Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors affecting those commitment to a plan for exercise among Korean with chronic diseases by Pender's health promotion model. Methods: The participants in this study were 315 Korean adults over 18 years of age with chronic diseases who were recruited in hospitals or public health centers in Korea. The instruments used in this study were individual characteristics instrument, Rosenberg's self-esteem scale, Ware's perceived health status, Profile of Mood States and Pender's commitment to a plan for exercises scale. Results: The results of analysis showed that Korean adults with chronic diseases were perceived with relatively low commitment to a plan for exercise while they were perceived with moderate self-esteem, health status, and mood. There were significant differences in the commitment to a plan for exercise according to education level and economic level. The positive relationship between self esteem, perceived health status, and commitment to a plan for exercise were significantly correlated. The experience for exercise was the most influential variable on commitment to a plan for exercise accounting for 40.3% among Korean with chronic diseases. Conclusion: For planning a targeted strategy to increase regular exercise among Korean adults with chronic diseases, nurses have to assess the prior experience of exercise of them. These nursing activities lead to improve their quality of life and encourage to control their symptoms.

This study was conducted to identify the differences in physiological and psychological effects between artificial and natural plants. Artificial and natural plant pots consisting of the same species and forms were prepared, and 40 subjects were asked to look at these plants for 3 min, and psychological responses were measured. Semantic differential, profile of mood states, and positive and negative affect schedule were used as psychological response measurement scales. As a result, regardless of the difference in plant material, as plants were viewed, negative emotions decreased in psychological terms. This result suggests that artificial plants can replace natural plants and that the use of artificial plants can be improved if planting natural plants is difficult because there is no difference in the psychological effects provided by artificial and natural plants.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the factors influencing symptom experience in patients with liver cirrhosis(LC). Method: A descriptive correlational study design was used. A convenience sample of 129 subjects was recruited from the gastroenterology department at two university hospitals in Seoul, Korea. Symptom experience in LC was measured with the instrument developed by the researcher based on Theory of Unpleasant Symptoms(Lenz et al, 1995) and the Child-Pugh Score, the Korean version of Profile of Mood States, and the Family Support Questionnaire were used to identify the factors influencing symptom experience. Results: The mean score of symptom experience was relatively low(M=41.67, SD= 24.71). Among individual symptoms, fatigue had the highest score in all dimensions. Fatigue, abdominal distension and/or peripheral edema, muscle cramps, dry mouth, and change in appearance were explored as symptoms needing management. In the regression analysis, symptom experience was found to be influenced significantly by anxiety/depression($R^2=.418$, p=.000) and the severity of LC(Child-Pugh Score)($R^2=.125$, p=.000). These variables explained 54.3% of the variance in symptom experience(F=63.607. p=.000). Conclusion: It suggests that nurses need to take into consideration psychological factor as well as physiological factor in symptom management for patients with LC.

POMS의 우수한 효용성을 국내에서도 활용하기 위해 K-POMS를 제작하여 그 신뢰도와 타당도를 점검하였고 만족할 만한 수준의 신뢰도와 타당도를 확보하였다. K-POMS의 요인 특성은 POMS와 비교하여 놀랄 만큼 유사한 특징을 보여준다. 단지 혼란-당황의 요소가 확실하지 않고 그 항목들이 여러 감정 요인에 나뉘어 부하되는 요인 분석 결과는 한국인의 정서와 그 표현이 영어권과 다를 가능성을 시사한다. 임상적으로 다양한 집단과 다양한 연령에 대한 자료를 보완하면 정신측정학적으로 훨씬 용이하게 사용할 수 있을 것이다. 나아가 이 연구에 나타난 제한점을 넘어서 한국인의 정서에 맞는 척도 항목을 개발하고 이 연구에서 나타난 '무기력과 불확실성' 요인이 일관성 있는 특성인지를 확인하는 작업이 필요할 것으로 생각한다.

목 적 : 본 연구는, 교대근무자에 있어 세 교대근무간의 수면양상과 자율신경계활동성을 비교함으로써, 근무자들은 어떤 근무시에 가장 적합하다고 느끼는지 그리고 교대근무자의 심리적, 신체적 문제점의 특성은 무엇인지를 알아보고자 하였다. 또한 본 연구는 근무자들이 교대근무에 좀 더 효과적으로 적응하는데 도움을 주고자 기획되었다. 방 법 : 3일 정도 연속적으로 한 교대근무를 한 후 1일 휴무, 그 다음에 다른 교대로 넘어가는 빠른 순환주기의 교대근무자 51명이 연구에 참여하였다. 각 대상은 수면일기를 작성하였으며 수면잠복기, 수면기간시간, 수면 중 깨어난 횟수를 세 교대근무간에 비교하였다. Epworth 졸음척도와 시각아날로그척도를 사용하여 졸음을 평가하였으며 기분상태는 기분상태척도로 평가하였다. 심박수변동성과, 스트레스 호르몬(아드레날린, 노르아드레날린) 및 그 대사산물을 측정하여 자율신경계 활동성을 살펴보았다. 심박수변동성에는 저주파영역의 스펙트럼 파워, 고주파영역의 스펙트럼 파워, 저주파영역의 파워와 고주파영역의 파워간의 비가 포함되었다. 결 과 : 수면기간시간은 오후근무시 가장 길었고 수면잠복기는 밤근무시 가장 짧았다. 깨어났을 때의 각성도는 오전근무시 가장 저하되었고 작업 중의 각성도는 밤근무 중 가장 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다. 밤근무시 근무자들은 신체적인 피곤감과 인지기능의 저하를 호소하였다. 심박수변동성의 비교를 통해 오후근무시 부교감신경계가 가장 활성화된다는 것을 알 수 있었으며 아드레날린 및 노르아드레날린 분비도 통계적인 의미는 없었지만 오후근무시 가장 감소하였다. 결 론 : 본 연구결과 오후근무가 교대근무자에게 가장 적합한 것으로 나타났다. 오전근무시에는 빛을 아침에 투여하고 밤근무시에는 근무 중에 빛을 투여하면 교대근무에의 적응이 촉진될 것으로 생각된다.

Across sectional study was performed to evaluate the chronic effects on central nerve system(CNS) of cumulative exposure of complex organic solvents, using neurobehavioral test. Subjects were 66 (male) dock yard painters of some large ship industry which is located in Ulsan. The neurobehavioral test battery used in this study was NCTB (Neurabehavioral Core Test Battery recommended by WHO(World Health Organization), which consisted of 7 items-Profile of mood states (POMS), Simple reaction time, Santa Ana dexterity test. Digit span, Digit symbol, Benton visual retention test and Pursuit aiming. The subjects were classified by 3 groups according to duration of employment(group 1 ; less than 9 years, group 2 ; 10-14 years, group 3 ; more than 15 years). The results of performance were analyzed considering of work duration, age, educational level, alcohol drinking, smoking and testing time as confounding factors. Benton visual retention test, pursuit aiming correct dot and sum of dot showed significant differences among the groups, and decreased with increasing work duration. It indicated that the mean scores of performance ability were lowering according to work duration. Besides, the tests that didn't show statistical significances but showed linear trends were depression-dejection, vigor, fatigue of POMS, slowest time of simple reaction time and digit span forward. Most of the neurobehavioral test items were correlated with age and educational level. After controlling of confounding factors-age and educational level, the results followed ; digit span backward was different significantly. Tension-anxiety, depression-dejection, anger-hostility of POMS, SD and slowest time of simple reaction time, Santa Ana dexterity test non-preferred hand, digit span forward, Benton visual retention test and pursuit aiming correct dot decreased with increasing of work duration. The correlation analysis was done in order to find out the relationship between subjective symptom and the scores of neurobehavioral core test battery. According to the results of analysis there were no items that had statistical significant relationship(p<0.05).
