Challenging gore masculinity with cat memes
This study examines the cultural shift in South Korean online communities through the transformation from the “I’m the Only One Without a Cat” meme (2017) to the “A Cat is Walking on the Frozen Han River” meme (2024). Through digital ethnography and interviews, this study argues that this evolution reflects a shift in online animal ethics amid South Korea’s male-dominated online culture characterized by “gore masculinity,” which exploits women an…
Job search anxiety and flourishing among university students
This study provides novel insights for mental health professionals, policymakers, and educators concerning the serial mediating mechanism linking job search anxiety and flourishing. These findings underscore the importance of assessing job search anxiety among university students and providing psychological interventions that promote flourishing, particularly through enhancing social support and encouraging strengths use
Machine learning models to predict the maximum severity of Covid-19 based on initial hospitalization record
Background: As the worldwide spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) continues for a long time, early prediction of the maximum severity is required for effective treatment of each patient. Objective: This study aimed to develop predictive models for the maximum severity of hospitalized COVID-19 patients using artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) algorithms. Methods: The medical records of 2,263 COVID-19 patients admitted to 1…
The Impact of Perinatal Loss Nursing Simulation among Undergraduate Students
Providing careful and proper care for women experiencing perinatal loss is essential. Nurses and nursing students must be sufficiently prepared to provide adequate care. Caring for women who experienced a perinatal loss requires special education and instruction, but little is provided to nursing students. This study aimed to investigate the impact of simulation education directed toward caring for women with perinatal loss. A single-group pretes…
Mental Health and Handgrip Strength Among Older Adults
Handgrip strength is used as an important indicator of health in older adults. We aimed to explore the association between stress, depression, and suicidal ideation and handgrip strength among older adults. We conducted this cross-sectional study involving 1254 individuals (aged ≥65 years), using data from the 2015 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey VI. We used logistic regression analysis to examine associations between hand…
Quasi‐Experimental Evidence on the Effects of Expanding Cash Welfare
We study the labor supply and consumption responses to cash assistance delivered through the Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) program in the United States. Exploiting a sharp increase in cash benefit generosity for low‐income single‐parent families in New Hampshire due to a legislative revision to payment calculations, we implement difference‐in‐differences and triple‐differences to estimate the impacts of greater benefits on work be…
Coastal Tourism Spatial Planning at the Regional Unit
There is an increasing need for spatial planning to manage coastal tourism, and applying social media data has emerged as an effective strategy to support coastal tourism spatial planning. Researchers and decision-makers require spatially explicit information that effectively reveals the current visitation state of the region. The purpose of this study is to identify coastal tourism hotspots considering appropriate spatial units in the regional s…
Mental Health Status of Adults with Cardiovascular or Metabolic Diseases by Gender
This study aimed to compare mental health in people with cardiovascular or metabolic diseases and the general adult population in each gender. Cardiovascular and metabolic diseases affect mental health, and the prognosis and incidence rates of these diseases differ by age. To date, studies comparing mental health in adults with cardiovascular or metabolic diseases by gender and with the general population have been insufficient. This work is a cr…
Weight Gain Predicts Metabolic Syndrome among North Korean Refugees in South Korea
Previous cross-sectional studies showed that immigrants from low-income to high-income countries have higher risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus. We investigated the association between weight gain during the resettlement in South Korea and risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS) among North Korean refugees (NKRs) in this cross-sectional study. In total, 932 NKRs aged 20-80 years in South Korea voluntarily underwent health exami…
Quantifying nature-based tourism in protected areas in developing countries by using social big data
Spatial visitation patterns and its features on nature-based tourism are difficult to assess using only a field-based survey, which is costly and labor intensive. However, understanding of a protected area's visitation status is critical, as it can strongly influence the sustainability of natural resources. Hence, it is important to identify ‘where people visit’ and ‘why people visit,’ to evaluate the features attractive to tourists. In this rega…
Prevalence of General and Central Obesity and Associated Factors among North Korean Refugees in South Korea by Duration after Defection from North Korea
Previous studies on obesity status among North Korean refugees (NKRs) have been limited. We investigated mean body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), and general and central obesity prevalence among NKRs in South Korea (SK) by duration after defection from North Korea (NK), using cross-sectional data of the North Korean Refugee Health in South Korea (NORNS) study and compared these data with a sample from the general South Korean populat…
Data Resource Profile
The Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) is a national surveillance system that has been assessing the health and nutritional status of Koreans since 1998. Based on the National Health Promotion Act, the surveys have been conducted by the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC). This nationally representative cross-sectional survey includes approximately 10 000 individuals each year as a survey sample a…
