Methods: At 2 hospitals in affi liation of university, after obtaining participant`s consent form, data were collected from October to November, 2007. Twohundred fifty nurses participated in the study. Questionnaire consisted of Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), Job Involvement. Collected data was analyzed with SPSS 14.0 program, which was used for frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test and Pearson correlation coeffi cients. Results: Major findings of this study were as follows 1) The nurses for 3 shift work was 172 (68.8%), the nurses for 2 shift work was 3 (1.2%) and the nurses for day fixation was 75 (30.0%). 2) Mean of ESS was 5.94 (3.28), daytime sleepiness was 13.2% and Job involvement had a mean of 21.27.±4.61. 3) There were significant differences between shift work and day fixed work on ESS (t=4.33, p<.001), job involvement (t=6.54, p<.001). Higher ESS were significantly related to lower job involvement (r=-.185, p=.003). Conclusion: The finding of this study gives useful informations about sleep and work involvement of hospital nurses.

Methods: The assessment strategies for CPXs were developed. It included clinical scenarios, the roles of standardized patients, and appraisal criteria in the areas of fundamental and comprehensive nursing care. The CPXs were implemented to about 60-70 fourth-year nursing students of C University in G-city, South Korea, during every second semester from the year of 2006 to 2009. Results: The effects of CPXs were measured by 10 or 25-item rating checklist. Internal reliability of the checklists was distributed from .511 to .956 and interrater agreement between faculties and standardized patients was moderate (r=.250-.949). Students` satisfaction level was 4.27 out of 5 points for four years. Conclusion: The use of CPXs was an innovative educational strategy to evaluate nursing students` comprehensive performance ability including knowledge, skills and attitude.

Abstract
Purpose: Patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) is an effective method for controlling post surgical pain. However, it is associated with adverse drug reactions such as nausea and vomiting. In this, study we tested the effects of Nei-Guan (P6) acupressure on PCEA-associated nausea, vomiting, and pain in geriatric patients after total knee replacement arthroplasty (TKRA). Methods: Ninety-nine patients who had TKRA for the first time were randomly assigned to either, experiment group (n=50) or control groups (n=49). All patients received PCEA immediately after surgery, but acupressure on Nei-Guan (P6) point was applied to experiment group only. Ten minutes of finger acupressure on Nei-Guan (P6) acupressure point was applied twice with 15 minute-interval in the experiment group. The incidence of nausea, vomiting, and retching as well as pain intensity were assessed at 12 and 24 hours after surgery. Nausea, and vomiting were assessed by Index of Nausea, Vomiting and Retching (INVR) questionnaire. Pain intensity was measured with frequency of analgesics. Results: Vomiting both was significantly different between two groups at 12 hours (t=-2.18, p=0.03) and 24 hours (t=-2.64, p=0.01) after surgery. Total scores of nausea, vomiting and retching in experimental group was significantly lower than control group 24hours after surgery (t=- 2.18, p=0.03). However, pain was not different between two groups. Conclusion: Nei-Guan (P6) acupressure may be considered as an effective nursing intervention to decrease PCEA-associated nausea and vomiting in older patients after TKRA.

Abstract
Purpose: This study was done to compare organizational commitment, job satisfaction and job stress according to nurses` adult attachment styles. Methods: Data were collected by self-report questionnaires measuring Adult attachment style, Organizational commitment, Job satisfaction and Job stress from a convenience sample of 253 shift nurses in a hospital. Results: There were security style (31.2%), dismissingavoidance (18.6%), preoccupation (17.8%) and fearful-avoidance (32.4%) among 4 attachment styles in these shift nurses. Their organizational commitment level (M=3.2), job satisfaction (M=2.7) and job stress (M=3.3) were revealed. Subjects who were in security attachment style showed significantly higher scores of organizational commitment (F=5.09, p=.002) and job satisfaction (F=13.02, p<.001) than subjects in fearful-avoidance attachment style. Meanwhile, this study showed that subjects who were in fearful-avoidance attachment style recorded significantly higher scores of job stress than subjects in any other attachment style (F=3.15, p=.026). Conclusion: This study demonstrated a relevant difference in organizational commitment, job satisfaction and job stress in accordance with the attachment style of shift nurses. These results indicate the need for attachment promotion program for shift nurses. And nurses` attachment styles should be considered in future interventions to enhance quality of nursing care.

Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship among suicidal ideation, parental attachment, and self-identity of collegestudents. Methods: This study was designed as a descriptive correlational research. The participants were 314 college students in Gyeongbuk province. Data were collected from September 23 to Oct 5 in 2009 using a structured questionnaire. Data were analyzed by t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson correlation coeffi cient using SPSS WIN (Version 12.0). Results: Suicidal ideation showed negative correlations with maternal and paternal attachment (r=-.20, p<.001; r=-.24, p<.001, respectively) as well as self-identity (r=-.37, p<.001). Self-identity had positive correlations with maternal and attachment (r=.16, p=.006; r=.23, p<.001, respectively). Conclusion: The findings suggest that suicidal ideation may be decreased when college students have higher parental attachment and self-identity. Strategies to improve parental attachment and self-identity are needed in near future.

Results: Depression was found to have a statistically negative correlation with health promotion behavior. Self-effi cacy was found to have a statistically positive correlation with health promotion behavior. Stepwise multiple regression analysis revealed that the most powerful predictor of health promotion behavior was depression. Depression, self-effi cacy, number of chronic disease, and economic status accounted for 35.2% of the variance. Conclusion: It is necessary to prepare health promotion programs that can reduce depression level and improve self-effi cacy in elders living alone in rural area.
