for older adults research from May to September 2020. Survey data on depressive symptoms, digital literacy, and social support were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression. Results: The factors influencing depressive symptoms among older women included work status (B=-.19, p=.01), social support (B=-.17, p<.001), self-rated health (B=-.13, p=.003), and digital literacy (B=-.10, p=.005), which had an explanatory power of 33%. In addition, social support played a mediating role in the relationship between digital literacy and depressive symptoms (B=-.05, SE=.02; 95% CI, -.09 to -.02). Conclusion: The findings of this study support the need to develop and apply interventions that promote digital literacy among older women to mitigate depressive symptoms by increasing social support.

Purpose: The objective of this research was to measure health literacy level of the visitors of a university hospital's out patient clinic and to consider its influence factors. Methods: Subjects were 400 visitors in an outpatient clinic of a university hospital. By using self-report questionnaire which included Newest Vital Sign (NVS) and general information inquiry, the level of health literacy and its influence factors were measured. The data were analyzed by using t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation. Results: The NVS score of subjects was $3.54({\pm}1.91)$ out of maximum 6 scale. The factors that have significant relationships with the health literacy were age, sex, marital status, educational background, monthly income, health information source, number of diseases, number of medications and drinking status. Participants who are men, in old age, having lack of supportive relationship, having low levels of education, having low income, having more comorbid diseases & medications, tend to have lower NVS score compared to others. Conclusion: We suggest extending our research results for evaluating the risky group to improve the health literacy and to develop the strategic methods for better health outcomes.

Food literacy (FL) refers to the ability to understand and utilize food information. This concept consists of functional (FFL), interactive (IFL), and critical food literacy (CFL). In today's massive information-driven society, FL needs must be paid attention to as a determinant of health along with health literacy. This study sought to identify the FL of Korean adults, and to analyze the association between FL and nutritional status. Data was collected through an online self-reported survey among 1,355 Korean adults aged 19 to 64 years, stratified by gender and age. An χ² -test, student's t-test, ANOVA, analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), and multinomial logistic regression were performed using IBM SPSS 25.0. There were significant differences in the subjects' FFL, IFL, and CFL according to their gender, age, residence area, work type, and monthly income. Furthermore, it was confirmed that subjects with a higher nutrition quotient (NQ) grade also had higher FLs. Additionally, FFL and CFL contributed to improving the NQ grade. This study is meaningful in that it investigated the FL of Korean adults and provided data to identify populations that are particularly vulnerable to a lack of FL. In addition, it was confirmed that FL can have a positive effect on the nutritional status of adults. In conclusion, this study suggests the possibility of using FL as an intervention strategy to improve nutrition.

Since developing digital technology requires new skills in digital literacy, digital competence also has become a keystone in English classes. This study explores three aspects of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners' digital confidence: information and data literacy, communication and collaboration, and digital content creation, based on the European Digital Competence Framework for Citizens (DigComp). The participants were 150 Korean college students enrolled in two general English classes, and their English proficiency levels were from basic to advanced; each level consisted of 30 participants. In order to assess their digital confidence, I designed a Google survey form and collected data during two semesters. The survey results revealed that the participants had highest digital confidence in information and data literacy and overall, the female participants showed higher digital confidence than their male counterparts. It also showed that the learners' English proficiency and computer skills are important factors.

본 논문에서는 DigComp를 분석하여 데이터 리터러시 수준을 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 DigComp의 구성요소인 데이터 리터러시, 소통 및 협업, 디지털 콘텐츠 제작, 보안, 문제해결 중 데이터 리러터시 영역의 세부 요소를 살펴보았다. 데이터 리터러시는 탐색·검색·필터링, 평가, 관리 3가지로 세분되어 있었고, 각각은 수준에 따라 기초, 중급, 고급, 전문가의 4단계로 구분되어 있었다. 그리고 3가지 영역의 수준을 분석하여 각 수준을 대표하는 핵심 단어를 추출하였다. 향후 이를 바탕으로 한 구체적 적용방안에 관한 연구가 이뤄지길 기대한다.

지능정보사회에서 디지털 리터러시는 필수사항이며, 리터러시 교육이 활발히 시행되고 있다. 디지털 리터러시 수준이 올라갈수록 프라이버시 우려가 증가하는데, 이는 디지털 서비스 이용을 저해할 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 스마트기기 활용 역량과 프라이버시 우려와의 관계에서 온라인 사회참여 활동과 정보 사실성 판단 능력의 매개효과와 프라이버시 리터러시의 조절효과를 검증하였다. 스마트기기를 사용하고 온라인 활동을 하는 13세 이상의 동일 패널 7,737명의 2020년과 2021년 실시한 한국미디어패널 조사 자료를 활용하였다. 주요 변인의 비교 및 분석을 위해 SPSS(v26.0)와 PROCESS Macro(v4.1, Model 15)를 이용하였다. 2020년과 2021년의 비교에서 스마트기기 활용역량과 프라이버시 리터러시는 증가 하였지만, 프라이버시 우려와 정보 사실성 판단 능력, 온라인 사회참여 활동은 감소하였음을 보았다. 분석 대상 전체와 통제 집단에서 프라이버시 우려와 정보 사실성 판단 능력의 평균간 차이가 상대적으로 크게 감소하였으며, 통계적으로도 그 차이가 유의미하다. 연구모형 검증 결과, 스마트기기 활용역량이 프라이버시 우려에 미치는 영향은 2020년과 2021년 모두 증가하는 유의적인 효과를 확인하였으며, 온라인 사회참여 활동의 매개효과와 프라이버시 리터러시의 조절된 매개효과도 확인되었다. 정보 신뢰성 판단 능력은 2020년에 유의적이지 않지만, 2021년에는 유의한 매개효과와 조절된 매개효과도 확인되었다.

Expectations and demands for the paradigm of healthcare systems are changing in response to changes in the characteristics of population properties and industrial structures; therefore, it is time to prepare for the career diversification of nursing students who have mainly entered the clinical field. The study tested the pathway of financial literacy on the relationship between entrepreneurship and nursing start-up attitude among nursing students. We obtained data from 177 South Korean nursing students through email and mobile phone. The analysis of the mediating effect was performed by hierarchical multiple regression. The SPSS WIN program was adopted. Entrepreneurship and financial literacy of subjects had a significantly positive effect on nursing start-up attitudes. Financial literacy indirectly affected the relationship between nursing students' entrepreneurship and nursing start-up attitude, and significance was verified by Process Macro. Financial literacy can mediate between entrepreneurship and nursing start-up attitudes. These factors will provide an important basis for nursing students to grow into talented people with business capabilities. Nursing education should strengthen the foundation that promotes business competence in nursing students.

The historical aspects, policies, institutions, awards and measurement results of scientific literacy and scientific culture development in Indonesia have currently attracted further exploration. This paper utilizes secondary data research, further analyzed by employing the Supplementary Analysis technique. The results revealed that the tradition of writing and publishing scientific journals in Indonesia has existed ever since the Dutch East Indies with the journal's publication entitled 'Natuurkundig tijdschrift voor Nederlandsch Indië' in 1850. To date, Indonesia has owned 5,990 nationally accredited journals. Policy support has been provided at the national and regional levels, despite limitations in cultivating literacy and reading habit. From the institutional perspective, Indonesia provides a wide array of public support, including the effort of the Ministry of Education and Culture for advocating the national literacy movement and the availability of a reference database and scientific access established by the National Library; the Indonesian Institute of Sciences, and the Ministry of Research and Technology. Similarly, in the award-related perspective, the Indonesia government has granted awards to individuals or groups and local governments engaging in the cultivation of scientific literacy and scientific culture. However, among the global measurements for literacy development in Indonesia (in 2020) recorded that three indicators scored less than those in 2019.
