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 The aim of this study was to identify the effects of stigma, social support, and resilience on post-traumatic growth in patients with stroke and to provide foundational data for developing nursing interventions that can effectively promote post-traumatic growth in this population.
Methods This cross-sectional study employed a questionnaire-based survey. The participants were 150 patients who attended the neurology outpatient clinic three months after a stroke diagnosis. Data were collected between February and April 2024 using a structured self-report questionnaire. Analyses included descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, inferential statistics(independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, and Scheffé's test), and hierarchical multiple regression using SPSS/WIN 27.0.
Results The mean post-traumatic growth score was 2.52±1.05 out of 5. Significant factors affecting post-traumatic growth were age, education, religion, the presence of a housemate, income, time since stroke onset, stroke type, and stroke recurrence. Post-traumatic growth was positively correlated with social support (r=.44, p<.001) and resilience (r=.53, p<.001), but not significantly correlated with stigma. Regression analysis identified resilience (β=.37, p<.001), religion (β=.29, p<.001), and stroke type (β=.23, p=.033) as significant predictors, explaining 44.2% of the variance in post-traumatic growth (F=9.45, p<.001).
Conclusion Developing and implementing nursing interventions to increase resilience may be crucial for promoting post-traumatic growth in patients with stroke. Further research is needed to design and evaluate these interventions.
Purpose This study identified the mediating effect of resilience on the relationship between job stress and the professional quality of life of hospice and palliative care nurses. Methods The participants included 136 hospice and palliative care nurses from 13 inpatient hospice and palliative care wards at a tertiary hospital in a metropolitan city in South Korea. Data were collected from February 2022 to March 2022. Hayes' PROCESS macro 3.5 was used to test the significance of the parameter's indirect effects. Professional quality of life was divided into three subdomains: compassion satisfaction, secondary traumatic stress, and burnout. Results As a mediator, resilience had both direct and indirect effects on the relationship between job stress and the compassion satisfaction of hospice and palliative care nurses. Furthermore, there were both direct and indirect effects on the relationship between job stress and secondary traumatic stress. Finally, although there was no direct effect on the relationship between job stress and burnout, there was an indirect mediating effect. Conclusion This study confirmed the direct effect of compassion satisfaction on job stress and the professional quality of life of hospice and palliative care nurses, as well as the mediating effect of resilience on job stress and burnout. To improve the professional quality of life of hospice and palliative care nurses, it is necessary to develop and apply programs that enhance resilience in order to promote its mediating effects on compassion satisfaction and burnout.
Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the level of resilience in multiple myeloma patients and to identify the impact of symptom experience, cancer coping, and social support on resilience.
Methods: Data were collected from January 2022 to May 2022 using self-report structured questionnaires administered to 162 outpatients who were undergoing chemotherapy or follow-up care after multiple myeloma treatment. The measured variables included symptom experience, cancer coping, social support, and resilience. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 25 for descriptive statistics, the independent t-test, one-way analysis of variance, the Scheffé test, Pearson correlation coefficients, and hierarchical regression analysis.
Results: The mean resilience score of the participants was 66 out of 100 points. The levels of resilience were significantly higher in patients who had a job, recognized the importance of religion, and had a good economic status. Significantly higher levels of resilience were also observed in patients with lower physical performance status, fewer symptom experiences, more positive cancer coping, and higher support from healthcare staff.
Conclusion: Monitoring the symptom experience and physical performance ability of patients with multiple myeloma is important for enhancing their resilience. Positive coping strategies need to be developed and additional support from nurses should be provided to strengthen the personal resilience of patients with multiple myeloma.
Purpose This study aims to confirm the influence of type D personality and health literacy on resilience of patients hospitalized for Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs), and provide basic information for improving resilience as a post-discharge strategy to promote self-care among patients with chronic diseases.
Methods A questionnaire-based survey was carried out in this cross-sectional study. The subjects were 142 patients who were being treated at a tertiary general hospital for CVDs such as coronary artery disease, arrhythmia, and heart failure. Data were collected from July to October 2022 using a structured questionnaire, and then analyzed using the SPSS program version 26.0.
Results 75.3% of the study subjects (n=107) had type D personalities, and the average health literacy and resilience scores were 48.96±9.13 points and 68.27±13.02 points, respectively, indicating relatively low grades. Following a hierarchical regression analysis, low monthly income (β=-.62, p<.001), current smokers (β=-.23, p=.010), patients with type D personality (β=-.24, p=.001), and patients with low health literacy (β=.27, p<.001) were identified as significant predictors of resilience (Adjusted R2=.57, F=14.32, p<.001).
Conclusion In order to increase the resilience of patients hospitalized for CVD, it is necessary to identify and take into account smokers with low socioeconomic status, poor health literacy, and type D personality. We advise doing a follow-up study to ascertain if the resilience of patients hospitalized for CVD influences post-discharge self-care and clinical outcomes.
Purpose This study aimed to identify the relationship among post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), resilience, and retention intention in nurses who had experienced a traumatic event during hospital work.
Methods A structured questionnaire, was administered online from September 10 to September 22, 2021 to 198 nurses who had experienced a traumatic event during work at a university hospital in G metropolitan city. Data were analyzed using three-step mediated regression analysis.
Results Of the total participants, 70.7% had a high risk of PTSD. PTSD (β=-.20, p=.002) and resilience (β=.47, p<.001) had a direct effect on retention intention, and the explanatory power was 27.0%. However, the mediating effect of resilience on the relationship between PTSD and retention intention was not supported, which indicates that the relationship between post-traumatic stress and resilience was not significant (β=-.09, p=.232).
Conclusion Although there was no mediating effect of resilience, PTSD and resilience are considered to be important in order to improve nurses’ retention intention. It is needed to develop strategies to prevent the occurrence of traumatic events and to formulate policies and conduct programs for stress symptom management, aimed at increasing nurses’ resilience.
Purpose This study aimed to confirm the relationship between supportive care needs and resilience of female genital cancer patients, and to investigate the mediating effect of resilience in the relationship between supportive care needs and quality of life. Methods This study was conducted with 105 outpatients and inpatients who were receiving treatment for female genital cancer at K University Hospital in B City. Data were collected from July 22, 2021 to August 17, 2021 and analyzed by using the SPSS/WIN 23.0 program. The correlation between the patients’ supportive care needs, resilience, and quality of life was analyzed by Pearson's correlation coefficients, and SPSS Process Macro was used for the significance of parameter indirect effects. Results The quality of life of female genital cancer patients showed a significant negative correlation with supportive care needs (r=-.68, p<.001), and a significant positive correlation with resilience (r=.53, p<.001). Moreover, resilience partially mediated the relationship between supportive care needs and quality of life (95% CI -0.009~-0.032). Conclusion Based on the results of this study, improving the resilience of female genital cancer patients may act as an additional coping strategy to reduce supportive care needs and establish an enhanced quality of life.

Purpose This study aimed to evaluate distress, family resilience, and Quality of Life (QoL) among family caregivers of cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy and explore whether family resilience moderates the association between distress and QoL. Methods This is a cross-sectional study. One hundred seventeen family caregivers of cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy were recruited through the oncology outpatient clinic and two oncology wards at a tertiary university hospital. The participants completed self-reported questionnaires, including the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Family Resilience Scale-Cancer, and Caregivers’ Quality of Life Index-Cancer. Descriptive statistics, independent t-tests, one-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), and hierarchical regression analysis were used for statistical analysis. Results The mean distress score was 15.31±6.91, the mean family resilience score was 112.71±14.11, and the mean QoL score was 71.19±18.90. After controlling for potential covariates, distress was found to be negatively associated with QoL (β=-.45, p<.001), whereas family resilience was positively associated with QoL (β=.49, p<.001), explaining 62.8% of the variance. However, family resilience did not moderate the association between distress and QoL in this study. Conclusion Distress and family resilience are crucial factors associated with QoL in the caregivers of cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. This finding indicates that oncology nurses should develop interventions to relieve distress and enhance family resilience to improve family caregivers’ QoL. Further studies are required to confirm the moderating role of family resilience.

Purpose This study aimed to construct and test a hypothetical model which explains the psychosocial adjustment of breast cancer survivors using the family resilience model suggested by McCubbin and McCubbin. Methods The study participants were 242 breast cancer survivors who had finished active treatments within the past five years. Data were collected from September to October 2017 from an offline breast cancer self-help group survey and an online breast cancer support group. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 22.0 and AMOS version 23.0. Results The model fit indices for the modified hypothetical model were suitable for the recommended level: x2 =223.80 (df=88, p<.001), x2 /df=2.54, RMR=.04, GFI=.90, IFI=.93, CFI=.93, and RMSEA=.08. Symptoms and posttraumatic growth directly affected psychosocial adjustment. Symptoms were found to be the most influential factors in the psychosocial adjustment. All three family resilience factors-family hardiness, problem-solving communication, and problem-solving coping-directly affected posttraumatic growth and indirectly affected psychosocial adjustment through posttraumatic growth. These variables explained 81.2% of breast cancer survivors’ psychosocial adjustment. Conclusion Health care professionals need to continue to provide interventions for symptom relief and support to improve the psychosocial adjustment of breast cancer survivors. Additionally, practical nursing interventions should be prepared for individuals and families of breast cancer survivors to promote recovery and reinforce family resilience. This will ultimately improve the quality of life for breast cancer survivors and their families.

Purpose To identify factors associated with Quality of Life (QOL) in disaster female victims. Methods A descriptive cross-sectional design used secondary data from the 2018 long-term survey on the change of life of disaster victims conducted by the National Disaster Management Research Institute (NDMI). The participants were 1,267 female victims over the age of 20 who completed a survey including QOL, resilience, perceived health status, depression, anxiety, Post-Traumatic Stress (PTS), social adaptation, and social support. Descriptive statistics, chi-square-test, independent t-test, and a decision tree were used for data analysis. Results The decision tree identified 8 final nodes predicting QOL of disaster female victims. Resilience was associated with quality of life (△p<.001, F=115.14). The mean QOL was 2.81 with predicted rate of 55.7% in the Low Resilience Group (LRG) and 3.24 with predicted rate of 44.3% in the High Resilience Group (HRG). The highest QOL group in LRG was Node 9 with perceived health status of more than 3 and low depression (mean=3.17), while the lowest QOL group was Node 3 with perceived health status of less than 2 (mean=2.54). The highest QOL group in HRG was Node 8 with social support of more than 3.92 (mean=3.57), while the lowest group was Node 12 with high anxiety (mean=2.81). Conclusion Factors predicting the QOL of disaster victims differed between HRG and LRG. In order to improve QOL of disaster victims, customized interventions according to the level of resilience are needed.

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 was to investigate family support and medical staff support and their mediating effects in the relationship between self-efficacy and resilience in patients with colorectal cancer with stoma.
Methods: The participants were 170 patients with colorectal cancer who were hospitalized or receiving treatment for colorectal anus surgery in general hospitals located in B, D, and I cities. Data were collected from July 1 to October 25, 2019 through a structured questionnaire. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation coefficient, multiple linear regression analysis, and the bootstrapping method with SPSS/WIN 25.0 and the PROCESS macro program.
Results: The mean score for resilience was 2.70±0.62 (range 0~4). Resilience was significantly associated with self-efficacy (r=.59, p<.001), family support (r=.38, p<.001), and medical staff support (r=.37, p<.001). Using Baron and Kenny's approach and PROCESS macro model 4, resilience was found to be affected by self-efficacy (β=.53, p<.001). Further, family support (β=.25, p<.001) and medical staff support (β=.39, p<.001) were affected by self-efficacy. The partial mediating effects of family support (β=.25, p<.001, 95% confidence interval 0.01~0.12) and medical staff support(β=.15, p=.022, 95% confidence interval 0.01~0.16) in the impact of self-efficacy on resilience were confirmed.
Conclusion: The impact of self-efficacy on resilience was mediated by family support and medical staff support in patients with colorectal cancer with stoma. The results suggest that family and medical staff support need to be considered in developing nursing interventions to improve self-efficacy and resilience in these patients.
Purpose This study was conducted to determine a hypothetical model for the factors affecting uterine cancer patients’ health-related quality of life. Methods Data were collected from 409 patients with cervical cancer or endometrial cancer, between March 16 and May 15, 2015, using a self-administered questionnaire . The data were analyzed using SPSS v18 and AMOS v21. Results The model supported 14 of the 19 hypotheses for all participants. The results indicated that resilience, marital intimacy, social support, and perceived health status directly affected participants’ quality of life, while sexual function indirectly affected participants’ quality of life. Of these variables, perceived health status had the strongest direct effect on participants’ quality of life. Social support and sexual function were found to directly affect perceived health status. Somatic symptoms were found to directly affect sexual function, and resilience and marital intimacy in turn were found to directly affect somatic symptoms. Conclusion These results suggest that management strategies to enhance uterine cancer patients’ quality of life should address patients’ perceived health status, social support, sexual function, and marital intimacy.

PURPOSE This study aimed to identify the factors affecting the quality of life of patients with radical prostatectomy. METHODS Participants included 114 patients with radical prostatectomy in Pusan National University Hospital in Busan, Korea. Data were collected from May to July 2018, using a structured questionnaire measuring quality of life, erectile dysfunction, lower urinary tract symptoms, appraisal of uncertainty, resilience, educational needs for sexual health, and marital intimacy. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, an independent t-test, a one-way analysis of variance, and hierarchical multiple regression. RESULTS The statistically significant regression model explained about 77% of the variance in quality of life. Appraisal of uncertainty as an opportunity, appraisal of uncertainty as a danger, and resilience were identified as factors influencing the participants' quality of life. CONCLUSION In order to improve the quality of life of patients with radical prostatectomy, it is necessary to reduce uncertainty through providing practical information on uncertain situations, and the programs should be applied that can lower the danger aspect of uncertainty, increase the opportunity factor of uncertainty, and increase the resilience of the patient himself.

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 The purpose of this study was to investigate resilience and its mediating effect on the association between symptom distress and depression among recurrent gynecologic cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. METHODS A purposive sample of 113 patients diagnosed with recurrent gynecologic cancer was recruited. A cross-sectional survey design was used. The data were collected through a structured questionnaire from September to November 2014. RESULTS There was a positive correlation between symptom distress and depression. Negative correlational relationships were found between symptom distress and resilience and between resilience and depression. Resilience showed a partial mediating effect between symptom distress and depression (Z=2.34, p=.019). CONCLUSION The results suggest that the negative effects of symptom distress on depression can be reduced by improving the resilience. Further, it is necessary to explore the multidimensional constructs of resilience and develop intervention programs that can improve the resilience among recurrent gynecologic cancer patients.

PURPOSE The purposes of this study were to examine the relationships between resilience, depression, and self-care competence and identify factors associated with self-care competence in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS This study was a descriptive research. Structured questionnaire on patients' sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, resilience, depression, and self-care competence was used for survey with a convenience sample of 152 patients with diabetes mellitus. Data were collected from July to December 2016. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression with SPSS/WIN 21.0 program. RESULTS The mean scores on resilience, depression, and self-care competence were 2.86±0.42, 18.11±10.05, and 4.27±0.78, respectively. Self-care competence showed a statistically significant positive correlation with resilience (r=.47, p < .001), and negative correlation with depression (r=−.29, p < .001). Resilience showed a negative correlation with depression (r=−.53, p < .001). Resilience (β=.38, p < .001) was significantly associated with factors of self-care competence in patients with diabetes mellitus. CONCLUSION The results of the study indicate that factor influencing self-care competence was resilience in patients with diabetes mellitus. Therefore, nursing intervention programs for increasing the self-care competence should include regular assessments and strategies for improving resilience in patients with diabetes mellitus. It is recommended that the studies should be performed to confirm the relationship between resilience and self-care competence by using resilience instrument developed for adults.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to identify the factors influencing resilience of patients with stroke. METHODS A cross-sectional descriptive research design was used. The subjects of this study were 136 hospitalized patients with stroke in Dankook university hospital in Cheonan, Korea. Data were collected from August 2016 to March 2017 using a structured questionnaire including patient's characteristics, depression, uncertainty, social support, self-efficacy, and resilience. Data were analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 21.0 program for descriptive statistics, using independent t-test, one way analysis of variance, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression. RESULTS Resilience had a statistically significant relationship with education (t=−2.17, p=.032), duration of diagnosis (F=4.09, p=.019), and mobility (F=4.44, p=.014). Further, depression (r=−.30, p < .001), self-efficacy (r=.44, p < .001), and social support (r=.37, p < .001) were significantly correlated with resilience. In the multiple regression analysis, self-efficacy and social support were statistically significant factors that explained 30.3% of variance of resilience in hospitalized patients with stroke. Depression and uncertainty were not found to be significant. CONCLUSION The results of the study indicate that factors influencing resilience are self-efficacy and social support. Therefore, nursing intervention programs for increasing the resilience should include strategies for improving self-efficacy and social support for hospitalized patients with stroke.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the health literacy and self-care activities of elderly diabetes patients and identify the effects of mediation of resilience in the relationship between them. METHODS A structured self-report questionnaire measuring health literacy, resilience and self-care activities was completed by 145 elderly people aged 65 years or older, who were diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus at the Pusan National University hospital in Busan city, and who visited the outpatient clinic for endocrinology. Data collection was conducted from February 10, 2017 to March 31, 2017, and the collected data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 23.0 program. RESULTS The subjects' health literacy and resilience (r=.19, p=.023), health literacy and self-care activities (r=.26, p=.001), resilience and self-care activities (r=.39, p < .001) were significantly correlated. Resilience completely mediated in the relationship between health literacy and self-care activities (z=2.37, p=.017). CONCLUSION Resilience plays a mediating role in the association among health literacy and self-care activities. It is necessary to develop a variety of intervention programs that can improve resilience in increasing self-care activities.

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 The purpose of this study was to investigate patients’ perceived postoperative recovery over time and to identify the influences of resilience and social support on postoperative recovery among patients with gastrointestinal cancer. METHODS 101 patients with GI cancer who underwent surgery at S tertiary hospital were recruited from October 29th, 2015 to January 19th, 2016. Data was collected 3 times at postoperative day (POD)3, and POD5 in the hospital and at POD14 at home. Statistical analyses used were descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, ANCOVA, correlation, and linear mixed model. RESULTS The patients' perceived postoperative recovery(reverse cording) decreased at home rather than time during hospital stay (POD3: 16.70, POD5: 15.74, POD14: 17.08). Postoperative recovery at POD5 showed negative correlation with resilience (r=−.36, p=.002). Postoperative recovery scores at POD14 were negatively correlated with resilience (r=−.60, p < .001) and social support (r=−.34, p=.019). There was a positive correlation (r=−.36, p=.002) between resilience and social support. Resilience was a significant associated factor with postoperative recovery over time (β=−0.29, p=.001). CONCLUSION Since the degree of postoperative recovery after hospital discharge was perceived lower than that of during hospital stay, nursing interventions such as nurse-led telephone follow-up programs should be applied during the transition period.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the influencing factors on Posttraumatic Growth(PTG) in patients with colorectal cancer. METHODS Eighty patients who were diagnosed with colorectal cancer at least twelve months ago were recruited from the oncology outpatient clinic of university hospital in Y city. Participants completed four survey questionnaires: Korean versions of PTG Index, Korean versions of Cancer Coping Questionnaire, Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, and a Resilience Scale. The data were analyzed by ANOVA, Pearson-correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis. RESULTS The mean score of PTG in these patients was 51.16 indicating relatively high growth. Posttraumatic Growth had significant correlations with coping, social support, and resiliency. In addition to the variables of age and education that are found to be associated with the PTG, the PTG was significantly influenced by resilience, coping, and importance of religion. Forty-nine percent of the variations in the PTG were explained by these three variables. CONCLUSION The identified factors influencing colorectal cancer related to PTG could be considered in developing nursing interventions to promote positive psychological changes in response to adversity which colorectal cancer survivors might experience.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Family Resilience Reinforcement Program (FRRP) for family caregivers of the elderly with dementia on the family resilience, caregiver burden, family adaptation, perceived health status and depression. METHODS FRRP was implemented for 60 minutes each time, once a week, for 8 weeks. According to 3 factors of Walsh's Family resilience theory, FRRP was organized and specified as redefining 'belief system' in 1 to 2 sessions, figuring out one's own 'organizational pattern' in 3 to 5 sessions, enhancing 'communication process' in 6 to 8 sessions. A total of 46 family caregivers were assigned into either the experimental group with FRRP or the control group. Data were collected from February 18 to April 12, 2013 at the dementia support centers, and the data of 36 participants were finally analyzed. RESULTS The experimental group reported statistically significant differences in family resilience (p=.002), caregiver burden (p=.012), family adaptation (p<.001), and perceived health status (p=.002) compared to those in the control group. No significant difference was found between the two groups in depression. CONCLUSION In the light of these results, FRRP is considered to decrease caregiver burden and to influence family resilience, family adaptation and perceived health status positively. The developed FRRP is considered to be an efficient nursing intervention for strengthening family resilience of the given population. It warrants future research expanding the range of target population to those caregivers of the patients with other chronic conditions.

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 aimed to clarify the concept of ego-resiliency in the context of nursing and to propose a definition of ego-resiliency. METHODS Rodgers' evolutionary approach to concept analysis was used to identify common attributes, antecedents, and consequences of the term ego-resiliency. A literature search of the RISS, NDSL, NAL, CINAHL, PubMed, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, and Scopus databases from 1980 to 2014 was conducted, using the key words of ego-resiliency, ego-resilience, and ego-resilient. Thirty-four relevant articles and one book were finally selected and throughly reviewed. RESULTS The results of the concept analysis concluded that ego-resiliency was a individualized, integrated, and coping resource and capacity leading personal adaptive capacity including physical, psychological, social well being in various adversity and challenge of life. CONCLUSION The findings of this study warranted nursing research on a development of nursing intervention related with ego-resiliency as a pivotal personal characteristic. By doing so, better understanding of human and health within the context of nursing could be achieved.

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 examine the levels of resilience, depression, and self-esteem of hemodialysis(HD) patients, and to find out the factors influencing resilience. METHODS The subjects of this descriptive correlational study was 83 outpatients in H hospital in Seoul, Korea, who receive hemodialysis regularly. Data was analyzed by SPSS/WIN 18.0 program. RESULTS The resilience of HD patients were statistically different by gender, job, economical state, most supportive person, and recent condition. Self-esteem had positive correlation, while depression had moderate negative correlation with the resilience of HD patients. In regression analysis, depression had significant explanation power, which accounted for 25.4% of the resilience. CONCLUSION The results of this study provide basic data for developing a resilience promoting program. Since health-related conditions of HD patients affect their levels of resilience, individualized assessment and management of complications are necessary. Also, as the resilience is related to family support, activating support groups for HD patients and their spouses would be helpful to promote their resilience.

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.
