The purpose of this study is to understand differences in cognitive function and the instrumental activities of daily living depending on whether elderly women living alone in Korea have depression and to determine the correlation between variables. The data were collected from April 2011 to April 2012 with a total of 1,426 women interviewed using a structured questionnaire. Based on examining the correlation between variables, a weak inverse correlation was shown between depression and cognitive function(r=-.208, p<.001), between cognitive function and the instrumental activities of daily living(r=-.256, p<.001), and a weak positive correlation was shown between depression and instrumental activities of daily living(r=.222, p<.001). According to these results, We should pay attention to come up with ways to promote and maintain the mental health of elderly women so that depression level can be reduced through the improvement of cognitive function and social activity level.

This study was carried out to evaluate the efficacy of Virtual Reality(VR) program on recovery of functional in Stroke through systematic literature review and meta-analysis. The following databases were used to search the literature: RISS, KISS, KMbase. Keywords included 'stroke', 'CVA' 'virtual reality', 'rehabilitation', 'virtual reality program' and the evaluated articles were published from 2009 to November 2018. The statistical was used R program, the effect size of upper limb, balance and ADL were calculated by random-effects model. As a result, 9 RCT studies were meta-analyzed and were evaluated for the risk of bias by the RoB of Cochrane Collaboration; the overall risk of bias was low. The effect sizes of VR program was balance(g=.77), ADL(g=.80) as indicated by a "large effect size". Therefore, VR program is large effective in reducing balance and ADL in strokes. It is necessary to develop and apply a virtual reality-based program using more efficient program development.

This study analyzed the effects of participating in wholeness programs according to virtual reality(VR) viewing status on the cognitive function, depression and activities of daily living of elderly with dementia. The subjects were 8 elderly persons aged 75 years or older who were diagnosed with dementia by a neurologist who were divided into an experimental group of 4 subjects that participated in a wholeness program after 15 minutes of VR viewing and a control group of 4 subjects that participated in a wholeness program without viewing VR. Data were collected through pre and post test, and analyzed in the wholeness program conducted at K1 and K2 Senior Welfare Centers in Seoul from March 6 to April 14, 2017, twice every week for 60 minutes. As a result, there was no effect on cognitive function and activities of daily living, but there was a significant difference in depression, and it was confirmed that wholeness program activity after VR watching decreased depression of elderly with dementia.

This study interpreted film-creators' information behavior by reconstructing information behavior in the process of film-planning using human information behavior. Film creators exchange, collect, and analyze information through channels in the information environment so called "the small world." After these processes, they strategically express this information by creating a film. This study concludes that the purpose of film-creating activity and that of everyday life information seeking are intertwined and that co-communication is the most important information channel and information source.

현대 사회의 산업화 추세로 인해 여성 노동의 증가및 여성의 사회 활동 범위가 확대 됨에 따라서 임산부 여성도 일반인과 같이 일상적인 생활을 영위하는데 부담이 가지지 않도록 적절한 연구가 필요하게 되었다. 그러나 지금까지의 여성 의복에 관한 연구 방향은 정상 체형의 중년, 장년, 노년을 중심으로 이루어졌을 뿐 임신 시기가 한정되고 한정된 시간속의 체형 변화가 급격하기 때문인지 만족스러운 규격 치수와 등급 구별이 마련되어 있는 자료가 미미하다. 이에 임신기 여성중 만삭에 가까운 9개월된 여성의 체형을 body로 만들어 파악한 다음 pattern을 제시하여 좀 더 활동적이고 쾌적한 생활에 도움이 되고자 한다.

This study is to analyze the influence of the digital divide on the digital daily life of the elderly. Adaptation tendencies for digital divide were measured and classified into groups for elderly people over 60 years old. And digital communication skills, digital confidence, digital self-control, and digital life satisfaction were measured. The research model used a cross over design model and a dual mediation model. As a result of the study, first, it was found that a group with high adaptive accessibility to the digital divide had a positive effect on the overall digital daily life. Second, a group with high adaptive literacy to the digital divide had a positive effect on the digital self-control. Third, digital communication skill has a positive effect on digital life satisfaction, and digital confidence and digital self-control play a mediating role. Based on these findings, we discussed strategies to overcome the digital divide in old age.

급격한 고령화 시대에 노년층의 사회참여욕구가 확대되고 있으나 어떻게 해야 하는지를 모르고 있어 지역사회의 사회참여 프로그램에 대한 인지도가 매우 낮고 제도나 프로그램에 대한 접근성이 제한적인 실정이다. 가족기능이 해체된 노인을 대상으로 노후 생활 지원욕구에 발맞춰 경제적지원, 취업지원, 의료지원, 여가지원 등 각종 복지 서비스를 제공함으로써 보편적이고 일상적인 생활을 영위하도록 지원하고자 많은 노력을 하고는 있으나 이를 체계적으로 실시할 수 있는 모델이 부족한 것이 현실이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 노인들의 역할 및 지위 상실로 인하여 가정에서 고립된 생활을 하는 노인을 대상으로 복지 전문가가 현장에서 비교적 손쉽게 적용할 수 있는 체계화된 모델을 제안함으로 생활스트레스 감소, 인지기능 향상, 우울증 감소, 생활만족도를 향상시키고 노인여가 문화에 대한 건전성 확산을 통해 건강한 노후생활을 영위하게 하며 문화생활 지원을 통해 사회적 비용 부담 경감을 도모함과 동시에 자존감의 고취 및 자율성을 획득하고 자아성취감과 만족감을 느끼게 하는데 있다.
