Purpose : This study examined how of nursing students affects their academic self-efficacy and communication ability on self-leadership. Methods : The subjects of this study included 269 nursing students enrolled in a college located in City B, South Korea during a period between June and July 2021. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 22.0 program to compute frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation and conduct t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe's test, Pearson Correlation Coefficient, and multiple regression analysis. Results : The nursing students had average academic self-efficacy of 3.10±.42, communication ability of 3.78±.53, and self-leadership of 3.16±.44. Among the self-leadership sub-factors, self-reward was the highest with 3.94±.74 points. The academic self-efficacy of the subjects demonstrated a significant difference according to happiness index (F=8.83, p<.001) and health (F=3.38, p=.035). The communication ability showed a significant difference depending on year of study (F=5.62, p<.001), happiness index (F=5.95, p<.001), and experience of clinical training (t=-3.57, p<.001). The self-leadership demonstrated a significant difference according to year of study (F=4.28, p=.006), satisfaction with major (F=7.37, p<.001), happiness index (F=3.68, p=.013), and experience of clinical training (t=-3.41, p<.001). A positive correlation was observed between the subject's academic self-efficacy and communication ability (r=.40, p<.001), as well as the academic self-efficacy and self-leadership (r=.45, p<.001). The communication ability (𝛽=.36, p<.001) was proven to be the strongest influential factor on the self-leadership, followed by academic self-efficacy (𝛽=.28, p<.001), satisfaction with major (𝛽=.13, p=.011), and experience of clinical training (𝛽=.13, p=.013). Conclusion : This study results imply that repeated studies that investigate the nursing students' academic self-efficacy, communication ability, and self-leadership are required. Furthermore, efforts should be made to develop programs aimed at enhancing nursing students' academic self-efficacy, communication ability, and self-leadership.

The 7th National Education Process, implemented in 2004, features student-oriented, selective educational programs with a wide range of optional subjects. In 2005, reflecting this revised National Education Process, the College Scholastic Ability Test began allowing individual students to choose the subjects for examination they would like to take. As a result, the deviations of the college freshmen's academic achievements in some subjects have noticeably widened. This study shows academic abilities of the students on some subjects by comparing the results of 2008 College Scholastic Ability Test with that of the Basic Academic Ability Evaluation Test for freshmen in engineering college of Hongik university. Lastly, this paper presents some improvement plans in order to better accommodate students with academic achievement levels lower than what is expected by the university.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of case-based learning application in human growth development classes on nursing students' problem-solving ability, self-directed learning ability, and academic self-efficacy. Methods : The research method was a self-report questionnaire before and after case-based learning for second-year nursing students who took the human growth development course at U University in K city. The collected data were statistically processed using SPSS WIN 21.0. Results : The results of the study showed that after case-based learning, problem-solving ability, self-directed learning ability, and academic self-efficacy were all significantly improved. In addition, as a result of examining the correlation between each variable after case-based learning, problem solving ability score and self-directed learning ability score (r=.54, ｐ<.01), and problem solving ability scores and academic self-efficacy scores (r=.44, ｐ<.01), were significantly correlated with self-directed learning ability scores and the academic self-efficacy reduction scores (r=.76, ｐ<.01). Conclusion : The results of this study suggested the need for various learning programs such as case-based learning to improve nursing students' problem-solving abilities and self-directed learning abilities and their application. In addition, to improve the learning self-efficacy of nursing students, a continuous and systematic study is suggested to develop and apply customized educational programs according to the learners' preferences. Since the sample group in this study was limited to one university, there were few cases and no control group, so there are limitations in generalizing the test effect, However, significant differences a were verified in the case-based learning pre-tests and post-tests.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of academic stress and self-control ability on temporomandibular disorder (TMD) of adolescents. Methods: Participants were 1,112 teenagers who were 1st grade students of middle and high school. After checking their academic stress and self-control ability through a self-administrated questionnaire, the students were examined their TMD by two trained dentists. We drew a comparison the level of their academic stress and self-control ability between the students with and without TMD. We divided them to four groups according to the level of academic stress and self-control. And we checked prevalence of TMD in each level. Results: The group of students with TMD was higher academic stress score level than the students without TMD (p<0.05). And they had lower self-control score level than the students without TMD (p<0.05). Even if they were under the same academic stress, the group of students with higher self-control score was less TMD prevalence than the students with lower score. Conclusions: Academic stress makes adolescents to increase TMD and high ability of self-control makes them to decrease it. And these tendencies are seemed to have a great influence on young male student.
