The purpose of this study was to investigate the awareness and practice on well-being life and well-being related behaviors, and the various factors affecting well-being related behaviors such as purchasing food materials, food habits, eating out and daily routine activities. A survey was conducted by questionnaire and on a 5-point Likert scale. The subjects of this study were composed of 221 students and their 102 parents who were over 40 years residing in the Ulsan area. The results of this study are summarized as follows: Almost half of the subjects (47.4%) responded that they have good health conditions; to keep a good health condition, 41.2% of the subjects were exercising regularly and 20.4% of them kept diet control. In regard to the meaning of well-being, 66.6% of the subjects thought it is the lifestyle for physical and mental richness (children: 70.6%, parents: 57.8%). 30.3% of the subjects answered that the most important part of well-being was food related. The importance order was mental richness, food related things, physical health for children, and for the parents, it was food related things, physical health, mental richness. Most of population (45.8%) answered that they have a willingness for the pursuit of a well-being life. Among the well-being related behaviors, 69.7% of subjects have purchased items (children: 61.5%, parents: 87.3%). 37.2% of the subjects have acquired information from TV. The average well-being practice score was $61.01{\pm}10.36$. Children's scores were significantly lower than the parent's scores (p < 0.001). And the average practice score of 'purchasing food materials,' 'eating out,' 'food habits,' 'daily routine activities' were $15.3{\pm}3.3,\;15.5{\pm}3.1,\;16.8{\pm}3.3$ and $13.4{\pm}3.5$, respectively. Among five types of purchasing food materials, 'purchasing domestic agricultural food' was greatest ($3.64{\pm}0.91$) and 'purchasing of organic or low agricultural chemical food products' was lowest ($3.15{\pm}0.91$). In regard to food habits, 'eating rice and bread made of mixed grains' was greatest ($3.46{\pm}1.12$) and 'eating uncooked food or zen food' was lowest ($2.46{\pm}0.99$). The practice scores were significantly affected by gender (p < 0.05), monthly income (p < 0.01), educational level (p < 0.01), presence of disease (p < 0.05), subjective health condition (p < 0.05), well-being awareness (p < 0.001) and concern with well-being (p < 0.001). Well-being awareness scores and well-being practice scores are related positively. Therefore various programs in well-being education should be necessary in order to boost the authentic perceptions of well-being and well-being oriented behaviors in any socioeconomic situation, such as different generations; industrial companies producing well-being goods for consumer's needs and satisfaction; and government and local community create various conditions for well-being oriented behavior.

Background: One of the main causes of delay in diagnosis of oral cancer is lack of awareness about aetiology and symptoms among the general population. The aim of this study was to assess the knowledge and practice of patients regarding oral cancer and their attitude towards tobacco cessation. Materials and Methods: This study was carried out in Isfahan-Iran in 2014. A 29-item self-administrated questionnaire was designed and piloted and distributed to patients attending dental clinics. Questions were focused on awareness about oral cancer risk factors, signs and symptoms, places in the mouth which are more susceptible and attitude toward tobacco cessation. Chi-square, T-test, ANOVA and logistic regression tests were used for statistical analysis. Results: A total of 546 valid completed questionnaires were obtained. The mean knowledge score of patients was 4.1(${\pm}2.7$) out of 13. Some 80% of patients did not know about early manifestations of oral cancer. Only 18% knew the most likely sites of oral cancer. Only 43.1% and 65.2% of patients reported alcohol and tobacco consumption as the main risk factors but they had a fair knowledge about other risk factors. There was no significant difference in Knowledge level between patients regarding their sex, educational levels and age. Most patents (90%) expected their dentists to warn them about the harmful effects of smoking and showed willingness to quit if recommended. Conclusions: Knowledge about oral cancer was found to be quite low. It seems necessary to increase the level of public awareness using educational programs with cooperation of dentists in tobacco cessation programs.

This study was a qualitative investigation into hemodialysis patients' dietary practices. The purpose of this study was to explore the obstacles and requirements to maintain a recommended diet therapy in hemodialysis patients. Five patients undergoing hemodialysis in the renal chamber of the general hospital were interviewed individually. The interviews were based on an interview guide and analyzed by Giorgi's method of analysis. As a result of this study, five elemental factors and 12 subelemental factors were derived. Derived elements were "difficulty in dietary guidelines", "recognizing necessity of diet therapy", "awareness of importance of diet", "difficulty practicing diet therapy", and "looking for ways to practice diet therapy". Patients not only felt difficulties in practicing dietary guidelines but also recognized the need and importance of diet therapy. Patients seemed to have difficulty practicing meal therapy and eating with their families or others. They were also stressed by the limited selection of dietary components and rapid dietary changes before and after dialysis. However, patients showed a willingness to implement dietary management to improve their quality of life and to practice dietary therapy. In order to improve the practice of dietary management in hemodialysis patients, nutritional education should be focused on long-term dietary habits through continuous education and monitoring, not just one-off education. Moreover, patients should be educated that adherence to dietary control may be less burdensome on their families.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a comprehensive health promotion program for North Korean young adult defectors in South Korea. Methods: The comprehensive health promotion program consisted of nutrition, mental healthcare, physical activity and sexual behavior was developed on the basis of need assessment results. For the evaluation of the program, 70 North Korean young adults who were attending two alternative schools for North Korean defectors were recruited. The program had taken place once a week for 13 or 19 weeks. Effectiveness of the health promotion program was evaluated using anthropometric measurement, 3-day food records and a questionnaires that comprised the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), the Short Form with 36 questions (SF-36) and health behaviors. The surveys were proceeded at the beginning and after the program. Results: After health promotion program, participants' height was significantly increased (p=0.004) and body fat mass (0=0.004) and percentage of body fat mass (p=0.003) were significantly decreased. The number of subjects who ate breakfast alone was decreased whereas the number of subjects who ate breakfast with friends was increased (p<0.001). There were no significant changes in dietary intakes, mental health status and quality of life. North Korean young adult defectors' willingness to participate and interests in the health promotion program were high, however the practice rate was low. Conclusion: The health promotion program could induce interests and willingness to participate, but bring about limited effects on the health behaviors. These results imply that a health promotion program for North Korean young adult defectors should have a long-term strategy as well as short-term plan. Furthermore, it should be based on their health problems, health related behaviors, academic performance and daily life matters.

Purpose: This study aimed conducted to investigate biomedical ethics awareness and attitudes toward dignified death and advance directives among nursing students. Methods: Data were collected through structured questionnaires from 222 nursing students with clinical practice experience, from November 7 to 23, 2015. Data were analyzed by independent t-tests, one-way ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Pearson's correlation coefficients using SPSS WIN 22.0. Results: The scores for biomedical ethics awareness and attitudes toward dignified death were 2.89 and 3.15, respectively. Regarding attitudes toward advance directives (ADs), most students agreed with writing ADs. The main reason given for writing ADs is "I want to receive my treatment of choice." As for the range and explanation method for ADs, 45.7% of participants responded, "do not know well." Regarding willingness toward life sustaining treatment, "only pain control, no life sustaining treatment" was indicated by 83.4% and, "all information about symptoms and prognosis" by 91.9% of participants. For willingness to write ADs, 70.0% of participants responded "yes." Conclusion: Curriculum for nursing ethics should be included in clinical training courses to improve related courses and provide an opportunity to deal with practical problems, such as biomedical ethics, death with dignity, and ADs.

The purpose of this study was to establish the role of master gardener coordinators and develop an education program to enhance their job competencies. To analyze and develop the new job of master gardener coordinator, we used the CBC method for curriculum development. The research findings can be summarized as follows. The analysis result of need and importance of education based on the performance level and demand level revealed 20 core competencies, which were classified into organizational education, learning by experience, individual learning, low-priority competencies for program development, with focus on the importance and need for education. The 17 courses are comprised of Eastern and Western Garden History, Understanding of Community Garden, Garden Aesthetics and Environmental Design, Master Gardener's Mission & Management, Garden Plants, and Garden Design and Practice etc. and the curriculum is 33 hours in total. The master gardener coordinator education program was conducted on 73 rural extension workers and the curriculum was evaluated by those who completed the program. The overall satisfaction was 4.29 and 97.1% of the trainees decided that the program would help them perform their duties. The analysis result discovered that all 20 core competencies increased after the program. As a result of conducting contingent valuation to determine the value of the program, willingness to pay (WTP) per hour was KRW 33,223 and the total WTP was KRW 1.096 million, which, when multiplied by 73 participants, is approximately KRW 80.008 million. This is relatively higher than the budget used (KRW 22.943 million), indicating that the program is worth it.

본 연구는 소상공인이 사업운영 시 경험했던 손실지각이 실패에 대한 두려움을 통해 재기에 어떤 영향을 미치는지를 확인하고자 폐업을 경험한 소상공인 413명을 대상으로 설문조사를 했다. 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 재무적자본, 시장경쟁력, 사회적자본의 지각된 손실이 클수록 실패에 대한 두려움은 컸다. 둘째, 실패두려움이 클수록 재창업 의지는 적었으나, 취업의지에는 영향을 미치지 못하였다. 셋째, 재무적자본, 시장경쟁력, 사회적 자본에 대한 지각된 손실이 실패두려움을 키우고, 이는 재창업 의지에도 부정적 영향을 미쳤다. 그러나 취업의지에 대해서는 시장경쟁력에 대한 손실지각만이 실패두려움을 통해서 취업의지를 강화했다. 이는 시장경쟁력으로 인해 폐업했다고 생각하면 창업보다는 취업을 선택할 가능성이 높다는 것을 시사한다. 넷째, 창업자기효능감이 높은 사람은 낮은 사람보다 손실지각이 실패두려움에 미치는 영향이 적었다. 즉, 창업효능감이 높은 사람은 재창업을 할 가능성이 높다고 볼 수 있다. 한편 연구결과, 사회적자본·재무적자본·시장경쟁력 손실지각 순으로 실패두려움에 영향을 미쳤는데, 소상공인들의 경우 창업시 상권내 경쟁과 위험도에 대한 이해부족으로 실패하는 경향이 큼에도 이에 대한 지각이 가장 낮았다. 또한 지인이나 친척 등 사회적 네트워크를 통해서 자금이나 영업활성화에 대한 지원을 받으려 하기 때문에 사회적 자본손실에 대한 지각이 실패에 대한 두려움에 미치는 영향이 가장 컸다고 추측된다. 본 연구는 이상의 결과를 바탕으로 정책실무 제언을 통하여 창업준비 시경쟁우위를 확보하기 위한 충분한 시장조사가 필요하며, 정교한 사업계획의 수립을 통해 재무적 손실을 줄일 수 있는 방안을 제시하고 있다.
