This study examined the influence of problem solving ability, communication skill and self-efficacy on clinical competence of nursing students. The research subjects were 184 grade 4 nursing students in D and G city. Data were collected from September 1 to September 10, 2016 and analyzed by independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, and stepwise multiple regression using the IBM SPSS/WIN 20.0 program. The results showed that the problem solving ability was 3.60, communication skill was 3.79, and self-efficacy was 3.45. The clinical competence was positively correlated with problem solving ability, communication skill and self-efficacy. Problem solving ability (${\beta}=0.283$, p<0.001), self-efficacy (${\beta}=0.249$, p<0.001), motivation for nursing (${\beta}=0.182$, p=0.002), communication skills (${\beta}=0.176$, p=0.016), and interpersonal relationships (${\beta}=0.101$, p=0.082) explained 42.8% of the total variance in clinical competence of nursing students. The most significant predictors of clinical competence were problem solving ability, followed by self-efficacy and communication skills. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an empowerment program to improve problem solving ability, self-efficacy and communication skills of nursing students.

This study investigated the effect of Ego-resilience, Marital communication, and Mental health on Happiness among middle-aged women Methods: A descriptive correlation study design was used with a convenience sample consisting of 239 women. SPSS Win21.0 program was used for the descriptive analysis, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient analysis, and multiple-regression analysis. The mean score for ego-resilience was 3.46±.527(range: 1-5), marital communication was 2.44±.52(range: 1-5), mental health 1.82±.66(range: 0-4) and happiness was 3.21±56(ranse: 1-5). Happiness was found to have a significant positive correlation with ego-resilience(r=.393, p<.001) and negative correlation with somatization(r=-.134 p=.039), depression(r=-.356, p<.001), anxiety(r=-.269, p<.001). The predictive factors on the Happiness were depression(β=-.437, p<.001), ego-resilience(β=.350, p<.001), Somatization(β=.239, p=.009) and subjective health status: average (β=-.150, p=.009), unhealthy(β=-.147, p=.015). The explanatory power was 30.4% (F=14.02, p <.001). Based on the findings of this study, it is important to provide services to ego-resilience and mental health among middle aged women.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of maternal post-natal depression on children's communication competence, maternal self-efficacy and parenting style. The data on 1,438 pairs of children and their mothers were provided by The Korean Children Panel Study (KCPS). Mothers were assessed by K6(Kessler et al., 2002), The Pearlin Self Efficacy Scale(Pearlin et al., 1981), and The Parental Style Questionnaire(Bornstein, et al., 1996). Children's communication competence was assessed by K-ASQ. The collected data were analyzed with t-test and path analysis. The major results of this study were as follows : (1) Post-natal maternal depression was not directly associated with the children's communication competence. (2) Post-natal maternal depression indirectly influenced the children's communication competence via maternal self-efficacy and the parenting style. The results of this study suggest that post-natal depression within 1 year will not have an effect on the children's communication competence directly, but will indirectly influence it through maternal self-efficacy and the parenting style when the children are 2 years old.

To date, the study of students with multicultural disabilities has been limited to language problems. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of communication between parents and professionals on the IEP and teaching strategies of students in multicultural special education in the United States. From 2015 to 2016, structural equation modeling was conducted using AMOS 21 based on data from 406 elementary, middle, and high school teachers who has experiencing of multicultural disabilities. The correlation coefficients between IEP and the variables affecting instructional strategies were significantly high between -044 and .489 as a whole. Especially, teaching strategy and communication with parents were relatively more effective than professional communication high correlation. In addition, with regard to the impact on IEP and teaching strategies, parental communication has been found to be closely related to IEP and teaching strategies. However, communication with professionals has a direct effect on teaching strategies. There was no significant correlation between parent and professional communication.

Children with language developmental disabilities often struggle through their lives from a lot of challenges in everyday life and social activities. They're often easily deprived of the opportunity to engage in social activities, because they find difficulty in understanding or using language, a core means of communication. With regard to this issue, AAC(Augmentative and Alternative Communication) can be an effective communication tool for children who are suffering from language disabilities. In this paper, we propose a deep learning-based AI service to make full use of the pictogram as an AAC tool for children with language developmental disabilities to improve not only the ability to interact with others but the capacity to understand language. Using this service, we strive to help these children to more effectively communicate their intention or desire and enhance the quality of life.

The purpose of this study was to examine the validity and reliability of the Korean Version of Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (KSE-12), which is used to examine Communication Self-Efficacys for 155 nursing students. To verify the construction factor of the tool, exploratory factor analysis with varimax rotation was performed, resulting in one factors with 12 items. KSE-12 was significantly correlation with GICC (p<.001), and criterion validity was verified. Cronbach's α was .98, showing internal consistency. Therefore, we suggest that it will be useful for the accumulating the evidence data for development of the communication self-efficacy program by using the KSE-12.

본 논문은 최근 급변하는 스마트 시대에 발 빠르게 대처하기 힘든 장애인들과 일반인간의 단절을 해소하기 위해 도움을 주고자 한다. 사람들 간의 융합을 위해서는 기본적인 대화가 진행되어야 하는데 청각언어 장애인들과의 대화를 위해서는 수화를 사용하여야 한다. 하지만, 일반적으로 수화언어에 대한 지식이 미흡하고 원활한 의사소통에 큰 문제점을 가지고 있다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 립모션을 이용한 수화 인식 툴의 개발을 통해 일반인과 청각언어 장애인들간의 의사소통을 증진시켜주는 것이 목적이다.
