This study was conducted to compare physical fitness, self-esteem, organizational commitment and transformational leadership among non-smoker and smoker ROTC cadets. This study used 425 questionnaires from male grade 3 and 4 ROTC cadets of 12 universities located in P city and G-do. Data were collected from May 1 to June 23, 2017. The data were analyzed by SPSS/WIN 23.0 using a ${\chi}^2-test$, independent t-test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient. Running 3km (t=3.26, p=0.046), self-esteem (t=1.06, p=0.003), organizational commitment (t=2.57, p<0.001) and transformational leadership (t=3.98, p<0.001) were significantly lower in the smoking group than the non-smoking group. There was a positive correlation between self-esteem, organizational commitment, and transformational leadership in both non-smokers and smokers. Therefore, to practice smoking cessation for the health promotion of ROTC cadets smokers, it is necessary to develop an effective education and intervention program that can enhance self-esteem, organizational commitment and transformational leadership.

This study examined and analyzed the related study, Library Law, comparison of Korean Library Standards and IFLA guidelines and the status of domestic hospital library provision in order to grasp the regulations and status of domestic hospital library. As a result, the related study is very insufficient compared to overseas, and the Law and Standards for hospital libraries are not clearly and in detail in the Library Law. It is impossible to grasp the statistics and actual condition of the hospital library through the Yearbook of the Korean Library. The Korean Library Standards and IFLA guidelines also show differences in composition and key elements. According to the survey, 49 hospitals (1.3%), 8 hospitals (0.2%), 5 nursing hospitals (0.1%), 4 children's hospitals (0.1%), and 1 military hospital (0.0%) were among the 67 hospitals surveyed. Of the 49 general hospitals, 42 were advanced general hospitals, of which 17 were providing hospital libraries. The most urgent issue for providing hospital libraries is the revision of the Library Law and the Korean Library Standards, and the mandatory provision of hospital libraries, publicity through library magazines, and related research should be carried out.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the general characteristics, work overload, work life balance, job engagement of working adolescents and the factors affecting job engagement. We examined 1,772 working adolescents under the age of 24 years in response to the fifth Korean Working Conditions Survey. Technical statistics, t-test, ANOVA, and regression analysis were used. The study results showed that men had high-level job engagement when they were professional, self-employed, 41-52 hours per week, and never experienced employment discrimination. For women, job engagement was high if they were under 19 years of age, college graduates, professions, temporary work, 41-52 hours a week, and had never experienced gender discrimination, and employment discrimination. In addition, the job engagement of both men and women was higher when work overload was less and work life balance was good. This study is meaningful in that it examined the job engagement of working youth by using the Korean Working Conditions Survey representative of Korean workers. However, it has limitations in that it does not take into account specific circumstances such as academic status or military service. Based on the study results, it can be used as basic data for developing educational programs to manage job engagement and understanding of working adolescents.
