Purpose: The study attempted to improve the health promotion behavior of university students by identifying the factors that affect health promotion behavior and by checking depression, anxiety, and stress levels of university students after the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: We collected data using a structured questionnaire targeting 170 university students in C-province between December 1 and December 31, 2022. Results: Health promotion behavior had a significantly negative correlation with Depression (r=-.361, p<.001), Anxiety (r=-.191, p=.012), and Stress (r=-.301, p<.001), respectively. The influencing factors of health promotion behavior are gender (r=0.184, p<.001) and depression (r=-0.303, p<.001); the explanatory power is accounted for 15%. Conclusion: A practical method with counseling programs and mental health support services for early detection of risk groups by periodically monitoring the depression state of university students requires practicing health promotion behavior. Therefore, active support and attention should be provided to manage the mental health of university students.

Purpose: This study aimed to provide basic information for university students to improve disaster preparedness by identifying disaster and safety cognition, safety education perception and identifying factors influencing disaster preparedness. Methods: Selected articles were programmed statistically by SPSS to analyze 162 third and fourth-year students in Chungcheong-do, from December 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. The general characteristics of the subject with the effect of disaster and safety cognition, safety education perception, and disaster preparedness was analyzed by t-test and ANOVA. Results: Disaster preparedness had a positive correlation with Disaster and safety cognition (r=.499, p<.001) and safety education perception (r=.328, p<.001). Furthermore, the influencing factors on disaster preparedness were sex (β=0.17, p<.011), disaster and safety cognition (β=0.39, p<.001), and 28% was explanatory power. Conclusion: Preparing educational method for strengthening safety and disaster cognition requires improving the disaster preparedness of university students, and a new educational approach to program development to elevate disaster and safety cognition at the university level.

Purpose: The study examined disaster recognition, disaster preparedness, and the willingness to participate in disaster response among healthcare students. It also identified the factors that can improve healthcare students' willingness to participate in disaster response. Methods: A structured questionnaire was designed, and data were collected from 171 students, who agreed to participate in the study at C-province between December 14, 2022, and December 28, 2022. Results: The scores of disaster preparedness and the willingness to participate in disaster response were 3.22 and 3.53, respectively. The willingness to participate in disaster response was high among those who had experienced a disaster and had disaster-related education. Furthermore, the willingness to participate in disaster response was significantly and positively correlated with disaster preparedness (r = 1.357, p<.001). Conclusion: It is important to mandate the provision of disaster preparedness education to increase the level and quality of disaster preparedness and the willingness to participate in disaster response.

Purpose: This study attempted to identify job stress, resilience, and job satisfaction among firefighters and to identify factors that influence job satisfaction. Methods: The study was conducted among 150 active firefighters who agreed to participate after reading an explanation of the purpose and importance of the study. They were sent a link to the self-report questionnaire URL via text message. Results: The mean scores for the variables were 2.26 for job stress, 3.55 for resilience, 3.30 for empathy, and 3.23 for job satisfaction. There was a significant difference in job satisfaction based on age. Job satisfaction was significantly positively correlated with empathy (r=248, p=.002) and resilience (r=463, p<.001) and significantly negatively correlated with job stress (r= -.740, p<.001). In other words, higher resilience and empathy were associated with higher job satisfaction, while higher job stress was associated with lower job satisfaction. And job stress was the influencing factor of job satisfaction, with an explanatory power of 55%. Conclusion: To improve firefighters' job satisfaction, management programs should be developed to enhance resilience and empathy and specific measures should be taken to reduce job stress.

Purpose: This study attempted to identify how academic self-efficacy, grit, and learned helplessness influence Academic delay behavior in college students and provide a foundation for reducing Academic delay behavior in college students. Methods: Data was collected from October 12, 2023 to October 30, 2023 using a structured questionnaire from 170 college students at a university in City D. The data was collected using a structured questionnaire. Results: Academic delay behaviors were significantly negatively correlated with academic self-efficacy (r=-.371, p<.001) and grit (r=-.562, p=.012), and significantly positively correlated with learned helplessness (r=.341, p<.001). Conclusion: Finally, In order to reduce academic delay behaviors among college students, it is necessary to actively utilize educational environments that promote academic achievement and grit, academic-related counseling programs, and learning environments that do not suffer from academic helplessness.

Purpose: This study aimed to provide basic data for the improvement of the standards related to the performance improvement of the firefighting equipment standards for special ambulances. Methods: Among the domestic firefighting equipment standards, the special ambulance standard was compared with the NFPA 1917 standard for the United States automobile ambulance 2019 and European Union European standard EN 1789 medical vehicle and its equipment, a road ambulance. Results: Anti-skid performance based on indoor noise standards, performance standards for interior lights, seat belt warning device, child car seat fixing device, safety handle, auxiliary footrest, and flooring materials should be supplemented. Conclusion: It is necessary to strengthen the production and performance standards for improvement to a level corresponding to the national standards, such as the United States and European Union.

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the knowledge and attitudes regarding adverse drug reactions (ADR) of emergency medical services (EMS) students, so that suggestions for further education on ADR can be made. Methods: A survey on knowledge and attitude was created and modified according to Lee's and Kim's test tool. In total, 149 students' data were collected and compared with previous studies. Results: Knowledge of ADR was relatively low (54%) but attitude was relatively high (75%). Clinical experience was important in knowledge and attitude. Knowledge and attitude showed a positive correlation. Conclusion: Increased knowledge of ADR leads to a more active attitude towards it. Hence, modification of the education system to provide a more personalized education is required.
