Purpose
This study investigated the mediating effect of patient participation culture in the relationship between ethical leadership and performance in patient-engaged nursing services. Methods This study employed a cross-sectional descriptive online survey design. The sample comprised 104 nurses from small- and middle-sized Korean hospitals. Data were collected between May 10 and September 10, 2019 using the Smart Patient Engagement Assessment Checklist, Korean versions of the Patient Participation Culture Tool for healthcare workers, the Ethical Leadership Scale, and a questionnaire about nurses' demographic and work characteristics. A mediation analysis was conducted using multiple regression and a simple model applying the PROCESS macro using SPSS/WINdows software version 26.0. Results Ethical leadership directly affected (c'=0.28, p<.001) performance in patient-engaged nursing services. Patient participation culture partially mediated the relationship between ethical leadership and performance in patient-engaged nursing services (a ․ b=0.51×0.20=0.10, 95% Boot CI=0.18~0.20). Conclusion Optimizing the patient participation culture and adherence to ethical leadership among hospital administrators and managers can improve nurses' performance in patient-engaged nursing services. Nurse managers' ethical leadership should be strengthened, and patient participation culture should be encouraged at policy levels through systematic nurse education on patient safety and engagement to enhance performance-engaged nursing services.

Purpose
This study was conducted to test a structural model for patient safety culture of clinical nurses focusing on organizational policy and interpersonal factors. Methods: A descriptive structural equation model design was used. Participates in this study were 385 clinical nurses. The variables of safety management system, authentic leadership, team effectiveness, and patient safety culture were measured to test the hypothetical model. SPSS 25.0 and AMOS 21.0 were used to analyze descriptive statistics and path analysis. Results: The final model fit satisfied goodness-of-fit and all path were significant. Authentic leadership (β=.54, p=<.001) was reported as the most influencing factor, followed by team effectiveness (β=.24, p<.001) and safety management system (β=.21, p<.001). Safety management system (β=.38, p=.002) and authentic leadership (β=.12, p=.002) had indirect effects on patient safety culture as well. Conclusion: The findings of this study show the importance of authentic leadership, team effectiveness, and safety management system to develop patient safety culture. The health care organization should develop the programs to increase these influencing factors. Citations Citations to this article as recorded by
PURPOSE
This study aimed to identify research trends in the Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing Administration from 2013 to 2015. METHODS For this study, 171 articles were analyzed. Research designs, participants, research settings, sampling, and data analyses methods were reviewed using established analysis criteria. Keyword centrality and clusters were generated by keyword network analysis. RESULTS Most of studies used quantitative methods (82.5%), and sampling mainly focused on nurses (68.8%). The most commonly used data analyses methods were t-test, ANOVA, correlation, and regression. The most central keywords were turnover and empowerment. Network analysis generated four network groups: 1) burnout; 2) turnover; 3) happiness; and 4) nursing professionalism. CONCLUSION The results of this study identify current trends and interests in Korean nursing administration research. The findings from this study suggest that future studies include a variety of research methods and maintain appropriate research ethics. Citations Citations to this article as recorded by
PURPOSE
This study was designed to develop quality outcome indicators for nursing homes and community-based home care that would contribute to an appropriate evaluation and improvement of quality of long term care in Korea. METHODS The preliminary quality indicators of long term care were developed from a literature review and clinical expert panel. A content validity testing was done using a panel of experts who were selected from academic and clinical field of long-term care. The final quality indicators were confirmed after application in four nursing homes and four home care agencies to test clinical validity. RESULTS The preliminary quality indicators consisted of 3 domains and 19 indicators. The final quality indicators were composed of 4 domains and 17 indicators. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated the feasibility of outcome quality indicators in long term care. These quality indicators can be effectively used to evaluate the quality of nursing home and home care and to improve the quality of care in the Korean long-term care system.

PURPOSE
Nursing home quality indicators have been focused widely on result outcomes, not for the environment in that quality of service are delivered. This study aimed to examine structural factors influencing quality management activities in nursing homes. METHOD Sample was 170 nursing homes responded to the survey questionnaire which was distributed to the 543 nursing homes nation-wide. Data were collected on structural characteristics, types of services, and quality management activities. Data were analyzed with the descriptive statistics, Pearson correlations, and multiple regression. RESULT Most of the nursing homes were operated as free of charge by the social welfare ownership. Average number of residents was 52.1 with severe and mild dementia and bedridden status. In terms of quality management activities, 34% of the sample had CQI committee that focused their activities on services delivery process, performance appraisal, record keeping regularly. 30.6% of quality management activities were accounted for by the number of residents with dementia, the ratio of RN to residents, rehabilitation services, and social wefare services in nursing homes. CONCLUSION We recommend that more comprehensive quality management activities should be developed as process quality indicators in conjunction with the outcome indicators.
