Purpose: The degree of caring behavior of oncology nurses is a crucial factor in the care provided to patients with cancer. In this study, we aimed to investigate factors related to oncology nurses' caring behavior, including their resilience and professional quality of life. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted with 107 oncology nurses at an urban tertiary hospital from May 18 to 24, 2015. We used a self-report questionnaire to measure resilience, professional quality of life, and degree of caring behavior. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, correlations, and multiple regression analysis using SPSS/WIN 20.0. Results: Oncology nurses presented with low levels of resilience and caring behavior, and high levels of compassion satisfaction, burnout, and secondary traumatic stress. There was a statistically significant relationship between the degree of caring behavior, resilience (r = .43, p < .001), compassion satisfaction (r = .51, p < .001), and burnout (r = - .42, p < .001), as well as between secondary traumatic stress and burnout (r = .34, p < .001). Factors associated with oncology nurses' degree of caring behavior were compassion satisfaction (t = 6.00, p < .001) and educational level (t = 3.45, p = .001). Conclusion: This study demonstrates that oncology nurses' degree of caring behavior is related to their professional quality of life and education. These findings suggest that enhancing oncology nurses' healthy coping strategies at both the individual and organizational levels can further develop holistic nursing care. Additionally, it is necessary to examine the factors affecting nurses' compassion satisfaction and to try to promote this aspect.

오늘날 고령화와 경제여건의 변화 등에 따라 노후준비의 필요성이 더욱 증대되었다. 본 연구는 소득의 불안정성과 노후준비정도와 현재생활의 만족도간의 관련성을 분석하는데 목적이 있다. 먼저 선행연구 검토를 통해 주요 변수를 추출하고 이를 설문화하여 설문조사를 통해 수집된 자료를 구조방정식 모델로 통계분석하였다. 분석결과 현재의 소득위험이 노후준비정도를 매개로하여 현재생활의 만족도에 영향을 미치는 간접효과는 통계적으로 유의수준 0.05하에서 유의미한 음(-)의 영향을 미치나 현재의 소득위험이 현재생활의 만족도에 영향을 미치는 직접효과는 통계적으로 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 이에 연령변수와 부양가족 수를 각각 2분하여 추가분석을 실시하였다. 결과를 요약하면 현재생활의 만족도를 높이기 위한 선행요건으로 노후준비정도가 상당한 역할을 하고 노후준비를 위해서는 현재 소득의 변동성(위험)이 중요한 역할을 하는데, 이 요인(잠재변수)들 간의 관련성 정도는 연령, 부양가족 수의 많고 적음에 따라 세부적으로는 다소간의 차이가 있었다. 본 분석 결과는 현재 각 개인의 상황 속에서 만족스런 삶을 준비하기 위한 기초자료를 제공하는데 의미가 있을 것이다. 한편 본 연구는 횡단면적 분석만을 실시한 한계점을 갖고 있으며 향후에는 시계열적 변화를 분석하고자 한다.

The current study explores a possible mechanism through which game users' integrated sociopsychological factors lead to a higher level of life satisfaction, based on desire-fulfillment theory as well as hedonic and eudaimonic approaches to happiness. Using data from a survey of 789 game users in South Korea, we tested the relationships of psychological variables (self-esteem and game and life-efficacy), social variables (bonding and bridging social capital), and demographic variables (age and gender) with life satisfaction. Results show that self-esteem and game efficacy were an important antecedent to the degree of users' life satisfaction. Both bonding and bridging social capital increased life satisfaction. The importance of perspectives as well as their implications for game users and further associated research is explored.

Methods: Participants were 106 patients over 60 years who had undergone PCI in a university hospital. Results: The mean scores for stress, depression, mindfulness, and life satisfaction were $9.10{\pm}2.53$, $7.77{\pm}3.32$, $88.57{\pm}8.47$, and $17.40{\pm}5.38$ respectively. There were statistically significant differences in life satisfaction by main source of income (F = 4.74, p = .004) and perceived health status as compared with peer (F = 4.80, p = .010). Depression (p < .001) explained 38 % of the total variance of life satisfaction, and the explanatory power increased to 42 % when mindfulness (p = .035) was added. There were significant correlations among stress, depression, mindfulness and life satisfaction of the patients. Conclusions: Depression and mindfulness were significant influencing factors on subjects' satisfaction in life. To enhance the life satisfaction of the elderly patients after PCI, it is necessary to reduce depression and to develop mindfulness-based interventions.
