Purpose This study involved a meta-synthesis of qualitative research concerning the experiences of women with infertility and infertility treatments. Based on an analysis of emotional changes and adaptation processes, it aimed to propose an interaction model encompassing expectation, loss, and resilience and clarify the conceptual meaning of each component.
Methods Thomas and Harden’s five-step qualitative meta-synthesis methodology was employed. A total of 22 studies published between 2014 and 2024 were comprehensively analyzed and synthesized. The findings were integrated into a model representing the experiences of women undergoing infertility and infertility treatments.
Results The meta-synthesis identified six key themes: changes in identity and inner growth; strengthening resilience through the roles of spouses, family, and peers; strategies for recovery and growth; support systems amidst economic and social burdens; life in the tension of waiting and hope; and the reconfiguration of couple and family relationships. Based on these themes, a dynamic interaction model, named the Model of Psychological Changes and Resilience (PCR Model), was developed to illustrate the interrelationships among expectation, loss, and resilience. The conceptual implications of these relationships were also explicated.
Conclusion The cyclical interplay between expectation and loss among women experiencing infertility is intensified by social ideologies and cultural contexts, while resilience is strengthened through overcoming distress and finding meaning in life. Further quantitative research is necessary to validate these relationships in clinical settings by obtaining empirical data that apply this model.
Purpose This study was conducted so as to determine a hypothetical model concerning factors affecting breast cancer patients' resilience.
Methods: Data were collected via a self-administered questionnaire from 212 patients with breast cancer between July 25 and August 24, 2020. The data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 20.0 and AMOS 21.0.
Results: The model supported 7 of the 11 presented hypotheses for all participants. Test results indicated that “hope”, “uncertainty”, and “symptom experience” all directly affected participants' resilience, and that “uncertainty” also affected participants', “depression” and “hope”. “Spiritual well-being” affected participants' sense of “hope” and “symptom experience”. Of these variables, “hope” had the strongest direct influence on resilience across all participants. “Uncertainty” was found to directly and indirectly affect participants, whereas “spiritual well-being” indirectly affected the resilience of all participants. “Uncertainty” and “spiritual well-being” indirectly affected the resilience of all participants.
Conclusion: These results suggest that management strategies to enhance breast cancer patients' resilience should address patients' uncertainty, spiritual well-being, hope, and symptom experience.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to identify the moderating and mediating effects of resilience in the relationship between symptom experience and quality of life. METHODS Participants were recruited from one general hospital and one hospital specialized in hemodialysis located in Busan city. The participants included 105 patients diagnosed with chronic renal failure who had been receiving hemodialysis twice a week or more on a regular basis. Data collection was conducted from December 14, 2017, to January 15, 2018. Collected data were analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 24.0 program. RESULTS There were significant correlations between participants' symptom experience and resilience (r=−.36, p < .001), symptom experience and quality of life (r=−.50, p < .001), and resilience and quality of life (r=.67, p < .001), respectively. Resilience had a partial mediating effect (z=−3.48, p < .001) in the relationship between symptom experience and quality of life but did not have moderating effects. CONCLUSION To improve the quality of life among patients on hemodialysis, it is necessary to develop interventions that enhance resilience in addition to providing symptom relief.

PURPOSE This study was performed to identify the mediating effect of resilience in the relationship between post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and quality of life (QoL) among patients with ostomy. METHODS A crosssectional survey design was used. A convenience sample of 150 patients with ostomy was recruited from three hospitals located in Gwangju and Chonnam province in Korea. Data were collected by self-report questionnaires and included demographics as well as measures of PTSD, resilience, and QoL. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficients, independent t-test, One-way ANOVA, and linear regression using the SPSS 24.0 program. RESULTS There were significant negative relationships between PTSD and QoL (r=−.30, p < .001) and between PTSD and resilience (r=−.57, p < .001). Resilience showed a partial mediating effect (β=.39, p < .001) between PTSD and QoL (Z=−3.12, p < .001). CONCLUSION This study findings suggest the importance of reducing PTSD scores and improving resilience among persons with ostomy which will possibly increase their QoL. Nursing interventions including counseling or education to improve psychological resilience might help better manage PTSD among patients with ostomy.

PURPOSE This study aimed to identify the mediating effect of the resilience on the relationship between type D personality and compliance of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) patients. METHODS The subjects were 236 CAD patients who visited the cardiology outpatient clinics of D University Medical Center in B City in Korea. The type D personality, resilience, and compliance of subjects were measured using structured questionnaires from July to August, 2014. The mediating effect was analyzed by a multiple hierarchical regression. RESULTS The subjects with type D personality accounted for 30.9% of all study subjects. The resilience and compliance of type D subjects were significantly lower than those of non type D subjects. There was a significant correlation between resilience and compliance. The direct effect of type D personality on compliance was not significant (β=-.07, p=.243), while the indirect effect of type D personality on compliance via resilience was significant (β=.23, p<.001). CONCLUSION On the basis of above results, it can be concluded that the resilience had completely mediating effect on the relation between type D personality and compliance of CAD patients. Further studies need to be done to develop the intervention enhancing resilience of CAD patients with Type D personality.

PURPOSE This study was to develop and test the resilience scale for Korean nursing college students. METHODS The initial 82 items (7 factors) were developed through literature review and student interviews. Items were reduced to 55 items through content validity test by 5 experts and face validity tests by 20 nursing students. The preliminary Resilience Scale for Korean Nursing Students (RS_KNS) was administered to 302 nursing students of 4 universities in Chungnam. Data were analyzed using item analysis, factor analysis, Pearson correlation coefficients, and Cronbach's alpha. RESULTS Twenty-four items were selected for the final scale. Seven factors evolved from the factor analysis, which explained 61.9% of the total variance. The internal consistency, Cronbach's alpha was .84 and reliability of the subscales ranged from .60 to .77. CONCLUSION The resilience scale for Korean nursing college students demonstrated acceptable validity and reliability. It can be used to assess the resilience of nursing college students and is expected to get utilized in teaching and research.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships among health locus of control, resilience, social support, and health promoting behavior in patients with coronary artery diseases. METHODS This study utilized a descriptive correlational design using a survey method. The subjects were 165 coronary artery disease patients at the cardiology out-patient clinic of the C university hospital. Data were collected through Health Locus of Control Scale, Resilience Scale, ENRICHD Social Support Instrument, Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient and hierarchial regression. RESULTS There were significant positive bivariate correlations of health promoting behavior with internal health locus of control, doctors health locus of control, resilience and social support respectively, and correlation between resilience and social support. Among predictors, internal health locus of control (beta=.28), social support (beta=.28) and resilience (beta=.25) had statistically significant influences on health promoting behavior. CONCLUSION These results proposed that internal health locus of control, social support and resilience have important influences on health promoting behavior. Nursing interventions to enhance internal health locus of control, resilience and social support might be essential for patients with coronary artery disease in order to promote their health behaviors.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the levels of burden, family resilience and adaptation of caregivers of elderly patients with dementia, and further to identify factors influencing their adaptation. METHODS A cross-sectional descriptive study was designed. Data were collected from questionnaires distributed to 131 family caregivers of elderly patients who visited at the Centers for Dementia in Seoul during 2012~2013. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation analysis, and stepwise multiple regression. RESULTS The average age of the care giving subjects was 63.58, and 31.3% were male, and 41.2% were the spouses. Statistically significant relationships were found between burden and adaptation (r=-.38, p<.001), and between family resilience and adaptation (r=.52, p<.001), and between burden and family resilience (r=-.35, p=.001). Thirty percent of adaptation was explained by burden and family resilience. The most influencing factor to adaptation was family resilience which explained about 27% of the variance. CONCLUSION The results of the study clearly indicate that family resilience explains better than burden on adaptation of family caregivers. Thus, to develop more effective nursing intervention for family caregivers of elderly patients with dementia, it would be necessary to integrate family resilience in the programs. 27% is not that much and I wonder if we have to do more work to identify the factors that influence care giving.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the level of resilience, family support, anxiety and depression in patients with hematologic malignancy, and to determine modifiable psychosocial factors that affect their resilience. METHODS Data were collected from 104 patients undergoing curative therapy at 'S' hospital in Seoul. The data were collected from April to May, 2012. The questionnaires included Korean Version of Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, Family Support Scale and Hospital Anxiety-Depression Scale. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation and stepwise multiple regression. RESULTS Resilience had statistically significant correlation with family support (r=.43, p<.001), anxiety (r=-.49, p<.001) and depression (r=-.52, p<.001). Factors influencing resilience were depression, family support, anxiety and time since diagnosis with R-sq. value of 36%. CONCLUSION The results of the study show that family support, anxiety and depression have important influences on resilience of patients with hematologic malignancy. Thus, family support needs to be reinforced when developing and implementing nursing intervention, and nurses need to intervene to reduce anxiety and depression of patients with hematologic malignancy.
