This study was attempted to establish a model to investigate the relationship between career decision self-efficacy, department satisfaction, and job preparing stress of college students and to investigate the relationship between these factors. The subjects of this study were 355 college students aged 18 years or older in G-do, and the collected data were analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 24.0/AMOS 24.0 program. The fit index of the structural regression model met the acceptance criteria (χ²/df=2.89, SRMR=.04, RMSEA=.07, CFI=.96, TLI=.95). As a result of the study, first, it was found that career decision self-efficacy and department satisfaction directly affect job stress. Second, career decision self-efficacy was found to directly affect department satisfaction. Third, career decision self-efficacy was found to have an indirect effect on job stress through department satisfaction. Of the two variables influencing job stress, department satisfaction was found to have a greater relative influence on job preparing stress. Based on these research results, it is necessary to develop a strategy to increase career decision self-efficacy and department satisfaction, which has been found to affect job stress in order to reduce job preparing stress of college students.

This study begins on the basis of Jacques Lacan's article 『Logical Time and Assertions of Preemptive Certainty: A New Sophism』 published in the reissue of 『Art Note Les Cahiers d'Art』 in March 1945. In this paper, a guard presents an esoteric problem to three prisoners. If the problem is solved, the prisoner is released. A condition is given to solve a problem. Conversation between prisoners is prohibited, and the disc behind them cannot be seen. In this time and space, prisoners place themselves in logical time through the 'time of understanding' in order to become the chosen ones. We always live in logical time. We will argue the point at which Lacan destroys logical time in psychoanalysis. Time in Lacanian psychoanalysis transcends time divisions of the past, present, and future. Our time is always the past in the present. In Lacanian psychoanalysis, logical time is the time in the Other. The transcendence of the Lacanian psychoanalysis concept of time shows the deviation of logical time. In this text, We try to prove how Lacan contrasts psychoanalysis and the problem of time with time in the other. First, we will examine how logical time and impulse are related in psychoanalysis. Second, the postmortemity of the signifient (signifier) will be discussed. Third, Lacan psychoanalysis will present the transcendence of time. In conclusion, We will present the view that the time of Lacan psychoanalysis is flowing backwards. In Lacanian psychoanalysis, we try to prove that logical time is in the territory of the Other and is infinite time.

In this paper, the remote care of medical beds with multiple body pressure sensors is described. Falling is one of the factors that seriously threaten the safety of patients and harm their health. In this study, a new bed was developed to overcome this. The bed system consists of a keyboard that can operate, a keyboard controller that manages the movement of the keyboard, a sensor that measures body pressure, a sensor controller that transmits and receives sensor values, a main controller that checks it and operates automatically or manually according to the algorithm, and a server that oversees all these information. The bed system checks the patient's location through a sensor and wirelessly alerts the server through the main controller when the patient determines that there is a risk of falling, so that the nurse or nurse can recognize the patient's dangerous condition. The server may receive state data transmitted from the wired/wireless terminal to monitor whether the bed system is operating normally. The controller of the keyboard operates a keyboard-type mechanism and automatically controls the prevention of bedsores connected by body pressure sensors to physically separate the area to which the patient's pressure is applied to prevent bedsores. The main controller checks the presence of the patient's bed and transmits it to the server. In conclusion, the proposed system can smart monitor the user's state and perform remote care.

This study is a descriptive research study to identify the social support, depression, self-control, and employment stress levels of job seekers and to identify their correlation and influencing factors. The subjects of the study scored 4.13 points for social support, 0.79 points for depression, 3.10 points for self-control and 2.15 points for employment stress. The results of analyzing employment stress according to the general characteristics of the subjects showed that there was no statistically significant difference in gender, and there were significant differences in age, grade, major, and grades. Employment stress of the subjects is employment stress-depression (r=.625, p=).001), employment stress - self-control (r=.251, p=.001) and employment stress - social support (r=-, 519, p=).001) showed a negative correlation. Depression is depression-social control (r=.300, p=).001) shows a static correlation and depression-social support (r=-.503, p=).001) shows a negative correlation. Social support was not correlated with social support-self-control (r=-.059, p=414). Social support and depression were the factors affecting employment stress. We would like to provide basic data on programs and education to reduce the employment stress of college students.

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to examine the mediating effect of self-efficacy in the relationship between sense of calling and service quality of personal assistants for people with disabilities. The subjects of this study were personal assistants for people with disabilities belonging to four disability activity support organizations in K-city, Gyeongsangnam-do, and a total of 308 questionnaires were used for the final analysis. The dsta were collected from March 13, 2023 to to April 28, 2023. The collected data were analyzed by frequency analysis, Pearson's coefficents, Baron & Kenny multiple regression analysis using SPSS WIN 24.0. The results of this study are as follows. First, as a result of analyzing the correlation between sense of calling, self-efficacy, and service quality of personal assistants for people with disabilities, it was found that there was a positive correlation in all sub-variables. Second, in the relationship between sense of calling and service quality, self-efficacy was found to have a partial mediating effect. And self-efficacy was found to have a partial mediating effect in the relationship between prosocial orientation, which are sub-factors of sense of calling, and service quality. These results suggest that it is necessary to increase sense of calling and self-efficacy in order to improve the service quality of personal assistants for people with disabilities, and suggestions are made.

This study was attempted to determine the effect of premenstrual syndrome, menstrual pain, attitudes toward menstruation, and quality of sleep on learning immersion in female college students. The subjects of the study were 166 female college students at C University in Gyeongsangnam-do, and data collection was conducted from July 01 to August 31, 2023, using a Google questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed by correlation, multiple regression analysis. Premenstrual syndrome had a significant positive correlation with attitudes toward menstruation(r=.40, p<.001) and menstrual pain(r=.33, p<.001). And sleep quality had a significant positive correlation with menstrual pain(r=.31, p<.001) and learning immersion(r=.24, p=.002). Variables that have a significant impact on learning immersion include 'irregularity in eating' (β =.20, p=.007), 'abdominal massage' to relieve menstrual pain (β=.27, p=.003), and sleep quality (β=.16, p=.038). 'Abdominal massage' to relieve menstrual pain was found to be the best predictor of learning immersion, followed by 'irregularity in eating' and sleep quality. The total explanatory power was 13.9%. Based on the above results, in order to increase learning commitment through mitigation of premenstrual syndrome, education is necessary to seek active countermeasures by increasing various treatments and interest in them, and to have a positive attitude toward menstruation by having proper eating habits.

This study was a descriptive research study targeting medical students to determine the impact of self-directed learning ability, self-regulated learning, and communication ability on self-efficacy in performing medical treatment. This study randomly selected medical students from Region J, located in Province G, as the approximate population, and a total of 125 copies were finally analyzed. Descriptive statistics were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, correlation, and multiple regression analysis using IBM SPSS/25. Self-efficacy in performing medical treatment was related to self-directed learning ability (r=.61, p<.001), self-regulated learning (r=.50, p<.001), and communication ability (r=.33, p<.001). There was a positive correlation with all of them. As a result of analyzing the variables that affect the subject's self-efficacy in performing medical treatment using hierarchical multiple regression, self-directed learning ability was found to be the factor that best predicts self-efficacy in performing medical treatment, followed by self-regulated learning and communication ability. The total explanatory power was 46.6%. Acquiring specialized knowledge and becoming a doctor after graduation through clinical practice and acquiring the basic clinical practice skills necessary to successfully perform one's duties are important tasks that medical students must accomplish. Therefore, in order to improve medical students' self-efficacy in performing medical treatment, the importance of improving health care, major satisfaction, and life satisfaction must be recognized and managed. In addition, efforts to develop programs and improve systematic systems that can improve self-directed learning, self-regulated learning, and communication skills should also be supported.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the aspects and characteristics of educational innovation planned and implemented at the university site targeting universities in Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam, and to explore their limitations and tasks. For this purpose, we analyzed the contents of innovation strategy programs among the plans of 17 universities in the national innovation support projects in Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam area. First, the university innovation strategy was divided into input, process, infrastructure, and other factors, and among them, the process factor was divided into education, research, and industry-university cooperation to examine the aspects and characteristics of innovation. As a result of the study, the aspects of university innovation at universities in Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam were analyzed in the areas of education, research, and industry-academia cooperation. Characteristics of innovation were emphasis on convergence education, competency development, smart system foundation, introduction of innovative teaching and learning techniques, consumer-centeredness, and regional linkage. The limitations and tasks of university innovation revealed through the research are as follows. First, a specialized university innovation business structure should be prepared in consideration of the context of local universities. Second, established strategies with high innovativeness must be implemented and sustained, and consensus among members is required for this. Third, the innovation of universities should not mean the centralization of academics, and the role and efforts of universities as a research institutions should be improved. Fourth, it should not be overlooked that more important than the visible innovation strategy of university innovation is the education innovation that occurs directly to students as a result of the education effect.

The purpose of this GWP project was two-fold:(1) to launch an organizational culture improvement for great workplace (2) to improve the perception of nursing personnel on communication and team work in a surgical nursing department of a teaching hospital in Seoul. Using one group pretest-posttest design, nursing personnel's perception on organizational culture related to communication and team work was evaluated. A 10-item, 5-point scale (1.5) survey was administered to 209 nursing personnel in January 2009 and again to 191 nursing personnel in October 2009. From January 2009, AMANNA team has taken activities focused on trust, pride, and fun. AMANNA is an abbreviation of Korean language, which means wonderful meeting and sharing in English. Monthly activities are as follows: choral concerts by nurse managers, welcome and farewell events, praising members for their services, explaining current circumstances, etc. Special activities are as follows: a New Year's greeting party, a spring picnic, beauty classes, a lecture on drug administration, cultural lectures using videos, and presentations of academic posters and another activity. The reliability of measurement was Cronbach's ${\alpha}$: 0.917(pretest), 0.954(posttest). Most nursing personnel's perception on organizational culture was improved (pretest mean=3.50 and posttest mean=3.78, p<.001). "A sense of belonging" showed the greatest improvement among the 10 items(3.18 vs. 3.56, p<.001). "Trust each other" showed the highest score (mean=3.98) in posttest. Frequency of participation and satisfaction showed a significant relationship(r=0.179, p=.021). We believe that this project has made a contribution towards a positive organizational culture. The keys to this initiative's preliminary success have been the leadership support and flexibility in implementing the interventions tailored to the hospital.
