While meditative mindfulness has been widely studied, socio-cognitive mindfulness has received little attention in nursing literature, despite its potential benefits to the field. This study investigated relationships between nursing students’ socio-cognitive mindfulness, emotion regulation (reappraisal and suppression), and achievement emotions, and explored the mediating effects of emotion regulation. Methods: A total of 459 nursing students from three universities in Korea completed the questionnaire measuring the study variables. Structural equation modeling and path analysis were conducted to test the hypotheses. Results: Socio-cognitive mindfulness was found to positively influence reappraisal while negatively influencing suppression. Additionally, socio-cognitive mindfulness positively predicted positive achievement emotions but negatively predicted negative ...

Design/methodology/approach A cross-sectional design was used with 168 nurses in South Korea. Structural equation modeling and path analysis were conducted for analysis. Findings Reappraisal correlated positively with enjoyment and pride and negatively with anxiety, anger and frustration, whereas suppression correlated negatively with enjoyment and positively with anxiety and frustration. Moreover, reappraisal was negatively associated with emotional exhaustion, whereas suppression was positively associated with it. Enjoyment was negatively related to emotional exhaustion, and anger and frustration were positively related to it.

Methods: The data was collected by using the tools of successful aging, health promoting behavior, depression based on 280 women aged over 65 in 16 centers for senior citizens located in B-district, J-province from June to July 2016, and 273 copies suitable for the study were analyzed. Results: It was analyzed that the successful aging and health promoting behavior showed the significant positive correlation (r = 0.86, p < 0.01), the successful aging and depression (r =-0.74, p < 0.01), and the health promoting behavior and depression (r =-0.67, p < 0.01) showed the significant negative correlation. The factors affecting the successful aging of the elderly women in rural areas were the health promoting behavior (β = 0.24, p < 0.001) and depression (β =-0.20, p < 0.001), and the explanatory power of model was 82.2% (F = 314.27, p < 0.001).

Results: In the healthcare service field there were 9 studies (69.2%) in the medical area, 1 study (7.7%) each in nursing and oriental medicine, and 2 studies (15.4%) in healthcare. According to analysis results based on the medical service classification code, there were 5 studies in prevention and management, 6 studies in curative care, 1 each in rehabilitation and ancillary care. Double diamond process was used in 8 studies. Conclusion: Service design was applied mainly to the curative care in the domestic medical settings but little research on service design in the long-term nursing care area was identified. As a strategy to improve the quality of nursing service, it is necessary to adopt the service design process for various nursing service areas in Korea.

Methods: A review was performed using domestic databases including RISS, KISS, DBpia, and NDSL. Twenty-three papers were analyzed according to general characteristics, key variables regarding reflection, and findings regarding reflection. Results: Reflection in nursing research has received attention since 2005, generating almost half the publications in the last 3 years. Key variables regarding reflection were classified into reflection-related general term (34.7%), reflective action (8.6%), and reflection writing method (56.7%). Findings regarding reflection were categorized into correlation of reflection with other variables (26.1%), learning evaluation using a reflective journal (22.2%), effects of applying reflection as an intervention (47.4%), and Korean Self-Reflection and Insight Scale validation (4.3%). Conclusion: Results indicate that reflection or reflective practice is an important component in integrating theories to practice, and that reflective practice is a prerequisite to becoming a professional nurse as well as a crucial tool for ideal changes in nursing. Considerable effort should be made to define the concept of reflective practice and effectively apply it to nursing education and practice in Korea.

As the tertiary industry became a primary industry in the 1990s, South Korea saw local manufacturing and production manpower decrease and accepted foreign workers to solve this problem. In the 2000s, social avoidance of marriage with men in the primary industry led to a drastic increase in the number of international marriages [1]. According to the statistical report made by Ministry of Gender Equality and Family in 2015, the number of Married immigrants, naturalized person in South Korea is estimated at 304,516, which increased 7.52% compared to in 2012. However, multicultural families in South Korea have lots of problems to solve due to different cultures and living habits compared with general families. Such problems can affect children in

Methods: A search and screening of the literature uncovered, 49 related studies done between 2003 and 2016 were then reviewed. A meta-analysis of 44 studies from doctoral dissertations, master's thesis and published articles was also carried out. The correlational effect size (ESr) for each related variable was calculated. Results: Sixty-nine related variables were identified from the systematic review. Twentythree (5 personal, 13 professional and 5 organizational) variables were eligible for meta-analysis. The overall effect size was .47. The personal factors (ESr=.48) and the professional factors (ESr=.44) had larger effect size than the organizational factors (ESr=.28). Factors with the largest effect size among personal, professional and organizational factors were self-efficacy (ESr=.58), nursing service (ESr=.68) and supervisor's leadership (ESr=.36) respectively. Conclusion: The results of this study show that for Korean clinical nurses individual factors including personal or professional factors have a stronger impact on self-leadership than organizational factors. It is necessary to develop interventions and training programs which focus on improving self-efficacy to promote self-leadership in clinical nurses.

Efforts should be made to strengthen or reduce relevant factors. We developed a structural equation model for following HAI-control guidelines. Overall, 388 Korean registered nurses participated in this study and data collection was conducted Jul 21-Aug 31, 2014 using a self-reported questionnaire, and 392 of 400 copies were collected (98% recovery rate). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, reliability, and Pearson's coefficient. Model identification evaluation was conducted by goodness-of-fit index and impact analysis. Results of goodness-of-fit of modified model were as follows: χ=120.57 (df=16, <.001), GFI (Goodness of Fit Index)=.95, RMSEA (Root-Mean-Square Error of Approximation)=.10, SRMR (Standardizes Root-Mean-Square residual)=.06, NFI (Normal Fir Index)=.90, CFI (Comparative Fit Index)=.90....
