										 Abstract  PDF
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to construct and test a structural equation model on resilience of breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy.Methods Participants were 204 patients with breast cancer who received chemotherapy treatment. They participated in a structured interview, which included social support, depression, symptom experience, self-efficacy, hope, resilience, and infection prevention behaviors. Data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 20.0 and AMOS 18.0.Results Lower depression (γ=-.33, p=.020) and symptom experience (γ=-.31, p=.012) and higher self-efficacy (γ=.32, p=.005) and hope (γ=.48, p=.016) were influenced by higher social support. Greater resilience was influenced by lower symptom experience (β=-.18, p=.016), higher self-efficacy (β=.49, p=.023), and higher hope (β=.46, p=.012), and these predictors explained 66.7% of variance in resilience. Greater resilience (β=.54, p=.009) made an impact on greater infection prevention behaviors. Resilience mediated the relations of symptom experience (β=-.10 p=.013), self-efficacy (β=.27, p=.006) and hope (β=.25, p=.009) with infection prevention behaviors. These predictors explained 24.9% of variance in infection prevention behaviors.Conclusion The findings of the study suggest that breast cancer patientsw ith greater resilience who are receiving chemotherapy participate in increased infection prevention behaviors. Further research should be conducted to seek intervention strategies that improve breast cancer patients' resilience.

										 Abstract  PDF
Purpose
  The purpose of this study was to investigate the influencing factors on health-related quality of life of physically disabled persons.Method Data was collected from 96 persons with a physical disability in three cities in Korea from June to September, 2003. Social support and depression were measured by a Social Support Questionnaire 6 (SSQ6) and Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression questionnaire (CES-D). The Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale was used to measure self-esteem. Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) was measured using Smith Kline Beecham Quality of Life Scale (SBQOL). The SPSS WIN 11.0 version program was used for data analysis.Result There were significant differences of HRQOL according to monthly income and economic status. All subjects had a high level of depression and low self-esteem.Conclusion The findings of this study show that self-esteem and the size of the social support network are significant influencing variables on HRQOL in physically disabled persons. Nursing intervention and counseling programs which improve self-esteem and increase the size of a social support network are needed to promote HRQOL in physically disabled persons.

										 Abstract  PDF
Purpose
To examine the relationships among loneliness, social support, and family function in elderly Korean.Method The sample for this study were 290 elderly Korean who were at least 60 years of age. Data were collected by interview using the translated Korean versions of the Revised University of California Los Angels Loneliness Scale(RULS), Family APGAR, and Social Support Questionnaire 6.Result Subjects were moderately lonely and had moderately functional families. Means for social support were 1.42 for network size and 4.09 for satisfaction. Subjects who lived with their spouses had a larger number of network members than who did not live with spouses. However, living with spouses was not associated with social support satisfaction. The level of loneliness was related negatively to the level of social support network, social support satisfaction and family function in this study. Social support satisfaction and Family function were the significant predictor of loneliness.Conclusion The number of social supporter and satisfaction and family function should be considered in nursing intervention to decrease the level of loneliness in older adults. Further studies and efforts will be needed to reduce the level of loneliness in older adults.

										 Abstract  PDF
The purpose of this study was to develop the educational program based on the self-efficacy theory of 
Bandura(1986) and to identify the effect of the program among women. For this purpose a non-equivalent 
control group, and a pretest- posttest design was used between the experimental and the control group. 
The subjects in this study were female and were over the age 40, 37 in the experimental group and 46 in 
the control group. 
In this study, the educational program was developed to increase the level of osteoporosis self efficacy 
and to prevent osteoporosis. The program consisted of watching, videotapes, telephone contact, lectures, 
and small group discussions. This study was conducted to determine whether the 6 month educational 
program would increase osteoporosis self- efficacy, thus modifying life styles related to osteoporosis increas 
BMD. 
The instruments utilized in this study were the Lifestyle Questionnaire, and the Osteoporosis Self-Efficacy 
Scale. Also, bone marrow density (BMD) on the left wrist was measured by DTX-200. 
The findings are as follows: 
1. A significant decrease in BMD was observed in the control group. By contrast, no significant change in 
BMD was observed in the experimental group. 
2. The Osteoporosis Self-Efficacy was not significantly changed in both the experimental and control 
groups. 
3. In the experimental group, the number of exercise participants and their exercise times were 
significantly increased. Also the amount of caffeine intake was significantly decreased.

										 Abstract  PDF
This descriptive study was designed to identify the factors associated with weight control behaviors among 273 high school girls with normal body weight. The objectives of the study were i) to evaluate subjective obesity and satisfaction with the body shape, ii) to describe the weight control behaviors and the motivation, iii) to reveal the relationships between the weight control behaviors and BMI (Body Mass Index), iv) to investigate the relationships between the weight control behaviors and subjective obesity and satisfaction with the body shape, and v) to investigate the relationships between the weight control behaviors and family support. 
The results showed that 62.6% of the adolescent girls with normal weight perceived that they were fatty and 9.9% thought they were obese. Seventy-five percent of them were not satisfied with their body shape. Eighty percent of the participants reported the main motivation of weight control was to have an attractive appearance. In this study, self-reported weight control methods included dieting (64.8%, skipping or reducing meals), exercise (36.6%), and special dieting (20.1%) such as eating an increased amount of juice or vegetables. 
It was shown that the subjects who were not satisfied with their body shape and perceived themselves as fatty or obese were active in exercise, diet, and other special diets. Subjects who were on diets and special diets had a higher level of BMI than who were not on diet and special diet. Subjects who exercise had a lower level of BMI than who did not exercised. Family support was significantly related to exercise behavior. The research suggested that there is a increasing responsibility for school nurse to instruct on the body shape and weight control behaviors through health education and consultation. Also, the results suggested that it is important to develop proper diet and exercise methods for adolescents girls to maintain their weight and health.

										 Abstract  PDF
The purpose of this study was to investigate the life style, self-efficacy, and bone marrow Density(BMD) in osteoporosis female patients. The subjects were recruited at the four Osteoporosis Clinics. A Convenience sample of 190 women completed a survey instrument which included the Osteoporosis Self-Efficacy Questionnaire, Life Style Questionnaire and demographic items. BMD of L4 was measured by Dual Photon Absor photiometry. The sample ranged in age from 40 to 82 years (Mean=60.28). Eighty-one percent were married and 14.9% were widowed. Forty-four percent lived with spouse and children. Excercise, diet, medication, alcohol consumption, and smoking were measured to investigate the life style. Fifty-seven percent of the subjects exercised regularly. Mountain climbing, brisk walking, and free gymnastics were frequently cited exercises by the subjects in the study. Sixty percent drank one cup of milk and 34.7% had 1.13 cups of coffee in a day. Thirty-nine percent used calcium supplements, 9.5% drank alcohol, and 3.2% smoked cigarettes. Economic status and education level were related to self-efficacy. Age, Economic status, and education level were related to BMD. As a life style, exercise, diet(milk, ice cream, and coffee), and medication(calcium) were associated with self-efficacy. The subjects who exercised regularly and took calcium supplements for a longer time had a higher level of self-efficacy that those who did not. Smoking and alcohol consumption had no relationship with self-efficacy. Excercise, Medication(calcium), and alcohol consumption were related to BMD. The subjects who took calcium supplements for a longer time had a higher level of BMD. Alcohol consumption was not related to self-efficacy but related to BMD. The subject who drank alcohol had a higher level of BMD than those who did not drink. The amount of alcohol consumption was positively related to BMD.

										 Abstract  PDFThe purpose of this study was to determine the effects of loneliness on drinking, smoking, and health perception(symptom pattern & subjective health) in college students. The convenience sample consisted of 417 college students attending four universities. The Revised UCLA Loneliness Scale(RULS) and the Symptom Pattern Scale were used to collect the data. In this study, 84.7% of the subjects used alcohol, with a mean of 5.52 drinks per week, and 32.9% of the subjects smoked for a mean of 5.08 cigarette packs per week during the previous month. The mean score loneliness measured by the RULS was 40.82, indicating that the subjects were moderately lonely. The majority of the subjects had a low level of symptom pattern and evaluated their health as either very good or good. The level of alcohol drinking and the smoking increased and symptom pattern decreased with age. Female students were lonelier than male students in this study. Also, the female students had a lower level of symptom pattern and evaluated their health worse than the male students. Male students consumed more alcohol and smoked more cigarette than female students. Living arrangement was significantly related to the level of loneliness. The subjects who lived with their parents and siblings were less lonely than those who lived with their friends, or relatives or who lived in a dormitory. Age and religion were not related to the level of loneliness. The level of loneliness influenced drinking, symptom pattern, and subjective health. The study found that subjects who were more lonely consumed alcohol less, had a higher level of symptom pattern, and perceived their health worse than those who were less lonely. Smoking was not influenced by loneliness in this study.

										 Abstract  PDF
 Liver cirrhosis is the common cause of death in Korea today. But, if liver cirrhosis patients were treated in the early stage of the disease process, they can have a chance to carry their daily lives with prescribed medical and nursing regimens. Each patient has different health beliefs that there is a different Sick Role Behavior in the process of treatment. In order to increase and control the desired patient's Sick Role Behavior, it is important for nurses to understand the health beliefs influencing Sick Role Behavior.
 The purpose of this study was to determine factors influencing Sick Role Behavior and provide objective and scientific data to health education, treatment and nursing care.
 The subjects for this study were 80 Liver Cirrhosis patients selected from in and out patients of the medical department of four University Hospitals in Seoul, Won Joo and Mok Po city.
 Data was collected from Sep. 18, to Oct. 15, 1984.
 The measurement tool was the questionnaire that developed by the investigator from the literature review based on Health Belief Model.
 The data Collection was done by interview. Analysis of data was done by use Mean, S.D., ANOVA, Pearson Correlation Coefficient and Stepwise Multiple Regression.
 The result of study were as follows:
 1. The significant influencing variables on the Liver Cirrhosis Patient's Sick Role Behavior in general characteristics were Sex, Marital Status, Educational levels, Family's income and Duration after diagnosis.
 2. Between the Sick Role Behavior and Health Belief Model,
 a) The first hypothesis that the stronger degree of Health Motivation, the higher degree of Liver Cirrhosis Patient's Sick Role Behavior was supported (r=0.7892, p=0.0000).
 b) The second hypothesis that the higher degree of perceived susceptibility, the higher degree of Liver Cirrhosis Patients' Sick Role Behavior was supported (r=0.6383, p=0.0000)
 c) The third hypothesis that the higher degree of perceived severity, the higher degree of Live Cirrhosis Patients' Sick Role Behavior was supported (r=0.5869, p=0.0000).
 d) The fourth hypothesis that the higher degree of perceived benefit, the higher degree of Liver Cirrhosis patient's Sick role Behavior was supported (r=0.7535, p=0.0000).
 e) The fifth hypothesis that the lower degree of perceived barrier, the higher degree of Liver Cirrhosis Patient's Sick Role Behavior was supported (r=-0.7709, p=0.0000). 
 f) The sixth hypothesis that the higher degree of knowledge in disease, the higher degree of Liver Cirrhosis patients' Sick Role Behavior was supported (r=0.7538, p=0.0000).
 g) In the correlation among variables, it was found positive correlation except that perceived barrier was negatively correlated.
 3. In the Stepwise Multiple Regression and Independent Variables, the factor "Health Motivation" could account for Sick Role Behavior in 62.28% of the Sample (F=128.786, p<0.01). When the factor "perceived barrier" is added to this, it account for 70.38% of Sick Role Behavior (F=93.479, p<0.01) and the factor "knowledge in disease" is also included, it account for 74.78% of Sick Role Behavior (F=75.131, p<0.01).
 Finally, when the factor "perceived susceptibility" is included, it account for 75.03% of Sick Role Behavior (F=56.329, p<0.01).
