In this study, to search for events that cause high levels of PTSD symptoms, traumatic events are classified into 'criterion events' that meet DSM-IV-TR criteria and 'life stresssful events', conditional probability of PTSD was confirmed. From a sample of 1,000 adults residing in South Korea, 998 statistically relevant samples were extracted. Criterion events include cases of 'sexual harassment before age 16', 'sightings of other accidents', 'rape before 16', 'domestic violence before 16', 'disaster', 'traffic accidents', 'other accidents'. Life stressful events appeared to be 'legal arrest or detention(person and family)', 'parental separation or divorce', 'failure or despair causing serious stress', 'extreme conflict with family or frequent quarrels'. Among the demographic characteristics, age, marital status, religion were found to affect PTSD symptoms. The implications and limitations of these results are discussed.

최근 과학기술의 발달에 따른 컴퓨터 산업의 대중화로 각 가정마다 컴퓨터 1대씩은 필수로 보유하고 있다. 이러한 추세에 따라 초등학교 교육과정에도 재량활동으로 ICT 교육을 체계 있게 실시할 수 있도록 하고 있다. 하지만 컴퓨터를 가지고 정보를 활용하는 순기능을 잃어버리고 역기능이 학습지도와 생활지도의 문제로 등장했으며 컴퓨터 게임으로 인해 수많은 부정적인 영향을 끼치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 전국 여러 곳에서 초등학교의 고학년 학생들의 자료를 수집한 다음 이것을 특별시 광역시지역, 중 소도시지역, 읍 면지역으로 구분한 후 학생들의 컴퓨터 게임 사용 실태를 알아보고, 컴퓨터 게임 중독 측정도구를 사용하여 컴퓨터 게임 중독의 유무를 파악하며, 컴퓨터 게임 중독에 영향을 미치는 여러 요인들을 찾아보았다. 중독이 되는 요인으로는 남학생일수록, 학교 성적이 낮을수록, 게임 사용 경력이 오랠수록, 게임 사용 빈도가 높을수록, 게임 사용 시간이 많을수록, 공격성과 충동성이 높을수록, 자기통제가 안 될수록, 부모로부터 존중을 받지 못할수록, 공부스트레스가 많을수록, 대인불안이 높을수록, 친구 따라서 게임할수록 중독이 잘되는 것으로 나타났다. 소속감과 재미와 성취감이 관련이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 중독의 실태 및 요인을 알아 본 바에 따르면, 컴퓨터 중독을 비방하는 가장 큰 방법은 가정에서 부모가 자녀를 존중해주고, 바른 인성을 길러 공격성과 충동성이 높지 않고, 게임을 많이 좋아하지 않는 친구를 사귀는 것이 중요하다고 하겠다. 그리하여 가정과 학교와 사회가 올바로 역할을 수행한다면 정보화의 역기능인 컴퓨터 중독을 예방하고 정보 활용의 본래의 기능을 되살릴 수 있으리라 본다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify factors related to level of satisfaction among mothers of preschoolers. Methods: Participants were 359 mothers of firstborn healthy preschoolers. The questionnaires were collected from August 1 to November 21, 2012. Data were analyzed using SPSS 20.0. Results: The mean score for degree of mothers' parenting satisfaction was 5.94 out of 7. There were significant differences in the level of parenting satisfaction according to mother's job (t=2.48, p=.014), planned pregnancy (t=3.07, p=.002), number of children (t=2.22, p=.027), and parenting education (F=4.33, p=.005). The environmental variables of age of spouse (F=3.06, p=.048) and monthly income of the household (F=2.87, p=.036) also seemed to have an influence. Analysis of predictors such as the mother's job, planned pregnancy, parenting education, overall health problems, parenting stress, perception of emotional status and behaviors in children, age of spouse, and spouse's support explained 31.5% of the variance in mother's parenting satisfaction. Conclusion: The results suggest a need to develop nursing intervention programs for parenting stress reduction, and health programs for fathers to support mothers' child rearing.

Purpose: In this study self-efficacy, emotional labor, pediatric nurse-parent partnership and job stress of pediatric nurses were examined. Factors affecting job stress of pediatric nurses were also investigated. Methods: The study was done between June and September 2014, with a convenience sample of 145 nurses from 3 advanced general hospitals, 5 general hospitals and 2 children's hospitals. Research data were collected via questionnaires and analysed using SPSS version 18.0. Results: Average levels of self-efficacy, emotional labor and job stress were similar to other general nurses and the average level of pediatric nurse-parent partnership was also similar to other pediatric nurses. Job stress of pediatric nurses showed a positive correlation with emotional labor and negative correlations with self-efficacy and pediatric nurse-parent partnership. The most significant factor affecting job stress in pediatric nurses was emotional labor (${\beta}=0.372$, p<.001). The combination of emotional labor, pediatric nurse-parent partnership and self-efficacy accounted for 25.4% of job stress in pediatric nurses. Conclusion: These results suggest that nursing management strategies to decrease emotional labor and improve pediatric nurse-parent partnerships and self-efficacy are critical to decrease job stress for pediatric nurses. Continued development of nursing management interventions to decrease job stress in pediatric nurses is suggested.

The purpose of this research is to develop and validate an instrument that can be used to measure critical aspects of a parent's attitude and behavior that influence child development and adaptation. This instrument is named Parenting Style Inventory and self-reporting assessment of parent for preschoolers. We reported findings from 578 preschooler's care-givers. Five factors were extracted from 55 items developed for preschooler version and finally 29 items were selected. Subscales were empathy, respect, parental authority, coerciveness, perfectionism. Internal consistency of these subscales were .77, .86, .70, .74, .68 relatively. Empathy, respect and authoritative scales were regarded as the basic dimensions of parent's behavior. For clinical validation, we divided the preschooler care-giver sample into 8 groups according to scores of the basic dimensions and compared the 8 groups with parenting stress and parenting self-efficacy scores. The results indicated that three basic factors would have different effects on parental experiences and satisfaction. We suggested the clinical implication and limitation of this instrument.

The purpose of this study is to clarify that neonatal massage is a nursing intervention which is desirable to LBW by making nurses provide such massage service to LBW hospitalized at NICU and confirming effects of the service on weight gain, vital signs and stress hormones(cortisol, norepinephrine, epinephrine). The data were collected from Dec. 14, 1998 to Oct. 4, 1999. The subjects were 28 LBW infants. The data were analyzed with the SAS program with T-test, Chi-square test and ANOVA. 1. The Experimental group that received neonatal massage showed a higher daily gain of weight than the comparative group. Weight gain for 10 days and weight gain of seven days after the massage were also higher in the former group than in the latter, indicating that there are statistically significant differences between the two groups.

The purpose of this study was to explore differences in styles of perfectionism, stress, and career decision-making of gifted musicians by their grade level and examine the effect of perfectionism and stress of gifted musicians on their rational career decision-making. The participants of this study were 88 gifted musicians attending in the middle school of arts. The results indicated that there were significant differences in dimensions of perfectionism by the grade level of gifted musicians. The tendency of self-oriented, other-oriented, and socially prescribed perfectionism was higher with grade level. There were significant differences by grade level in stresses that gifted musicians experienced. The higher a grade level was, the more gifted musicians got stresses in self-development, parent-child relationship, peer relationship, and school life. The effect of grade level on career decision-making was significant in the rational and the transitional career decision-making. The higher a grade level was, the more rational decision-making was but the less transitional decision-making was. Meanwhile, when the effect of perfectionism and stress of gifted musicians on the rational career decision-making was examined, the rational career decision-making was predicted by self oriented perfectionism and self-development stress.
