Purpose: This study was to examine factors related to depression of the elderly, and using them, to lay the ground for the development of nursing intervention. Methods: This was a descriptive correlation study. The subjects were 581 elders aged over 65 from senior centers in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and multiple regression with SAS. Results: The predictors of depression in the elderly were quality of life, moral, life satisfaction, self-esteem, loneliness, nonformal support, and perceived health state. Among them, quality of life was the most significant predictor in the elderly. These factors explained 72.2% of the total variance. Conclusion: These findings suggest the need to develop nursing strategies for decreasing depression in the elderly. To decrease the depression of the elderly, the above-mentioned major influencing factors should be considered.

이 연구는 한국복지패널 4차 자료를 이용하여 노인 우울에 영향을 미치는 주요 스트레스원의 상호 관련성을 살펴보고, 주요 스트레스원이 가족갈등대처방식을 매개로하여 노인의 우울에 미치는 영향을 분석한 것이다. 분석에 포함된 대상자는 65세 이상 노인인구 3,890명으로 남 1,559명, 여 2,331명이었다. 주요 분석 변수는 경제적 생활수준, 건강상태, 가족관계 만족도, 가족갈등대처방식 등이었으며, 분석방법은 T-test, ANOVA, 상관분석 및 다중 회귀분석이 사용되었다. 분석 결과 여성, 단독가구, 미취업자, 75세 이상, 종교와 배우자가 없는 노인의 우울수준이 유의미하게 높았다. 최종적으로 가족갈등대처방식은 주요 독립변수들이 노인의 우울에 영향을 미치는 과정에서 부분매개로 작용하고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 연구의 목적은 간호대학생의 사회적 고립감, 심리적 수용, 수면장애가 우울에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위함이다. 연구대상은 경기도 소재의 일개 간호대학생 383명으로 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 2015년 6월부터 7월까지 자료수집하였다. 수집된 자료는 t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, 다중회귀분석을 통해 분석하였다. 연구결과, 학년, 학업스트레스, 간호학 전공만족도에 따라 우울 정도에 차이가 있었다. 우울 정도는 사회적 고립감(r=.47, p<.001), 수면장애(r=.43, p<.001)와 정상관관계가 있었고, 심리적 수용(r=-.41, p<.001)과는 역상관관계가 있었다. 우울에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 학업스트레스, 전공만족도, 수면장애. 사회적 고립감, 심리적 수용이 확인되었다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 간호대학생의 우울을 감소시키는 스트레스 증재 프로그램을 계획할 때는 학업스트레스, 전공만족도, 사회적 고립감, 심리적 수용과 수면장애의 변수를 고려한 복합적 중재 프로그램 개발과 적용이 필요하다고 생각된다.

The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of the attachment to mothers and peers and the depression on the adolescent delinquency. The subjects were 516 eleventh grade students in the liberal and the commercial high schools in Busan. The subjects rated on questionnaires by themselves regarding the attachment to mothers and peers, the depression and the latent delinquency. The major findings of this study were as follows: 1) Adolescents in the commercial high school had more delinquency rate than those in the liberal high school. And the male adolescent had more delinquency rate than the female one. 2) The attachment to mothers and the kind of high school attended significantly predicted the male adolescent's depression. The attachment to mothers and peers significantly predicted the depression of the female adolescent. The relative influence of the attachment to mothers on the prediction of male and female adolescent's depression was the strongest among all the varibles. 3) The kind of high school had a first direct effect on the male and female adolescent's delinquency rates and was the first contribution factor. The attachment to mothers had both direct and indirect negative effect for female and an indirect negative effect for male on the adolescent delinquency rate through depression. But the attachment to peers had a direct positive effect on both male and female adolescent's delinquency. Depression had a direct effect on male adolescent delinquency.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to compare the differences of sleep quality, fatigue and depression between school lessons and clinical practicum term in nursing students. Methods: This study was conducted through a survey on 84 $4^{th}$ grade nursing students. Data collection was conducted from April to June, 2015. Participants completed a questionnaire assessing sleep quality, fatigue and depression. Data were analyzed by the SPSS/WIN 21.0 using descriptive statistics, paired t-tests, ANOVAs, Pearson's correlations and multiple regression. Results: The mean scores of fatigue and depression during the school lesson were significantly high compared to those of the clinical practicum. On the contrary, the score of sleep quality did not showed difference. Sleep quality showed negative correlations with fatigue and depression respectively, and fatigue showed positive correlation with depression. Subjective health status was the influential factor predicting fatigue and depression after school lessons, and subjective health status and major satisfaction were the influential factors predicting fatigue and depression after clinical practicum term. Conclusions: Nursing students showed different characteristics between school lessons and clinical practicum term. Thus, it is essential to identify physical and psychological problems and related factors respectively, then to devise appropriate programs to improve nursing curriculums.

Methods: A literature search of PubMed and Journal of Oriental Neuropsychiatry was conducted. This study analyzes the physiopathology of depression. Results: Despite difference of the viewpoints between conventional medicine and Korean medicine, etiology and symptoms of depression are similar. Recent findings of depression partly accord with Korean medicine theory. Conclusion: Physiopathology of depression has yet to be completely understood and current treatments remain ineffective in a large subset of patients. As the efficacy of Korean medicine against depression is demonstrating recently, understanding the viewpoints of Korean medicine will provide new perspectives and hints for further research and therapeutic development.

Background: Cancer is a major public health problem in many parts of the world. Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers are responsible for 20% of all cancer-related deaths. In Turkey, stomach cancers account for 8.9%, colon cancer for 6.9%, and pancreatic cancer for 5.9%. This study examined the anxiety-depression levels and the quality of life of patients with GI cancer. Materials and Methods: This descriptive study was carried out on 335 adult patients who had gastrointestinal cancer and who were hospitalized in medical oncology clinics. Data were collected by using hospital anxiety and depression scale, EORTC QLQ C-30 and a patient information form. Results: Patients who were male and secondary school graduates/graduates/postgraduates experienced more functional difficulties. Patients with poor economic status experienced more symptoms. Patient general wellbeing decreased with increase disease duration. The level of functional difficulties decreased with an increasing number of hospital stays. Anxiety scores increased with decreasing age. Both anxiety and depression scores increased with increasing disease duration. Patients who were female, single/widowed/divorced, and literate/elementary school graduates had higher anxiety and depression scores. Life quality decreased with increasing anxiety and depression. Conclusions: Patients should be supported to prevent anxiety and depression, and should be followed up with this in mind.
