Background: This randomized and controlled pre- and post-test experimental study investigated the effects of a nonviolent communication education program on empathy, interpersonal relationships, stress, and resilience among Korean nursing students.
Methods: We included 51 Korean nursing students from a university in Busan Metropolitan City, Republic of Korea, with 26 in the experimental group and 25 in the control group. Data were collected from May to August 2024, and the nonviolent communication education program was conducted for 8 hours daily. To confirm program effectiveness, the participants were asked to practice nonviolent communication during the 5 weeks of participation in the program, and a reflection journal was to be written daily. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, χ-tests, independent -tests, and a repeated-measures analysis of variance.
Results: The over-time change in empathy and interpersonal relationship scores in the experimental group was significantly different from those in the control group (F=8.540, <0.001 and F=3.654, =0.029, respectively). However, the over-time change in stress and resilience scores in the experimental group was not significantly different from those in the control group (F=0.366, =0.851 and F=0.256, =0.775, respectively).
Conclusion: The nonviolent communication education program was effective in promoting empathy and interpersonal relationships among nursing students. However, its effects on stress and resilience were not significant. Periodic implementation of the program coupled with stress-relief strategies may be effective. A long-term program must be implemented to verify changes in nursing students' self-understanding. Moreover, further research is needed on the sustainability of the program's effects.

This study used social network analysis to examine discussion networks within an immigrant religious organization consistent with a nonviolent ideological group. Specifically, participants from a Vietnamese Buddhist monastery listed members with whom they discussed religious issues, and whom they perceived influential, and members' attitudes and behaviors toward nonviolence were measured. A valued exponential random graph modeling examined whether individual attributes (i.

While engagement in risk-taking is highly prevalent during youth, there are individual differences in its expression. Generally, male youth tend to engage in risk-taking more than female youth. However, sex differences in risk-taking behaviors may be modulated by political mobilization processes.

Dating violence programs commonly cite communication skill deficits as important targets for intervention. However, how romantically involved adolescent couples navigate conflict positively has been understudied, including the association of positive conflict styles and dating violence behaviors. Here, we investigated positive conflict strategies used by adolescents during an observed conflict task with Mexican American dating couples and the associations to self-reported relationship quality and dating violence behaviors.

Based on multi-sited fieldwork in Denmark, I explore how Danish women and men negotiate their positions as potential victims of intimate partner violence: in particular, psychological violence. First, focusing on retrospective stories about everyday life, I argue that violence may be experienced as subtle and not necessarily noisy. Second, by turning my attention to public narratives about psychological violence, I demonstrate that they often fail to align with the interlocutors' stories.
