This study is to propose an acceptance model that explains the use of telemedicine effects for chronic disease. For this purpose, the effect factors and variables for Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) were investigated through a structural equation model by performing a sample survey for 210 senior patients who are under treatment with telemedicine in Kangwon area in 2013. The findings from the results are as follows: 1) perceived usefulness and perceived easy of use influence the intent to use telemedicine; 2) open-minded patients group is more positive to the easy of use and usefulness for the telemedicine; 3) it matches with the previous research that shows the trust in telemedicine system is affected by the experience for practical use of information; 4) it is known that the external control factors for health affect perceived usefulness positively.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of subjective factors (figure recognition and stress) and objective factors (blood biochemical parameters) on body mass index by gender difference in Korean adults. This study analyzed 3,343 subjects older than 20 years according to gender using the Sixth Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database. Specifically, male subjects had higher body mass index than female subjects (p < .001) and were more frequent in the obese group. Female subjects had higher stress and platelet score than male subjects (p < .001). Male subjects had significantly higher white blood cell counts (p < .001). The factors affecting the occurrence of obesity by gender difference was highly associated with subjective figure recognition (95% CI = 0.026~0.045, p < .001), stress (95% CI = 0.487~0.925, p = .015) and white blood count (95% CI = 1.232~1.392, p < .001) in females. These findings demonstrate a gender-specific difference in recognizing subjective factors and especially the objective factors of white blood cells and platelets affecting obesity. These results can be used for obesity education or fundamental data for establishing a nursing arrangement program for Korean adults.
