“…Pode também significar uma alta em custos médicos, erros, licenças médicas, farmacodependência e absenteísmo, conforme enfatizado pela ILO (2016). Nesse sentido, é importante considerar que o custo das ações de promoção da capacidade para o trabalho como forma de prevenir doenças e acidentes é menor quando comparado ao custo dos tratamentos, portanto, além dos benefícios humanos, ações de contenção do estresse podem também gerar considerável economia para as instituições, conforme relatado por Clark et al (2011).…”

The sample ranged from 19 to 65 years of age, with 77% of participants male and 23% female. It was comprised of military police (n=1,017), military fire brigade (n=108), civil police (n=454), forensic specialists (n=68), and administrative staff (n=190). It was found that 52% exhibited symptoms of stress. Quality of life was found to be lacking, primarily regarding health. The data show a significant association between high stress levels and poor quality of life. The study reveals that there is a need for institutional actions to stimulate the acquisition of stress coping strategies that can promote a better quality of life among public security servants in the state.

“…삶의 질과 스트레스는 밀접한 관계가 있다 (Clark et al, 2011). 관련 연구를 살펴보면, 생활 스트레스가 높을수록 삶 의 질은 낮아지는 것으로 나타났고 (Chon & Kim, 1991) (Cha, 2013;Kim, 2011;Park & Kim, 2013;Song, 2012 …”

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify factors associated with quality of life of nursing students during clinical practice. Methods: A convenience sample of 332 nursing students completed the questionnaire from July to September, 2013. A self-reported questionnaire was used to obtain data on quality of life, stress related to clinical practice, and health promotion behavior. Data was analyzed with independent t-test, one way ANOVA and Scheffe's post hoc test, Pearson correlation coefficients, and hierarchical multiple regression by using SPSS version 20.0. Results: There were significant differences in quality of life scores by age, economic status, interpersonal relationships, daytime somnolence, number of visits in pharmacy and/or healthcare center, health status, and stress management. Quality of life had positive correlation with health promotion behavior but had negative correlation with the level of stress related to clinical practice. Models including these variables explained 34.3% (F=9.77, p<.001) of the variance for quality of life. Age, economic status, sleep amount, numbers of pharmacy/hospital visits, health status, stress during clinical practice, and health promotion behavior were significantly associated with quality of life in nursing students. Conclusion: There is a need to develop and implement new strategies that will result in improvement in nursing students' quality of life.
