Purpose: This study was conducted to evaluate the construct validity, reliability, measurement invariance, and latent mean differences in the Breastfeeding Adaptation Scale-Short Form (BFAS-SF) for use with mothers at 2 weeks postpartum. Methods: This methodological study was designed to evaluate the validity, reliability, and measurement invariance of the BFAS-SF at 2 weeks postpartum, with data collected from 431 breastfeeding mothers. Confirmatory factor analysis and multi-group confirmatory factor analysis were conducted to assess the factor structure and the measurement invariance across employment status, delivery mode, parity, and previous breastfeeding experience, and the latent mean differences were then examined. Results: The goodness of fit of the six-factor model at 2 weeks postpartum was acceptable. Multi-group confirmatory factor analysis supported strict invariance of the BFAS-SF across employment status and delivery mode. Full configural invariance, full metric invariance, and partial scalar invariance across parity and full configural invariance and full metric invariance across previous breastfeeding experience were supported, respectively. The results for latent mean differences suggested that mothers who were employed showed significantly higher scores for breastfeeding confidence. Mothers who had a vaginal delivery showed significantly higher scores for sufficient breast milk and baby's feeding capability. Multiparous mothers showed significantly higher scores for baby's feeding capability and baby's satisfaction with breastfeeding. Conclusion: The validity and reliability of the BFAS-SF at 2 weeks postpartum are acceptable. It can be used to compare mean scores of breastfeeding adaptation according to employment status, delivery mode, and parity.

This study examined the relationship between depression, anxiety, stress, and adaptation to college life of international students living in South Korea during the COVID-19 pandemic and the factors affecting the adaptation to college life. This study was carried out between December 3, 2021, to January 25, 2022, on international students living in South Korea. The questionnaires were composed of self-reported questionnaires, and the survey URL was sent as text messages to international students who understood the purpose and rationale of this study and consented to participate in the survey. The data were analyzed using SPSS WIN 22.0, and t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's Correlation Coefficient, and hierarchical regression were performed. As a result of the study, the average score of the study subjects was 8.44 points for depression, 8.28 points for anxiety, and 9. 28 points for stress. factors with significant differences in adaptation to college life according to general characteristics were living means and smoking. The relationship between the main variables, it was significant with depression (r=-.785, p<.001), anxiety (r=-.593, p<.001), and stress (r=-.726, p<.001). There was one negative correlation. It was found that the higher the depression, anxiety, and stress, the lower the college life adaptation. Lastly, depression (β=-.666, p<.001) was the factor affecting foreign students' adaptation to college life, and the explanatory power was 62%. Therefore, for international students to adapt to college life, it is necessary to establish an institutional strategy to detect depression, a negative psychological emotion, at an early stage and to systematically manage it. Also, it is necessary to find an intervention plan to relieve depression that can be applied in social isolation situations due to the spread of infectious diseases. Research confirming the intervention effect should be upgraded.

Purpose: We explored emergency nurses' experiences of coping with moral distress. Methods: A qualitative research design was used. We conducted in-depth interviews with 11 nurses working at a regional emergency medical center in South Korea. Data were analyzed using conventional content analysis. Results: The main theme of nurses' coping with moral distress was "a passive emotion-based response." We also extracted three categories of coping strategies: "uncritical adaptation to anguished situation," "self-justification for not acting," and "flight from ethical decision making." Conclusion: Nurses coped with moral distress in a passive and emotional way, possibly because of perceived incompetence and compliance to an organizational hierarchy. The findings imply that effective approaches to addressing moral distress in emergency nurses are needed at the individual and organizational levels.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe changes in positive psychological capital, organizational commitment and burnout according to work periods for new nurses. Methods: A longitudinal study was done using surveys of 91 nurses from a tertiary hospital located in Seoul, South Korea. Data were collected from these newly graduated nurses during the period from July 2018 to September 2019, three times (2 months, 4 months and 6 months after starting to work). Results: Hope of positive psychological capital decreased after 6 months of work (F=7.11, p=.001) and organizational commitment decreased after 4 months of work (F=15.30, p<.001). Factors influencing participants' burnout included the optimism of positive psychological capital and continuance of organizational commitment. These factors explained 51.3% of the variance in burnout (F=48.47, p<.001). Conclusion: Organizational support for new nurses is urgently needed. It is necessary to develop programs to strengthen the positive psychological capital of newly graduated nurses to reduce their burnout and to help their job adaptation.

본 연구는 '통일교육은 근본적으로 통일에 대한 심리교육이다.'라는 사람중심의 통일교육 관점에서 한민족에게 교류의 활성화와 통일의 완성을 위해서는 어떠한 심리적 요소에 대해 통일교육을 해야 하는 지를 제안하기 위한 것이다. 본 연구의 배경은 독일의 경우 통일된 지 17년이 지난 지금에도 완전한 통일 즉, 내적 통일을 이루기 위해서는 앞으로 30년 내외가 더 필요하다는 평가를 받고 있기 때문이다. 따라서 우리의 경우에는 독일이 하지 못했던 이 교육을 통일 이전부터 해야 한다. 그리고 우리는 독일과 달리 통일 이전의 교류시기가 상당히 길 것으로 전망되기 때문에 이 교류시기에 이 교육을 해야 한다. 우리의 상황에서 중시해야 할 사람중심의 통일교육의 요소는 이데올로기 중심의 통일 교육을 넘어서서 교류와 통일 시기에 개개인의 심리적 안정성 확보를 위한 적응력 증대 방안으로 이것을 통일 교육에 포함시켜야 한다.

자기고양 편파와 심리적 적응의 관계를 파악하기 위하여 두 가지 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해 연구 1에서는 자기고양 편파를 측정할 수 있는 객관적인 척도를 제작한 후, 한국 대학생들의 자기고양 편파 경향과 심리적 적응의 관계를 살펴보았다. 그 결과 한국 대학생들에게서 자기고양 편파와 심리적 적응은 유의미한 관계가 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 연구 대상에 노동자를 포함시켜 개인주의 문화권인 독일과 비교한 연구 2에서도 한국인의 자기고양 경향과 심리적 적응의 상관은 유의미한 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 집단주의 문화권에서는 자기고양 편파 경향이 나타나지 않으며, 심리적 적응과도 관련이 없다는 기존의 연구 결과와 상반된 것으로서 매우 흥미로운 현상이라고 할 수 있을 것이다. 자기고양 편파 경향의 문화적 차이를 좀더 심도 있게 파악하기 위해서는 더욱 세련된 측정 방식과 다양한 비교문화 연구가 필요한 것으로 보인다.

이 연구는 외국인 유학생들의 한국어 능력 시험(TOPIK) 등급이 학업 적응에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. IRB의 승인을 거쳐 모집한 학생은 모두 7명으로 이들의 면담 내용은 실용적 절충주의에 기초한 포괄적 분석절차 (이동성, 김영천, 2014)의 6단계를 활용해 분석했으며 그 결과 학문 목적 한국어 학습자의 학업 적응에 영향을 미치는 요인을 학업, 생활, 심리·정서의 범주로 나눌 수 있었다. 학업적 측면에서 인터뷰 대상자들은 적응하기 힘들었던 전공 용어와 전공 공부를 지적하였고, 한자 및 한자어에 큰 어려움을 경험했다. 다음으로 생활 측면에서는 고급 수준의 토픽 등급 소지자인 연구 참여자들도 대학 생활 적응에 어려움이 있었고 한국 생활에 제대로 적응하기 위해서는 실용적인 표현과 풍부한 어휘 지식이 필요함을 토로했다. 마지막으로 심리·정서적인 범주에서는 이들이 한국인들과의 대화나 발표에 상당한 스트레스를 받고 있음을 파악할 수 있었다. 사회 문화 및 일상 생활 문화에 관한 지식도 부족했기 때문에 한국어를 잘하더라도 화용적인 면에서 실수나 오류를 범하기도 했고 이것이 심리·정서적인 어려움에 처하는 요인이 되기도 했다. 이러한 이야기들을 근거로 한국어 학습자의 학업 적응을 촉진하기 위해서는 한국어 학습의 다양한 기회 부여라는 목표를 기반으로 학습자의 전공 관련 학업 능력 강화, 한국어 숙달도 향상, 학내 관계 형성에 도움을 주어야 한다는 결론을 내렸다. 그리고 연구자는 이를 위한 해결 방안으로 외국인 학습자들을 위한 다양한 비교과 활동을 계획·설계하여 시도해 볼 것을 제안했다.

The process of political and economic transformation of Germany following reunification has been well documented, but the question of psychological reunification is addressed by the present study. In order to analyze how East German adolescents adapted to the changing socialization context following reunification, questionnaires on values orientation, self-efficacy, subjective well being, coping, attitude toward violence and toward reunified German society were administered to 149 high school students. Results indicated that subjects had high scores on value orientation in private life and used active coping strategies. They had high scores in self-efficacy and subjective well being. Their political attitudes were complex and diverse. There were group differences by gender and type of school attended.
