Recently, problems regarding marital adjustment of cancer patients are recognized as serious matter of concern for it had been reported that these issues have severe negative effects on relationship stability within marriage. It is noteworthy how marital adjustment is found to be critical for the cancer patient's mental stability, healing process and chances of survival as reported in the research. Thus, the ultimate goal of this research is to contribute to improvement of the stable relationship and also to formulate the social service related strategy for marriage adjustment for married cancer patient married couples in Korea. Actor and Partner Interdependence Model was formed in order to observe how the communication of the married couple affects marital adjustment and how this has an actor effect as well as partner effect. In order to authenticate this research model, dyadic data which sample the cancer patient and the spouse as a pair. Survey was conducted as the cancer patients who had been diagnosed with cancer and their respective spouses. The survey was taken from 160 married couples which totals to 320 people all together. Results indicated the cancer patient and the spouse have a significant relationship in marital adjustment. Through this, it had been concluded that marital adjustment is not separated but co-dependent with dynamic relationship. And the mutual constructive communication had proven to have a significant positive effect on one's marital adjustment. In demand-withdrawal communication, its negative effect on the self effect was found to be significant in both the patient and the spouse to both of their marital adjustment. Mutual avoidance communication had shown to only cause significant negative effect on self effect to the patient. In verifying the partner effect, significant negative effect was caused by patient's demand-withdrawal communication in partner effect on the spouse's marital adjustment. The results of this study are discussed in term of their implications for clinical interventions for the betterment of marital adjustment among cancer patients and their spouses. The suggestions for future research are discussed also.

This study is to find social welfare practices that married women migrant can provide to them in order to relieve the stress of cultural differences and enjoy a good family life. Results,First, action plans to overcome intercultural differences are needed. To overcome effective cross-cultural differences, interventions and goals are set for culturally diverse clients that match their racial, cultural, ethnic, gender and sexual orientation.Second, it is necessary to cultivate professional education personnel. In order to train professionals, cultural diversity should be addressed in existing social welfare courses.Third, the related laws need to be rearranged. The Multicultural Family Support Act continues to emerge as a need for supplementation, including the understanding of Korean family culture and the lack of counseling for immigrant women.As a result, married women immigrants recognize that Korean life is different from their own in many aspects of their daily lives, so they endeavor to have a lot of patience and high level of effort in the adaptation process. Therefore, there is a need for a social welfare practice that can support this.

The purpose of this study was to assess the vulnerability of forest ecosystem to climate change in South Korea using socio-environmental indicators and the results of two vegetation models named as Hydrological and Thermal Analogy Group(HyTAG), and MAPSS-Century 1(MC1). The changing frequency and direction of biome types estimated by HyTAG model was used for quantifying sensitivity and adaptive capacity of forest distribution. Similarly, the variation and changing tendency of net primary production and soil carbon storage estimated by MC1 model was used for quantifying sensitivity and adaptive capacity of forest function. As socio-environmental indicators, many statistical data such as financial autonomy rate and the number of forestry officer was prepared. All indicators were standardized, and then calculated using the vulnerability assessment equation. The period of vulnerability assessment was divided into the past(1971-2000) and the future(2021-2050). To understand what policy has a priority to climate change, distribution maps of each indicators was depicted and the vulnerability results were compared among administrative districts. Evident differences could be found in entire study area. These differences were mostly derived from regionalspecific adaptive capacity. The result and methodology of this study would be helpful for the development of decision-making supporting system and policy making in forest management with respect to climate change.

고령화사회(aging society)에서 매우 빠른 속도로 고령사회(aged society)에 다가가고 있는 우리나라는 노인에 대한 개념을 새롭게 재정비하고 장수고령사회에 대비한 새로운 문화를 창출하여야 할 때이다. 노화란 개념에 대해서도 불가피하고 비가역적인 생체의 변화를 통한 죽음에 이르는 도정이라는 결정론적 시각을 불식하고, 노화현상은 생명체의 생존을 위한 적응적 반응성 변화라는 사실을 분명하게 하고, 그러한 변화의 요인이 제어가 가능한 생체의 변화임을 인식하여 노화 및 노인 문제에 대하여 새롭게 대처하여야 할 필요가 대두되고 있다. 아울러 노화현상에 대한 새로운 가설인 노화대문설(Gate theory of aging)의 기본을 설명하고 이를 바탕으로 한 기능적 장수(functional longevity)의 개념을 정리해본다.

기후변화 대응은 온실가스 배출의 감축 및 흡수원을 확대하는 완화(mitigation)와 기후변화로 인한 영향과 취약성을 평가하여 피해를 최소화하는 적응(adaptation)이 상호 균형을 이루어야 한다. 지금까지 우리나라를 포함한 국제사회는 대부분 완화를 위해 노력해 왔지만 최근에 들어 완화만으로는 기후변화의 영향을 회피하기 어렵다는 사실이 인식되면서 적응 연구가 다양하게 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 상황 가운데 적응 계획의 실현화를 위해서 기후변화의 불확실성을 고려한 의사 결정에 관한 연구가 반드시 뒷받침 되어야 한다. 기존의 일반적인 의사결정은 다양한 미래 시나리오들 하에 가장 높은 효용을 가져오는 최적(Optimal)의 대안을 채택하는 고전적 결정분석(Classical Decision Analysis)의 프레임을 사용하였다. 그러나 기후변화로 인해 미래 기후 예측 시나리오의 불확실성이 증대되면서 최근에는 최적의 대안을 선정하는 것에 대한 의문이 제기되며 새로운 기법에 대한 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구는 기후변화의 불확실성을 고려하기 위한 새로운 의사결정 기법인 로버스트 의사결정(Robust Decision Making, RDM)을 실제유역의 적용을 통해 제안하고자 한다. 로버스트 의사결정은 RAND에서 개발한 것으로 최적의 대안을 채택하는 것 대신 모든 가능한 시나리오 가운데 가장 안정적인 전략을 채택한다는 것에서 기존의 의사결정 체계와 차이가 있다. 연구의 적용은 안동-임하댐 유역을 대상으로 온실 가스 배출 시나리오 A1B, A2, B1시나리오에 대해 15개의 GCMs에서 산출된 기후자료를 기반으로 기후변화의 시나리오를 작성하였으며, 다양한 측면의 대안을 설정하여 용수공급량을 평가하였다. 연구의 결과로 산정될 각 대안 별 안정적인 정도와 취약한 시나리오에 대한 정보는 기후변화의 불확실성을 전제한 의사결정을 할 때 로버스트 의사결정이 갖는 장점이 될 수 있다.
