Purpose
The purpose of this study was to construct and test a hypothetical model of clinical nurses’ spiritual nursing care based on the theory of planned behavior. Methods From May 1 to May 31, 2019, data of 289 nurses working at a university hospital were collected and analyzed. Results The goodness-of-fit of the final model was at a good level (TLI=.90, CFI=.91, SRMR=.06, RMSEA=.06). The intention toward spiritual nursing was directly affected by attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavior control toward spiritual nursing. Spiritual nursing care was both directly and indirectly affected by attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control, and intention toward spiritual nursing. These variables accounted for 76.6% of the intention to spiritual nursing and 44.5% of spiritual nursing care. Conclusion Clinical nurses’ spiritual nursing care can be improved by intention, attitude, subjective norm, and decreased perceived behavioral control toward spiritual nursing. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the job of nursing, create an environment for spiritual nursing, and develop and implement various education programs.

PURPOSE
The aim of this study was to determine whether job-seeking stress, career decision-making self-efficacy, self-esteem, and academic achievement had an influence on nursing students' happiness. METHODS The participants were 147 nursing students in D city. Data were collected with a structured questionnaire. The data were analyzed with SPSS/WIN 19.0 using ANOVA, t-test, Pearson correlation, and stepwise multiple regression. RESULTS Factors that had an influence on happiness included major satisfaction(highly unsatisfied beta=-.251, p=.001), average monthly family income(between four and six million won beta=.222, p=.002), career decision-making self-efficacy(beta=.198, p=.010), major satisfaction(satisfied beta=.196, p=.006), and subjective health(unhealthy beta =-.167, p=.020). These factors explained 33.5% of the variance in student happiness. CONCLUSION The results of this study reveal that career decision-making self-efficacy, self-esteem, major satisfaction, and job-seeking stress were important intrinsic factors in the happiness of nursing students. Thus, it is necessary to help these students attain more self-efficacy, self-esteem, and major satisfaction rather than focusing on academic achievement in order to increase their happiness.
