The urban has been improved houses and facilities as accelerating industry and society, while the rural area was inferior to the city. Furthermore, there was not a maintenance in time as ageing, and did not expect to rebuilding of using proper techniques and materials for financial reasons. This study find a way to make a revitalizing plan for appropriate real state. For this, perform a current status survey that 900 rural residences of 36 rural villages in Chungcheong area. As a result, Korean traditional structure is a half in residential type, and has poor residential conditions by comparison with western pattern. The structural type comprises two type that a pure structure and a mixed structure, and Korean traditional structure is a mixed structure more than a pure structure. It is considered continuous changes by a resident due to a pure structure was not satisfy various functions. It need appropriate plan to improve a rural residence for each characteristics.

The purpose of the current study was to examine the effect of psychological factors on caregiver burden and depression among Korean spousal caregivers. 142 spousal caregivers (89 wives, 52 husbands) in Seoul and Incheon City were surveyed to determine the influence of objective factors of the care recipient, demographic of the caregiver, personality dimensions of extroversion and neuroticism of caregiver, social support, and pre-caregiving marital satisfaction on caregiver burden and depression of spousal caregivers. Hierarchical regression was used to determine the influence of the various factors on caregiver burden and depression. Finding suggest that care recipient's activities of daily living(ADL) and caregiver neuroticism predicted caregiver burden, whereas pre-caregiving martial satisfaction and caregiver neuroticism predicted depression. In particular, psychological factors were better predictors of caregiver burden and depression compared with objective factors. Based on the results, the implications, interventions, limitations and future directions for research were discussed about the psychological factors on spousal caregiving.

This study examined how middle-aged and elderly persons allocated their time in overall perspective and whether the patterns were varied by age, socio-demographic factors, and the interaction effect between them. This study analyzed the 2009 Time Use Survey Data (17,096 time-diaries of people aged 45 or more) of the National Statistical Office using tobit regression model. The main results are as follows. First, middle-aged and elderly people gradually decreased paid work times. Second, the patterns of time allocation were varied by age, gender, education level, marital status and household type(Agricultural/non-agricultural). Third, there were interaction effects between age and the socio-demographic factors on paid work time and leisure time. Highly educated or urban persons were likely to have less time in paid work less than other groups with increasing age. And females were likely to have less time in domestic labor and care work than males with increasing age. But they had more time in social and economic productive activities than males. Based on these findings, this study suggests comprehensive approach to analyze the time use of elderly beyond economic working time or leisure time. To establish effective ageing society policy, it is necessary to consider the time allocation of elderly which divided into the social stratification.

인공함양 특성평가를 위한 동위원소기술을 적용하기 위한 연구지역으로 영남내륙권의 고령군과 달성군의 경계에 위치한 낙동강변의 강변여과수 개발지역을 선정하였으며, 동위원소기술적용을 위하여 연구지역내에 위치한 강변여과수 개발을 위한 양수정과 주변공들 및 지표수들에 대한 시료채취를 수행하였다. 관측공 중 한 공에 대하여는 다중패커시스템 (Multi-packer system)을 활용하여 심도별 변화를 살펴보았다. 연구지역내 물시료들에 대한 현재까지의 산소와 수소 동위원소 및 삼중수소 함량 분석결과는 다중패커설치공 및 일반 관측공과 지표수들간에 서로 중첩되어 구분이 어렵다. 스트론튬 동위원소비는 양수정 및 그 인접공의 시료들과 강변에서 인접한 공의 시료들간에 차이는 있으나 명확하지는 않다. 질소동위원소 분석결과를 살펴보면 전반적으로 화학비료로나 토양내의 유기물로부터 유래한 것으로 해석할 수 있다. 이처럼 현재까지의 기초분석 결과는 자연수 시료들에 적용된 다양한 동위원소값들이 서로 유사한 값들을 보여서 동위원소 특성을 지하수 유동특성이나 함양특성을 해석하기 위한 추적자로 이용하는데 어려움이 있을 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 특정한 시기의 강우사건에 대해 강수, 낙동강물, 양수정 및 일련의 주변공과 다중패커시스템이 설치된 공의 심도별 구간 등에 대해 현재보다 보다 집중적이고 체계적인 시료채취가 시도되어지거나 방사성동위원소를 이용한 추적자 시험이 병행되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

The purpose of this study was to compare the life satisfaction of smokers and non - smokers among rural elderly people and to provide a balanced understanding of smoking rather than prejudice about smoking. To do this, we selected 10 S-eup sites as a sample and conducted a life satisfaction survey of 100 smokers and 100 nonsmokers among the elderly aged 65 years and over, and compared the differences in psychological life satisfaction among these groups. The results showed that smokers were significantly more satisfied with mental life satisfaction, enjoyment of life, participation in social activities and loneliness than non - smokers. These results suggest that elderly people aged 65 and over in rural areas are exposed to smoking habits for at least 3,40 years. The results of this study are expected to help the elderly living in aging society to understand the cigarette smokes correctly. In the future study, Research is expected to be active.

The purpose of this study is to examine that basic pension entitlement affects the subjective well-being(SWB) of the elderly. For controlling unobserved heterogeneity, we used fixed effects model for longitudinal data. The data used for this study is KLoSA from 2006 to 2016. The research results are as follows. SWB of non-basic pensioners was higher than for basic pension beneficiaries. Second, when the demographic variables were controlled, SWB of the basic pension recipients was higher then that of non-beneficiaries. Third, the factors affecting SWB were economic satisfaction, marital status, family financial support, employment status, subjective health status, daily life restrictions, gender, and age. Fourth, the effect of basic pension on SWB was positive at the lowest income quartile. The results of this study shows that the basic pension system has a positive effect on the SWB of elderly despite the low benefit level. Therefore, it is necessary to expand the basic pension system to solve poverty problems and improve the quality of life for the aged. Also, various aspects of social support for the low-income vulnerable elderly are needed. Lastly, It was suggested that the benefit level of the basic pension should be raised to have a substantial effect on the low-income class, which is a key policy subject.

Due to the rapid development of medical information, vast amounts of medical data are accumulating, and such medical data is highly likely to be used as an important data for solving the aging population and the rapid rise in medical cost. Especially in Korea, there are resident registration numbers and computerized usage data for all citizens, so it can be superior to other countries in terms of medical infrastructure that can utilize big data. The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors affecting the mortality and death rate of Gangwon using the Big Data and the National Statistical Office data centered on Kangwon province. As a result of analysis, major variables related to the mortality rate of Gangwon were hospital infrastructure utilization rate, income level, aging population and population density. Therefore, inequalities due to income disparities and insufficient local medical infrastructures were affecting the local mortality rate, and policy support was needed to improve the local hospital infrastructure and income level. The results of this study were meaningful in that medical big data were used to analyze the deaths of people in Gangwon, and the causes of the deaths were analyzed through various social indicators and correlation analysis.

This study examines applying the elderly poverty labor hypothesis and skill-biased technological change hypothesis to labor force participation rate(LFPR) of older males in Korea. These hypotheses have hardly been examined on the this group. The analysis is based on the data "Summary of economically active population($1965{\sim}2007$)", "Population projection($1965{\sim}2007$)", "Report on wage structure survey($1993{\sim}2005$)" and "Korea Labor and Income Panel Study($1998{\sim}2006$)". The method employed for this study is logistic regression. The main results from this analysis are summarized in five points. Firstly, Korean older males' LFPR have been increasing since 1965 when industrialization was expanding at full steam. This trend has been different from the decreasing trend of industrialized countries. The second finding is that poor older males' LFPR is, on the average, 5.2% higher than that of non-poor older males from 1998 to 2005. The third result is that the non-elderly man has been increasingly positioned at higher grade occupations, while the elderly man has been held at lower grade occupations. The fourth is that labor demand for highly educated workers has exceeded the increased labor supply of the group, while the demand for low educated workers has decreased far beyond the declined labor supply. As a result, college premium has increased from 139% in 1993 to 157.8% in 2005. The final main implication of this study is that the industrialization theory and modernization hypothesis still holds for the LFPR of Korean older males. However, the elderly affluence hypothesis of the LFPR of older males are hardly persuasive in explaining Korean phenomenon. Especially, we find that the elderly poverty is the main mechanism in determining the Korean LFPR in old ages. This supports the elderly poverty labor hypothesis presented in this study. Skill-biased technological change hypothesis partially explains the LFPR of older man. However, we believe that other factors; human capital specially high school education rather than university education and skill required in less skill biased occupations or the poverty; also have taken effect.
