With the increase of the elderly population, problem on social isolation and loneliness have grown in Korea. Elderly dwelling issues have also been gaining increased attention since dwelling environment is discussed in conjunction with elderly's health and life quality. In this study, the data was collected retrospectively of 350 elderlies who live as single households during 1 September, 2017 to 30 September to identify how to define and measure dwelling depression. The content validity and reliability were evaluated and the correlation between the depression and the dwelling satisfaction were compared. Lastly, a regression analysis on the classification of the dwelling depression was performed. The results show that depression appearing in elderly are more likely to experience a dwelling unsatisfaction. Our results contribute to an understanding and measurement of the dwelling depression which has not been sufficiently specified.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the residential location preference factors by households' characteristics in the case of Seoul metropolitan area households. The main results of this study are as follows. Firstly, residential location factors most preferred by Seoul metropolitan area households are accessibility of public transportation, followed by security and living environment. Therefore, we can see Seoul metropolitan area households prefer amenity and quality of life as residential location factors. Secondly, according to the results of AHP by age and household income, the residential location factors Seoul metropolitan area households prefer are different by age and household income. Thirdly, according to the results of comparative analysis between the case of Seoul metropolitan area and Daegu Gyeongbuk households, Seoul metropolitan area households more prefer safety and quality of life, on the other hand, Daegu Gyeongbuk households more prefer investment value of housing.

Urban area is being continuously grown traffic volume due to diverse economic activities. Especially, the traffic noise, which occurs on the road of passing by residential district, is dropping quality of life as negative element of obstructing sleep at night. This study analyzed relationship between the officially notified land price and the traffic noise in residential district by using the estimating equation of traffic noise and GIS. As a result, the officially notified land price on a parcel of residential district along the road was indicated to be higher than a parcel where is located in other place. Even traffic noise was indicated to be higher. Accordingly, a plan is judged to be necessarily arranged that can be made appraisal of the officially notified land price, which is reflected the convenience of life and the quality of life at the same time in consideration even of traffic noise together as element of appraisal given evaluating the officially notified land price in residential district where is located in the downtown.

손상함수란 건물, 차량, 농작물 등과 같은 피해대상물에 재난강도에 따른 취약도(vulnerability)를 정량화한 함수로, 재난리스크 모델에서 널리 사용되는 개념이다. 홍수재난에서 손상함수는 일반적으로 피해지역에서 조사된 경험적 피해자료(empirical data)를 활용하거나, 표준화된 피해대상물에 대한 손상성을 전문가의 의견(expert opinion)을 참고하여 개발된다. 이때, 취약도를 설명하는 설명변수는 일반적으로 침수심(inundation depth)이 사용되며, 그에 따른 취약도는 손상률(percent damage)로서 상대함수 형태가 일반적이다. 본 연구는 주거건물(residential building)에 대한 손상함수 개발을 위해 자연재난 손해사정 경력자(8인)를 대상으로 표준화된 주거건물(단독주택, 아파트, 연립/다세대주택)에 대해 침수에 따른 건물 손상성을 조사하였다. 주거건물 손상성을 설명하는 최대범위는 건물내부 바닥고를 기준으로 침수심 3m까지이며, 침수심 변화에 따른 손상성을 건물신축 공종에 따라 질의하고 이를 종합하였다. 조사과정은 (1) 표준건물에 대한 정의, (2) 공종별 침수에 따른 손상여부 질의, (3) 공종별 최대 손상률 평가 및 주요 피해내역 토의, (4) 공종별 침수심에 따른 손상률 평가, (5) 결과종합의 단계로 진행되었고, 이를 통해 주거건물 유형에 따른 손상함수를 개발할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 개발된 손상함수는 다양한 침수높이에서 주거건물에 대한 취약도를 설명하는 데 장점이 있으나, 그 결과는 향후 홍수피해지역을 대상으로 수집된 다양한 피해조사 결과와 비교하여 보완될 필요가 있다.

The worthness of life of an elderly person is a subjective thing that is based on the individual's sense of values, and it depends on what he or she pursues in life. Therefore, the quality of life is a relative concept and it varies according to individual tastes and changes of values resulted from changes of social framework. The purpose of this study is to furnish information about the basic plan for the increase of Q.O.L. There are three methods used in this study. First is to understand the structure and the factors related to Q.O.L by research and documents. Second, site survey and analysis of urban and rural areas, for example Seoul and Jochiwon, and third, study the condition of the old using SPSS. The result of study to enrich the Q.O.L of the old can be categorized into two ways. First, the old themselves has to satisfy the image of the old who has a high Q.O.L. Second, the community has to support the proper environment for the old to get worth of life.

With the increase of the elderly population, demand for improvement of quality of life and measurement of mental state has increased. However, much of the self-reported diagnosis does not reflect cognitive impairment. This study aims to measure the dwelling depression by applying K-HTP and verify the validity. 301 persons over 65 years old who live as single and couple households in Daejeon and surrounding districts were surveyed during 22 January to 2 February, 2018. The correlations between the dwelling depression and K-HTP are clarified and the validity was evaluated. The correlations between the geriatric dwelling depression index(GDDI) and the GDDI based on K-HTP(GDDI-K) are clarified and the accuracy was analyzed. The results showed that the K-HTP can be utilized to measure the dwelling depression. We suggested a new measurement tool and provide further benefits for researches on diagnoses using the projective method.

악취는 인간이 직접 후각으로 느끼는 환경오염의 지표로서 극히 낮은 농도에서도 피해를 유발하여 대기질 전반에 대한 불신을 초래하게 된다. 악취의 주요 발생원으로는 정유공장, 화학공장, 하수처리장, 분뇨 및 축산폐수처리장, 쓰레기 매립지 등으로 발생원이 매우 다양하고 여러 가지 복합된 화합물이 원인이 되어 악취를 유발시키는 것이 특징이다. 우리나라의 주거여건은 주변환경을 충분히 고려하지 못한 개발로 공업지역과 주거지역이 근접 또는 혼재하여 악취오염에 근본적으로 취약한 구조의 도시가 형성된 곳도 있다. (중략)
