Purpose
In this study, factors influencing the performance of person-centered care among nurses in designated COVID-19 hospitals were examined. Methods A total of 182 nurses providing care to COVID-19 patients at six public hospitals in Gyeonggi-do the designated hospital for infectious diseases participated in the study. Data were collected from February to March 2021 using a 152-question structured questionnaire, and analyzed using SPSS/WINdows software, version 25.0 by frequency and percentage, mean and standard deviation, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficients, and multiple regression. Results The factors influencing the respondents’ performance of person-centered care were organizational culture for infection control (β=.35, p<.001), empathic ability (β=.16, p=.027), and the charge nurse position (β=.14, p=.035); these explained 20.8% of their person-centered care. Conclusion It is necessary to consider strategies to improve the organizational culture for infection control and empathic ability to promote the performance of person-centered care among nurses at designated COVID-19 hospitals. It is also necessary to design a program that can facilitate the implementation of person-centered care by nurses who hold positions junior to that of the charge nurse at designated COVID-19 hospitals.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to provide the fundamental data for improving working environments for operating room nurses as well as the quality of surgical nursing.
Methods
Study participants were 95 operating room nurses with at least three months of work experience in general and tertiary hospitals in S and G provinces. Data were collected from October 2021 to November 2021 using a structured questionnaire. Results: Factors affecting the participants’ burnout were verbal violence (β=.23, p=.007), the self-perceived health status “not healthy” (β=.21, p=.009), and job satisfaction: “dissatisfied” (β=.34, p<.001) and “moderate” (β=.44, p<.001). Work-oriented nursing organizational culture (β=.26, p=.007) had a moderating effect on the relationship between verbal violence and burnout.
Conclusion
The results indicated that the verbal violence experienced by the participants affected their burnout, and work-oriented nursing organizational culture acted as a moderating variable.Therefore, a hospital’s organizational efforts to reduce verbal violence in the operating room and develop a well-balanced nursing organizational culture must be aimed at lowering nurse burnout.

PURPOSE
The aim of this study was to impact describe the perception of safety and barriers to adverse drug reactions (ADR) reporting on clinical nurses' monitoring practice for ADR.
METHODS
A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted for 270 nurses working at two major general hospitals by convenience sampling. Data were collected using self-report structured questionnaires from May to June, 2017 and analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 22.0 program.
RESULTS
The nurses' mean score of perceived safety climate was identified towards the hospital organization level (34.41±7.12), towards the work unit level (66.32±9.42), towards the individual level (7.56±1.50) and towards the ADR monitoring practice (32.68±5.42). ADR monitoring practices are positively correlated with that of perceived safety climate at the work unit level and negatively correlated with the barriers to ADR reporting both at the individual and organizational (p < .001) levels. Multiple regression analysis showed that perceived safety climate at the work unit level (β=.37), at the hospital organization level (β=−.18) and the individual barriers to ADR reporting (β=−.42) were found to be predictors of ADR monitoring practice (Adj R2=.36, F=16.38, p < .001).
CONCLUSION
These findings suggest that an effective educational program needs to be developed to assist the clinical nurses' ADR monitoring practice by improving the nurses' perception of safety climate at the work unit level and reducing the barriers to ADR reporting.

PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing workplace bullying among Korean hospital nurses.
METHODS
Subjects in this study included 178 hospital nurses who attended two nationwide nursing educational conferences in 2013. The data was collected using self-report questionnaires which were used to identify the subjects' characteristics, self-esteem, perception of nursing organizational culture, and workplace bullying experience.
RESULTS
The results showed that 19.1% of study subjects reported being victims of workplace bullying and mostly experienced person-related and work-related bullying. Multiple regression analysis was done to identify factors affecting workplace bullying. The perception of relation-oriented culture, task-oriented culture and self-esteem turned out to be variables that explained nurses' workplace bullying, and these factors accounted for 32.0% of the variance.
CONCLUSION
The findings suggest that nurses experience more workplace bullying in task-oriented cultures. However, they experience less bullying and report higher self-esteem and awareness in relation-oriented cultures. Interventions focused on the characteristics of the organization need to be developed to prevent workplace bullying in hospital nurses.

PURPOSE
The objective of this study was to identify the moderating and mediating effects of transformational-leadership in the relationship between medication error management climate and error reporting intention.
METHODS
Participants in this study were 118 nurses from 11 hospitals in Korea. The scales of medication error management climate, transformational-leadership and error reporting intention of nurses were used in this study. Descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, partial Pearson correlation coefficient, and stepwise multiple regression were used for data analysis.
RESULTS
Higher transformational leadership group members had higher error management climate (t=3.88~4.64, p<.001) and higher intention to error reporting (t=2.49, p=.014). There were significant positive correlations between subcategories of medication error management climate and transformational leadership (r=.37~.51, p<.001). But error reporting intention was related to the transformational leadership (r=.28 p=.002), two subcategories such as 'learn from error' (r=.26, p=.004) and 'medication error competence' (r=.25, p=.008) of medication error management climate. Transformational-leadership was a moderator and a mediator between medication error management climate and error reporting intention.
CONCLUSION
Based on the results of this study, transformational-leadership promotion training program to construct medication error management climate and to improve error reporting intention should be needed.

PURPOSE
This study examined relationships among stress, stress coping strategies, and somatization in mothers-in-law from multi-cultural families in a rural area.
METHODS
Elderly mothers-in-law (n=227) living with foreign daughters-in-law completed a self-reporting questionnaire. Data were collected from April to August 2009. Questions related to stress (Visual Analog Scale, VAS), coping strategies (Coping Strategy Scale) for stress, and somatization (Symptom Check List 90, Revised). SPSS/WIN 12.0 program was used for descriptive analysis, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and multiple regression analyses.
RESULTS
Subjects had a moderate level of stress (5.03). There were significant differences in stress level according to age, educational level, religion, chronic disease, health status, number of children, agreement of an international marriage of her sons, satisfaction in living with a foreign daughter-in-law, and family conflict. Stress showed a significant positive correlation with offensive coping strategy, passive strategy, and somatization. Stress, offensive coping strategy, and passive coping strategy affected the level of somatization.
CONCLUSION
In a family situation involving co-habitation of mother- and foreign daughter-in-law, increased stress experienced by the mother-in-law can lead to increased offensive and passive coping strategies, and increased somatization. More effective means of stress reduction are needed for mothers-in-law from multi-cultural families.

PURPOSE
Increasing numbers of Koreans have immigrated to the United States since the late 1960s. The first generation of Korean immigrants or their parents become old and institutionalized in American nursing home setting. Although the Korean elders would experience many cultural differences in the nursing home, no study to date has investigated their everyday lives on how they live through their later lives within a different cultural environment from their own.
METHODS
Using ethnographic methodology, the purpose of this paper was to illustrate Korean residents' experiences and daily lives in a nursing home located in an east coastal city in the U.S. Participant observation, filed notes, semi-structured interviews were utilized by means of data collection. Eighteen Korean residents were observed, and five of them and two nurses participated in informal qualitative interviews.
RESULTS
The overriding theme from the findings is "thrown in a different world." Three sub-themes include "constant struggles in making themselves understood", "dealing with culturally inappropriate nursing care," and "maintaining their own ways of life".
CONCLUSIONS
The discovered themes reflect culturally isolated lives of the participants and open a venue for designing a culturally congruent nursing care for Korean elders living in the U.S. nursing homes.
