Gender, academic achievement, economic status, perceived stress, happiness, health status, and depression in the subjects showed a significant difference in terms of sleep satisfaction in atopic adolescents. Multiple-sample logistic regression analysis showed that male adolescents (odds ratio (OR)=0.48), academic achievement (low OR=0.67, middle OR=0.78), economic status (low OR=0.50, middle OR=0.64), lack of depression (OR=0.63), perceived stress (very OR=4.65, a little OR=2.25), perceived happiness (unhappy OR=1.99, moderate OR=1.22), perceived health status (unhealthy OR=2.17, ordinary OR=1.35), alcohol nondrinking (OR=0.75), and nonsmoking (OR=0.73) were not associated with sleep satisfaction. Conclusion: It is necessary to develop interventions that can relieve stress management and depression and develop positive emotions in atopic adolescents. In addition, there is a need to improve the environment to avoid health risks such as alcohol consumption and smoking and to minimize the effects of passive smoking.

본 연구는 종합병원에 근무하는 암병동 간호사와 일반병동 간호사의 직무스트레스와 신체화 증상간의 관계를 알아보기 위한 조사연이다. 참가자는 종합병원에 근무하는 114명의 간호사로 일반적 특성에 따른 직무스트레스와 신체화 증상을 확인하고 두 변수들의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 연구결과 암병동 간호사는 일반병동 간호사보다 직무스트레스와 신체화 증상이 모두 높았으며, 암병동 간호사와 일반병동 간호사 모두 직무스트레스와 신체화 증상은 양의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 암병동 간호사에 대한 안전한 근무환경 및 호스피스 간호와 관련한 심리적 지원을 통하여 암병동 간호사의 직무스트레스를 완화시시키고 나타날 수 있는 신체화 증상을 예방하는 의료기관의 적극적 지원이 필요하다.
