The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing the clinical decision making ability of nurses in long-term care hospitals. Data were collected from 174 nurses working in long-term care hospitals in G-do from October 11 to December 10, 2021. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation and stepwise multiple regression through the SPSS 23.0. As a result of the study, the clinical decision making ability was positively correlated with critical thinking disposition(r=.494, p<.001) and nursing work environment(r=.451, p<.001). Critical thinking disposition and nursing work environment explained 33.1% of clinical decision making ability. In order to improve the clinical decision making ability, which is the core competency of nurses, education to increase critical thinking disposition and the creation of a desirable nursing work environment are necessary. In future research, research to identify various variables affecting the clinical decision making ability of nursing hospital nurses, and research for the development and effectiveness of programs to improve clinical decision making ability are suggested.

This study aims to investigate how tie strength in business networks affects successful knowledge sharing, as well as the impact of environmental uncertainty on the relationship between knowledge sharing and tie strength. We gathered data through a questionnaire-based survey of 310 employees affiliated with a high-technology industry in Korea. The results highlighted the positive influence of strong ties on tacit knowledge sharing and weak ties on explicit knowledge sharing. Additionally, in this study, we determine that strong ties are strengthened to share tacit knowledge with exchange parties when environmental uncertainty is high, whereas weak ties may remain unaffected by environmental uncertainty. This study contributes to the literature on tie strength and knowledge sharing by applying social capital theory to a high-technology industry. The findings suggest that firms must take advantage of strong and weak ties to facilitate knowledge sharing to enhance competency, create novel knowledge, and obtain a competitive advantage.

This study examines the paradigm shift in vocational training with the introduction of remote training, which has been conducted fragmentarily by project, to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. It analyzes the operation's problems and limitations by dividing the remote training process from assessment to budget execution by subject, stage, and procedure. Additionally, it collects various stakeholders' opinions to propose improvement plans for the vocational training support system to effectively respond to the paradigm shift in vocational training in the digital and non-face-to-face era. The study assumes that the assessment of training institutions and the training process should be innovated in a way that can accommodate the direction of vocational training in the digital and non-face-to-face era instead of focusing on traditional collective training. Based on this premise, it suggests ways to enhance the pre-approval screening system and the training institution assessment system.
