시니어를 위한 메디컬 가상현실 서비스 개발을 목표로 하고 있으며, 시니어가 쉽고 안전하게 체험할 수 있는 가상현실 콘텐츠를 제작하는 것이 주된 목표이다. 본 연구의 최종 목표로는 체험에 집중하기 위한 환경을 조성하기 위해 안전시스템 구축 및 가족/친구와의 연결을 통한 소통 서비스를 개발한다. 시니어를 대상으로 가상현실 체험을 제공할 때 컨트롤러를 쥐고 상호작용을 해야하는 부분을 핸드트래킹 기술을 연구하여 컨트롤러 없이 물리적으로 양손을 자유롭게 하면서 피로감을 줄이는 것은 물론, 주변의 물건을 내려치거나 컨트롤러를 놓쳐 사고로 이어질 소지도 없애 체험에 집중하게 할 수 있는 환경을 제공하고 체험 중 신체에 이상현상이 나타날 경우 즉시 이를 알릴 수 있도록 콘텐츠 내에서 특정 제스쳐나 긴급 버튼을 통하여 체험시 발생할 돌발상황에 대한 대비를 위해 별도의 앱을 개발하고 체험과 상시 연결하여 체험중인 상황을 관제할 수 있도록 시스템을 구축하고, 알림을 통해 조기에 즉각 대처할 수 있도록 한다. 또한, 몸이 불편하거나 요양원 거주등으로 인해 사회적 단절의 해소를 위해 별도의 앱을 통해 체험중인 콘텐츠와 연결이 가능하도록 설계하고 상호간에 아바타를 통한 감정 표현 및 음성 채팅을 할 수 있게 하여 소통을 할 수 있는 서비스 개발하고자 한다.

Purpose: To identify factors influencing psychosocial adjustment in patients with surgical removal of benign breast tumor. Methods: With a survey design, data were collected using the Psychosocial Adjustment to Illness Scale-Self Report (PAIS-SR), Body Image Scale, Physical Discomfort Scale, and Family Support Scale with patients who had had surgical removal of a benign breast tumor from September to November 2017. Data were analysed with descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression. Results: The mean scores for physical discomfort, body image, family support, and psychosocial adjustment were $1.57{\pm}0.51$, $0.37{\pm}0.64$, $3.62{\pm}0.67$, and $4.00{\pm}0.45$, respectively. Family support, body image, physical discomfort, number of surgical removal of benign breast tumor (twice), and cancer insurance status (yes) were verified as factors influencing psychosocial adjustment. These factors accounted for 57.4% of psychosocial adjustment. Conclusion: In this study, family support, body image, and physical discomfort were identified as significant predictors of psychosocial adjustment. Therefore, this study can be used as fundamental data to develop nursing intervention strategies in order to increase psychosocial adjustment in patients with surgical removal of a benign breast tumor.

Purpose: Recently incidence of VDT syndrome has gradually increased as extensive use of computers. VDT syndrome reported by VDT workers include musculoskeletal disorder, neuropsychiatric disoders and eye symptoms such as eye strain, tired eyes, irritation and blurred vision. The environmental factors of VDT syndrome include electromagnetic waves, size, brightness and lighting of computer screen, height of a monitor and a worktable, working hours, kind of task, distance between screen and workers, indoor humidity and temperature, indoor air contamination and ventilation. In this study, we investigated the environmental factors related to body symptoms and health effects included in VDT syndrome. Methods: Study subjects were total 120 persons (54 male, 66 female) with age from 19 to 28. We surveyed the body symptoms and physical discomfort when doing an activity in a short distance such as reading book or paper, computer work. The questionnaire included main body symptoms, self-consciousness symptoms of eye, satisfaction of working environment, pain of the wrist when using keyboard and mouse. Results: Most of people (70%) felt physical pain from long time work of computer, paper, electrical apparatus. They mainly complained pain of neck and low back (57.1%), eye (45.2%) and head (31%). With the environmental factors, 78.3% of the subjects complaint pain of eye from inappropriate illumination. Most of the symptoms included 'eye fatigue'(38.3%), 'dryness of eye'(31.9%) and 'blurred vision'(23.7%). Subjects in this study complained discomfort of their chairs and most of them experienced pain in the wrist when using keyboard or mouse. Conclusions: When people use electrical apparatus or work with paper, people would get their eye fatigue and feeling of physical fatigue because of not harmonizing various environmental factors such as light, space, posture, worktable with theirselves. Therefore, workers should develop preventive method such as self-control of adequate break time to avoid fatigue while VDT work. Work environment should be changed to ergonomic design for optimal visual environment to prevent musculoskeletal disorder through constant research.

The subjects were 556 marriage immigrants residing in Seoul, Keong-gi, and Chung-cheong areas. 47.1% of the subjects showed $${\geq_-}16$$ of CES-D which is the cutting points on depression. The results from hierachical regression analysis indicated that family income(${\beta}=-.13$, p=.002) at the first demographic model and self-efficacy(${\beta}=-.13$, p<.001), family relationship(${\beta}=-.16$, p<.001), acculturation to Korean culture(${\beta}=-.08$, p=.05), acculturative stress(${\beta}=.31$, p<.001), and mal-physical health(${\beta}=.18$, p<.001) at the final model affected female marriage immigrants' depression. The explanatory power of these variables was 37.1%. Based on these results, social services and policies for the prevention of depression among female marriage immigrants were discussed.
