The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of organizational culture types (rational culture, developmental culture, group culture, and hierarchical culture) on Community-Centered Social Inclusion Orientation(COSI) among social service organizations for people with disabilities. More specifically, this study developed and empirically tested two theoretical models where each of organizational culture types were hypothesized to affect COSI either directly or indirectly through market orientation. For data collection, self-administered type questionnaires were mailed to 416 social service organizations for people with disabilities across the nation and 293 responded (response rate: 70.4%) from June 1 to September 22, 2006. For analysis, however, only 263 respondents were used, excluding Independent living centers due to their small size and short history. Structural Equation Modeling was employed for analysis and Full Information Maximum Likelihood was used for estimation. Findings indicated that market orientation had a significant effect on COSI. In addition, developmental culture and hierarchical culture were found to affect COSI directly while rational culture and group culture were found to affect COSI indirectly through market orientation. These findings imply that market orientation needs to be emphasized as a strategy in order to enhance social inclusion orientation for those organizations. Given that all the four types of organizational culture have direct or indirect impacts on COSI, those organizations are also advised to develop the four types of organizational culture harmoniously rather than one single type of organizational culture.

The emergence of new diseases such as the Covid 19 pandemic that occurs in the 21st century and the occurrence of health abnormalities according to the busy daily life of modern people are increasing. Accordingly, the importance of health care management and data-based health management is being highlighted, and in particular, interest in personal health management data based on personal health care data of patients is rapidly increasing. In this study, to solve the difficult problems of personal health management, we developed a personal health care platform incorporating IT for self-diagnosis and solution and developed an application that measures bio-signals generated in the human body and transmits them to the platform. A health management system was established. Through this, not only the health care of modern people, but also the psychological and emotional care support needs through psychological and emotional monitoring of the developmentally disabled and the vulnerable who have difficulty in expressing their opinions are to be addressed. In addition, the overall health and living environment data of the individual was integrated to develop an optimized medical and health management service for the individual.

정보통신의 발달은 사람들의 생활양식을 변화시키고 있지만 정보와 환경의 급속한 발전에도 불구하고 장애인, 노인 등은 정보화 혜택을 제대로 받지 못하여 소외되고 있다. 전 세계에서는 이러한 문제를 직시하고 정보격차를 좁히기 위한 한 방안으로 웹 접근성의 문제를 제기했고 꾸준히 해결점을 찾고 있지만 우리나라의 경우 이에 대한 연구 노력은 부족한 실정에 있다. 본 연구에서는 두 가지의 웹 접근성 평가도구를 선정하여 사이버대학 웹 사이트를 중심으로 웹 접근성을 평가해 보고 그 평가도구를 비교 분석함으로써 개선방안을 제시하였다.

치료레크리에이션은 사회에 있는 많은 사람들이 그 대상이 될 수 있다. 이러한 치료레크리에이션 서비스대상은 특수대상과 일반대상으로 구분된다. 한국치료레크리에이션협회에서 실시하고 있는 대상에서 특수대상으로는 발달장애아동, 물질중독청소년, 가출청소년, 정신장애인, 뇌졸중노인, 치매노인, 장애노인 등이고 일반대상으로는 인터넷 중독성향 청소년, 직장인, 일반인가족, 갱년기 주부, 건강노인, 건강노인부부 등이다. 한편, 우리나라에서는 급속한 고령화로 인하여 가족과 사회의 보호를 필요로 하는 의존적 노인들이 점차 증가하고 있다. 특히 보호의 필요성이 가장 높다고 할 수 있는 치매노인의 절대수가 증가할 것으로 예상된다. 그러나 현대화, 산업화에 의해서 발생하는 핵가족화, 여성의 사회참여 증가 등으로 가족의 노부모 부양기능은 급격히 약화되고 있다. 이에 따라 이들의 의료 및 사회적 보호문제는 노인복지제도의 주요한 과제로 등장하게 되었다. 따라서 본(本) 고(稿)에서는 노인복지제도의 향상의 일환으로 노인을 위한 치료레크리에이션의 실제 활동 프로그램을 제안해보도록 하고자 한다.

The number of the disabled person had been increased for the industrial accident and the environmental pollution. Especially, developmental disability has the high prevalence rate between 5% and 10% of the whole children. The children with a developmental disability can be treated by the physical therapy, the occupational therapy, the psychology therapy, speech therapy, and art therapy. Visual preception which is function to recognize the external environment through the optic organ could be related to most behaviors on the everyday life. But because the children with disability could not develop the visual-preception enough, they came to have difficulties in executing daily life project. For this reason, it is most important to understand the estimation and the cure on the visual-preception in the pediatric occupational therapy. To improve the visual-preception power, we have many kind of methods including sensory integration, training program for the visual-perception and art-craft program. Particularly, the art-craft which is the representative activity for making something by hands, can be applied to anyone. As the study on the brain has been activated, it was proved that handicraft actives could have an good effect on the brain function and using brain. When the fine motor exercise and more delicate and accurate motion were carried, these motions need the essential help of the visual-perception. So it could be expected that using the repetitive hand function by art-craft makes the brain function improve, when a activity that needs a fine motor exercise and more delicate, accurate motion was carried, It also indicates that the art-craft program has a clear treatment value. Though the intervention between visual-perception development and visual-perception disability have a majority in the field of occupational therapy, there is a few study yet. Therefore, this study tried to look back on the necessity of applying the art-craft program to the children with disability as the prestudy for preliminary validity of the master's thesis.

Alternative computer access devices are one of the ways for the physically disabled to meet their desire to participate in social activities. Most of these devices provide access to computers by using their feet or heads. However, it is not easy to control the mouse by using their feet, head, etc. with physical disabilities. In this paper, we propose a computer access system for the physically disabled. The proposed system can move the mouse only by the user's gaze using the eye-tracking technology. The mouse can be clicked through the external button which is relatively easy to press, and the character can be inputted easily and quickly through the voice recognition. It also provides detailed functions such as mouse right-click, double-click, drag function, on-screen keyboard function, internet function, scroll function, etc.

It is very important for rehabilitation to deal with psychological aspects of persons with disabilities, as well as efforts improving the institutional and environmental conditions. A majority of persons with severe disabilities in the situation of Korea have difficulty in having and maintaining a job. Work should and would be a source of self-respect and material well-being in this modern society. Therefore, Vocational rehabilitation services are measures in restoration of family functions and social participation of persons with disabilities. This study aims at investigating linguistic characteristics and the validity of constructional concepts of picture interest test Inventories that have been utilized for the segregated groups of people such as persons with developmental disabilities. Picture interest test inventories seemed to be valid for measuring psychological traits and characteristics of people with mental retardation, and this finding can be extended to the group of other developmental disabilities, such as learning disabilities and mild/moderate behavioral deficits. The Holland classification system seemed to be best fitted for developing a comprehensive and accurate vocational interest inventory.
