Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate selected constructs of the Transtheoretical Model (TTM) of behavior change regarding smoking behavior among Asian students in Korea. Methods: A convenience sample of 240 Chinese and Vietnamese smokers studying in colleges, graduate schools, and language programs across the country completed the Chinese and Vietnamese versions of the short form questionnaire from October 2020 to January 2021, through an online survey. The collected data were analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 25.0 program using descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA, independent t-test, and logistic regression. Results: Analyses showed that 72.1% of participants were in contemplation and preparation stage. There were significant differences in the process of change, decisional balance, and self-efficacy depending on the stages of change in smoking cessation. Factors influencing smoking cessation intention were consciousness raising (Odds Radio [OR]=1.22, 95% Confidence Interval [CI]=1.00~1.15, p=.047), self-reevaluation (OR=1.40, 95% CI=1.15~1.70, p=.001), cons of smoking (OR=1.18, 95% CI=1.00~1.39, p=.045), and self-efficacy (OR=1.08, 95% CI=1.00~1.15, p=039). Conclusion: The results provide support on the advantages of including the concepts of consciousness raising, self-reevaluation, negative aspects of smoking (cons), and self-efficacy in intervention program development for smoking cessation.

Purpose: This descriptive phenomenological study explored the lived experiences of patients recovering from Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID-19). Methods: Using a purposive sampling method, participants were recruited from the Korean Psychological Association's Mental Health and Wellness Center in G city, South Korea, from May 5 to December 30, 2020. The interviews were analyzed using Colaizzi's seven-step method. Data saturation was reached after interviewing 14 participants. Results: The experiences of patients recovering from COVID-19 were clustered into 4 main themes and 10 subthemes:, namely, the patients' 1) stigmatization, leading to anxiety, fatigue, and concern about neighbors;2) negative emotions: anger and helplessness;3) coping strategies under pressure: increased gratitude, self-reflection, and self-efficacy;and 4) ways of overcoming internalized stigma: personal growth and hope for the future. Discussion: The results suggest that the positive and negative emotions of patients recovering from COVID-19 are interwoven and coexist against the background of the pandemic. Improvement of social networks, development of coping skills, and psychological growth play an important role in alleviating the psychological burden of recovering patients.

Purpose: This study identified factors related to bowel cleanliness of colonoscopy examinees. Methods: From December 2, 2020 to January 21, 2021, we surveyed 152 participants who underwent colonoscopy at a university hospital at B City. The questionnaires included participants characteristics, social cognitive determinants (knowledge on bowel preparation, severity and susceptibility for colon cancer as perceived threat, self-efficacy, and social support), and compliance with bowel preparation. For data analysis, SPSS/WIN 21.0 and AMOS 22.0 statistical programs were used. Descriptive statistics, an independent t-test, one way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and path analysis were utilized. Results: Participants’ knowledge level on bowel preparation was 8.49±1.57; severity, 18.49±4.43; susceptibility, 12.55±4.10; self-efficacy, 41.92±9.28; social support, 24.90±4.84; compliance with bowel preparation, 9.26±1.81; and degree of bowel cleanliness, 6.05±1.71. Factors influencing the compliance with bowel preparation included self-efficacy (β=.27, p=.007), knowledge on bowel preparation (β=.23, p=.005), marital status (β=.19, p=.048), social support (β=.17, p=.030), and age (β=-.16, p=.007). The factor directly affecting bowel cleanliness was compliance with bowel preparation (β=.17, p=.043). Indirectly affecting factors were self-efficacy (β=.05 p=.021), knowledge on bowel preparation (β=.04, p=.022), social support (β=.03, p=.026), marital status (β=.03, p=.034), and age (β=-.03, p=.018). Conclusion: Bowel cleanliness of colonoscopy examinees can be improved by enhancing compliance with bowel preparation. Future studies should examine the effects of strategies that concern self-efficacy, knowledge on bowel preparation, social support, marital status and age on compliance with bowel preparation.

Purpose: This concept analysis was performed to clarify “ stress in hemodialysis patients ” . Methods: Walker and Avant ’ s methodology guided the analysis. In addition, the concept was compared with stress from other perspectives. Results: Stress in hemodialysis patients was defined in terms of “ Physical ” , “ Psychological ” , “ Social ‧ Economic ” , and “ Behavioral ” dimensions. Stress in hemodialysis patients is preceded by kidney failure, fear of treatment, and uncertainty about prognosis, after which there is often negative coping such as non-compliance with treatment, or positive coping such as maintaining the status quo, relying on medical staff, conforming to treatment, and self-management. Conclusion: It is necessary to develop a stress intervention program suitable for hemodialysis patients and a tool to identify the concept of stress in hemodialysis patients suitable for domestic situations, as well as conduct further research to identify its influencing factors.

Purpose: This study aimed to explore the clinical practice experience of nursing students during the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Methods: We used the qualitative content analysis steps presented by Graneheim and Lundman. The participants were 11 nursing students from two universities. We collected data by iterative work through in-depth interviews and observations and analyzed it using content analysis and dialogue between the authors to enhance interpretation. Results: Four themes emerged from the participants' clinical practice experiences during the pandemic: increased uncertainty in clinical practice and daily life, reduced opportunities for practice experiences and networking, differences in the meaning of clinical practice, and new implications of clinical practice. Conclusion: Participants were experiencing clinical practice, including themselves and the surrounding world, under the strong influence of the COVID-19. Therefore, the development of practice guidelines that can be communicated quickly between institutions, students, and universities and cope flexibly with the pandemic alarm levels will reduce uncertainty in clinical practice and minimize changes in activities and networking. Additionally, the nurses' professional intuition should be improved by expanding the awareness of nurse roles in clinical practice during the COVID-19 pandemic.
