Purpose This study aimed to examine whether sleep duration mediated the relationship between adolescent smartphone addiction and depression. Moreover, we investigated whether the mediating effects of sleep duration were moderated by parental smartphone addiction.
Methods Wave 4(2021) data collected in 2021 from the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey (KCYPS) 2018 was used. The data collected from 4,392 matched pairs of parents and their children was analyzed, using the SPSS PROCESS macro.
Results Sleep duration partially mediated the relationship between adolescent smartphone addiction and depression. Also, parental smartphone addiction moderated the indirect effect of this mediation model.
Conclusion This suggests that it is necessary to include content on the use of smartphones by adolescents as well as their parents when designing education and intervention programs to prevent depression in adolescents.

Purpose This concept analysis was conducted to clarify ‘parents’ treatment adherence for an epileptic child or adolescent’. Methods The analysis used a hybrid model comprising three phases: theoretical phase, fieldwork phase, and integration phase. In the theoretical phase, fifty studies were reviewed. Interviews with four parents of epileptic children or adolescents were conducted during the fieldwork phase. In the integration phase, the results derived from prior phases were synthesized and clarified. All phases were performed cyclically. Results The concept, ‘parents’ treatment adherence for an epileptic child or adolescent’ was defined as parents’ voluntary and goal-directed behavior towards the epilepsy treatment for their children: a collaborative decision-making process with health-care providers, establishing a support system, adaptability to the treatment plans, and appraisals of the child’s health condition. Conclusion This achievement is thought to contribute to improving the accuracy and validity of the concept measurement. It has implications for additional research on how the concept ‘treatment adherence’ differs in diverse health problems and other population groups than parents of children and adolescents with epilepsy.

PURPOSE This study was conducted to examine effects of parents' rearing attitudes perceived by bullied children. The focus in this study was on mediating effects of ego-resilience. METHODS Data were collected from 202 bullied elementary school students in grade years 5 and 6. The data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis and structural analysis with the SPSS/WIN 19.0 program and Amos 19.0. RESULTS First, significant positive relations between parents' rearing attitudes and ego-resilience, significant negative relations between ego-resilience and bullying, and between parents' rearing attitude and bullying were found. Second, the effects of ego-resilience as a mediator between perceived parents' rearing attitudes and bullying were significant statistically. CONCLUSION The findings suggest that educational programs for parents are needed to improve parents' perception of the importance of their rearing attitudes toward bullying and nursing intervention programs for bullied children should be developed to increase their ego-resilience.
PURPOSE This study was to describe the burden of aged parents caring for adult children with disabilities and related factors. METHODS The subjects were 123 caregivers aged over 65 who were caring for 18-year-old or older children with disabilities. The research tool of this study was a structured questionnaire on family burden. Data were collected from June 3 to 25, 2010, and analyzed by Cronbach's alpha, mean, standard deviation, t-test, and ANOVA using SAS 9.2 program. RESULTS The major findings of this study were as follows. Elderly parents caring for adult children with disabilities perceived a moderate level of burden. The burden from concern over their children's future was highest, and economic and physical burdens were higher when the parents were younger. Burden was significantly different according to parents' characteristics such as gender, perceived health status, disease, the costs of caring for disabled children, and children's characteristics such as disability rating, health status, and ADL. CONCLUSION In order to reduce the burden of elderly parents caring for adult children with disabilities, we need to improve their health status and assess comprehensive policies.
