This paper develops the argument that the 'Healthy Cities Approach' extends beyond the boundaries of officially designated Healthy Cities and suggests that signs of it are evident much more widely in efforts to promote health in the United Kingdom and in national policy. It draws on examples from Leeds, a major city in the north of England. In particular, it suggests that efforts to improve population health need to focus on the wider determinants and that this requires a collaborative response involving a range of different sectors and the participation of the community. Inequality is recognised as a major issue and the need to identify areas of deprivation and direct resources towards these is emphasised. Childhood poverty is referred to and the importance of breaking cycles of deprivation. The role of the school is seen as important in contributing to health generally and the compatibility between Healthy Cities and Health Promoting Schools is noted. Not only can Health Promoting Schools improve the health of young people themselves they can also develop the skills, awareness and motivation to improve the health of the community. Using child pedestrian injury as an example, the paper argues that problems and their cause should not be conceived narrowly. The Healthy Cities movement has taught us that the response, if it is to be effective, should focus on the wider determinants and be adapted to local circumstances. Instead of simply attempting to change behaviour through traditional health education we need to ensure that the environment is healthy in itself and supports healthy behaviour. To achieve this we need to develop awareness, skills and motivation among policy makers, professionals and the community. The 'New Health' education is proposed as a term to distinguish the type of health education which addresses these issues from more traditional forms.

삼국지에서 제갈공명은 "나라를 부강하게 만들려면 국민을 교육해야 하고, 교육을 바로 하기 위해서는 사제지관계를 바로 해야 한다"고 말했다. 관계라는 것은 사람을 다루는 모든 사람들에게 요청되는 핵심이다. 사회가 건강하기 위해서는 각 구성요소가 상호 연관할 수 있는 관계적 합리성을 통해서 균형과 조화를 이루어야 한다. '나'라는 존재가 '너'와 소통하지 못하고 또 기업이 사회와도 소통하지 못한다면, 자기중심적이고 자폐적으로 되어간다면 결국 병들기 마련이다. 육체적 건강이든 정신적 건강이든 혹은 사회적 건강이든 관건은 '통'과 '불통'의 문제로 압축된다.

본 논문은 목회자 사모들의 정신건강과 영적 안녕감 간의 관계를 파악하기 위해 부정적 정신건강 요소인 우울과 긍정적 정신건강인 심리적 안녕감이 영적 안녕감에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 그 결과 우울은 영적 안녕감과 부적 관계를, 심리적 안녕감은 영적 안녕감과 정적 관계가 있었고, 우울보다 심리적 안녕감이 영적안녕감에 더 많은 영향을 주는 것을 알 수 있다. 우울과 심리적 안녕감의 하위요인들이 영적안녕감에 미치는 영향도 분석하였다

The purpose of this study is to identify the characteristics and factors of each area by considering the gender health of the elderly as the integration of mental, physical, emotional, and social gender health based on the WHO gender health. The sexual health of the elderly is significantly different by gender, academic background, and region, and there is a clear difference in mental, physical, emotional sexual health and social sexual health. The mental, physical and emotional sexual health of the elderly in urban areas, those with high education and male is high, but the elderly in the rural areas, those with low education, and female are high in social sexual health. The factors affecting sexual health are as follows. Mental sexual health was positively influenced by satisfaction of sexual life and sexual knowledge. Physical sexual health was positively influenced by life and spouse satisfaction, and emotional sexual health was positively influenced by sexual relationship, spouse satisfaction, sexual life satisfaction and sexual knowledge. Social sexual health has a negative (-) effect on spouse satisfaction and sexual relationships. Integrated sexual health in old age can affect subjective health and quality of life, leading to successful aging. Sexual health education is needed to form a safe and healthy sexual life and interpersonal relationship. The 'sex' that appears as a cumulative trajectory of life should be accompanied by the accurate sexual health awareness and sex education that encompasses all generations. Therefore, in the composition of sex health education program, it is necessary to reflect the components that can enhance the sensitivity of adulthood to strengthen understanding and communication of spouse.

This study explored resilience and protective factors in children at-risk. Teachers of 755 children in child care centers replied to questionnaires regarding resiliency and behavior problems; children's mothers replied to questionnaires about risk factors, own parenting, and family hardiness. The data of 216 vulnerable children and 355 children in a comparative group who had not been exposed to any risk factors were analyzed. Findings showed that resilience was differentiated by gender and age; that is, resilience in the vulnerable group covaried as a function of gender and age. The resilience level of the vulnerable group was lower than the comparative group. Children with fewer behavior problems had a higher level of resilience, and resilience was higher for vulnerable children with higher levels of protective factors.
