Both the elderly participating in senior welfare center or community center and home care elderly people were included in survey. The study results are as follows: First, there were significant influence of the elderly's stress on depression. Second, the mediating effect of the elderly's resilience between stress and depression was verified. Both the direct effect of stress on depression and indirect effect of stress through resilience on depression were verified. Third, the moderating effect of the elderly's social activity between stress and depression was verified. It was found that the harmful effect of the elderly's stress on depression could be alleviated by participation in social activity. Through the study result, the elderly's resilience which is internal resource, is needed to be strengthened to alleviate depression derived from stress. Also, the elderly's active participation in social activity is needed to be encouraged to prevent the harmful effect of the elderly's stress on depression.

본 연구는 소방공무원들의 임파워먼트 수준과 사회적지지 수준이 직무스트레스와 직무스트레스 하위요인들에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 대구 경북지역 소방공무원 230명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구결과는 전체 조사대상 소방공무원들의 사회적지지 수준이 높을수록, 임파워먼트 수준이 높을수록 직무스트레스는 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 직무스트레스 하위요인들 중 특히 직무자율성은 임파워먼트에 의해서만 영향을 받았고 보상부적절과 직장문화는 사회적지지의 영향을 가장 크게 받았다. 그 외 근무경력과 출동횟수가 직무스트레스와 직무스트레스 하위요인들에 유의한 영향을 미치는 변수로 나타났다. 직무특성에 따른 집단별 직무스트레스 수준에 대한 분석의 결과는 화재분야가 구급분야보다 유의하게 높은 직무스트레스를 보였으며 주당 4-7회 출동횟수가 주당 8회 이상 출동횟수보다 유의하게 높은 직무스트레스를 나타내었다. 연구결과에 따라 사회적지지와 임파워먼트 증대를 초점으로 하는 직무스트레스와 세부직무스트레스 관리 프로그램 개발을 제안하였다.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify the factors influencing post-traumatic stress disorder in intensive care unit nurses in dedicated hospitals for coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) during the peak of the outbreak. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional correlational design. A total of 100 participants completed questionnaires comprising the Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R), coping strategy indicator, social support, and post-traumatic growth. Post-traumatic stress disorder was classified as normal, mild risk, and high risk. Data were analyzed using 𝛘² test, Fisher's exact test, Kruskal-Wallis test with multiple comparison analysis, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multinominal logistic regression analysis. Results: Fifty seven nurses (57.0%) had a high risk of post-traumatic stress. Higher levels of post traumatic stress were associated with higher levels of social support seeking, and higher levels of avoidance, and lower levels of social support from supervisors. Higher post traumatic growth was correlated with higher social support for seeking coping, and problem solving coping strategies, and social support from supervisors and colleagues. Post-traumatic stress risk was associated with social support seeking and supervisors' social support. In addition, a higher risk of post-traumatic stress was related to COVID-19 work duration and supervisors' social support. Conclusion: Supportive programs, including increasing social support and building coping skills, may be suggested to safeguard the mental health of critical care nurses during the pandemic.
