1980년대말 남녀고용평등법의 제정으로 성차별적 고용관행에 대한 제도적 제재가 선언된다. 1980년대 후반까지 결혼퇴직제가 보편화되었었고 이러한 관행은 여성의 경력 단축과, 임금이나 업무배치에 부정적 영향을 미쳤다. 1980년대 후반부터 가속화된 여성 고용에 대한 사회제도적 변화가 고학력 여성의 노동시장참여에 어떠한 영향을 미쳤는가를 본 연구에서는 살피려고 한다. 구체적으로 젊은세대에서 교육효과는 어떻게 변화하였으며, 결혼이나 가족이라는 여건이 이들 세대에서는 취업과 관련하여 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 검토하려고 하였다. 이것을 위해 여성개발원의 2001년 취업실태조사 자료가 이용되었다. 노동시장참여와 관련하여 젊은세대에서 어떤 변화가 보이고 있다. 본 연구에서 알 수 있는 것은 교육효과의 변화이다. 이전 세대의 부정적 교육효과는 사라지거나 긍정적인 것으로 나타나고 있다. 물론 아직도 교육효과가 미약하게 나타나고 있지만, 이러한 변화는 주목할 만하다. 전반적으로 가족 여건이라는 것이 여성이 일하는 것을 어렵게 하고있다. 기혼여성의 경우 미혼여성과는 달리 여성 자신의 일에 대한 태도가 노동시장 참여에 영향을 미치지 않는다. 놀라운 것은 가족이라는 맥락에서는 일에 대한 여성자신의 의견은 중요하지 않지만, 남편의 의견은 중요하게 나타난다는 것이다. 이것을 통해서 아직도 젊은세대에서도 여성의 의견이 남편의 의견에 종속되고 있다는 것을 것을 알 수 있다. 34세 이하 젊은 세대 여성을 고려할 때, 가족이라는 맥락에서는 교육효과도 크게 약화되는 것을 알 수 있다. 펄은 세대에서도 대졸이상의 학력이라는 것이 결혼하지 않았을 때는 여성의 일과 관련하여 의미 있게 작용하지만, 가족이라는 맥락에 처하면, 별 의미가 얼다. 물론, 젊은 세대에서 교육과 관련된 긍정적인 변화가 엿보이기는 하지만, 과거 세대와 마찬가지로 여전히 결혼이나 가족의 여건은 여성취업에 부정적으로 영향을 미치고 있으며 고학력 여성의 경우 이것의 영향을 더 많이 받는다.

This study verified the differences between the groups according to the socio-demographic factors, the usage pattern of mobile phone, and the perceived cost and the expected benefit. The analysis of the relative influence of those relevant factors was followed. The summaries of this study are as follows; First, the high level factors in purchasing smart phones were the perceived cost and the expected benefit pointed over 3.82. It means that they arc interested in smart phones highly, and if they can support to buy smart phones and situations can be permitted, they would like to buy them.

The results showed that those preference and the purchase intension were measured high at the group of the 20s-30s, the married, and the higher educational level of collage students. Third, expected benefit on smart phones was shown to be divided into two characterized factors through factor analysis. One was 'functional expected benefit' and the other was 'emotional expected benefit'. The functional and the emotional benefit on the using of smart phones were presented high level in group of over graduated students. Forth, the results of the stepwise multiple analysis, which was carried out to find out the influencing factors on the preference and the purchasing intension to smart phones, showed that the most effective factor was the functional expected benefit. The self-expressive propensity, and the education level were followed sequentially. The purchase intention was influenced by both of the functional and the emotional expected benefit. The result of this study shows that the level of the consumer's perceived cost(economic, psychological) and the expected benefit were measured high at the same time.

Three measurement tools of self-report- questionnaires developed by researcher used. For the content validity of the questionnaires, two sessions of panel discussion and a pilot test were done and finally factor analysis was done with Varimax method. Analysis of data was done with SAS program using frequency, percentage, means, standard deviation, Pearson's Correlation Coefficients, t-test and ANOVA. The obtained results were as follows : 1. The surveyed nurses perceived the importance of patient education at higher level with mean score of 4.08 among 5 point than their perception of practice( mean score : 3.42). 2. There was positive significant correlation(r=.29, p=0.0001)between nurses' perception of the importance of patient education and it's practice 3. Among the teaching contents for patients, 'information of diagnostic procedure and operation' and 'orientation of hospitalization' were perceived most important. And 'preparation for discharge' and 'understanding of disease and health promotion' were perceived least important 4. Among the teaching contents for patients, 'orientation of hospitalization' and 'information of diagnostic procedure and operation' were perceived highly performable. And 'understanding of disease and health promotion' and 'preparation for discharge' were perceived least performable. 5. Three types of interfering factors were identified as patient-factor, situational factor, nurse-factor. The mean degree of impediment with the interfering factors was at average level(3.09 among 5). The patient and situational factors of impediments were more interfering than nurse- factor for teaching patients. 6. In older age(p<.05), married state (p<.05), higher educational status (p<.01), higher clinical experience (p<.01) and higher position(p<.01), the score of perceived importance of patients education was more high. 7. In older age(p<.01), higher clinical experience(p<.001) and surgical unit (p<.01), the score of perceived performance of patients education was more high. In conclusion, in order to activate patient education practice in the clinical setting, the continuing education for patients education should be more emphasized and the effective teaching methods and materials should be developed to help patient teaching. And an organizational support such as budgeting for patient education and reimbursement system should be administrated.

This study was attempted to provide us with basic information on how to improve understanding with patients for operation, and to offer then better nursing and treatment. This kind of study will help scientific application to nursing practice and operating room. The data was collected by interviewing 29 patients who underwent the elective surgery under the general anesthesia at Y hospital in Seoul. The interview ran from October 15 to December 15, 1989. The research instrument was a anxiety measurement device (SAAI) originally developed by Spielberger, et al and modified by Jung-Tack Kim. 1. Hypothesis Testing Hypothesis one was that there would be a difference in state anxiety level according to a time difference in watiting for operation. This hypothesis was rejected(state.anxiety level one hour before operation P>.05, r-.747, State anxiety level half an hour before operation P>.05, r-.1550, state anxiety level just before operation, P>.05, r=.1099). However, state anxiety, evel appeared to be associated with a longer watiting period, like one day before operation (P<.05, r-.4628). Hypothesis two was that there would be a difference according to state anxiety level of patients for operation. This was rejected. (Change of blood perssure in systolie P>.05 r=.1082, Change of blood pressure in diastolic P>.05, r=.088, Change of pulse rate, P>.05, r-1.909) 2. Examining trait anxiety and state anxiety levels, the average level of trait anxiety was 42.034, and the average level of state anxiety one day before operation was 43,000. The average level of state anxiety was averaged 42.356 in a waiting room for operation. 3. Examining the state anxiety level by time period, the one hour before was 42.379 the level half an hour before 42.276, and the level just before operation 42.414. The low level of state anxiety was due to the fact that premedication was not eliminated. 4. Age and time period like one day before operation was related to state anxiety level (F=5.271, P<.0.01) and blood pressure in waiting room for operation. That is, state anxiety level and blood pressure of patients one day before operation appeared high. Sex was relation to changes of blood pressure ; the blood pressure of male patients appeard higer than of female patients. A marital status was also related anxiety level one hour before operation the married patient for operation showed a higher state anxiety level than that of the unmarried patient for operation. Education was similarily related to trait anxiety level in which highly educated patients show lower levels of trait anxiety than poorly educated ones. Motive for hospitalization was related to state anxiety level for patient one hour before operation (F=6.464, P<.05) likewise, patients who are supposed to undergo operation hastily showed higher levels of anxiety than patients who expect elective surgeries.
