This study was conducted to study the effect of acculturation on the permanent resident and naturalized citizens' mental health status. The Survey Data of Foreign Residents in Korea 2012 was utilized. Independent variable was the acculturation level, measured by the duration of life spent in Korea and the level of Korean proficiency. The dependent variable was the mental health outcome. Initially, acculturation showed protective effect on mental health of immigrants. But after adjustment of control variables, the effect of acculturation disappeared. This result does not converge into the general trajectory of mental health status among immigrants regarding the level of acculturation. The experience of discrimination had outstanding negative effect, which suggests policy inception point.

Currently, Korea is entering an aging society, causing the issues of older adults in a wide range of fields. This study focuses on the health and safety issues of the older adults. As a theoretical background, Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory was applied, and a new theory was established in connection with the physiological needs and safety needs of the 5 stages of desire in relation to the health and safety issues of the older adults. Health issues applying to physiological needs for the older adults are examined in detail in the body, perception and psychology areas, and safety accidents occurring indoors and outdoors are examined in relation to safety needs. Naver DataLab, a big data portal, shows that the number of bugs regarding health and safety of the older adults is steadily increasing. And through Google Trends, we can understand the interest setting up related search keyword about the older adults. According to the related search keywords, social part related to health in health issues is ranked high and kewords related to accident type in safety issues is ranked high. These findings will be an important basis data for research and solution to the issues of older adults.

최근 기후변화로 인하여 발생하는 강우 사상의 변화와 산업화 및 지표면 개발로 인한 인위적인 유역 특성의 변화는 유역 내 지표수 유출 및 지하수 함양에 영향을 미치게 되고, 이는 유역 내 하천 수생태계의 변화를 야기 할 수 있다. 또한 수문순환 요소 간의 상호 영향으로 인하여 유역 내 수문순환 요소의 변화는 타 수문순환 요소의 변화에 영향을 미칠 수 있기 때문에 유역 내 생태수문순환의 변화를 분석하기 위해서는 수문순환 요소 간의 상관관계와 수문순환 요소와 생태요소 간 상관관계의 규명이 매우 중요하다. 이번 연구는 하천 수생태계 건강성 및 지하수위 모니터링 자료 간 상관관계를 분석함으로써 지하수위의 변화가 하천 수생태계 건강성에 미칠 수 있는 영향을 분석하였다. 연구 지역을 선정하기 위하여 국내 전국 시·군 단위 행정구역 별 하천 수생태계 건강성 및 강수, 하천수위, 지하수위 등 수문순환 요소의 모니터링 자료를 수집하고, 유역 내 유출 특성을 대표할 수 있는 지표를 선정하여 국내 전국 행정구역 별 생태수문순환 건전성 악화 예상 지역을 평가하였다. 대표 연구 대상 행정구역을 선정하고, 행정구역 내 대표 하천 별 수생태계 건강성 모니터링 자료와 국가지하수위 관측망 및 농촌지하수관측망 지하수위 모니터링 자료의 상관관계 분석을 통하여 수생태계 건강성과 지하수위 변동 간 상관관계 분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 비교적 연중 흐름이 일정하게 유지되며 하천의 흐름을 유지하는데 기여할 수 있는 지하수위의 수생태계 건강성 관리 및 확보 측면에 대한 중요성을 정량적으로 제시할 수 있다. 추후 연구에서는 데이터 분석 결과를 바탕으로 강우-유출, 지하수 흐름 해석 모형의 결합을 통해 관리 방안 적용에 따른 효과를 제시하고자 한다.

To achieve this, this study analyzes primitive data of community health survey that each health center had recently conducted in 2013. Study socioeconomic characteristics, health behavior, disease morbidity, medical care showed that various factors affecting health-related quality of life. It was found that medical aid beneficiaries showed lower health related-quality of life than health insurance beneficiaries because not good socioeconomic characteristics, health behavior, disease morbidity, and medical care and even as a comparative result after controlling socioeconomic characteristics, it was found that medical aid beneficiaries health-related quality of life was lower because of not good health behavior, disease morbidity, and medical care. Therefore, to improve health-related quality of life in medical aid beneficiaries as effectively as possible, improving mental health including managing chronic disease and stress and depression and daily living activities is above all important and our national concern with developing systematic program and policies focusing on health promotion behaviors such as moderate drinking habits and regular exercise and eating habits is required.

연구 목적: 1980년대 이후 미국 여성들의 유방암 조기 진단을 위한 방사선 검진율은 급속히 증가하였음에도 불구하고 유색 인종의 여성들은 여전히 조기 검진의 혜택을 받지 못하고 있다. 유색인종 여성들의 낮은 검진율을 설명하기 위해 여러 건강행위이론을 이용한 관련 요인들이 연구되어 왔다. 이 논문은 미국 보건 의료관련 연구에서 가장 많이 쓰이는 다섯 건강행위 이론을 유색 인종 여성, 특히 한국 이민 여성들의 유방암 조기검진 이행에 적용하기 위해 사회문화적 적합성을 평가하기 위해 고안되었다. 연구 방법: 네 종류의 데이터 베이스(CINAHL, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, Sociological Abstracts)를 이용한 심층적 문헌 고찰을 통해 각각의 이론으로 유방암 조기 검진을 설명한 연구들을 모두 분석하였다. 연구 결과: 각 이론들의 배경, 주요 요인, 그리고 유색인종의 유방암 조기 검진에서의 적용 연구 등을 분석하였다. 결론: 서양 문화권 속에서 개발된 각 이론들이 한국적 정서와 행동을 설명하는데 명확한 한계가 있으며 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위해서는 기존의 이론들을 면밀하게 재분석하여 한국적 특성을 담아낼 수 있는 새로운 이론의 도출이 요구된다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to compare and estimate sleep patterns and health status of the shift and non-shift factory workers. Methods: The subjects of this study were 290 male workers in 13 companies, which manufacture automobile parts in Daegu, Korea. Survey data were collected from March 5th, 2007 to April 5th, 2007. PSQI was scored to check the quality of sleep, ESS for excessive daytime sleep disorder, ISI for insomnia, and SF-36 for health status. The data were analyzed by $X^2$ and t-test using SPSS 12.0 for windows. Results: There was a difference in quality of sleep patterns between shift and non-shift workers (p=.033). A difference in the pattern of excessive daytime sleep (P=.005) and in the degree of insomnia (p=.030) were observed between the two groups. However, there were no significant difference in health status between the two groups. Conclusion: Based on these results, shift workers are in need of careful and continuous monitoring regarding sleep disorders and we need to develop health promotion programs including sleep hygiene for shift workers.

The purpose of this study was to find out the relationship between psychosocial well-bing and health promoting lifestyle practices of university students in Korea. The subjects were 282 students of one university in Chung-ju. The data were analyzed by the SAS program using mean, frequency, t-test, ANOVA and pearson correlation coefficient. The major results were as follows: 1. The average score for psychosocial well-being and health promoting lifestyle practices were low at 55.97, 103.5. In the subcategories of health promoting lifestyle practices, the highest degree of performance was interpersonal support(2.77), and the lowest degree was health responsibility(1.49). 2. There weren't statistically significant differences for the Psychosocial well-being according to sociodemographic variables. The performance of health promoting lifestyle practices was significant different according to gender and school year. 3. The Psychosocial well-being was negatively correlated with health promoting lifestyle practices. Also it was negatively correlated with subscale of health promoting lifestyle practices except health responsibility. So, significant correlation between psychoscial well-bing and self-actualization, exercise, nutrition, interpersonal support, stress management was found. Based upon this results, health promoting behavior will be clues for developing a interventional programs and strategies for the health promoting lifestyle practices in university students
