The present study set out to explore the acculturative stress and mental health(depression) of Korean women living in Britain according to socio-demographic factors, social relations and social supports level. 152 Korean women's data were collected and analyzed with frequency, correlation, ANOVA. Analysis revealed that women's acculturative stress and depression level was 2.50(moderate) and 1.66(slightly low) respectively. Acculturative stress level showed correlation with depression level. Among demographic variables, acculturative stress was significantly different from residence period in Britain, marriage and economic state and the level of depression was also different from job and economic state. The group which has frequent relationships with British and high level of social supports showed low acculturative stress. The group has high level of social supports also showed low depression. These findings highlight the importance of concerns and interventions about acculturation and mental health of Korean immigrant women and community services for the new immigrant women to improve their acculturation and mental health.

This study conducts empirical research on gender differentials of economic resources in old age. The economic resources are assessed by the presence of independent income source and the amount of total income. The study, based on nation-wide survey of the elderly, examines the effects of individual level variables and household level ones. Also, it compares such effects between male and female elderly. The analysis shows that several variables have gender specific effects. Among them, particularly interesting and important are marital status and coresidence with children. The positive effect of having spouse is greater among female elderly than among male elderly. Also, while coresidence with children among male elderly has insignificant or slightly positive relation to their own economic resources, it has a negative relation among female elderly. These results indicate that female elderly are dependent on their husbands and children. The study suggests that future research on the elderly incorporate gender differentials into models attempting to capture diversity within the elderly population.

다원분할표에서 범주들의 대응관계를 그래프적으로 보여주는 다중대응분석(multiple correspondence analysis)은 주결여성(principal inertia)이 총결여성(total inertia)에서 차지하는 비율이 전반적으로 낮아 설명력(goodness-of-fit)이 낮은 2차원의 대응분석그림을 얻게 된다. 이를 극복하기 위해 Benzecri의 공식을 사용하면 낮은 주결여성을 높이고 새로운 2차원 대응분석그림을 얻을 수 있다. 그러나 이 새로운 대응분석그림도 범주들의 대응관계를 명확히 보여주지는 못한다(Greenacre and Blasius, 1994, chapter 10). 앤드류 플롯(Andrews plot)을 이용하여 범주들의 군집화(clustering)로 다중대응분석을 재해석 하고자 하나 범주의 수가 많은 경우 해석상 어려움이 따른다. 본 소고에서 이와 같은 경우 K-평균 군집분석을 활용하여 다중대응분석의 해석을 용이하게 하고자 한다.

OECD 국가들과 마찬가지로 한국의 청년실업문제는 매우 심각하다. 높은 청년실업문제는 경제성장에 영향을 미칠 뿐만 아니라 출산, 범죄 등의 심각한 사회적 문제를 초래할 수 있다. 창업은 단순히 청년들의 단기적 직업을 제공할 뿐만 아니라 미래 사회가 필요로 하는 인적자원을 개발시키는 역할을 담당하고 있다. 즉, 청년층인 대학생들의 창업을 북돋울 수 있는 방안과 연관된 연구는 매우 중요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 대학생의 기업가정신이 창업동기에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 이들 관계에서조절초점성향의 조절효과를 검증하는 것이다. 본 연구를 위해 강원지역 대학생들을 대상으로 한 342부의 설문지가 최종분석에 사용되었다. 연구 분석을 통해 확인된 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 대학생의 기업가정신은 창업의도에 영향을 미칠 것이라는 가설을 설정했으며 실증연구에서 이를 확인할 수 있었다. 둘째, 기업가 정신이 창업의도에 미치는 영향에 있어서 성별의 조절효과를 확인하였다. 기업가정신이 남녀 모두에 있어 창업의도에 정(+)의 상관관계를 가지며 그 영향력은 남성에 비해 여성이 더 크다는 것을 확인하였다. 셋째, 대학생의 촉진초점이 남녀 모두에 있어서 창업의도에 정(+)의 상관관계를 가지며 그 영향력은 남성에 비해 여성이 크다는 것을 확인하였다.

This study was peformed to assess the relationships among bone mineral density (BMD), Physiological characteristics and lifestyle factors in 61 premenopausal working women aged 30∼49 y in Busan. The BMDs of the lumbar spines (Ll∼L4), femoral necks (FN), ward's triangles (WT) and trochanters (TC) were measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. Data for physiological characteristics and physical activity was assessed by questionnaire and usual intakes of coffee, green tea, alcohol, Coca cola by food frequency questionnaire. The BMDs of L14, FN, WT and TC were 1.02 g/$\textrm{cm}^2$, 0.76 g/$\textrm{cm}^2$,0.69 g/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 0.66 g/$\textrm{cm}^2$respectively The BMD of FN was assessed as osteopenia by T-score. The BMD of WT was positively correlated with age of monarch (p<0.05) and the BMD of Ll4 was positively correlated with delivery number (p<0.05). The BMD of Ll4 was positively correlated with hours of outdoor activity per weekend and week (p<0.05, p<0.05). The BMDs of FN and WT (p<0.05, p<0.05) were positively correlated with intake of green tea per month and the BMD of FN (p<0.05) was positively correlated with intake of wine per month. But the BMD of Ll (p<0.05) was negatively correlated with intake of Coca cola per month. So nutritional education for increasing hours of outdoor activity and decreasing intake frequency of beverage contributing to diminishment of bone mineral density is needed for premenopausal working women to prevent osteoporosis.

The purpose of this study was to investigate correlation between BBS(Berg balance scale), SPPB(short physical performance battery,) TUG(timed up and go) and COP(center of pressure) during quiet standing in elderly women. Ten elderly women aged 65 to 75 years participated in this study. Subjects were measured physical functional test and they were stood in quiet stance on force platform positioned in one of three different fixed positions(flat, downward, upward). The COP range and mean velocity data were calculated using an experimental setup with the ground reaction force system. COP range and mean velocity of AP direction showed significant more expanded than ML direction of all slope types. Physical performance scores were significant correlated between COP range and mean velocity according to surface slopes. After all elderly women get high score of physical performance that brought decreased on one's COP range and mean velocity. This study suggests that clinical therapist have application to COP parameters as well as BBS, SPPB, TUG of balance assessment in elderly women.

The multicultural family support project provides support services to female marriage immigrants to promote their settlement in Korea and their adaptation to marital life. This study thus investigated whether utilization of such support services is indeed related to positive changes perceived among these female marriage immigrants, and these changes, in turn, contribute to less marital conflict, marital well-being, and hope. Data were drawn from a self-administered questionnaire study in which 558 female marriage immigrants participated through the 36 centers across the nation that provided multicultural family support services based on cultural relativism and a strengths perspective. Results of structural equation modeling analyses revealed that utilization of support services, as predicted, contributed to positive changes, and such changes, in turn, were directly related to less marital conflict, higher marital well-being, and hope. As expected, marital conflict was negatively associated with marital well-being, which, in turn, promoted hope. Thus, through these paths positive changes also contributed positively to both marital well-being and hope. However, when the effects of length of residence in Korea and an ability to command Korean language were controlled for, a positive significant relationship between service utilization and marital conflict was revealed. Therefore this paper discussed the ways in which positive functions of such service utilization can be strengthened while at the same time actively addressing the dysfunctional components of such support services.

The recent domestic violence research has emphasized an integrated approach to wife battering and child abuse to overcome separated understanding and problem-solving alternatives of the two phenomena in the past. This phenomenological study is designed to understand struggles and dilemmas of battered women and their children related to their surviving and coping with domestic violence in a mother-child relationship. In-depth interviews were conducted with ten battered women who have children and reside in shelters in Seoul and Anyang, and were analyzed by Atlas.ti(a qualitative software program) to maximize the efficiency of data analysis. Domestic violence can be transformed into and integrated with child abuse anytime, so battered women and their children share their crises and challenges related to motherliness and filial love. However, the mutual, existential meaning embedded in the mother-child relationship can be the most important sources to mobilize their life energy and resilience in their copping efforts. The social work interventions for battered women and their children should be integrated with a premise of deep understanding of the complex realities of domestic violence victims.
