  • Purpose: This study was examined the effects of a hepatitis A education on attitude, vaccination intention, and preventive behavior. Methods: Eighty-eight college students at two universities participated in this study. The data were collected from August 29 to September 30 in 2011 and were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, and ${\chi}^2$ test. Results: There were no significant differences of preventive behavior of hepatitis A between the positive and negative message groups (t=1.10, p=.499). However, the negative message group had a significantly higher attitude of preventive behavior (t=0.92, p=.049) and vaccination intention (${\chi}^2$=5.43, p=.039) than the positive message group. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that negatively framed messages are effective on increasing the attitude, vaccination intention, and preventive behavior.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of job stress and social support on the organizational effectiveness of hospital employees and to examine the role of social support in the experience of job stress among the employees. Previous studies have yielded mixed results regarding the role of social support. Some studies provide supporting evidence for the buffering effect of social support, while others do not. Still others report findings about reverse buffering effects. These inconsistent findings are, in part, accounted for by methodological problems such as poor measurement, small sample size, and the existence of high multicollinearity. To examine more rigorously the role of social support in relation to the negative effects of job stress, this study was carefully designed to overcome methodolgical shortcomings found in the past research. In addition, unlike the previous studies, which were concerned mostly with health-related variables as consequences of job stress, in this study, three work-related variables (job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and intent to stay) which had close relationships with organizational effectiveness were examined as output variables. The sample used in this study consisted of 353 employees from a university hospital in the surburbs of Seoul. Data were collected with self-administered questionnaires and analyzed using canonical analysis and hierarchical regression analysis. The results of this study indicate that; (1) job stress has negative main effects on job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and intent to stay; (2) social support has positive main effects on the same three output variables, (3) social support does not moderate the harmful effects of job stress on the three outcome variables, and (4) the three-way interaction effects of (social support * job stress * gender) and of (social support * job stress * education) are not supported. The implications of these findings for the management of human resources are discussed.

  • Objective : In order to establish the scientific research methods to prove the effects of korean traditional medicine about ultraviolet induced skin damage, we investigated the research on ultraviolet induced skin damage in the korean traditional medicine field. Method : We searched the papers about ultraviolet induced skin damage published in the journals of korean traditional medicine. The searching end date was on June 29, 2015. Results : Thirty papers about ultraviolet induced skin damage were found. Twenty nine papers were experimental research, and one paper was clinical research. Sixty-three percent of papers were written the years after 2011. Fifty-seven percent of papers were published in the korean journal of oriental physiology & pathology and the journal of korean oriental medical ophthalmology & otolaryngology & dermatology. Main outcome measures of experimental research were anti-wrinkle effects, anti-oxidant capacity, anti-apoptosis effects, whitening effects and anti-inflammatory effects. Conclusion : We need more systematic research in order to prove the effects of korean traditional medicine, and use extensively.
