Fifteen years have passed since the enactment of the Industrial Technology Innovation Promotion Act, which promoted industry cooperation activities for universities. Therefore, the study analyzes the relationship between the university's industrial cooperation activities and the college graduates' starting salaries and provides policy suggestions on improving the direction of university-industry cooperation. The study used nine-year panel data from Graduates Occupational Mobility Survey (GOMS) to conduct an empirical analysis and found that starting salaries of college graduates were not significantly higher if the university only participated in basic industry cooperation activities. On the other hand, when the quality of university-industry cooperation activities was higher, such as job search support, the starting salary of college graduates was higher. The findings suggest that university-industry cooperation activities must focus on qualitative performances rather than quantitative approaches.

Purpose : To explore the person-centered care (PCC) experienced by critical patients. Method : This qualitative study deductively examined the attributes of the PCC model proposed by Jakimowicz and Perry. The participants were 16 patients who were recently discharged from intensive care units at a university hospital. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and were analyzed using the deductive method of content analysis. Results : A total of 4 categories, 16 subcategories, and 33 codes were generated from 171 meaningful statements. The final 4 categories were "compassionate presence," "professional interaction," "outstanding competency," and "patient identity." These were consistent with the main attributes of Jakimowicz and Perry's model. However, most of the codes belonged to the "compassionate presence" and "patient identity" categories. Among the attributes of the model, "continuity of nursing," "therapeutic relationship," "expert knowledge," "clinical knowledge," "evidence-based intervention," and "patient's rights" were not derived as codes. Conclusion : These findings deepen the understanding of the PCC model from the patient's point of view. The main attributes of PCC identified in the current study can be applied to the development of practical guidelines for intensive care nursing. In addition, we recommend the development of a PCC measurement tool for critical care patients.

The implementation of NIR and chemometrics in the Pharmaceutical industries is still in strong progress, both regarding qualitative and quantitative applications and beneficial results are seen. Looking at the development so far, NIR will change the pharmaceutical industry even more in the future. This presentation will address the experiences and progress achieved regarding the application and implementation of quantitative methods for determination of content uniformity and assay of tablets with less than 10% w/w of active, using Near Infrared transmittance spectroscopy in combination with PLS. Also qualitative methods for identification of the same tablets by Near Infrared reflectance spectroscopy will be discussed. Four commercial tablet strengths are formulated and produced from two different compositions by direct compression. Three different strengths are dose proportional, i.e. fixed concentration by varying in size. The aim was to replace the conventional primary methods for analysing content uniformity, assay and identification by NIR. Studies were performed on comparing transmittance versus reflectance spectroscopy for both applications on the dose proportional tablets. The model for determination of content uniformity and assay was developed to cover both coated and uncoated tablets, whereas the qualitative model was developed to identify coated tablets only. The impact of the tablet formulation, tablet size and coating, resulted in individual models far each composition The best calibration was achieved using diffuse reflectance for the identification purposes and diffuse transmittance for the quantitative determination of the active content within the tablets. As NIR in combination with other techniques opens up the possibility of total quality management within the production, the transfer of the above-mentioned models from a laboratory based approach to an at-line approach at H.Lundbeck will be addressed too.

Purpose: This study was conducted to explore the experiences of nursing students who participated in the pneumonia and pleural effusion using web-based virtual reality and high-fidelity simulation. Methods: This study is qualitative study using inductive content analysis. We developed simulation scenario regarding pneumonia and pleural effusion. Eleven nursing students who participated in simulation were interviewed between June 20 to August 25, 2022. The interviews were transcribed and analyzed according to the inductive content analysis. Results: The results were analyzed into three key categories: 'pre-learning and psychological burden before simulation','increased learning satisfaction','improved clinical performance'. Conclusions: Participants was able to integrate their previous experience, including clinical practice experiences, web-based virtual simulation, into high-fidelity simulation and effectively enhanced their learning experience. Therefore, when providing various types of simulation simultaneously, it is necessary to take into account the prior students' experiences and to organize simulation education by considering the characteristics of simulation.

Purpose: The greatest asset to all organizations is the employees and they should be guarded against factors hindering their work ability. Nevertheless, most organizations are always more concerned about making profits to the extent of forgetting their employee's welfare. On this point, this study aims to examine employee's work-related stress and its relationship with work ability. Research design, data and methodology: This study focused on obtaining mostly peer-reviewed works to suggest research findings, assuming that qualitative literature approach allows researchers to explore in-depth information concerning complex issues in a standard life setting. Numerous prior researchers applied their research design in content analysis, especially where various concepts are present for analysis. Results: Based on numerous qualitative textual resources, this study found that human resource practitioners should plan stress management strategies for their employees to apply five kinds of solutions that the current study suggests because it is vital to ensure their wellbeing towards sustaining their performance. Conclusions: All in all, based on the findings, this study concludes that employee's work stress negatively impacts their work ability with affecting their mental health. As a result, there is little doubt that practitioners should regularly monitor the working environment for stress-related factors besides creating a healthy working environment for all employees.

Purpose: Patient education is a dynamic and continuous process that should be implemented during the entire time of hospital stay and even afterward. Studies have shown the typically poor quality of patient education in Iran and its failure to convey the required knowledge and skills to patients. The purpose of this study was to survey the experience of nursing students in regard to the challenges of patient education in hospitals. Methods: This qualitative study was conducted using the conventional qualitative content analysis approach on a sample of 21 undergraduate nursing students (4th semester and beyond), which was drawn from the Qom Nursing and Midwifery School through purposive sampling with maximum variation. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews conducted over a period of 45 to 75 minutes, and were analyzed using the conventional qualitative content analysis. Results: Results were derived from the experiences of 21 nursing students (nine males, 12 females) about the research subject. The primary themes identified in the study were the student-related, patient-related, instructor-related, education environment-related, and curriculum-related barriers to patient educations. Conclusion: Participants believed that patient education in Iranian hospitals is faced with many challenges. Nursing instructors and curriculum planners should ensure more emphasis on patient education at the initial semesters of nursing education curriculum and make sure that it is included in the evaluation of students. Hospital officials should provide a dedicated education environment with suitable facilities, tools, and atmosphere for patient education. Also, special education programs need to be developed for less educated patients.

In this study, the authors developed and implemented an online music-based support program to prevent burnout among university hospital nurses. This study involved 40 nurses from three university hospitals who shared their subjective experiences after participating in 8 music-based non-simultaneous online sessions. The responses were collected as qualitative data and analyzed using the qualitative content analysis method. The analysis identified 66 meaning units, 10 themes, and 3 categories, which included: 'Recovery of physical and psychological stability', 'Self-care and acceptance', and 'Rediscovery of pride and meaning as a nurse'. This study is significant for exploring the experiences of university hospital nurses who participated in a remotely implemented music-based psycho-emotional support program, with respect to burnout prevention. For future directions, we suggest a more in-depth exploration of specific burnout factors and an expansion of research through the diversification of research methods to refine programs aimed at alleviating nurse burnout.
