Purpose: This study was performed to provide basic data for nursing intervention plan to improve health related to task by examining whether nurses' burnout is related with job stress, job satisfaction, social support, and self efficacy in hospitals. Methods: The participants were 320 nurses who work at 5 different university hospitals with individual agreement for this study. The questionnaire were provided to the subjects. Data analysis was done by Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression were used. Results: Estimated regression model of burnout of nurses was statistically significant (F=119.88, p<.001). Major factors which affect burnout of nurses were job stress (${\beta}=.54$), job satisfaction (${\beta}=-.31$), and social support (${\beta}=-.20$) which explained 53.4% of burnout of nurse. As a result of examining the assumption of the regression, all results were satisfactory with the assumption of the regression equation. Conclusion: Based on the results of the study, It is nacessary to reduce job stress and increse job satisfaction and social support in order to reduce burnout of nurse. Job stress management may be needed mostly because job stress was the highest level of prediction against burnout.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between the hemodialysis unit nurses' experience of verbal abuse, job stress, burnout, and turnover intention, and to identify the explained variances for turnover intention. Methods: The research design was a descriptive survey using a probability sampling. The data were measured using self-report questionnaires from 231 hemodialysis unit nurses in seven cities in Korea and were analyzed with SPSS 20.0. Results: The mean scores were $2.45{\pm}0.62$ (out of 5) for experience of verbal abuse, $2.40{\pm}0.26$ (out of 4) for job stress, $2.31{\pm}0.48$ (out of 4) for burnout, and $3.16{\pm}0.05$ (out of 5) for turnover intention. There were significant correlations among the experience of verbal abuse, job stress, burnout, and turnover intention within the hemodialysis unit nurses. Factors influencing turnover intention were 'burnout' (${\beta}=.42$, p<.001) and 'job stress' (${\beta}=.17$, p=.015)which explained 42% of the variance (F=15.98, p<.001). Conclusion: Results suggest that in order to reduce nurses' turnover intention, nurse managers should explore strategies to reduce nurses' burnout and job stress in nurses in hemodialysis units.

The purpose of this study is to understand verbal violence and stress experienced by nurses, to identify measures to reduce such stress, and to present basic information needed for performing their professional roles. The results of this study are as follows. First the types of verbal violence by doctors, nurses, patients and their caregivers included "they speak roughly" and "they speak in a commanding tone" when they were marked on the basis of 5 points. In other words, speaking roughly is highest in frequency. Second, the main harmers of verbal violence were doctors, nurses, and patients and their caregivers, and thus verbal violence by nurses was most frequent. Third, the emotional reactions of the nurses after verbal violence were "angry", "frustrated", and "depressed" in order. As a result of analysis of effects on the emotional reactions of nurses. Fourth, the job stress of the nurses after experience of verbal violence was show as "frequently struggling with friends", "frequently struggling with family members", and "frequently drinking" in order. Fifth, based on general characteristics, the emotional reactions and job stress of nurses after verbal violence were significant on age, acdemic years, and current workplace, and the job stress of nurses after verbal violence was significant on marriage, clinical career, department of working, and types of working. This study may be significant in that it suggests methods of intervention, safe job environment, and administrative institution to relieve the emotional reactions of nurses after verbal violence, to reduce their stress, and to support the emotional reactions of nurses experienced verbal violence.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of firefighters' job stress and emotional labor on their turnover intention, and analyze the main factors impacting turnover intention in this context. Methods: Based on a descriptive survey study design, we administered a structured questionnaire among 231 firefighters at one fire station in G metropolitan city from November 13 to 27, 2020. Results: Regarding job stress, participants showed differences based on marital status (p<.05), health status (p<.001), total service period (p<.05), and assignment (p<.05). For emotional labor, a significantly higher rate was observed for female than male firefighters (p<.05), with differences also observed in age (p<.001), health status (p<.001), total service period (p<.05), rank (p<.001), and assignment (p<.05). Further, for turnover intention, significant differences were noted with respect to age (p<.001), education (p<.01), health status (p<.001), total service period (p<.01), work unit (p<.05), rank (p<.001), and assignment (p<.05). A significant correlation was found between job stress and emotional labor and turnover intention. Regarding the factors affecting turnover intention, significant differences were noted based on education, rank, job stress, and emotional labor; the explanatory power was 53.9% (F=13.806, p<.001). Conclusion: Tailored support programs must be developed to ease firefighters' job stress and reduce their emotional labor to facilitate effective manpower management and reduce firefighters' turnover intention.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of patterning on the stress distribution in the bone tissue using the finite element analysis (FEA) model. Materials and Methods: For optimal comparison, it was assumed that the implant was axisymmetric and infinitely long. The implant was assumed to be completely embedded in the infinitely long cortical bone and to have 100% bone apposition. The implant-bone interface had completely fixed boundary conditions and received an infinitely big axial load. von Mises stress and maximal principal stress were analyzed. Conventional thread and 2 or 3 patterns on the upper and lower flank of the thread were compared. Result: The surface areas of patterned implants were increased up to 106~115%. The thread with patterns distributed stress better than conventional thread. Patterning in threads may produce more stress in the implant itself, but reduce stress in the surrounding bone. Stress patterns of von Mises stress were favorable with patterns, while the maximal principal stress was increased with patterns. Patterns in the lower flank showed favorable stress distribution. Conclusion: The patterns in implant thread reduce the stress generated in surrounding bone, but the number and position of patterns were crucial factors in stress distribution.

Objective : To investigate the sources, extent and related factors in South Korean doctors. Methods : The study subjects were 934 doctors in Taegu, Kyungpook Province, Korea(540 independent practitioners, 105 employed at hospitals and 289 residents in training). Information concerning job stress was obtained using a 9-item questionnaire. Information regarding related factors such as demographic characteristics(age, sex, marital status), perceptions on the socioeconomic status of doctors and working conditions(work time, on-call days per week) was also obtained by self-administered questionnaire during April and May, 2000. Results : Major sources of job stress included clnical responsibility/judgement factor, patient factor and work loading factor. The job stress score of residents was the highest among three groups. The score was lower in older doctors. The score was low among those who thought doctors' socioeconomic status was not good. The longer the work time, the higher the job stress score was. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to control for the mutual influence of independent variables. In regression analysis, the score of residents was higher than practitioners. Work time and socioeconomic status perception had negative effects on job stress score. Conclusion : The average job stress score of the doctors was high. Age, work type, working conditions and perceptions of socioeconomic status were found to besignificantly related to job stress score. Although the job stress of doctors is somewhat inevitable due to the nature of the doctor's job, control of work time, development of coping tools and other intervention methods are needed to reduce job stress of doctors. Further studies are required to understand the characteristics of iob stress and reduce the job stress of doctors.

Objectives: This study was conducted to analyze the impact of safety/health managers' experience of trauma case on their post traumatic stress disorder and the mediation effects of job stress and the moderated mediation effects of social support. Method: Using a structured questionnaire, data were collected from 241 workplace safety/health managers with experience in trauma case. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS(IBM. Ver.26.0) and verified through SPSS PROCESS Macro (Ver. 3.4). Results: The trauma case experience and the job stress, which is a mediation variable, had a statistically significant positive effect on post-traumatic stress disorder, and the job stress had a positive mediation effect in the relationship between the trauma case experience and post-traumatic stress disorder. Social support had a statistically significant negative moderation effect in the relationship between the trauma case experience and job stress; social support had a moderated mediation effect on the indirect effect of a job stress on the post-traumatic effect through a trauma case experience. Conclusion: The above findings suggest that work-related job stress management is important in order to reduce safety/health managers' post-traumatic stress disorder caused by the experience of trauma case, and that social support is essential to reduce the job stress, which can later be used as a basis for further studies.
