The purpose of this study is to compare the differences in human rights perception between people with disabilities and staffs in the disabled residential facilities. Using data from the '2014 Human Rights Survey on Disability in the Disabled Residential Facilities' for 602 facilities, the study compared their perception of human rights(16 items), including human rights guarantee(12 items) and human rights violation(4 items). Result showed that the rate of perception for human rights guarantee and violation(except staff violation) of staffs was higher than people with disabilities(p<.05). This study demonstrated that there were significant differences in human right perception between people with disabilities and staffs. The cause of this difference would be the conflict between roles of staff and needs of person with disabilities, absence of human rights indicators by mutual consent between the two. Our findings suggested a need for study on strategies to solve gap of perception between the two, such as integrated human rights education, developing consensual human rights indicators.

The definition of digital poverty of multicultural families has not been changed since it was used at the first digital divide survey in 2012. The objective of this study is to reexamine and redefine digital poverty targets of digital divide survey for multicultural families. The results suggest to reexamine multicultural families rather than limiting to Immigrant women for digital poverty. The results were as follows. First, the current survey has been limited to the migrant women for information gap survey of married migrants. But, It is expected to increase immigrant men in the future. It should include migrant men in the marginalized target in terms of preparation for a multicultural society. Second, the current survey has been limited to the migrant women for information gap survey. But, It is expected to increase children of multicultural families. This information gap is likely to be linked to differences in education or future economic disparities for children of multicultural families. It should include children of multicultural families in the marginalized target in digital divide survey.

This study aims to analyze whether both childcare subsidy and childcare leave policies have moderating effects on the relationship between Korean women's value of children and their intentions for subsequent childbirth. The data are used from the 2015 National Survey on Fertility and Family Health and Welfare. Both hierarchical multiple regression analysis and moderated regression analysis are used for statistical analysis. The findings from the study are as follow. First, the ideal number of children, instrumental values, and emotional values have positive effects on the intentions for subsequent childbirth after controlling for background variables(level of education, income, age, and number of children). Second, childcare leave policy has no significant effect on the intentions for subsequent childbirth while childcare subsidy policy has the negative effect. Third, only childcare subsidy policy has moderating effects on the relationship between instrumental, emotional values, and the intentions for subsequent childbirth. These results suggest that policies enhancing the value of children should be implemented in addition to traditional birth rate policies. Furthermore, new birth rate polices are needed for those married women who have a high possibility of subsequent childbirth.

To supply basic data for systemic nutrition education, perception of nutrition education and nutrition knowledge was investigated in elementary school students (4~6th grade) in Chungnam province. Forty-six percent of students had a normal level of interest in nutrition, and 43.8% of students had a normal level of nutrition knowledge. Male students (56.1%) and female students (43.7%) wanted nutrition education via lectures in class (p<0.001), with a significant difference based on gender. In addition, most students wanted 'cooking' as nutrition education content, with a significant difference based on gender (p<0.001). Approximately 59% of students (boys 53.7% and girls 64.6%) responded that the reason not to practice the contents of nutrition education is 'not interested' (male 44%, female 34.1%) (p<0.05). For necessity of nutrition education, 38.1% of subjects answered 'normal', and 42.8% of students responded that nutrition education is not helpful since there is no interest. On the contrary, necessity of nutrition education was recognized by 30.8% of male students and 30.8% of female students for prevention of obesity and health life with a balanced diet, respectively. Students (66%) wanted a nutrition teacher, and 33.2% of male students wanted nutrition education once a month, whereas 34.5% of female students wanted it once a week (p<0.01). And 54.8% of students responded that current frequency of nutrition education is adequate. The average score of nutrition knowledge for female students was higher than that of male students, and a higher grade received a higher score of nutrition knowledge. The level of nutrition knowledge was not relevant to the actual score of the individual. Based on this result, it is necessary to activate and expand nutrition education in elementary schools to emphasize the importance of nutrition education. Additionally, future nutrition education should be more available to practice in life as well as improvement of nutrition knowledge. Investigation into nutrition knowledge according to gender and grade is necessary for continuous and systemic nutrition education.

This study aims to discover patterns of Korean women's life course in terms of their life time sequence of family roles and economic activity. Primary factors for the change and diversity of family-work role sequence are also examined. Data used in this study is the Fourth Survey of Korean Women's Economic Activity which was conducted by Korean Institute of Women Development (KIWD) in 2002. According to the main results, five distinctive patterns of life course are to be disentangled for ever married women: First, doing simultaneously family and work roles with no maternal leave (13.7%); second, reentry into labor market after maternal leave (M type, 18.6%); third, no reentry into labor market after maternal leave (latent M type, 26.9%); fourth, first job entry after child rearing (23.5%); and finally, no work experience (17.3%). The relative composition of the respective life course has changed over marriage cohorts. M type including latent M type became a dominant life pattern among married women since marriage cohorts of 1980 and later. The share of married women who begin to work first after maternal role or have no work experience has declined with recent marriage cohorts. It is also noted that the share of women with simultaneous family and work roles has increased among marital cohorts of 1990 and later. Marriage cohort differences being controlled, life patterns significantly differ by women's educational level, existence of role model of working mother at growth, women's own and husbands' gender role attitude, and family economy. Finally, some policy concerns for gender role division of family and work are raised.

현재의 농업에서 농약의 사용은 불가결한 것이다. DDT의 등장으로 농약만능시대의 막이 열린 이래 세계에서 10만종 이사의 농약이 탄생했다. 현재 전세계의 생산량은 매년 1천만 톤을 넘어섰고 일본의 경우 등록되어 있는 농약수는 원체(화합물종류)로서 367종, 상품명으로서는 약 5800 종류가 판매되고 있다. 년간 일본의 농약생산량은 약 60만 톤으로 농약의 수출량과 수입량이 거의 같기 때문에 생산량이 사용량에 상당하는 것으로 본다. 농약의 식품오염의 측면에서 보면, 단위 면적당 세계 제 1위의 농약 사용국인 일본은 시장에 유통되고 있는 농작물에도 상당한 양의 농약이 잔류하는 것으로 본다. 물론 식품위생법에 26종의 농약에 대해 53작물을 대상으로 하는 잔류농약기준이 있지만, 농약성분이 400종 이상이며 산포 대상이 되는 작물은 53작물보다 훨씬 많다. 또한 한 두 종류의 작물밖에 대상이 되지 않는 농약도 많아서 잔류농약기준은 식품의 안전성 확보면에서는 부족한 것이 많아. 따라서 농산물 생산자 스스로가 농약사용기준을 정확하게 지켜주기를 바랄 뿐이다. 한편으로는, 이러한 현실에 비추어서 농약사용이 일상화된 농업자에게 있어 농약으로 인한 건강상의 문제 또한 적지 않다. 농업자의 건강관리 대책의 일환으로 실시하는 건강진단 및 조사에 따르면, 만성적인 질환뿐만 아니라 농약산포작업후에 나타나는 증세(기침, 피부이상, 불쾌감, 두통, 인후염, 구토)를 경험한 작업자는 예방의학적인 견지에서 농업자의 농약폭로실태파악 및 교육을 해오고 있으나 그다지 설득력을 얻지 못하여 보다 확실한 인체내 흡수량을 측정하는 방법을 생각하게 되었다. 즉 뇨중 농약 대사물을 폭로지표로 하는 생물학적 모니터링(biological monitoring)을 시도, 농업현장에 있어서의 그 실증과 유용성에 대한 검토를 하고자 하였다. 농작업 가운데서 가장 위험하다고 보는 농약산포작업 (수동식 분무기를 이용한 하우스작물 및 동력분무기를 사용한 노지작물)을 대상으로 생물학적모니터링을 실시한 결과 업자의 뇨로부터 농약의 체내흡수를 반영하는 농략의 뇨 분비성 대사물을 측정할 수 있었다. 즉 뇨나 혈액등의 생체시료를 이용한 생물학적모니터링의 농약에의 응용은 서구와는 달리 대부분이 규제가 없는 소규모 자가영농으로 정해진 농약사용지침보다 많은 농약을 사용한다거나, 또는 개인의 습관이나 작업환경에 따라 폭로조건이 달라서 실질적인 폭로-흡수의 정도가 불분명한 경우등에도 충분히 대응할 수 있어 농약사용자 개개인의 농약 폭로-흡수의 정도를 분명하게 밝힐 수 있다. 게다가 평가의 결과를 농약사용의 일선에 있는 농업자에게 피드백 하여 주므로서 농약에 대한 인식을 새롭게 하고 농약취급시의 건강장해예방행동을 촉구하는 등의 효과도 높은 것으로 예방의학적인 유용성이 크다고 볼 수 있다.

Digital accessibility of the middle-aged and elderly has been increasing at a faster pace than other groups such as the handicapped and adolescents. However, studies related to the digital accessibility of middle and older adults are scarce. In order to examine variables affecting accessibility to digital information of the middle-aged and elderly people, this study researches the impacts of sociodemographic, physical and mental health and social activity variables on the accessibility of digital information. We analyzed data of 1,661 people between the ages of 55 and 84 from the 2018 Status Survey on Digital Divide conducted by the National Information Society Agency. The hierarchical multiple regression analysis shows the higher education, economic, and life satisfaction levels are, the higher digital accessibility levels of both male and female are. The result of the analysis also shows that the aged male has a higher accessibility level when he does not live alone; meanwhile, the aged female has higher digital capability as her age is lower, which describes that there are differences between gender. We expect the result of this study to be used as an important reference to understand factors related to digital accessibility level and active intervention for improving digital accessibility of the middle-aged and elderly male and female.
