본 연구는 삶의 질에 관한 관점을 우리 나라 도시저소득층의 주거실태를 중심으로 살펴보고자 한다. 이를 바탕으로 주거빈곤층의 삶의 질 향상을 위한 발전대안을 모색하도록 한다. 국내외 거의 모든 ‘삶의 질’선행연구에 있어 중요한 지표로서‘주택’,‘주거환경’,‘주거장소’등 주거에 관한 상이 포함되어 있다. 즉 삶의 질 연구에 있어 주택 및 주거환경은 가장 기본적이고 필수적 요소임을 확인할 수 있다. 주거빈곤을 기능적 측면, 경제적 측면, 최저주거기준 측면, 그리고 주거권 측면에서 분석하고, 한국의 주거빈곤실태를 파악하였다. 특히 서울을 비롯한 대도시의 주거빈곤층은 달동네.산동네라 불리는 불량주거지, 비닐하우스, 쪽방 등에 거주하며, 이들은 주로 주택점유 형태상 전세, 보증부월세, 월세 등의 임차가구의 대부분을 차지한다. 삶의 질과 주거환경개선을 위한 발전대안 모색을 위해 주거분야 ‘삶의 질 지표’를 제안하였다. 지표의 내용으로 주택 그 자체뿐 아니라 주거기능이 원활하도록 하는 공공서비스, 안전 등의 광의적 접근이 필요함을 강조하였다. 아울러 삶의 질에 관련된 정책과제를 해결하기 위해서는 적어도 네 가지 부문(정부, 민간부문, NGO/CBO, 주민)별 각자의 역할을 강조하였다.

A pixel-based approach to urban quality of life assessment can be regarded as a spatial decision problem under the condition of complexity because it searches the urban space for evidence of hot spots of quality of life based on multiple and differentially weighted evaluation criteria. Such an assessment involves inappropriate scaling of several incommensurate criteria, much unstructured subjectivity in the decision maker's judgment, and the large data handling in a raster GIS environment. There is a need for identifying alternative approaches to tackle the ill-structured problem in urban quality of life assessment. In this context, this research proposes and implements a spatial multicriteria analysis approach to evaluate urban quality of life in a raster GIS environment. The implementation of this methodology is illustrated with a case study of the Atlanta metropolitan area. Results indicate that the proposed methodology may provide an alternative approach for evaluating the quality of life in an urban environment.

The aim of this paper is to examine the men's ideal lives and the aspects of variation in Sijo. In this paper the focus is two texts of Saseol-Sijo. One is the Saseol-Sijo without any known author, the other is the Saseol-Sijo written by Lee Jeong-bo. These works were enjoyed by many people to posterity, and they were played a variation. The first aspect of variation is the emphasis on men's magnanimous and amusable life. This aspect is thought to be a result of the interference of entertainment space. The second aspect of variation is to show the awareness of impossibility of riches and honors and belief in his alternative life. We can see the conflict between reality and desire. This case is thought to be enjoyed by the person who can sympathize with that situation. The third aspect of variation is to show the transcendence of desire for worldly success and the interest in a happy old age. This case is worthy of notice because it shows the interest in old age. This case expresses the desire for comfortable life or pleasure-seeking life, and it is thought to be more concerned with a concrete everyday life than an idea. Sometimes we can see the works that show reflection of his(her) life and mature attitude to life. More studies on these works should be done.

많은 지역이 수자원 관리와 계획에 있어 많은 문제점을 가지고 있으며 우리나라의 경우 장래에 물 부족이 전망되고, 하천 수질과 생태환경의 개선은 국민이 바라는 만큼 기대 수준에 미치고 있지 못하고 있어 우리 삶의 질을 저해하고 있다. 따라서 수자원 계획이나 개발에 있어서 기존의 공급 차원만을 고려하기보다는 수질과 생태환경, 수요적 측면을 함께 고려하는 통합적인 접근 방법들이 시도되고 있다. 점점 증가하는 물수요 때문에 장래에 물 부족이 발생할 것으로 예상되며 이를 해소시킬 수 있는 대안들이 제시되어야 할 것으로 판단된다. 하지만 미래에 발생할 수 있는 다양한 상황들을 예측하고 분석하기는 쉽지 않으며, 물 부족을 해소시킬 수 있는 다양한 대안 중에 최적대안을 찾는 것 또한 쉬운 일이 아니다. 본 연구에서는 한국건설기술연구원과 SEI-US(Stockholm Environment Institute-US Center)가 공동으로 개발한 통합수자원평가계획모형인 K-WEAPq(Korea-Water Evaluation And Planning System Linked QUAL2K) 모형을 이용하여 미래에 발생할 수 있는 다양한 물 수급 전망을 분석하였으며, 물 부족을 해소시킬 수 있는 여러 대안에 따른 물 수급 변화를 분석하였다. 또한 수자원 계획 및 개발 분야에서 여러 상반된 기준들에 대해 최적의 대안들을 찾고 이를 결정하기 위해 다기준의사결정 분석(MCDA: Multicriteria Decision Analysis)을 이용하였다. 낙동강 권역에 대해 2011년 물 수급 전망을 분석한 후 물 부족이 예상되는 지역에 대한 물 부족 해소 정책으로 7가지 대안을 제시하였으며, 사회 경제 환경적 기준에 대해 각각의 대안을 분석하여 최적의 대안을 제시하였다.

This paper attempts to present critical issues of the information society and an alternative research addressing the challenges of ensuring that ICT is applied in ways that are enabling and responsive to social contexts in which people live their lives. Drawing the question of why insights arising from the mainstream vision are rarely useful in policies, the study highlights some developmental paradigms linked to ICT. It explores how ICT is seen as a means to development, and elaborates on the limitations of how current issues are related to the quality of life. The results indicate that ICT reduces quality of life while economic growth entails the opposite. The research framework here involves some meaningful components of cultural residues: independence, risk-taking, government responsibility by mapping how the level of ICT is distributed in the topology of values around the world. Moving to the next phase, ICT policy design and implementation need to be set up practically in a broad perspective that can be pursued by those concerned with social and technological innovation.

Minimalism is an increasingly popular lifestyle in which people deliberately seek to live with fewer possessions. However, little scientific research has been done to examine the relationships between minimalism, social value, and happiness. Two recent studies have investigated whether critical components of minimalism, such as subtraction and decluttering could lead to changes in social values and happiness. In Study 1, the participants were presented with pictures of unstable Lego structures for which they were asked to create ideas to resolve problems, either through adding new supports or removing the existing ones. Participants with a stronger tendency to use subtractive transformations reported higher happiness scores. In addition, higher scores in intrinsic value preferences were correlated with higher levels of happiness. In Study 2, cuing minimalism or consumerism using pictures led to changes in materialistic values, motivation for social engagement, and reported happiness scores. These results imply that minimalism as an alternative lifestyle can contribute to social wellbeing and increased happiness. Limitations and implications for future studies are discussed.

The purpose of this study was to find concrete measures to improve the subjective health level, happiness and quality of life of the elderly according to economic level and to propose social and policy alternatives accordingly. As a research method, 63,929 elderly people aged 65 or older were surveyed using the Community Health Survey (Indicator Bank) _v09, and the frequency of health use by economic level, subjective health level, euphoria and quality of life Analysis and Chi square analysis and independent t-test. Multi variate logistic regression analysis was performed with subjective health level as a dependent variable and multiple linear regression analysis was performed to determine the factors affecting euphoria and quality of life. The results of the study are as follows. In the case of recipients, medical use was lower than that of non-recipients, lower education level, female age of 75 years or older, and less stress, In case of present or past recipients, the result of non - receipt increased as the subjective health level was worse, and the non - recipient had higher euphoria and quality of life. As a result, there is a need for alternatives to increase opportunities for medical use among the recipients, with particular attention being paid to women and elderly people over 75 years old. It is expected to be used as a basic data to effectively improve the health promotion, happiness and quality of life of the elderly people of low income group.
