The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of the SOC strategies of college students taking courses related to lifelong educator on their attitude toward the elderly and successful aging in an effort to provide information on how to teach students to take a favorable attitude toward the elderly and acquire knowledge on the right aging. The major findings of the study were as follows: The male students made more use of an arbitrary selection strategy than the female students, and a loss-based selection strategy was more prevailing among the female students. There were no differences in attitude toward the elderly and awareness of successful aging according to gender and the presence or absence of religion. Aging attitude was under the statistically significant positive influence of a compensation strategy, and a loss-based selection strategy had a statistically significant positive impact on awareness of successful aging. Given the findings of the study, a wide variety of programs and contents that are related to lifelong educator and can be of use for college students who make a preparation for successful aging should be developed and provided in consideration of the variables that affect attitude toward the elderly and successful aging.

The purpose of this study was to examine the degree of successful aging and to investigate influencing factors of it in elderly to types of gender. Subjects were 73 male elderly and 77 female elderly, total 150 elderly living at K city in C province, from May to June, 2012. The data were analyzed using the SPSS Win 18.0 program for $X^2$ test, t-test, Pearson's correlation coefficients and multiple regression analysis. The correlated factors of successful aging among male elders included life satisfaction(r=.525, p<.001), family support(r=.355, p=.004), depression(r=-.555, p<.001) and loneliness(r=-.437, p<.001). Those of successful aging among female elders included life satisfaction(r=.607, p<.001), leisure satisfaction(r=.679, p<.001), family support(r=.784, p<.001), depression(r=-.516, p<.001), loneliness(r=-.644, p<.001) and self-transcendence(r=.576, p<.001). Life satisfaction and depression were statistically significant influencing factors of successful aging in male elders. Especially in the cases of female elders, life satisfaction, depression, family support and self-transcendence affected to successful aging. Life satisfaction, depression, family support, and self-transcendence were explained 52.9% in perception of successful aging among elders. This study suggests that life satisfaction, depression, family support, and self-transcendence will be considered in enhancing the successful aging promoting care and welfare designed for types of gender.

This study aimed to examine climacteric symptoms, health promoting behaviors, aging anxiety in middle-aged women and determine whether these variables influence aging anxiety. The subjects were 228 middle-aged women. SPSS 27.0 was used to perform t-test, ANOVA, correlation, and stepwise multiple regression analysis. The average age of the participants was 53.25 years old. Climacteric symptoms (r=.552, p<.001), health promoting behaviors (r=-.290, p<.001) were significantly correlated with aging anxiety. The participants' perception of their health status (β=-.132, p<.001), climacteric symptoms (β=.464, p=.016), and health promoting behaviors (β=-.146, p=.005) were significant predictors of aging anxiety, and the explanatory power of these variables was 33.7.0%. This study reveals the necessity that health promotion programs should be provided, taking into consideration personal perceptions of menopausal symptoms and health.

외부 환경에 대한 장벽으로서 피부기능의 고전적인 개념은 중요한 신진대사와 면역학적 작용이 일어나는 것을 인식함으로써 확장 되었다. 피부의 면역학적 역할은 면역적 상해의 단순한 표적 이라는 것에서 피부와 연관된 피부와 면역반응의 개시와 조절에서 활발한 역할을 수행하는 것으로 확대되었다. 본 총설은 면역계의 토대가 되는 중요한 기작을 알아보고자 한다. 또한 Langerhans cells와 keratinocytes 뿐만아니라 항산화제, 자와선, 지방산 등이 피부 노화에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보고자 한다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the mediating effects of empathy in relation to contact experience of the elderly and their knowledge level of ageing. For this study data was collected from 20th Dec. to 30th of Dec. 2018 355 university students from D university in J. province were surveyed. Data was analysis by using reliability test, correlation analysis, hierarchical multiful regression analysis. The statistical significance of the mediating effects was confirmed by Sobel's verification. The results of the analysis showed that the partial mediation effect of empathy was verified with regard to the relationship between elderly contact experience and discrimination of elderly people. In addition, the partial mediation effect of empathy was verified between level of aging knowledge and the perception of elderly discrimination. The results of this study confirmed the necessity of developing practical education and training programs to improve the level of aging knowledge and to increase contact experience with elderly people. There is also a need to enhance empathy in order to improve the awareness of discrimination against elderly people in health and welfare departments among university students.

우리나라의 노년층에 대한 이해에 있어 가장 어려운 점은 성에 대한 인식의 부족에서 오는 경우가 많다. 실제 상당수의 노인이 노화로 인해 신체적으로 퇴화되더라도 성기능을 보전하고 싶어 하는 욕구나 이성교제에 대한 관심도 많은 편이다. 이제 노인의 성에 대한 인식을 새롭게 하고 건강하고 활기찬 생활이 되도록 노력하는 것이 필요하다.

This study was conducted with 202 elderly people aged 65 years or older (40.6% male and 59.4% female) participating in physical activities centered on line dance and rhythmic gymnastics. To achieve the main objectives of the study, a questionnaire for mature aging attitude, depression and successful aging was used. The results are as follows. First, matured aging attitude influenced negatively on depression. Second, matured aging attitude influenced positively on successful aging. Third, depression influenced negatively on successful aging. Based on the above results, it is necessary to encourage the elderly to participate in physical activities to achieve successful aging through active interventions against depression.

This study aims to identify and evaluate the contents of ageism and to develop instrument of ageism. Ageism instrument development remains a necessary in aging research, for the explication of actual condition of ageing. The current study describes multidimensional view of ageism toward aging and the elderly. After pre-test and review of professionals, 31 items was constructed. Data were obtained from KGSS Survey of 1535 participants. The sample was randomly divided into two group to test reliability and validity of the scale. Finally, the 23-items with seven factors were suggested, based on the internal reliability and exploratory factor analysis with the first group. Another group were conducted confirmatory factor analysis. The results showed that the final 23-item scale with seven factors had a good model fit. Development and refinement of ageism scale are necessary elements for proceeding beyond theoretical and empirical discussions in ageism. It also provides a implications for current views of ageism and strategies for reducing ageism.

사람의 체세포가 분열수명에 한계가 있다는 것은 1960년대 초기에 보고되었으며 이것은 artifact가 아니며 세포자신이 가지는 프로그램에 의한 것임이 보고된 것은 최근의 일이다. 그러나 이 프로그램 안에 체세포가 실지로 증식을 정지하는 시기, 모든 세포노화의 타이밍이 어떻게 설정되는가\ulcorner 에 대해서는 아직 알 수 없다. 한편 노화세포가 왜 증식할 수 없는가\ulcorner 에 대해서는 세포주기를 조절하는 유전자에 관한 최근의 연구에 의해 상당부분 밝혀졌다. 또한 분열회수를 인식하는 분열시계의 진행은 세포증식을 억제하는 유전자의 발현을 촉진하여 증식을 정지시킨다. 분열시계를 정지시킨 세포는 기본적으로 무한히 분열하는 것이 가능하다. 분열시계를 정지시키는 주역은 telomerase이다. 정상 세포에서는 생식소(生殖巢)에 존재한다. 대부분의 정상체세포, 세포조직에는 없으나 대부분의 암에서 존재한다. 본 논단에서는 전반부에 노화를 후반부에 암에 관해서 분자세포생물학 차원에서 최근 연구성과를 중심으로 살펴보고자 한다.

노화현상에 관련된 가설은 프로그램설, 세포손상축적설 등 다양하나 증거와 연구자료가 아직은 불충분하고 미흡하다. 현재 상당한 주목을 받고 있고 또 일견 설득력이 있는 것으로 수용되고 있는 oxygen species에 의한 세포손상축적 가설은 시험관 또는 생체 내에서의 실험과 관측을 통해 연구에 상당한 진전이 있음에도 노화현상을 해석하는 또 다른 실마리에 불과하다. Oxygen radical이 세포내의 거대분자들 중 DNA에 손상과 변이를 일으키거나, 우리기를 수반하지 않는 다른 기작에 의해 조직손상이 일어나면서 세포내의 유리기반응에 이차적 장애가 유도되어 세포내의 분자들이 훼손되거나 변화됨으로서, 이들 손상물이 시간과 더불어 축적하여 신체기능의 퇴행을 수반한 질병과 노화현상이 나타나게 된다는 것이다. 유리기에 대한 효과를 가지는 SOD, catalase, glutathione, peroxidase, metal-chelator와 chain-breaking 효과를 가진 alpha-tocopherol, beta-carotere, urate, ascorbate, ubiquinone, glutathione, protein-thiol 등 항산화물질의 적용과 섭취의 중요성이 인식되었다.
