Purpose
To investigate the influence of violence experience and response of coping with violence on professional QoL among emergency department.
Methods
This cross-sectional study, included 179 subjects. Data were collected online from June 24 to July 31, 2022, and were analyzed using independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and multiple regression.
Results
In the compassion satisfaction category, the problem focused coping (β=.328, p<.001) was a significant influencing factor (adj. R² =.103) (F=21.36, p<.001). In the burnout category, violence response (β=.460, p<.001), problem focused coping (β=-.306, p<.001), and violence experience (β=.151, p=.030) were significant influencing factors (adj. R² =.288) (F=24.99, p<.001). In the secondary traumatic stress category, violence response (β=.587, p<.001) and emergency department career (β=.177, p=.011) were significant influencing factors (adj. R² =.383) (F=41.90, p<.001).
Conclusion
To improve professional QoL, it is necessary to understand the current situation related to violence and prepare a coping support system and intervention to prevent violence experiences and reduce negative consequences related to violence for a safe working environment for emergency department nurses.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of hospital-based violence-prevention and coping program on nurses' violence experience and responses, self-efficacy, and organizational commitment. Methods A non-equivalent control group with pre-post-test design was used. Participants were assigned to the experimental (n=27) or a control group (n=26) in 2 general hospitals of one city. For the experimental group, the hospital-based violence-prevention and coping programs were provided once a week for 50-60 minutes across 6 weeks (6 sessions), whereas the control group was the waiting group. Results There were significant differences in self efficacy and organizational commitment at the measured time periods. These results suggest that the effects of the program were persistent until the 4 weeks follow-up. In addition, level of emotional violence responses significantly decreased in the experimental group after 4 weeks in the period following the intervention program. Conclusion The hospital-based violence prevention and coping program developed can be an effective strategy for preventing and reducing emotional violence responses and improving self efficacy and organizational commitment. Therefore, it is recommended that the program be actively used with clinical nurses to prevent violence and to increase effective coping.

Purpose
This study was conducted to investigate the moderating effect of supervisor's support in relation to violence experience and organizational commitment among staff of special department nurses.
Methods
Participants in this study were nurses working in the emergency, operating and intensive care units of five general hospitals in B city. Data were collected from Aug. 6 to Sep. 14, 2018. Data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients and multi-group path-analysis.
Results
The organizational commitment showed a negative correlation with violence experience (r=-28, p<.001) and a positive correlation with supervisor's support (r=.27, p<.001). There was a negative correlation (r=-.37, p<.001) between violence experience and supervisor's support. As a result of verifying the moderating effect of supervisor's support in relation to violence experience and organizational commitment, there was no significant difference in the path between the high and low supervisor's support groups (∆x ² =1.07, p=.300).
Conclusion
There was no buffering effect of supervisor's support in relation to violence experience and organizational commitment of nurses in special departments. Further research is needed to explore variables that show a moderating effect on the relationship between violence experience and organizational commitment.
