The data was collected from May to June, 2005. The results were as follows: Firstly, the main entrances, exits and width of stairways had narrow spaces, the handles and bars did not conform with the terms presented in the manual above. Front doors should be opened like a bay for wheelchair use.

This study was conducted to determine the influence of socio-economic status of potential consumers on the types of senior congregate housing(SCH) among 4 urban areas(Seoul Metropolitan area, Busan, Gwangaju, and Daejun). This study was part or a research series to develop SCH which meets the korean situation. The Questionnaire used for the final analysis involved 1006 people and SPSS Windows program was used for statistical analysis. The opinion about SCH should differ among the 4 urban areas according to Socio-Economic Status(SES). The results of this study were as follows: The opinions on SCH varied in each region according to SES indicating that diverse constructions of senior housing to meet selective needs of the old can create high demand in a construction market. In order to induce active participation of the private sector, the Ministry of Construction and Transportation, rather than the Ministry of Health and Welfare, should be in charge of the development of SCH. This is desirable in the perspective of developing new types of housing as for general housing. In this case, the Ministry of Construction and Transportation should consider geographic locations and environmental factors of each city. Moreover, the successful development of SCH needs an effort to reexamine an appropriate development plan rather than adopting the cases of developed countries without criticism. In terms of policies, the government should provide financial support for building sharing space, give an exception on a measurement rate, assist in the education of supervisors and establish a management system and so on.

Respondents thought 'family and government' had a responsibility to solve senior citizens 'housing problem. Second, a majority of the participants showed an intention to eventually move into a senior congregate housing. However, the group who did not Intend to live in senior congregate housing had a higher income and greater property assets. The appropriate time for the move to senior congregate housing was keyed to a desire to avoid loneliness. On the other hand, a high degree of satisfaction with current housing was the primary reason given for not wanting to move to senior congregate housing. In conclusion, senior congregate housing should be developed as a model for the middle class and might be successful when combined with a high quality social and health program.

The purpose of this research is to find out the differences of participation in common activities and life satisfaction of Swedish senior cohousing residents between the years of 2001 and 2010 by conducting a longitudinal study. The same questionnaire were surveyed nationwide to 186 residents of 8 Senior $G{\aa}rden$ cohousings in 2001 and 127 residents of 4 +40 cohousings in 2010, resulting in total 313 respondents' data. The results show that the +40 cohousing respondents are more likely than Senior $G{\aa}rden$ cohousing respondents to participate in all common activities, especially common meals and common coffee meetings. However, the subjective evaluation of the quantity as well as the contents of participating in common activities does not statistically differ in the two groups and life satisfaction is similarly high with a few differences. The +40 cohousing respondents are less likely to stay at and more likely to move into age-mixed cohousing if they have a chance to move when compared to their Senior $G{\aa}rden$ cohousing counterparts. The result of this research reveals that the general characteristics of senior cohousing residents have been changed and they have become more likely to be active participants of various common activities and have high life satisfaction.

The purpose of this study was 1) to review communal housing in the UK, 2) to consider the policy implications for elderly communal housing in Korea. The research methods used were 1) literature review about communal housing and related policy in the UK 2) field survey in the UK 3) interpretative suggestion for the proper policy implication to develope communal housing for the elderly in Korea. Sheltered housing in the UK had been developed as communal housing for the elderly with special needs since the 1970s. The type of sheltered housing were category 1 and category 2. Very sheltered housing with more facilities and meal services was added in 1980s. Sheltered housing was evaluated as the most humanistic solution for older people in the UK in 1980s. Because of the policy of moving institutional care to community care, sheltered housing became less in demand because of more options for older people including being able to stay in their own home. So new completion of sheltered housing by registered social landlords reduced saliently. Sheltered housing already totalled over half million units in which 5% of all elderly over 65 still lived and a small quantity of private sector for sale schemes emerged in the 1990s. The reason why the residents moved to sheltered housing was for sociable, secure, and manageable living arrangements. In general the residents were satisfied with these characteristics but dissatisfied with the service charge and quality of meals, especially in category 2.5 schemes. The degree of utilisation of communal spaces and facilities depended on the wardens ability and enthusiasm. Evaluation of sheltered housing indicated several problems such as wardens duty as a \"good neighbour\" ; difficult-to-let problems with poor location or individual units of bedsittiing type with shared bathroom ; and the under use of communal spaces and facilities. Some ideas to solve these problems were suggested by researchers through expanding wardens duty as a professional, opening the scheme to the public, improving interior standards, and accepting non-elderly applicants who need support. Some researchers insisted continuing development of sheltered housing, but higher standards must be considered for the minority who want to live in communal living arrangement. Recently, enhanced sheltered housing with greater involvement of relatives and with tied up policy in registration and funding suggested as an alternative for residential care. In conclusion, the rights of choice for older people should be policy support for special needs housing. Elderly communal housing, especially a model similar to sheltered housing category 2 with at least 1 meal a day might be recommended for a Korean Model. For special needs housing development either for rent or for sale, participation of the public sector and long term and low interest financial support for the private sector must be developed in Korea. Providing a system for scheme managers to train and retrain must be encouraged. The professional ability of the scheme manager to plan and to deliver services might be the most important factor for the success of elderly communal housing projects in Korea. In addition the expansion of a public health care service, the development of leisure programs in Senior Citizens Centre, home helper both for the elderly in communal housing and the elderly in mainstream housing of the community as well. Providing of elderly communal housing through the modified general Construction Act rather than the present Elderly Welfare Act might be more helpful to encourage the access of general people in Korea. in Korea.

한국이 빠르게 고령화 사회에서 고령사회로 진입함에 따라 성공적인 노화, 노후 생활이 개인뿐만 아니라 사회적으로도 관심을 받고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 노인의 행복과 불행 관련된 신문 기사를 통해 전체적인 이해와 더불어 제안을 하기 위한 목적으로 연구를 진행했다. 노인의 행복과 불행에 관련된 기존 연구는 연구대상의 특성상 인터뷰 혹은 인터뷰를 동반한 설문조사의 방법론을 사용해 영향요인을 재확인하거나, 단일효과를 검증하는데 머물렀다. 또한 노인의 행복과 불행에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요인 파악과 더불어 정부, 기업, 가정 및 기타 사회 복지기관으로 분류하여 실증적인 행복 증진, 불행 경감 방안을 제시한 연구가 이루어지지 않았다. 따라서 본 연구는 Alderfer의 ERG 이론을 기반으로 검색어를 선정해 18년간(수집 기간: 2001. 08~2018. 02) 온라인 신문기사를 총 211,309건(행복: 200,246건, 불행: 11,063건)을 수집하여 연구를 진행했다. 분석결과 행복 관련 토픽은 연금, 사회 인프라, 건강, 공동체, 복지, 문화생활, 성공적인 노후, 봉사, 종교, 귀농으로 도출되었고, 불행 관련 토픽은 노인 우울, 복지 부족, 종교 의지, 질병, 은퇴 후 소득, 문화, 봉사, 역사적 사건, 예술, 가족 단절로 나타났다. 추가로 토픽 네트워크 분석을 통하여 각 토픽의 키워드 사이의 네트워크를 시각화했다. 따라서 본 연구는 결과를 통한 실현 가능한 제안을 했다는 점을 시사한다.

본 연구는 노인의료복지시설 및 서비스의 공간적 형평성을 측정·분석하여 공간적 배분의 공정성을 확보하기 위한 방안을 모색하는데 목적을 두었다. 이를 위해 노인의료복지시설의 유형과 기능 등에 대한 사회복지학 및 공간 배치의 형평성에 대한 지리학 또는 지역개발학의 학문을 융합하여 연구를 진행하였다. 본 연구의 주요 결과를 보면, 첫째, 노인의료복지시설의 공간적 배치(욕구 대 서비스)의 경우 노인의료복지시설은 시·군지역 모두에 있었지만, 대체로 시지역에 많이 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 노인의료복지서비스의 지역적 배분의 형평성의 경우 시지역과 군지역을 비교해보면 시지역에 비해 군지역의 형평성이 높다. 셋째, 노인의료복지서비스의 공간적 형평성에서 노인요양시설의 공간적 형평성은 시설까지 도달하는데 소요되는 시간에 따라서 통계학적인 차이를 보이며, 거리에 따라서는 차이를 보이지 않았다. 노인요양공동생활가정의 공간적 형평성은 시와 군간에 통계학적으로 차이를 보이며, 군지역에 비해 시지역의 공간적 형평성이 양호함을 알 수 있다. 이상의 연구 결과를 바탕으로 다양한 제언을 하였고, 사물인터넷, AI 등의 기술을 접목한 융합 연구들의 필요성을 제시하였다.
