  • As the hospitalized patients will be facing new stress situation due to change of his environment from home to hospital it will be very important to understand the psychological stress experienced by hospital patients not only for helping patients in the process of recovery from illness but also fulfil1ing the objective of comprehensive nursing care by understanding the needs of the patients. There is no doubt that it would be very helpful for treatment of patients as well as for improvement of nursing care if we know more about psychological needs of patients and give them adequate support to meet these needs. The study to find out the causes and degree of stress events experienced by hospitalized patients, with the objective of instituting improvement of nursing care program based on the needs of patients, was conducted during the month of September 1974 with 60 patients randomly selected from those admitted to medical and surgical wards at Yonsei Medical Center in that period The questionnaire form included 36 questions which are considered to be stress events for hospital patients, and was devide into five areas namely, such events related to 1) disease itself, 2) hospital environment, 3) nursing care and treatment, 4) communication and human relations, and 5) family and economic problems. The results of the study were as follows: 1. It was confirmed that hospitalization considered to be a stress producing factor and most patients perceived the admission to hospital as a stress factor. 2. According to the rating scale, it was found that degree of perceived stress shows a variation according to the source of stress producing event. 3. No significant differences in the mean values were observed statistically with the perceived stress levels according to demographic and other variables of patients related to hospitalization. 4. Among the questions related to disease itself, "Admission for surgery" was perceived most frequently as a stress event (97.14%) by patients. 5. With regard to the questions related to hospital environment, "death of the patient room-mate" was the most serious stress event perceived by patients (90%) and "living with hospital regulations"was considered to be less serious stress event (23.33%). 6. As for the questions related to nursing care and treatment, "limitation of freedom" was perceived as a stress factor most frequently (70.91%) by the patients and "worry for wrong treatment" turned out to be less frequent stress event (50.0%). 7. As for the questions related to communication and human relations, "difficulty to meet doctors when wanted"appeared to be the most frequent stress event by the respondents (75.86%) , followed by "no explanation about treatment or examination"(75.0%) and "no explanation about nursing care procedures"(71.66%). 8. With regard 111 tile questions related to family and economic problems, "inadequate finances for family living due to hospitalization"and "high cost of hospitalization" were the most frequent cause of stress mentioned by the patients. (80.0%). 9. As a result of application of the stepwise regression analysis, it was found that about 89% was explained by those events associated with disease itself, hospital environment and family and economic problems. By adding those events related to "nursing care and treatment" and "communication and human relation", 100% of stress associated with hospitalization was explained.

  • 탈북자에 대한 관심의 고조로 탈북자에 대한 연구가 증가하고 있지만 아직도 다른 연구분야에 비하면 상대적으로 미약한 편이다. 본 연구는 탈북자를 대상으로 한 연구로는 비교적 많은 대상을 조사하여 과학적인 분석방법으로 적응스트레스와 사회적 지지의 우울성향에의 영향을 추론하였다. 샘플의 크기는 164명이며 분석방법은 t 검증, 변량분석(ANOVA)과 위계적 회귀분석을 사용하였다. 중요한 탈북자의 인구학적인 변인과 탈북 이후의 변인인 중간경유지의 체재기간, 한국에서의 거주기간, 한국에서의 정규교육 유무가 회귀분석에서 통제변인으로 사용되었다. 연구결과에 의하면 구조적 사회적 지지 중 집단참여는 탈북여성이 탈북남성보다 높게 나타나고 있다. 기능적 사회적 지지는 연령에 따른 차이를 보이고 있다. 위계적 회귀분석의 결과를 보면 한국에서의 재교육은 우울성향에 부적인 영향을 미치는 중요한 변인으로 나타나고 있다. 무직상태는 탈북자들의 적응스트레스원으로 나타나고 있으며 구조적 사회적 지지 중 교회, 사회, 탈북자단체 등의 집단에의 참여는 우울성향을 감소시키고 있고 기능적 사회적 지지 중 정서적 지지도 우울성향을 감소시키지만 도구적 지지는 우울성향을 증가시키므로 탈북자들의 상황에 따른 사회적 지지의 적절성이 요청된다.

  • Background: Mortality from breast cancer is high in low- and middle-income countries, in part because most patients have advanced stage disease when first diagnosed. Case-finding may be one approach to changing this situation. Materials and Methods: We conducted a pilot study to explore the feasibility of population-based case finding for breast cancer by community health workers (CHWs) using different data collection methods and approaches to management of women found to have breast abnormalities. After training 8 CHWs in breast problem recognition, manual paper data collection and operation of a cell-phone software platform for reporting demographic, history and physical finding information, these CHWs visited 3150 women >age 18 and over they could find-- from 2356 households in 8 villages in rural Bangladesh. By 4 random assignments of villages, data were collected manually (Group 1), or with the cell-phone program alone (Group 2) or with management algorithms (Groups 3 and 4), and women adjudged to have a serious breast problem were shown a motivational video (Group 3), or navigated/accompanied to a breast problem center for evaluation (Group 4). Results: Only three visited women refused evaluation. The manual data acquisition group (1) had missing data in 80% of cases, and took an average of 5 minutes longer to acquire, versus no missing data in the cell phone-reporting groups (2,3 and 4). One woman was identified with stage III breast cancer, and was appropriately treated. Conclusions: Among very poor rural Bangladeshi women, there was very limited reluctance to undergo breast evaluation. The estimated rarity of clinical breast cancer is supported by these population-based findings. The feasibility and efficient use of mobile technology in this setting is supported. Successor studies may most appropriately be trials focusing on improving the suggested benefits of motivation and navigation, on increasing the numbers of cases found, and on stage of disease at diagnosis as the primary endpoint.

  • Purpose - Recently actively growing franchise systems distribution channel system in which franchise headquarter compared with franchise occupies an important place in distribution channel. Due to this, franchise and franchise headquarter are interdependent on task and in this situation the goal they go after, motivation and objective are probably inconsistent. If so, possibility to participate goal setting process or operating activity of opposite side is becoming bigger and in the end conflict may generate. The purpose of this study is to examine the role of the supervisor's attitude and expertise as moderating factors in the relationship between goal-incongruity/coercive power/role-incongruity and the conflict perceived by franchisee. Research design, data and methodology - This study was intended to verify how the supervisor's attitude and expertise as moderating factors in the relationship between goal-incongruity/coercive power/role-incongruity and the conflict perceived by franchisee. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, some study models and hypotheses have been established through theoretical examinations. Then, using these scales, the researcher completed the questionnaire survey. To test our hypotheses, the survey was conducted from March 9, 2016 for 20 days by random sampling, The study was implemented through a descriptive survey method using a self-administered questionnaire. A survey of 124 restaurant franchisee across Seoul and Gyeonggi Province was performed. A total of 124 completed responses were analyzed. In this study, I used SPSS 22.0 to analyze data and did frequency analysis to see demographic, and general features of the respondents; also did exploratory factor analysis to examine the validity of the items of measurement. Factor analysis was first calculated at a minimum, the number of factors, principal component analysis used when variables are committed to maximising the information with (principle component analysis) and the rotation of factors were angry about the great variable factors than 1.0 by applying Varimax rotation. In addition, I used the value of Cronbach's (Alpha) to examine the reliance of questionnaire items, final analysis the reliability factor can be found both high reliability hayeoteumeuro exceeds over 0.6 and did Multiple regression analysis to test hypothesis and also did hierarchical regression analysis to examine moderating effect. Results - To analyze the proposed model, according to the analysis result, it was found that the influence of goal-incongruity, coercive power, and role-incongruity on the perceived conflict of franchisee is moderated by the supervisor's attitude and expertise. That is, the more the supervisor's attitude and expertise were positive, the more the conflicts of the goal-incongruity, coercive power, and role-incongruity were decreased. It also confirmed previous research's finding that goal-incongruity, coercive power, and role-incongruity positively influence on the conflict. Conclusions - According to the results of this research which reduces the conflict of franchise from the in consistent goal; coercive power, and inconsistent role of superiors, it provides very important implications for franchise headquarter which has franchise system and also give them some suggestion about how to recruit superiors and what kind of training may be fit for the superiors.

  • 최근 고객들은 다양한 IT 채널을 이용해 의견을 자유롭게 표현할 수 있게 되었다. 이에 따라 기업은 고객들의 의견 중 특히 부정적인 의견을 효율적으로 관리하기 위해 큰 노력을 기울이고 있다. 기존의 연구들은 주로 고객의 불만 제기 횟수나 상담시간 등의 양적 데이터를 이용하여 고객 이탈 방지에 관해 연구하였으나, 고객이 실제로 언급한 불만 내용을 분석한 연구는 한정적이다. 따라서 본 연구는 고객 불만 데이터를 중심으로 고객 이탈에 영향을 주는 요인들을 알아보기 위해 이탈-항의 이론(Exit-voice theory)을 바탕으로 보안업체의 고객센터로 접수된 46,235명 고객의 268,364건의 상담내용을 양적인 측면뿐이 아니라 질적인 측면에서도 실증 분석하였다. 감성 분석 방법을 활용하여 상담내용의 감성값을 도출하고, 도출된 감성 사전을 이용해 고객의 만족 여부를 명시적으로 알기 어려운 상담내용의 고객 만족도를 예측하였다. 마지막으로 이 감성 값이 고객의 이탈에 미치는 영향을 로지스틱 회귀분석을 통해 분석하였다. 분석 결과 고객이 만족 여부를 명확히 응답하지 않은 경우에도 감성 분석을 이용해 계산된 각 감성값이 고객 이탈에 서로 다른 영향을 준다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 향후 본 연구에서 제시한 감성 분석을 통한 만족도 예측방법으로 고객의 숨은 의도를 효과적으로 파악하여 고객 불만 관리에 실무적으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

  • The standardized education for medical college students not only provides the opportunity to get the exclusive knowledge as a professional but also is the basis of strong professional authority. Korean Oriental medicine has pursued to standardize the education system and curricula away from the traditional education system since the modernization started. And this standardization has worked as the basis of the status advancement of Korean Oriental medicine. Through the standardization of education system and curricula, Korean Oriental medicine has been professionalized and its social status has been heightened, stabilizing itself within the establishment of institution. After this, Korean Oriental medicine has kept pursuing standardization and professionalization in the educational area. It has achieved the professionalization of curricula reflecting the specificity of Korean Oriental medicine, following the model of western medical education. This paper investigated the attitude of Korean Oriental medical doctors toward the current Korean Oriental medical education. In the survey conducted in this study, how the Korean Oriental doctors view the education of Korean Oriental college in the areas such as 'standardization', 'specificity', 'Korean Oriental medical philosophy', 'responsibility', and 'professional ethics'. And the relationship between the demographic variables of Korean Oriental medical doctors and the educational contents which should be emphasized in Korean Oriental medical school has been examined. The subjects of this study were Korean Oriental medical doctors who work as professionals after graduation of Koran Oriental Medical School and, thus, this is a meaningful study in that the contents of education which the Korean Oriental medical doctors think are needed in practice are discussed.

  • Food neophobia, unwillingness to try novel foods, is a personality trait that can influence children's food preferences and consequently their food acceptance and consumption. The purpose of this study was to determine whether children with food neophobia have poor dietary and growth outcomes compared to non-neophobic children. Subjects were 332 primary school children from 6 randomly selected schools in the district of Hulu Selangor, Selangor. Parents and children were interviewed to obtain demographic, socio-economic, food neophobia and dietary intake information. The children were also measured for weights and heights. One-way ANOVA and Chi-square procedures were utilized for statistical data analysis. Children with food neophobia had higher intakes of energy and most nutrients than average and neophilic children. However, only the mean intakes of protein (p < 0.05) , fat (p < 0.05), vitamin A (p < 0.01) and iron (p < 0.01) were significantly higher in neophobic than average or neophilic children. Compared to neophilic and average groups, a higher percentage of neophobic children met 2/3 of the RNIs for energy $(85.2\%)$, protein $(98.4\%)$ and vitamin A $(72.1\%)$. Mean percentage of carbohydrate energy was lowest$(54.8\pm6.6\%)$ while fat energy $(31.8\pm6.2\%)$ was highest among neophobic children. Neophobic group had the lowest percentage of children $(49.2\%)$ with carbohydrate energy > $55\%$ but highest percentage $(50.8\%)$ with fat energy > $30\%$. For the three study groups, the mean number of servings for all food groups, except grain and cereal, did not meet the Food Pyramid recommendations. Neophobic children consumed significantly more numbers of servings from the meat group than average and neophilic groups (p < 0.01). All study groups had relatively low mean dietary diversity scores but neophobic children had the lowest score $(0.67\pm0.73)$ compared to the average $(0.97\pm0.72)$ and neophilic $(1.98\pm0.81)$ groups. Significant difference in mean dietary diversity scores were only observed between neophobic and neophilic children (p<0.05). Higher percentages of neo-phobic children had low weight-for-height and were at-risk of overweight(p < 0.05). Nutrition practitioners need to understand children's food preferences in their efforts to promote healthful diets for children. To improve children's eating behaviors, parents may need the guidance and support from nutritionists and dietitians that are specific to their needs and their child's situation.

  • 사회 인구학적 특성을 보정 하였을 때 대사 증후군의 예측에 가장 높은 연관이 남녀 모두에서 비만-복부 비만군이라고 보고되고 있으며, 의료기기의 발전과 더불어 방사선에 대한 피폭선량이 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 이에 흉부 X선 검사에서 복부의 비만정도를 가정하여 흉부팬텀에서 앞쪽방향(forward)으로 각도를 부여한 후 기준영상과 비교하여 입사표면선량과 영상의 왜곡 정도를 평가하였다. 흉부팬텀의 각도가 앞쪽방향으로 $5^{\circ}$ 증가할 때 마다 폐의 가로직경은 1.22%, 세로직경은 0.44% 증가하였다. 심장직경은 앞쪽방향으로 $5^{\circ}$ 증가할 때 마다 1.01% 증가, CTR은 0.27% 감소가 관찰되었다. 그 중 폐의 가로직경이 가장 큰 증가, 폐의 세로직경이 가장 작은 증가를 보였고 CTR은 작은 감소를 보였다. 그러나 팬텀에 입사하는 표면선량 측정의 경우, 흉부팬텀의 각도가 앞쪽방향으로 $5^{\circ}$ 증가할 때 마다 6.12%의 비교적 큰 증가를 보였다. 임상에서 흉부 X-선 후전방향촬영을 시행하는 경우, 복부비만 등으로 인해 흉부의 각도가 기울어짐에 따라 영상의 왜곡뿐만 아니라 환자에게 노출되는 선량이 증가되고 재촬영으로 추가적인 방사선 피폭이 발생될 수 있으므로 올바른 위치잡이에 주의를 기울여 환자의 방사선피폭 감소에 노력을 해야 할 것이다.

  • Objectives: Stress is a psychological reaction to stimuli such as anxiety or threat felt by a person either physically or mentally when placed in a difficult situation. Although a relationship between stress and dry mouth has been reported, it remains understudied. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between stress and subjective dry mouth among the elderly living in a rural region. Methods: A total of 214 people aged ${\geq}60years$ living in a rural area were recruited with an informed consent for a cross-sectional analysis. Information about stress and subjective dry mouth was obtained by an interview survey with a constructed questionnaire. Data on other potential confounding factors (including oral factors) such as socio-demographic data, health-related behaviors, the number of remaining teeth, and subjective chewing ability were also gathered at the same time. Logistic regression models were used to analyze the relationship of stress and dry mouth using SPSS. Results: The Crude odds ratio (OR) of stress awareness affecting subjective dry mouth was 2.59 (95% confidence interval: 1.43-4.68). After adjusting for sex, education, income, smoking, and alcohol intake, the adjusted OR was 2.52 (95% confidence interval: 1.30-4.87) which was statistically significant. Conclusions: Elderly people who were stressed had an approximately 2-fold increase in experiencing subjective dry mouth when compared to their stress-free counterparts.
