Objective: The purpose of this study were to: (1) describe the individual characteristics, perceived health status, body image, and health promoting behaviors of staff nurses working in a metropolitan hospital and (2) determine the relationship of perceived health status, body image, and health promoting behaviors. Methods: Data were collected from 311 staff nurses working at one of university affiliated hospitals using a self-administered questionnaire for perceived health status(SF 36 V2), body image(BAQ), and health promoting behaviors (HPLP-II) and using the report of year 2002 employee physical check-up results for health related characteristics. Results: Most of nurses were within the normal range of BMI, total cholesterol, and liver enzymes but 42.2% had systolic BP above 120mmHg and 37.3% hemoglobin below 12g/dL. Although 96.4% of BMI score indicated 'underweight' or 'normal', 'feeling fat' showed the highest. Among health promoting behaviors the most frequently reported one was spiritual growth and the least one was engagement in physical activity. In the correlational analysis, health promoting behaviors had the positive relationships with perceived health status, vitality, mental health, attractiveness, strength and fitness (p=.000 - .004). Conclusion: These findings provide information that is relevant in designing interventions to enhance health promoting behaviors among nurses working in a hospital.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship between self efficacy (SE), health promoting behaviors (HPB) and symptoms of stress (SOS) among university students. Method: Data was collected by questionnaires from 369 university students in Seoul, Korea. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, pearson correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression. Results: The mean score for SE was 3.42, the mean score for HPB was 2.48, and the mean score for SOS was 2.31. The score of SOS showed a significantly negative correlation with the score of SE (r=-.24, p=.00) and HPB (r=-.13, r=.00). Also, SOS showed a significantly negative correlation with diet HPB (r=-.15, p=.00), spiritual growth HPB (r=-.17, p=.00), interpersonal relationship HPB (r=-.17, p=.00), and stress management HPB (r=-.10, p=.04). The most powerful predictor of SOS was SE and the variance was $10\%$. A combination of SE, diet, problems related to drinking, and responsibility for health HPB account for $16\%$ of the variance in SOS among university students. Conclusion: This study suggests that SE and HPB are significant influencing factors on SOS among university students.

Purpose: This scoping review identified scientific evidence on basic human needs (BHNs) in the elderly receiving palliative care. Methods: Systematic searches were conducted using six electronic databases (PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus, Lilacs, IBECS, and Web of Science). The initial search resulted in 1,227 articles, of which 104 were identified as potentially relevant. Fifty-three articles that met the inclusion criteria were identified and included in the final analysis. Results: Using the three hierarchical dimensions of the BHN model, 17 needs were organised, with five in the psychobiological dimension, 10 in the psychosocial dimension, and two in the psychospiritual dimension. These needs reflect the importance of care with dignity and relief from suffering for the elderly in palliative care. Conclusion: Recognising impaired BHNs in elderly people receiving palliative care will contribute to better care plans for the elderly, considering the multiple bio-psycho-social-spiritual dimensions of BHNs. This review points to a predominance of psychosocial needs.

Purpose : This research is a descriptive study that aimed to identify the levels of health promotion behaviors, fatigue, and depression of nursing students and confirm the effect of health promotion behaviors on fatigue and depression. Methods : Data were collected from September 27 to October 15, 2021 through survey questionnaires on 178 nursing students of 2 universities in G-do who voluntarily agreed to participate. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 23.0, the general characteristics of nursing students were analyzed by frequency and percentage, and the levels of their health promotion behaviors, fatigue, and depression of nursing students was analyzed by mean and standard deviation. The relationship among the health promotion behaviors, fatigue, and depression was analyzed by Pearson's Correlation Coefficient. Multiple regression analysis was performed for the effects of health promotion behaviors on fatigue and depression of nursing students. Results : The nursing students' health promotion behaviors averaged 2.25±.43 points out of 5, and for each sub-factor, interpersonal relationship was the highest at 2.66±.49 points and physical activity was the lowest at 2.01±.60 points. Fatigue was 4.89±1.02 points out of 7 and depression was 10.52±9.10 points out of 63. A statistically significant correlation was found among health promotion behaviors, fatigue, and depression. Health promotion behaviors that significantly affected fatigue were stress management (𝛽=-.263, p=.004) and physical activity (𝛽=-.208, p=.026), which showed 35 % explanatory power on fatigue. Health promotion behaviors that significantly affected depression were spiritual growth (𝛽=-.342, p=.002), and physical activity (𝛽=-.231, p=.016), which showed 31 % explanatory power for depression. Conclusion : This study is meaningful in that it provided basic data to develop an effective health promotion behavior program to prevent and manage nursing students' fatigue and depression, by identifying and analyzing the sub-factors of health promotion behaviors affecting their fatigue and depression.
