Purpose
This study’s purpose was to identify the influence of retirement expectations and readiness on retirement anxiety among middle-aged nurses. Methods The participants were 216 middle-aged nurses working at nine locations including hospitals, long-term care hospitals, general hospitals, and tertiary hospitals in B city. Data were collected from April 25 to May 13, 2022 using self-report questionnaires and analyzed using t-tests, one-way ANOVAs, Scheffé́ tests, Pearson’s correlation coefficients, and multiple regression with SPSS/WIN 28.0. Results The mean scores for retirement expectations, retirement readiness, and retirement anxiety were 3.49±0.38, 3.21±0.59, and 2.48±0.51, respectively. Retirement anxiety was found to be significantly affected by new beginnings (β=-.31, p<.001) for retirement expectations and life design readiness (β=-.27, p=.002) and, leisure readiness (β=-.27, p<.001) for retirement readiness. These variables accounted for 33.0% the retirement anxiety among middle-aged nurses. Conclusion To reduce retirement anxiety among middle-aged nurses, it is necessary to adopt an organizational approach enhancing their perceptions and using a policy alternative to make use of older nurses' extensive knowledge and experience.
Purpose
This study aimed to identify the impact of nursing organizational culture and nursing practice environment on generational conflict in organization among hospital nurses. Methods: This study utilized a cross-sectional design. The participants consisted of 214 nurses working at two tertiary general hospitals, which were located in B city. Data were collected from January 15 to January 31, 2022, using self-report questionnaires. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA, independent t-test, Pearson's correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis using IBM/SPSS 28.0 for Windows. Results: The mean generational conflict in organization was 2.60±0.74 points on a 5-point scale. Multiple regression indicated that the factors influencing generational conflict in organization included relation-oriented nursing organizational culture (β=-.29, p<.001), hierarch-oriented nursing organizational culture (β=-.29, p<.001), hierarch-oriented nursing organizational culture (β=.17, p=.006) and clinical career, and these variables explained 23.0% of generational conflict in organization. Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that it is necessary to improve relation-oriented nursing organizational culture and avoid hierarch-oriented nursing organizational culture to decrease generational conflict in organization.

Purpose
This study was conducted to identify the influence of patient safety culture and nursing work environment on fall prevention activities among hospital nurses. Methods: The participants were 177 nurses working at eight hospitals including clinics, general hospitals, and tertiary care hospitals located in B city. Data were collected using self-report questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffé test. Pearson’s correlation coefficients, and hierarchical multiple regression with SPSS/WIN 26.0. Results: Fall prevention activities were positively correlated with nursing work environment (r=.25, p=.001) and patient safety culture (r=.49, p<.001). Fall prevention activities were found to be significantly affected by patient safety culture (β=.47, p<.001) and being a training hospital (β=.21, p=.006). Conclusion: The findings from this study suggest that patient safety culture is associated with fall prevention activities. In order to raise fall prevention activities, it is important to improve patient safety culture. Additionally, the health care organization should develop programs to raise fall prevention activities. Citations Citations to this article as recorded by
Purpose
This study was done to determine whether the Korean version of the cyberbullying scale developed for adolescents is applicable to newly graduated nurses. Methods: This scale was composed of 14 items with the one-factor structure to measure the degree of cyberbullying and 1 item with multiple responses the media used for cyberbullying. Online survey data were collected from 279 newly graduated nurses who worked in hospital. Internal consistency reliability and construct validity using confirmatory factor analysis were conducted using SPSS/WIN 26.0 and AMOS 26.0. Results: The one-factor structure was validated through confirmatory factor analysis (x 2 =360.22, df=77, Normed Fit Index (NFI)=.91, Tucker Lewis index (TLI)=.92, Comparative Fit Index (CFI)=.93, and Root Mean-Squared Error of Approximation (RMSEA)=.12). The correlation coefficient between cyberbullying and workplace bullying was .50 (p<.01), confirming the criterion-related validity. The Korean version of the cyberbullying scale showed reliable internal consistency with a Cronbach’s ⍺ for the total scale of .97. Conclusion: Findings from this study demonstrate that the Korean version of the cyberbullying scale has satisfactory construct validity and reliability to measure cyberbullying experience among newly graduated nurses. The use of this scale will be valuable for future practice and research related to cyberbullying. Citations Citations to this article as recorded by
Purpose
Ensuring patient safety is an essential professional competency that is conceptualized and developed during undergraduate nursing education. To reduce the incidence of preventable medication errors, it is critical to learn how errors are made and the importance of collaboration with healthcare workers. This study was done to develop a simulation program related to the medication process and improving patient safety in nursing students. Methods This methodological study was designed to develop a simulation program on teaching preventable medication errors and communication among nurses, doctors, pharmacists and nurse managers in the nursing management curriculum of colleges of nursing. The design included creation of two scenarios. Guideline-based scenarios were verified by nursing experts using the three-round Delphi method. Results The two scenarios using high-fidelity patient simulators or standard patients address ‘resolving medication errors related to patients’ identification and history, and reporting safety incidents’ and ‘resolving medication errors related to medication prescription and dispensing, and reporting safety incidents’. Conclusion This simulation program supports practical education for nursing students in the nursing management course and novice nurses in patient safety-related education.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of nursing organizational culture, organizational health, and job crafting on intent to stay among registered nurses. Methods: A cross sectional study design was used in this study. The participants were 210 nurses working at three hospitals in B city, South Korea. Data were collected from March 2 to 31 2018. A self-report questionnaire was used. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression analyses with the IBM/SPSS 25.0 for Window Program. Results Factors affecting intent to stay among registered nurses included relation oriented culture of nursing organization (β=.17, p=.029), organizational health (β=.16, p=.043), job crafting (β=.17, p=.031), and age(β= .25,p<.001), and these variables explained 25.0% of intent to stay (F=17.37, p<.001). Conclusion These findings show that there is a correlation between relation oriented culture of nursing organizational culture, organizational health, job crafting, and intent to stay among registered nurses. In order to increase nurses’ retention, it is important to establish a relation oriented culture in the nursing organization and to improve organizational health. Also, more attention should be paid to create positive job crafting to increase nurses’ intent to stay. Citations Citations to this article as recorded by
