목적: 삼교대 근무로 인하여 생활이 불규칙적이기 쉬운 교대근무 간호에서 Type D 성격 유형의 빈도를 조사하고 Type D 성격 유형 여부에 따른 건강증진 행위, 주관적 건강상태, 직무만족을 비교하고자 한다. 방법: 서술적 단면 연구로 139명의 교대근무 간호사를 대상으로 편의 추출하여 설문조사를 수행하였다. 자가보고식 설문은 Type D 성격 유형, 건강증진행위, 주관적 건강상태, 직무만족 도구를 포함하였다. 결과: 전체 참여자의 38.1%인 53명의 간호사가 Type D 성격 유형으로 나타났다. 비록 Type D 성격 유형을 가진 간호사들과 그렇지 않은 간호사들 간에 유의한 차이는 없었지만, Type D 성격 유형의 간호사들이 보다 어리고 혼자 사는 경우가 더 많으며 임상경력이 짧은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 주관적 건강상태, 건강증진행위, 직무만족은 Type D 성격 유형이 아닌 간호사들보다 Type D 성격 유형의 간호사에서 더 낮게 나타났다. 주관적 건강상태는 건강증진행위,

Purpose: In this study cardiovascular health status and health behavior of Korean women based on their household income were explored. Methods: For this cross-sectional study, 91 women residing in the community were recruited to complete survey questionnaires and biophysical tests including blood pressure (BP), body mass index (BMI), body fat rate, waist circumference (WC), and blood chemistry tests. Results: Compared to non-low income women (NLIW), low income women (LIW) were more likely to be

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the level of resilience and related factors in patients with Parkinson's disease(PD) in Korea.

The RS score was strongly correlated with the BDI score(r=-.531, p<.001) and the AI(r=-.572, p<.0

Purpose: This study was done to assess the bone mineral density (BMD), biochemical bone turnover markers (BTMs), and factors associatedwith bone health in young Korean women. Methods: Participants were 1,298 women, ages 18-29, recruited in Korea. Measurementswere BMD by calcaneus quantitative ultrasound, BTMs for Calcium, Phosphorus, Osteocalcin, and C-telopeptide cross-links(CTX), body composition by physical measurements, nutrients by food frequency questionnaire and psychosocial factors assoc

Physical inactivity is prevalent among ethnic minority women including Korean American (KA) women.

PURPOSE: This randomized control trial was designed to examine the effect on the self-managing ability for promoting bone health of mobile type-bone health intervention (mobile type-BHI). METHODS: The mobile type-BHI consisted of a mobile application called "Strong bone, Fit body" (SbFb) and group education. A total of 82 college women with low bone mass (Z score < -1) participated. They were assigned randomly to three groups, experimental group I, (n = 28), experimental group II (n = 32), and c

Effective community programs for vulnerable women at risk of cardiovascular disease should be based on strategies targeting unhealthy behaviors and modifiable risk factors.

Results of this study indicate that bone health of young Korean women is not good. Development of diverse strategies to intervene in factors such as exercise, nutrients, self-efficacy, health beliefs and behaviors, shown to be important, are needed to improve bone health.
