This study was conducted to investigate the dietary habits and practices of mothers and their children from 3 to 6 years of age as well as the mother's attitudes about nutrition education. This study focused mainly on two areas: 1) the dietary habits and actual dietary practices of mothers and their children and 2) a mother's perception and need for nutrition education. The results of the regression analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between the dietary habits of mothers and their children's (p<0.05). There was statistical significance in total food frequency intake and the food frequency intake between the mothers and children (r=0.829, p<0.01). The results of the regression analysis showed that the mother's dietary attitude (meal regularity, meal tempo) could positively influence their children's dietary attitude (p<0.01). The mothers showed a high interest in nutrition education; 81.6% of mothers tried to apply nutrition information to their actual dietary life, 77.6% of them recognized the need of nutrition education on preschoolers' dietary life and health, and 75.2% of them wanted to participate in nutrition education program(s) for their children. The percent of mothers that wanted to be offered lectures, food practices and hand-outs were 36.9%, 18.4%, 15.5%, respectively. The combined results of this study showed that mothers sincerely recognize the need for nutrition education and they have a high and deep interest in nutrition education.

Changes in social, economical, and cultural environments affect the meal practices of children. The transmission of traditional Korean food culture is very important because it presents not only a well-balanced diet but also contributes to shaping identity. The purpose of this study was to investigate elementary school students' present meal practices and views, as well as demands on traditional food culture education to reflect future educational plans. Half of the students ate breakfast everyday and 72% ate a traditional Korean style breakfast. About 38% of the students participated 2-4 times per week in meal preparation and 34% participated in clean-up after the meal once a day. Although 6th graders had greater skills in basic cooking, they tended to be more passive upon applying their skills in daily meal practice. For traditional food culture education, 89% of the experienced and 86.2% of the inexperienced groups agreed on the necessity of traditional food culture education. Students attained traditional food culture knowledge through Silgwa, practical coursework within the curriculum, and by teachers leading classes. They were also educated by parents, mass media, and books outside of school. The preferred methods of class teaching were lecture and experiential learning. The preferred subjects to learn were 'cooking classes based on taste development', 'learning food ingredients through vegetable growing', 'traditional Korean food manners', and 'traditional Korean food culture and seasonal foods' as well as nutritional education. Fifth graders had more positive attitudes towards meal practices and traditional food culture education. Traditional Korean food culture and nutrition education should be integrated and developed into regular subject curricula to improve children's meal practice and inheritance of traditional food culture.

Objectives: Knowledge, attitudes, and practices of healthcare providers related to occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens were assessed in a tertiary-care hospital in Middle East. Methods: A cross-sectional study was undertaken using a self-administered questionnaire based on 3 paired (infectivity known vs. not known-suspected) case studies. Only 17 out of 230 respondents had an exposure in the 12 months prior to the survey and of these, only 2 had complied fully with the hospital's exposure reporting policy. Results: In the paired case studies, the theoretical responses of participating health professionals showed a greater preference for initiating self-directed treatment with antivirals or immunisation rather than complying with the hospital protocol, when the patient was known to be infected. The differences in practice when exposed to a patient with suspected blood pathogens compared to patient known to be infected was statistically significant (p < 0.001) in all 3 paired cases. Failure to test an infected patient's blood meant that an adequate risk assessment and appropriate secondary prevention could not be performed, and reflected the unwillingness to report the occupational exposure. Conclusion: Therefore, the study demonstrated that healthcare providers opted to treat themselves when exposed to patient with infectious disease, rather than comply with the hospital reporting and assessment protocol.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to describe general practitioners (GPs)' opinions and practices of preventive care and patients' opinions, attitudes, and behaviors towards prevention. Methods: The data stemmed from a cross-sectional national survey on prevention conducted in Switzerland from 2015 to 2016. In total, 170 randomly drawn GPs and 1154 of their patients participated. The GPs answered an online questionnaire and the patients answered a questionnaire administrated by fieldworkers present at their practices. Results: Both patients and GPs agreed that delivering preventive care is the dedicated role of a GP. It appeared that beyond classical topics of prevention such as cardiovascular risk factors, other prevention areas (e.g., cannabis consumption, immunization, occupational risks) were scarcely covered by GPs and reported as little-known by patients. In addition, GPs seemed to use a selective approach to prevention, responding to the clinical context, rather than a systematic approach to health promotion. The results also highlight possibilities to improve prevention in family medicine through options such as more supportive tools and public advertising, more time and more delegated tasks and, finally, a more recognized role. Conclusions: Despite an unfavorable context of prevention within the healthcare system, preventive care in family medicine is reasonably good in Switzerland. However, some limitations appear regarding the topics and the circumstances of preventive care delivery. A global effort is needed to implement necessary changes, and the responsibility should be broadened to other stakeholders.

본 연구는 이스라엘 보사교육부가 중학생을 위하여 개발 실시한 흡연예방 교육프로그램의 효과를 분석하고자 실시되었다. 이스라엘은 15세 미만의 청소년 흡연율이 다른나라 청소년들의 흡연율에 비해 가장 낮음에도 불구하고 18세가 되면서부터 청소년 흡연율은 현저하게 증가되고 있다. 이를 이스라엘 정부에서는 청소년들이 만 18세가 되면 2년간의 국방의무를 수행해야 하기 때문인 것으로 분석하고 있다. 때문에 이스라엘 정부는 청소년들이 흡연을 시작하기전에 흡연을 예방하고자 'To Breathe Clean Air'라는 흡연예방 교육프로그램을 계획 하였다. 본 연구는 단일군 사후 설계로 대상은 중학교 1, 2 학년생(7-8graders) 135명이었으며, 연령은 12-14 세로 11%가 흡연 경험이 있거나 흡연중이었고, 이들 중 24%는 이미 10세때부터 흡연을 시작했었다. 흡연하는 남학생이 여학생보다 유의하게 많았으며(p<.01), 학교성적이 스스로 열등하다고 생각하는 군이 그리고 친한 친구중에 흡연자가 있는 군이 흡연을 많이 하는 것으로 나타났다(p<.05). 부모중에 한분이상이 흡연하는 학생이 30%를 차지하였는데, 부모님이 흡연시 그 자녀의 흡연률이 높았으나 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 아니었다. 흡연에 대한 지식정도는 70%의 학생이 중이상의 지식정도를 가지고 있었는데, 남학생일수록, 학년이 높을수록, 학교성적이 우수한 학생일수록, 그리고 친한 친구중에 흡연자가 없을수록 흡연에 대한 지식정도가 높게 나타났고, 이들중 성별과 학년은 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<.05). 흡연에 대한 태도는 남학생일 때, 부친이 흡연을 하고 있을 때, social pressure를 잘 견딜수 있다고 한 군에서 더 부정적인 태도를 보였다(p<.01). 형제들 중 흡연자가 없는 군, 그리고 학교성적이 우수한 군이 흡연에 대한 부정적인 행동의도를 가지고 있었다(p<.01). 흡연에 대한 지식정도가 높을수록 흡연에 대해 더 부정적인 태도를 보였고, 흡연에 대한 부정적인 행동의도를 가진 학생들이 흡연에 대해 더 부정적인 태도를 보였다(p<.01). 흡연예방 교육프로그램 실시후 40%의 학생들이 이 프로그램이 흡연 예방에 효과가 있을 것임을 예측했고, 프로그램에 대한 관심정도는 여학생들이 높았으나(p<.05), 프로그램에 대한 만족정도는 남학생들에서 더 높게 나타났다(p<.01). 이상에서 친한 친구나 부모중에 흡연자가 있을 때 학생들은 흡연을 쉽게 배운다고 나타나 청소년 흡연에는 동료나 부모의 영향과 함께 사회적 압력을 견듸어낼 수 있는 자기효능감이 중요함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 이미 10세 이전에 흡연을 시작하는 학생이 있어 흡연예방 교육프로그램은 초기청소년기에 실시되어져야 한다고 본다.

The purpose of this study was to assess the needs of breast self examination education (BSEE) programs for developing nursing centers. A first, we reviewed the literature of activity and management-related factors of nursing centers: and, second. we used a questionnaire to discover the degree of knowledge, attitude, and practice on breast cancer, as well as an individual's intention to participate BSEE program. 1. Reviewing the literatures of nursing center activities. Nursing centers which were administered by a professional nurse are an ideal site for faculty and student practices. With the use of nursing models of health. professional nurses in nursing centers diagnose and treat human responses to potential and actual health problems and offer holistic, client-centered health service. In nursing centers professional nursing services include health education, health promotion, and health-related research. A nursing center is comprised of the advisory and exacutive commitee; the advisory commitee serves consultants and links community needs to the nursing center, while the director of the exacutive commitee identifies the potential resources to generate funds, support, and facilitate the activities of staffs in a nursing center. Nursing centers mobilize various financal resources for reimbursement of services from college and insurance companies, collect minimum service fees from the client, and further collect fees for providing programs to community groups, this also includes membership fees, and donations. The services provided by nursing centers focus on services related to primary prevention, health maintenance & health promotion, direct nursing care for acute & chronic diseases, and holistic care for actual and potential health problems. The client satisfaction for the services was high. Students also showed positive reponses for their clinical experiences and independent working conditions. 2. The degree of knowledge, attitudes, and practices for breast cancer. and an individual's intention to participate in the BSEE program. The subjects of this study were 308 females in K-city in the Republic of Korea. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire. The mean age of the respondents was 35.0 years old. Those who already participated in the BSEE were 64.9%, and those who had support and encouragement to practice BSE from significant others were 25.1 %. Clients intent to participate in the BSEE were 37.0%. The mean score of knowledge(2.4 out of 5 points) and practices(1.8 out of 5 points) for breast cancer were quite low, but the mean score of attitudes was relatively positive04.5 out of 20 point) for breast cancer. Those who already had BSEE showed significantly high scores in knowledge(t=6.48, p<0.01), attitudes (t=10.54, p<0.01). and practices(t=57.07, p<0.001) for breast cancer than those who had not participated in the BSEE. In all age groups no intention to participate in the BSEE was higher than who the intention to participate. These findings suggest some strategies should be developed to increase the awareness of breast cancer's early detection.

Purpose : This descriptive survey investigated the effects of clinical nurses' critical reflection competency, professional pride, and person-centered care practices on patient safety management activities. Methods : The participants were 183 clinical nurses working at a tertiary hospital in South Korea. The questionnaires consisted of the Critical Reflection Competency Scale for Clinical Nurses Professional Pride the Person-Centered Nursing Assessment Tool and Patient Safety Management Activities. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVA, Tukey's HSD, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression using SPSS 29.0. Results : The mean score for patient safety management activities was 4.65±0.34 out of 5. There were significant differences in patient safety management activities according to age (F=3.90, p =.010), education level (t=-2.56, p =.013), total work experience (F=3.87, p =.010), and the number of healthcare accreditation system experiences (F=5.22, p =.006). Patient safety management activities were positively correlated with critical reflection competency (r=.337, p <.001), professional pride (r=.271, p <.001), and person-centered care practices (r=.399, p <.001). The results indicated that person-centered care practices affected patient safety management activities (𝛽=.358, p <.001) with the explanatory power of 22.5%. Conclusion : To improve clinical nurses' patient safety management activities, it is necessary to develop participatory educational programs that can integrate skills and attitudes based on conceptual knowledge of person-centered care. Intervention studies are needed to test the effect of person-centered care on patient safety when applied in clinical practice.

Purpose: Physicians' attitudes may have a strong influence on women's decision regarding prenatal screening options. The aim of this study is to assess the physicians' attitudes toward prenatal screening for fetal aneuploidy including non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) in South Korea. Materials and Methods: Questionnaires were distributed and collected at several obstetrics-gynecological conferences and meetings. The questionnaire included 31 multiple choice and 5 fill-in-the-blank questions. Seven questions requested physicians' demographic information, 17 questions requested information about the NIPT with cell-free fetal DNA, and 12 questions requested information about general prenatal screening practices. Results: Of the 203 obstetricians that completed the survey. In contrast with professional guidelines recommending the universal offering of aneuploidy screening, only 53.7% answered that prenatal aneuploidy testing (screening and/or invasive diagnostic testing) should be offered to all pregnant women. Physicians tended to have positive attitudes toward the clinical application of NIPT as both primary and secondary screening methods for patients at high-risk for fetal trisomy. However, for patients at average-risk for fetal trisomy, physicians tended to have positive attitudes only as a secondary screening method. Physicians with more knowledge about NIPT were found to tend to inform their patients that the detection rate of NIPT is higher. Conclusion: This is the first study to investigate expert opinion on prenatal screening in South Korea. Education of physicians is essential to ensure responsible patient counseling, informed consent, and appropriate management after NIPT.

본 연구는 친환경제품구매행위에 영향을 미치는 심리적 선행요인들을 설명한다. 먼저 친환경제품구매행위에 영향을 미치는 것으로 여겨지는 세 가지 주요 심리요인-개인가치, 환경태도, 제품속성에 대한 선호도-를 논의하고, 이들이 어떻게 친환경구매결정과 관계하는지를 검토한다. 이를 위해 논의된 주요 변인들간의 상호관계를 보여주는 개념적 모델을 제안하고 설문조사를 통해 수집된 자료를 사용하여 실증적으로 검토하였다. 실증분석 결과, 박애 및 보편주의 성향이 강한 가치관은 개인의 환경태도에 직접적인 영향을 미치며 보편주의 가치성향은 제품의 친환경속성 선호도에도 직접적인 영향을 미친다. 특정가치성향은 환경태도와 제품의 친환경속성에 미치는 영향을 통해 환경제품구매행위에도 간접적인 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 제품의 친환경속성에 대한 선호는 환경태도와 친환경제품구매행위 사이의 중요 매개변수로 나타났으나 제품의 가격속성에 대한 선호는 두 변수간 매개변수의 역할에는 실패했다. 본 연구의 특징은 친환경제품구매행위의 근간으로 개인가치의 중요성을 확인해 주었으며 그들의 설명력을 높여주는 주요 매개변인들의 역할을 보여주었다. 이는 적합한 매개변인의 고려가 기존의 가치-행위 그리고 태도-행위간의 관계를 강화시킬 수 있음을 시사한다. 마지막으로, 친환경마케팅에 유용한 실제적인 적용들을 제시한다.
