The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate a nutrition education program that was designed to increase the knowledge, attitudes, and skills of Korean adults regarding nutrition labeling. The education program was 45 minutes of short-term training, which was conducted in the form of lectures and exercises. The contents of the program were as follows: in the introduction stage, talking about status and reasons for checking nutrition labels; in the development stage, explanation of nutrition labeling and their content, reading, and identifying sample nutrition labels, as well as comparing nutrition labels and selecting better foods; in the closing stage, summary of nutrition labeling and a pledge to check nutrition labels when purchasing processed food. A total of 53 adults (88.5% female) aged 30 years and over participated in this study. The nutrition labeling awareness of the subjects was increased significantly from 55.8 to 96.2% after the education. After the education, the correct recognition rate of a nutrition label was increased significantly from 26.9 to 78.8% for the amount of food, from 25.0 to 73.1% for the calorie content, from 36.5 to 69.2% for the nutrient contents, and from 30.8 to 82.7% for the percent daily value. The self-efficacy of checking nutrition labels was also increased significantly compared to that before the education. The overall satisfaction score of the nutrition education program was 4.2 out of 5. The outcome showed that the nutrition education program of nutrition labeling improved the participants’ awareness and self-efficacy towards checking nutrition labels.

This study examined the effects of ‘Dietary education for children’s health UP’ (DECHUP) on the changes in knowledge, attitudes, and practice (KAP) of nutrition and food safety in 5th grade elementary school students in Incheon. The DECHUP program was conducted from May to October 2018 and consisted of education and activities focusing on the children’s levels of understanding. Data were collected before, immediately after, and 6 weeks after DECHUP using the same method. All data were analyzed using SPSS ver 20.0. The level of knowledge and attitudes of the subjects to nutrition and food safety was significantly higher after than before DECHUP, but the attitude of boys did not show any significant difference after 6 weeks. Although there were no significant differences in the behavior for nutrition in the practice of the subjects, there were significant positive changes in the behavior of food safety. The higher the satisfaction of DECHUP, the more positive the change in knowledge, and the more positive the attitude and practice behaviors. Therefore, DECHUP has positive effects on the KAP of the subjects, and it will be helpful for elementary school students to form desirable eating habits if it can be carried out periodically and continuously.

현대인들은 급격한 사회문화의 변화에 대한 적응과 극심한 경쟁 상황 속에서 항상 몸과 마음의 긴장을 느끼며 살아가고 있다. 긴장은 결국 신체적인 또는 정신적인 질병의 형태로 나타나게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 연구자가 15여 년 동안 자기경영법을 연구하고 개발하여 교육프로그램으로 구성하였다. 본 연구에 적용한 교육 프로그램은 헬피니스 자기경영 운영체계이며, 이 교육을 통해 현대인들이 겪는 긴장, 스트레스 완화에 긍정적인 영향을 줄 수 있는지 밝히며, 자기관리와 계발 차원에서 누구나 활용하여 좋은 습관을 가지며, 개인복지에 도움이 될 수 있도록 하는데 목적이 있다. 본 연구에서 헬피니스 자기경영 운영체계 교육에 참여한 실험집단이 스트레스지각 점수가 감소하고, 직무스트레스 점수가 감소하는 유의한 결과를 내었으나 그 영향이 직무성과로 이어지는 효과성을 검증하지는 못하였다. 그러나 본 연구에서 헬피니스 자기경영 운영체계 교육이 스트레스 완화에는 영향을 줄 수 있다는 것에 의의를 둔다. 연구기간이 2주로 짧게 설계하여 직무성과로 이어지는 효과성을 검증하기에는 제한이 있었다.

본 연구의 목적은 TREASURE Talk-CCTV 모델을 활용하여 입양모를 대상으로 영유아기 입양 자녀와의 부정적 상호작용을 감소시키고 긍정적 상호작용을 증대시키기 위한 교육 훈련프로그램의 효과성을 검증하는 것이다. 연구 문제는 첫째, TREASURE Talk-CCTV 모델을 활용한 입양모의 긍정적 상호작용 교육 훈련 프로그램의 효과를 확인하고, 둘째, TREASURE Talk-CCTV 모델을 활용한 입양모의 교육 훈련 프로그램을 통한 부정적 상호작용의 변화를 확인하는 것으로 설정하였다. 교육 훈련 프로그램의 효과 검증을 위하여 입양모 12인을 대상으로 관찰을 통한 아동-성인 상호작용 척도인 CICAIO와 CCTV 모델에 기반한 성인-아동의 부정적 상호작용 척도 ACNIS를 활용하여 사전-사후-추후 검증을 진행하였고, 반복측정 분산분석(Repeated measure ANOVA)으로 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 입양모-영유아 자녀의 긍정적 상호작용을 증대시키고, 부정적 상호작용을 감소시키는 유의미한 효과를 확인하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 TREASURE Talk-CCTV 모델을 활용한 선행연구와 동일한 결과가 나타남을 확인하였고, 입양가족을 대상으로 부모-자녀 상호작용 교육의 실제 적용이 가능하다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다는 점에서 의의가 있다.

본 연구의 목적은 영유아기 교사의 학대언어제한과 촉진적 상호작용을 위하여 교육훈련하고 그 효과를 분석하여 언어학대를 예방하기 위한 목적으로 수행되었다. 이에 따른 연구문제는 영유아교사에게 TREASURE Talk-CCTV 모델을 활용한 학대언어제한과 촉진적 상호작용프로그램을 구성하고, 상호작용프로그램의 효과를 분석하는 것이다. 교육훈련프로그램은 동영상, 도구(TREASURE STICK), 연습용 스크립트의 세 가지로 제작되었고 총 7시간 과정의 훈련체계를 구성하여 영아교사 18명, 유아교사 20명으로 단일사례 집단을 대상으로 대응표본 t-test(paired sample t-test)를 실시하였다. 프로그램 효과의 분석을 위해 KP모델에 근거한 아동학대 지필테스트에서 사전-사후 검사결과 아동학대 교육의 이해도가 상승되었으며, CICAIO(Coaching Inventory Child-Adult Interaction Through Observation)척도를 통해 영유아교사 TRE, URE 전체에서 사전검사와 사후검사 간의 차이가 통계적으로 유의미하게 나타났다. 마지막으로 ACNIS(Adult-Child Negative Interaction Scale-based on CCTV model) 척도를 사용하여 영유아교사는 부정적 상호작용 전체에서도 사전검사, 사후검사 간에 통계적으로 유의미한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 개발된 상호작용프로그램은 영유아교사에게 긍정적 상호작용은 향상 되고 부정적 상호작용은 수준을 낮추는 유의미한 효과가 있음이 확인되었다.

This study aimed to develop and evaluate a sugars intake reduction program (SIRP) that was designed to increase the knowledge, attitude, and skills of Korean children aged 5 years regarding sugars intake reduction. A total of 101 children aged 5~6 years from 6 preschools participated in SIRP. SIRP consisted of 4 sessions including 10 activities (e.g., story-telling, arts, experiment, checking nutrition facts, pledge), delivered to children at preschools by nutritionists over a one-month period. Three letters were sent to parents throughout the program to inform them of the children’s activities at the preschools and to provide additional information on reducing children’s sugars intake. A total of 90 children completed the program; 83 parents of these children completed the SIRP evaluation survey. The children’s sugars intake reduction score was significantly increased after attending SIRP. Teachers (n=6) who participated in this program agreed to improve their students’ attitudes on reducing sugars intake and to decrease students’ behaviors related to sugars intake. Parents agreed to improve their children’s attitude on reducing sugars intake and to decrease children’s behaviors related to sugars intake. The outcome showed SIRP improved participants’ attitudes towards sugars reduction and increased the skills to reduce the sugars intake of children aged 5~6 years. Future studies should examine whether SIRP reduces actual sugars intake among children.

Purpose: This study aimed to clarify the effects of simulation-based practice using a standardized patient on nursing students’ problem-solving capacity, self-efficacy for therapeutic communications, and confidence in clinical performance. Methods: We adopted a one-group pretest–posttest experimental design. We examined changes in the students’ problem-solving capacity, self-efficacy for therapeutic communications, and confidence in clinical performance before and after simulation-based practice and after clinical practicum. Results: The scores for problem-solving capacity increased from 159.28 before simulation-based practice to 263.02 after it and 161.99 after clinical practicum, but there was no statistical significance(p=.775, p=.339). The scores for self-efficacy for therapeutic communications rose with statistical significance from 120.78 before simulation-based practice to 126.30 after it (p= .017), but fell to 120.52 after clinical practicum. The scores for confidence in clinical performance increased with statistical significance from 54.98 before simulation-based practice to 59.42 after it (p=.008) and 58.50 after clinical practicum (p<.001). Conclusion: We confirmed that simulation-based practice with a standardized patient offers students hands-on experience of a clinical situation and, thereby, enhances their problem-solving capacity, self-efficacy for therapeutic communications, and confidence in clinical performance.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary education on undergraduate student’s health, environment, and consideration. A total of 54 participants were recruited from an undergraduate student in Seoul. We conductive quantitative analysis of a structured questionnaire and qualitative analysis of interviews recorded by photovoice. There are significant differences among knowledge, dietary attitude, and food behavior in the field of health (p<0.001). In the field of health, photovoice data were categorized as ‘health care practice’, ‘Korean dietary lifestyles’, or ‘awareness of importance of health’ (p<0.001). In the field of environment, photovoice data were categorized as ‘environment-friendly dietary lifestyle’ and ‘environmental contamination minimization’(p<0.001). In the field of consideration, photovoice data were categorized as ‘gratitude for others’, ‘joy of cooking’or ‘eating meals together’(p<0.01). In conclusion, we found that dietary education about health, environment, and consideration may affect healthy dietary lifestyle among undergraduate students. Our findings may warrant further studies to develop significantly effective dietary education for undergraduate students.
