Background : The goal of this study was to examine the health behaviors of nurses and provide basic information on health promotion for nurses. Materials and Methods : A self-administered questionnaire survey was completed by 340 nurses working at a university hospital in Daegu, Korea from March 6 to March 30, 2006. The questionnaire included demographic characteristics, working environment, health behaviors, self-assessed health status, and the practice of health promotion activities according to the work group(shift group vs. non-shift group). Results : There were significant differences in 'regular diet', 'drinking', 'ordinary health management', 'regular exercise', 'leisure activities', 'rest', and 'feeling of fatigue' between the two groups. The score for the practice of health promotion activities of the non-shift group was 121.9, which was higher than the 115.4 for the shift group. By field of practice of health promotion activities, there were significant differences in 'self-realization' and 'nutrition' between the two groups. Conclusion : The shift group did not appear to have enough time to take care of their health. It is therefore important to provide a working environment in which nurses are encouraged to increase their interest and efforts to maintain healthy behaviors. In addition, programs for education and training should be developed to help nurses adopt healthy life styles and enhance their self-esteem.

흙은 모든 생명체의 어머니다. 흙이 없으면 어떤 생명체도 살아갈 수 없다. 우리들 역시 흙에서 나서 흙으로 돌아가야 한다. 흙은 보살피고 가꿔가야 할 대상이지 우리가 어떤 이득을 얻기 위해서 개발하거나 파괴하는 대상이 아니다. 그런데 경제적 이득을 얻을 수 있다는 자본주의 논리 하에서 자행되는 무분별한 자연파괴행위는 21세기 최대 과제인 '생명의 위기'를 자초한 결과를 가져왔다. 생명의 어머니인 흙이 병들어 신음하고 있는데 그 품안에 있는 모든 생명들이 온전할 리 없다. 어떻게 '생명의 위기'를 극복할 수 있을까.

This study has tried to find the gap of health promoting behavior and the lower level-health responsibility, physical activity, self-actualization, stress management and self-efficacy-between new freshmen and other university students in dormitories who have taken health education as an elective course through health education. With 105 students conducted self-answering survey. It was conducted from June 12 to June 13 of the year 2013. Analysis has been conducted into 5-point scale in every parts of health promoting behavior, 4-point scale in self-efficacy. As a result of the study, after health education, the increasing level of the score was bigger than general university students in preceding research before education; from this, we could interpret that the peers who live together lead positive competition. For before-and-after affects of education, after-education score increased statistically significantly higher from before-education score for both freshmen and other students on every item of the survey. Especially, self-efficacy and stress management, which are the lower level of health promoting behavior, have shown statistic significance of health education. When comparing freshmen and other students, the item that showed significant difference was 'self-efficacy,' and for both before and after health education, other students had higher score than freshmen. Based on the result of the analysis, for those who live together with group of people such as in-dorm students, group education is preferred to personal education; in addition, when selecting health education recipients, better achievement of education will be expected by primarily educating students who have lower level of self-efficacy and stress, especially freshmen who have lower self-efficacy level than other students in university.

본 연구는 복강경 위절제환자의 임상적 건강관리에 영향을 미치는 요인을 규명하고자 시도하였다. 자료수집은 2012년 1월 16일부터 2월 16일까지 수도권 지역의 종합병원 외과에 내원한 환자 201명을 설문 및 면접조사를 하였다. 연구결과로는 첫째, 수행성과 효율성은 유의한 양의 상관관계를 나타내었다(r=0.24, p<.01). 둘째, 건강실천정도는 선정된 변수들에 의해 42.7% 설명되었다. 효율성이 0.25로 가장 영향력이 있는 변수였으며 유의한 것으로 나타났다(p=.02). 이러한 결과를 토대로 복강경 위절제술환자의 건강실천정도를 높이기 위해서는 이전의 건강관련행위 분석과 건강증진 생활양식을 행하였을 때의 성취감을 통해 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 본다.
