In this paper, each driving motor for leg joints on a robot is controlled by estimating the direction of the legs measuring each joint angle and attitude angle of robot. We used quadruped working robot named TITAN-VIII in order to carry out this experimental study. 4 load cells are installed under the bottom of 4 legs to measure the pressed force on each leg while it's walking. The walking experiments of the robot were performed in 8 different conditions combined with duty factor, the length of a stride, the trajectory height of the foot and walking period of robot. The validity of attitude control for quadruped walking robot is evaluated by comparing the pressed force on a leg and the power consumption of joint driving motor. As a result, it was confirmed that the slip-condition of which the foot leave the ground late at the beginning of new period of the robot during walking process, which means the attitude control of the robot during walking process wasn't perfect only by measuring joint and attitude angle for estimating the direction of the foot.

This paper presents the attitude control of the double inverted pendulum with compliant joint. The biped robot with compliant ankle joint instead of a motor have a good contact between it's sole and ground in the uneven ground. The compliant ankle joint proposed here is composed of springs and mechanical constraint. The lower link is hinged on the plate to free for rotation in the vertical plate. The upper link is connected to the lower link through a DC motor. The DC motor is used to control the posture of the pendulum by adjusting the position of the upper link. The algorithm for controlling a proposed inverted pendulum is nonlinear feedback controller. Simulation with mathematical model are conducted to show the validity of the proposed controller.

Purpose: This study aimed to explore the influences of sense of ethics and attitude toward patient safety in confidence in patient safety in nursing students. Methods: This descriptive study was conducted with 198 students who had clinical practices in two nursing schools. Sense of ethics, attitude and confidence about patient safety were measured by a questionnaire. Data were analyzed with SPSS/WIN 19.0 using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis. Results: There were significant differences in satisfaction with nursing major by grade. There were significant positive correlations among sense of ethics, attitude toward patient safety, confidence in patient safety, view on patient's safety, and satisfaction with nursing major. Confidence in patient safety was associated with sense of ethics, attitude toward patient safety, and view on patient's safety, with 37.6% of the variance. Conclusion: The findings suggest that we need to develop curriculums for undergraduate students to improve their sense of ethics and patient safety. Further research is needed to examine educational needs on patient safety in nursing students.

Purpose: This study was examined the effects of a hepatitis A education on attitude, vaccination intention, and preventive behavior. Methods: Eighty-eight college students at two universities participated in this study. The data were collected from August 29 to September 30 in 2011 and were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, and ${\chi}^2$ test. Results: There were no significant differences of preventive behavior of hepatitis A between the positive and negative message groups (t=1.10, p=.499). However, the negative message group had a significantly higher attitude of preventive behavior (t=0.92, p=.049) and vaccination intention (${\chi}^2$=5.43, p=.039) than the positive message group. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that negatively framed messages are effective on increasing the attitude, vaccination intention, and preventive behavior.

Purpose: This study aims to identify the effect of university students' intention to donate hematopoietic stem cells based on the theory of planned behavior. Methods: The subjects include university students who visited the campaign for the registration of hematopoietic stem cell donation held at H university on September 28, 2019 and October 2, 2019. Results: The intention to register for hematopoietic stem cell donation and empirical attitude (r=.72, p<.001), instrumental attitude (r=.64, p<.001), directive norm (r=.53, p<.001), technical norms (r=.55, p<.001) and self-efficacy (r=.86, p<.001) showed a significant positive correlation. The multiple regression analysis revealed that self-efficacy (β=.66) and empirical attitude (β=.23) were the most influential factors. Conclusion: Educational and promotional programs to increase the intention to register for hematopoietic stem cell donation need to be developed to help increase students' self-efficacy and help them develop a positive experiential attitude. In addition, further research is needed to determine whether the intention to register in hematopoietic stem cell donation among university students can lead to actual registration and donation after registration.

Purpose: This study aimed to analyze factors affecting the handwashing performance of nursing students using the health belief model, self-efficacy, and handwashing attitudes. Methods: Data were collected using structured questionnaires in 2018. 223 students enrolled in nursing college participated in the questionnaire, which consisted of four sections: health belief in hand washing, self-efficacy, hand washing attitude, and general handwahsing characteristics. Data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis with SPSS 21.0 statistical programs. Results: The significant predictors affecting proper hand cleansing were perceived benefits and motivation of health belief model, handwashing time and frequency, and handwashing attitude. Out of these significant variables, perceived benefits was shown to be the strongest predictor. Conclusion: The findings suggest that periodic and steady hand washing training programs need to be implemented in order to improve handwashing practices of nursing students. Such handwashing education programs should include content that sensitizes the benefits of hand washing and provides information on how to carry out hand washing in detail.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore factors influencing for intention to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in undergraduate nursing students. Methods: A total of 146 students at G University participated in this descriptive study. With a self-administered questionnaire, the data were collected from November 26 to November 30, 2018. Results: In this study, intention to perform CPR had significant positive correlations with attitude of CPR (r=60, p<.001), self-efficiency of CPR (r=.53, p<.001), and confidence in automated external defibrillator (AED) utilization (r=.47, p<.001). Stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that factors influencing for intention to perform CPR were attitude of CPR (${\beta}=.60$, p<.001) and confidence in AED utilization (${\beta}=.26$, p<.001). Overall, approximately 41% of the variability in intention to perform CPR was explained by these variables ($R^2=.41$, F=50.04, p<.001). Conclusion: In order to promote the intention to carry out CPR among nursing college students, it will be necessary to develop strategies to strengthen a positive attitude toward CPR in fundamental nursing and clinical nursing practices in addition to improve confidence in AED utilization.
