Purpose: The aim of this study was to develop a breast feeding adaptation scale (BFAS) to evaluate adaptation to breastfeeding for breastfeeding mothers and their infants and to test the validity and reliability of the instrument. Methods: The study was conducted as follows: application of the conceptual framework, identification of the content domains, items generation, and test of validity and reliability. In order to test validity and reliability, two panels of experts reviewed items and subcategories of the preliminary questionnaire and then data were collected from 329 mothers who were up to 4 weeks postpartum and breastfeeding. Descriptive statistics, t-test, factor analysis, and Cronbach's alpha were used to analyze the data. Results: The conceptual framework was based on the Roy adaptation model. The content domains were developed via literature review, review of instruments, and data acquired from the interviews of breastfeeding mothers and nurses. A total of 69 items belonging to 8 domains were generated. A reduction to 44 preliminary items was accomplished through content validity analysis. Factor analysis extracted 8 factors with a total of 27 items on a 5-point Likert scale. Content validity, construct validity, criterion validity, and reliability of the BFAS were established. Conclusion: The newly developed BFAS is a reliable and valid instrument with which the adaptation of breastfeeding mothers and their infants to the breastfeeding behavior can be evaluated.

Purpose: This study aimed to develop a Hybrid Clinical Practicum Environment Scale for Nursing Students (HCPES-NS) and verify its validity and reliability. Methods: The HCPES-NS was constructed following the DeVellis guidelines. The initial items were written based on a literature review and individual in-depth interviews. Content validity was verified through an expert panel review. To confirm the validity and reliability of the scale, a survey was conducted with 449 nursing students enrolled in 12 nursing colleges. Data were analyzed using item analysis, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, concurrent validity, and reliability tests. Results: Factor analysis showed that the HCPES-NS consists of 15 items on five subdomains: clinical site atmosphere, interpersonal relationship, alternative online practicum contents, provision of learning information, and clinical performance facilitation. A higher score indicated a more positive perception of the clinical practicum environment. The concurrent validity of the HCPES-NS was confirmed by its positive correlation with the Clinical Learning Environment Scale (r = .77). The Cronbach's α reliability of the HCPES-NS was .84. Conclusion: The HCPES-NS is both valid and reliable. This scale reflects the clinical practicum environment and includes an online practicum factor. It may be used effectively by faculty members and educators to evaluate nursing students' perceptions of clinical practicum environments.

Developing reliable measures of the environment is important to increase our understanding of the environmental effects on walking among seniors. As a preliminary study for developing an instrument for measuring walkability of seniors' environment, the purpose of this study are to identify important assessment indicators associated with seniors' walking and to test their reliability using inter-rater and intra-rater reliability methods. A set of assessment indicators was identified through literature review, and field studies by trained raters were conducted in three senior centers located in Seongnam area in order to test reliability of the audit tool. The results indicated high percent agreement for most indicators and overall 91.6% and 86.1% of items assessed had good or medium inter-rater and intra-rater reliability, respectively. The reliable assessment indicators would provide reliable data for use in community-based audits of built environment in relation to walking among older adults. The findings showed that the indicators of aesthetics had lower reliability compare to safety, convenience, and access. Rater training with various images would improve rater agreement while reduce rater bias.

Objective: The aim of this study is to describe several issues which should be considered in the human reliability analysis of soft control operations in nuclear power plants. Background: The operational environment of advanced main control rooms is totally different from that of conventional control rooms. The soft control is one of the major distinguishable features of the advanced main control rooms. The soft control operations should be analyzed to estimate the effects on human reliability. Method: The literatures, about task analysis, simulation data analysis, and a human reliability analysis method for the soft control, were reviewed. From the review, important issues for the human reliability analysis of the soft control were raised. Results: The results of task and simulation data analysis showed that the soft control characteristics could have large effect on human reliability and they should be considered in the human reliability analysis of the soft control operations. Conclusion: The soft control may affect human error and performance of operators. The issues described in this paper should be considered in the human reliability method for the advanced main control rooms. Application: The results of the soft control operation analysis might help to design more efficient interface and education/training program for preventing human errors. The described issues might help to develop a human reliability analysis method for soft control operations.

Objective: This study aimed to review scales and tests developed for or validated with children and their families that were published in the Korean Journal of Child Studies from 1984 to 2016. Specifically, the purpose of the present study was to analyze the contents and format of the selected instruments, as well as to evaluate their psychometric properties. Methods: Using several databases and journal archives from the Korean Journal of Child Studies, searches were implemented using the key terms: instrument, scale, development, and validation. Instruments from 76 selected studies were reviewed based on several characteristics, such as assessment areas, contents, respondents, responding types, and psychometric properties. Results and Conclusion: First, a majority of the reviewed instruments were developed for infants and children, whereas only one was developed for adolescents. With regard to their specific measurement domains, many instruments focused on social emotional development among children. Second, with a few exceptions, the selected studies provided appropriate evidence for the reliability of the instrument, including its internal consistency, inter-rater reliability, and spilt-half reliability. Many studies also reported on the criterion-related or construct validity of the instrument to establish its validity. Future studies need to develop instruments across diverse developmental areas that collect information from multiple sources and raters. In addition, more evidence on the reliability and validity of the reviewed instruments should be provided to demonstrate their psychometric qualities.

본 연구는 노인의 인지능력을 기능적 관점에서 평가하기 위해 개발된 인지수행척도(Cognitive Performance Scale, CPS)가 우리나라 요양병원의 임상환경에 적합한지를 검증하기 위해 수행되었다. 이를 위해 CPS와 MMSE(Mini-Mental State Examination), GDS(Global Deterioration Scale)간의 수렴타당도, 조사자간 일치도, 내적 일관성을 측정하였다. 2개의 치매전문 요양병원 입원환자 393명을 대상으로 해당병원의 간호사가 표준화된 작성지침을 이용하여 CPS를 직접 측정하였고, 이 점수가 해당병원의 의사, 간호사가 측정한 GDS점수, 건강보험 청구 자료의 MMSE점수와 상관성이 있는지 분석하였다. 또한 동일 환자에 대해 또 한명의 간호사가 CPS를 한 번 더 측정하여 기존의 CPS점수와 비교하였다. 그 결과 CPS는 GDS와 중등도 이상의 상관관계(r=0.742, p<0.0001)를 보였고, MMSE와는 높은 상관관계(r=-0.794, p<0.0001)를 보였다. CPS의 Cronbach ${\alpha}$ 계수는 0.742로 높은 내적 일관성을 나타냈고 조사자간 일치도를 보기 위해 산출한 문항별 Kappa 계수는 0.772~1.000이었다. 우리나라 요양병원 환경에서도 노인의 인지능력을 기능적 관점에서 평가하기 위해 CPS를 사용하는 것이 타당하다고 판단된다.
