This study is a descriptive research to examine the effects of meta-cognition and resilience on clinical reasoning ability of nursing students who have completed the simulation education integrated with problem based learning. The study subjects were senior nursing students who had experienced SIM-PBL education, and data was collected by using a structured questionnaire from September to December 2021. The collected data was analyzed employing descriptive statistics, correlation, and hierarchical regression analysis using the SPSS program. The results demonstrated that meta-cognition and resilience had a significant positive correlation with clinical reasoning ability. The chief factors influencing on the clinical reasoning ability of nursing students were as follows: confidence in participating in the SIM-PBL education, meta-cognition, and resilience. In addition, the three factors explained the clinical reasoning ability at a high level of 75%. The clinical reasoning ability of nursing students may be cultivated by applying internal reinforcers of self-confidence, meta-cognition, and resilience into a SIM-PBL simulation.

Data collection was conducted from September to October 2020, and 184 students attending universities in D City and C province in Korea completed the self-report questionnaire. The collected data were subjected to Pearson's correlation and hierarchical regression analysis using the SPSS 26.0 program. In this study, depression and rejection sensitivity of university students were identified as significant influencing factors on interpersonal competence, and rejection sensitivity confirmed a moderating effect on the relationship between depression and interpersonal competence. The results of this study provide basic data on the mechanisms of action between depression, rejection sensitivity, and interpersonal competence of university students, and suggest that elements of depression and rejection sensitivity should be included in intervention programs to improve university students' interpersonal competence.

This study is a descriptive research study conducted to identify evaluative concerns perfectionism, entrapment and depression in university nursing students, and to identify the factors influencing depression. The subjects of the research were students enrolled in two major departments in G city. Statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and band regression analysis were used for data analysis. Research results indicated that the factors influencing depression to university nursing students were external constraints (β=.414, p<.001) and socially imposed perfectionism (β=.174, p<.001), and these explained 24.9% of the subject's degree of depression. In particular, it was found that external Entrapment had the greatest effect by 22.7%. Therefore, based on the results of this research analysis, it is recommended to develop and manage various extracurricular programs that can reduce the external entrapment and socially imposed perfectionism so that depression can be managed, reduced and prevented depression of university nursing students at an early stage.

This study is a descriptive research study to identify work stress, resilience, nursing performance and influencing factors so that nurses in small and medium-sized hospitals can flexibly cope with rapidly changing medical environments. The subjects of the study were 219 nurses working at four small and medium-sized hospitals located in S region, and the survey was conducted using a structured questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis. There was a negative correlation between work stress and nursing performance in small and medium-sized hospital nurses (r=-0.150, p<.05), and a positive correlation between work stress and resilience (r=0.160, p<.05). Nursing performance showed a positive correlation with resilience (r=0.351, p<.01). The variable affecting nursing performance was resilience (𝛽=.231, p<.01), and its explanatory power was 17.4% (Adj.R2=0.174, p<.001). Therefore, in order to improve the nursing performance of nurses, it is necessary to increase resilience.

In this paper is a descriptive survey research to compare correlations among the job stress, job satisfaction, emotional labor, and turnover intention of nurses between the comprehensive nursing care service and general wards. The subjects include total 185 nurses that consisted of 93 nurses at the comprehensive nursing care service ward and 92 at the General Ward. Results of this study are as follows; The study analyzed correlations among the job stress, job satisfaction, emotional labor, and turnover intention of nurses at the comprehensive nursing care service and general wards and found that both the groups showed significant positive correlations between job stress and emotional labor, between job stress and turnover intention, and between emotional labor and turnover intention, which indicates that higher job stress led to higher emotional labor and that higher job stress and emotional labor led to higher turnover intention. These findings raise a need to increase the manpower standard, offer proper rewards, and improve the work environment and treatment for nurses, who play the pivotal roles at the hospital organization, to solve their increased job stress and emotional labor issues and ultimately ensure the successful expansion of the comprehensive nursing care service system. There should be multifaceted efforts to reduce the turnover of skilled nurses that are capable of providing quality nursing service.

Data collection took place from September 1, 2022, to October 31, 2022, and data were collected using the IBM SPSS/WIN 26.0 program. The findings of this study indicated a positive correlation between a sense of calling and professional commitment (r=.43, p<.001), as well as a positive correlation between a sense of calling and ethical sensitivity (r=.38, p< .001). Furthermore, ethical sensitivity was found to have a positive correlation with professional commitment (r=.59, p<.001). Mediation analysis revealed that in the relationship between nursing students' sense of calling and professional commitment, ethical sensitivity acted as a complete mediator, explaining 36% of the variance. Therefore, ethical sensitivity emerges as a crucial variable influencing nursing students' professional commitment, highlighting the necessity for specific strategies to enhance it.

This study is a descriptive research study conducted to confirm the relationship between nursing students' confidence in performing core basic nursing skills and major satisfaction. The study participants and data collection were selected from March 26 to April 9, 2023, for 63 nursing students, and t-test, ANOVA, and correlation analysis were performed using the SPSS 27.0 version for statistical analysis. As a result of the study, nursing students were mainly observed(56.85%), rather than performing core basic nursing skills(38.03%), and 50% of the core basic nursing items were higher than the average score of confidence in performing core basic nursing. The participants who responded that they were satisfied with nursing showed high confidence and major satisfaction in performing core basic nursing, and the two variables showed a high positive correlation (r=0.55, p<0.001).

This study aimed to examine climacteric symptoms, health promoting behaviors, aging anxiety in middle-aged women and determine whether these variables influence aging anxiety. The subjects were 228 middle-aged women. SPSS 27.0 was used to perform t-test, ANOVA, correlation, and stepwise multiple regression analysis. The average age of the participants was 53.25 years old. Climacteric symptoms (r=.552, p<.001), health promoting behaviors (r=-.290, p<.001) were significantly correlated with aging anxiety. The participants' perception of their health status (β=-.132, p<.001), climacteric symptoms (β=.464, p=.016), and health promoting behaviors (β=-.146, p=.005) were significant predictors of aging anxiety, and the explanatory power of these variables was 33.7.0%.
