본 연구는 간호사의 임상적 추론 역량을 강화하기 위한 기초자료로 Liou와 그의 동료들이 개발한 NCRC (Nurse Clinical Reasoning Competence) 도구를 한국어로 번역하고 번역된 항목들에 대해서는 문장구조와 의미의 유사성을 검토하는 절차를 거쳐 도구의 타당도와 신뢰도를 검증하는 방법론적 연구이다. 본 연구는 서울과 부산 소재의 4개의 상급병원에서 근무하는 간호사 166명을 대상으로 하여 타당도 및 신뢰도 검증을 실시하였다. 전문가들을 통한 내용타당도 검증은 전체문항이 모두 CVI 0.8이상으로 확인되었고, 탐색적 요인 분석과 확인적 요인 분석을 통해 최종적으로 1요인으로 구성된 총 15개 문항으로 분석되었다. 또한 동시타당도 검증을 위해 간호사의 비판적 사고성향과 임상 의사결정 능력 측정도구를 활용하여 본 연구의 한국어판 간호사 임상적 추론 척도와의 상관관계를 확인한 결과, 측정도구간의 상관계수는 .55-.64(p<.001)로 나타났고, 도구의 신뢰도는 Cronbach's ${\alpha}=.93$으로 나타났다. 따라서 한국판 NCRC 도구는 한국 간호사들의 임상적 추론 역량을 객관적으로 평가하기에 유용한 도구라고 할 수 있으며, 국내 간호사들의 임상적 추론 역량 사정 및 증진전략 개발에 기초자료를 제공했다는데 의의가 있다. 그러나 한국의 간호 환경과 문화를 고려한 임상적 추론 역량 문항들이 있는지에 대한 추가적인 연구가 필요하다고 생각한다.

Purpose: This study aimed to explore professional autonomy, nursing work environment, and clinical decision making ability and to determine predictors of clinical decision making ability among clinical nurses. Methods: A cross-sectional design was used in this study and 263 clinical nurses were selected from advanced-level hospitals with over 500 beds located in D metropolitan city. Independent t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients and hierarchical multiple regression analyses were done with the SPSS/WIN 20.0 program. Results: Clinical nurses reported moderate levels of professional autonomy, nursing work environment and clinical decision making ability. Marital status, professional autonomy and nursing work environment accounted for 25% of variance in clinical decision making ability required in various clinical settings. Importantly, being married, higher level of professional autonomy, and greater satisfaction with work environment were significantly associated with better decision making ability. Conclusion: Findings indicate that improving the quality of decision making in the healthcare settings requires awareness of the multiple effects of individual, occupational and environmental features. Nurses' ability to make effective clinical decisions may rely on personal characteristics, the degree of autonomy in their job, and nurses' satisfaction with their work environment.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to identify the mediating effect of role clarity in the relationship between clinical decision-making abilities and job stress among advanced practice nurses at tertiary hospitals. Methods : The participants were 137 advanced practice nurses. The assessment tools were clinical decision-making in nursing scale, role ambiguity scale, and Korean occupational stress scale (KOSS-26). Data were analyzed with the SPSS/24.0 program and mediation analysis was performed according to the Baron and Kenny methods. Results : There were significant relationships between clinical decision-making abilities and job stress (r=-.33, p<.001), and role clarity and job stress (r=-.29, p=.001). Role clarity showed partial mediating effects in the relationship between clinical decision-making abilities and job stress (Z=2.02, p=.043). Conclusion : Therefore, to reduce advanced practice nurses' job stress, it is necessary to develop a program and strategies to increase their clinical decision-making abilities.

Purpose: This study investigated the effects of reeducation of nursing process on nurses' expertise, critical thinking disposition, and clinical decision making. Methods: Data were collected from March to June, 2007. The subjects were 47 Academic Credit Bank System Student Nurses. They were taught 'nursing process' during 1 semester(15weeks). 47 nurses were divided into three groups according to clinical experience(under 3 years, 3 to under 5 years, 5 years or more). After 15 weeks, the effects of education were compared using a paired t-test between pre-test and post-test. Results: There was a significant difference in the 3 to under 5 years experienced nurses's expertise(t=-3.659, p=.004) between the pre-test and post-test. There was a significant difference in the 5 years or more experienced nurses's expertise(t=-5.781, p<.001) and critical thinking disposition(t=-3.345, p=.003) between the pre-test and post-test. There were no significant differences in clinical decision making(accuracy, proficiency, and confidence) of 3 groups. Conclusion: Reeducation of nursing process is a valuable teaching and an evaluation strategy for 5 years or more experienced nurses to improve expertise and critical thinking disposition. We need to develop continuing education program for improving nurses' clinical decision making.

본 연구의 목적은 한국의 사회심리적 간호현상을 밝힘에 있다. 이를 위한 자료는9명의 임상경험이 많은 병원 간호사들을 심층면담하여 수집하였으며, 분석은 해석학적 현상학과 근거 이론 방법에서 사용하는 계속비교 분석 방법을 이용하였다. 사회심리적 간호는 ‘정보제공’, ‘위로’, ‘상담’, ‘지도’의 네가지 범주로 구분되었다. 이 중에서 정보제공이 가장 많이 사용되었고 중요하게 여겨 진 반면, 상담과 지도는 흔히 사용되지 않았다. 이는 상담과 지도는 고도의 의사소통 기술, 인간관계에 대한 이해, 그리고 타인에 대한 감성등이 요구되었기 때문이다. 사회심리적 간호제공에 방해를 주는 요인도 밝혀졌다. 첫째, 가족이나 보호자들의 상주로 인해 간호사들이 사회심리적 간호의 임을 이들에게 떠넘기는 경향이 있었다. 둘째, 간호사의 특성, 즉 치료적 인간관계를 확립할 수 있는 간호사의 능력부족이 방해요인이었다. 셋째, 신체적 간호만을 중시하고 높은 간호사대 환자 비율을 가진 병원 시스템이 방해요인이었다. 넷째, 조밀한 병상등의 병원환경도 해요인으로 나타났다. 사회심리적 간호는 간호사-환자-보호자 관계를 치료적으로 형성 유지할 수 있는 간호사의 능력에 따라 결정되었기 때문에 이에 대한 분석을 계속하였으며, 치료적 관계형성과 유지에 영향을 주는 요인은 다음과 같이 나타났다. 첫째, 간호사의 기술적, 신체적 간호의 유능성이 치료적 관계형성에 필요하였다. 둘째, 환자 및 보호자와 신뢰관계를 구축할 수 있는 능력이 필요하였다. 셋째, 환자의 요구에 따르는 역할을 제대로 수행할 수는 능력이 필요하였다. 즉, 치료적 관계형성은 환자와의 신뢰형성만으로는 부족하며, 환자와 보호자의 요구에 따르는 역할, 즉 정보제공자, 위로자, 상담자, 지도자의 역할까지도 수행할 수 있어야 함을 의미한다. 이 외에도, 간호사들이 치료적 관계를 형성하고 유지하기 위하여 사용한 대책들을 제시하고 논의하였다. 본 연구는 한국의 사회심리적 간호의 범주, 방해요인, 촉진요인 등을 설명하고 기술하였기에, 우리나라의 간호사들이 사회심리적 간호를 위해 어떠한 일들을 주로 수행하며, 어떻게 환자 및 보호자들과 상호작용하면서 간호중재를 펴나가는가를 이해하는데 도움을 주리라 여겨진다.

Purpose: This study seeks to identify situations where nurses are required to consider alternatives, for the delivery of nursing care, appropriate to the needs of a medical care unit, surgical care unit, and intensive care unit in a university hospital. Method: Data was collected from 100 nurses using an open questionnaire, during a one week period in May, 2003. These nurses all had at least two years of experience within a medical care unit, surgical care unit, or intensive care unit at a university hospital. Results: The situations that nurses typically faced were categorized into 21 problems for nurses including : respiratory problems(26.8%), pain(23.6%), problems in relation to bowel habit(23.2%). In cases where nurses were faced with making decisions in relation to solving respiratory problems, the alternatives included ; applying oxygen(29.3%), physical assessment and monitoring(14.7%), refining and modifying order and suggestion order(9.3%). Ventilator care(9.3%), was chosen to solve pain problems ; doing pm orders(30.3%), placebo medication(27.3%), and to refine and modify orders and suggestions(18.2%). To solve problems in relation to bowel habits ; enemas accounted for 32.3%, and laxative medication 30.8%. Conclusion: To improve the quality of nursing, the outcome of nursing care associated with 21 problems for nurses including : respiratory problems, pain, and problems in relation to bowel habit, should be identified and the best alternative nursing care should be developed.
