The purpose of this study is to prepare basic data for establishing a mid-to long-term comprehensive development plan for Gangdong-gu libraries by analyzing the results of a perception survey conducted on local residents, librarians and operators. To achieve the research purpose, a survey was conducted targeting 1,224 library users and non-users in Gangdong-gu. To collect more in-depth opinions, focus group interviews were also conducted with local residents, librarians at public libraries and book cafe libraries, and operators of small libraries. As a result, for the efficient operation of the Gangdong-gu library, it is necessary to establish the role of each library to adjust and reorganize specialization to form an ecosystem, to introduce services and programs without time and space restrictions required in the information society, and to actively promote and attract non-users to the library. The conclusion drawn is that it is necessary to establish a system and support system that can encompass various types of libraries.

선진 외국에서는 홍수예보 시스템 활용의 극대화를 위하여 홍수예 경보를 위한 정책적 가이드라인 및 홍수시 주민의 행동요령 등의 가이드라인을 제작하여 홍보를 하고 있는 실정이다. 그러나 국내에는 현재 홍수위험지도(홍수피해예상지도)의 홍보 및 주민 대피요령 등 홍수피해경감을 위한 정책적 대책이 매우 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 국내 외 홍수예 경보관련 법 제도의 변화과정 및 현행 홍수예보관련 법령의 내용을 분석하였으며, 홍수예 경보관련 기관의 구조체계를 분석하였다. 그 결과 우리나라의 홍수예보 정책은 통합된 홍수예보만을 위한 내용으로의 법적 편제가 필요하며, 정확하고 신속한 홍수예보를 위한 정책적 가이드라인이 필요함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 홍수예 경보 시스템의 활용을 극대화시키기 위해서 국가차원에서의 국민에 대한 홍수 예방 교육 및 홍보, 아울러 홍수위험지도를 이용한 홍수위험 지역의 주민에 대한 홍수대피요령 등의 내용을 포함한 가이드라인이 필요하다.

Coping and defense are similar psychological mechanisms to reduce stress response, but they are regarded as distinct from each other. Defense involved distortions of reality, but coping was used for strategies associated with accepting the true nature of the situation. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the coping and defense features of the North Korean Defectors in the Rorschach test. The subjects were then categorized into four groups based on their birth place and gender: Male North Korean defectors( N=16), female North Korean defectors(N=28), male South Koreans(N=17), and female South Koreans(N=25). All subjects were individually administered the Rorschach test, and protocols were scored according to the Exner(2003)'s Rorschach Comprehensive systems. Coping or defense-related Rorschach variables were selected for analysis: EA, CDI, Adj D, EB style, Lamda, Zd, X-%, Xu%, W:Dd:D, P, reaction time, and other behavior characteristics during the testing. Compared with other groups, female North Korean defectors were more likely to show poor coping resources(low EA), adjustment difficulties(Adj D), and distortions of reality(high X-%). They also demonstrated more 'don't know' responses and more delayed responses than other groups. These findings suggest that poor coping resources make female North Korean defectors more vulnerable to stress, and psychological intervention such as social skills training may help them settle successfully in south Korea. Limitations of the current study and implications for future research were discussed.

Objectives: This study was performed to compare rural residents' perceived health status and life satisfaction according to their general and health related characteristics and to identify factors related to perceived health status and life satisfaction in this population. Methods: Subjects were 1,091 adults aged 20 years or older living in Geochang Gun, South Korea. A survey was conducted from June 28 to August 25, 2009. We used the health self rating scale by Lawton et al. (1982) and the overall life satisfaction scale by Wrosch et al. (2000). The collected data were analyzed using SPSS WIN 18.0. Result: Sex, age, education, spouse, medical diagnosis, currently taking medication, main health maintenance behavior, alcohol consumption, frequency of alcohol consumption, exercise, family harmony, and friend relationships were significantly related to perceived health status. Age, education, spouse, main health maintenance behavior, smoking, exercise, family harmony, and friend relationships were significantly related to life satisfaction. Further, 29.3% of the variance in perceived health status could be explained by medical diagnosis, exercise, family harmony, education, currently taking medication, and friend relationships, while 11.1% of the variance in life satisfaction could be explained by family harmony, perceived health status, main health maintenance behavior, and friend relationships. Conclusion: Health management programs must be designed so as to incorporate the general and health related characteristics of rural residents if they aim to improve the perceived health status and life satisfaction in that population.

Background: Even though cervical cancer poses a significant global cancer burden, successful implementations for early detection offer an opportunity to prevent deaths and reduce the cancer burden. In Korea, cervical cancer is the most prevalent type of cancer among adult women, but it is one of the few cancers in which a consensus-approved screening test exists for early diagnosis, Pap test, that can be combined with highly efficacious treatment regimens for early-stage disease. Purpose: This study was carried out to identify the cognitive-behavioral factors associated with cervical cancer screening behavior among adult women, aged 40 to 59, and to develop tailored messages and to evaluate the effectiveness of stage-matched educational program. Method: A total of 283 women who aged 40 years or older was recruited in Seoul, from September, 1st to November, 14th, 2003. The intervention group (N=162) and the control group (N=121) were selected from five sub-districts in Seocho-gu, Seoul. Building on the TTM, a quasi-experimental study was conducted to test the effectiveness of stages-matched intervention addressed at the five stages of cervical cancer screening behavior. Women in the intervention group were randomly assigned to one of two conditions, internet or postal services. Results: In our results, 88.9% of participants had received a Pap test at least once in their life-time, and 65.4% had got it in the past two years. With regard to cognitive-behavioral factors, the stages-matched educational program increased attitude and process of change for cervical cancer screening. The percentage changed was the largest in maintenance stage. With regard to delivery methods for tailored messages, the print materials were more effective at increasing screening adherence than the e-mail. Whereas the postal service group showed remarkable the change of behavior stage, the internet service group did not. Also it was not shown any difference of the satisfaction with stages-matched educational program between internet and postal service groups. Conclusion: This study suggested that cervical cancer screening behavior could be changed by tailored messages which had developed with cognitive-behavioral factors. The stages-matched educational program was effective to promote the screening adherence for cervical cancer.

공공수역 수질오염 관리에 있어 비점오염원 관리의 중요성이 크게 부각되고 있다. 새만금호 유역은 농경지비율이 40%로서 넓기 때문에 농업비점오염 관리가 중요하다. 농업비점오염 저감을 위한 기법 연구는 국내에서 그 간 상당 수준으로 진행되었지만, 그 기법을 실행할 주체인 농업인이나 지역주민의 역량이나 농업비점오염의 인지도에 대한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구는 새만금유역에서 농업비점오염과 관련된 주체들 간의 정보의 소통과 흐름에 대하여 분석해보고, 또한 농업오염 교육 전후에 있어서 지역주민과 농업인의 농업비점오염에 대한 인식도와 교육효과에 대해서 살펴보았다. 먼저, 농업비점오염과 관련된 주체들 간의 지식흐름은 매크로레벨 즉, 정책입안자, 전문가 레벨에서 관련정보가 정체되어 있었고, 실제 농업비점오염 관련 저감 기법이나 정책을 실행하는 주체인 마이크로레벨의 농업인과 지역주민, 이를 지원하는 시군 공무원, 지역전문가 등 매소레벨을 지원하기 위한 정보로 가공 전달되지 못하고 있었다. 농업부서와 환경부서 사이의 농업비점오염에 대한 인식도의 차이가 크게 나타났으며, 특정 분야를 중심으로 활발한 소통이 있는 반면, 정보의 의도적 차단, 자기조직의 대응을 위한 형식적, 임시적 소통이 이루어지고 있었다. 귀농인과 친환경농업인에 대한 교육을 통하여 농업비점오염에 대한 인식도는 교육 전 38.1%에서 교육 후 100%로, 교육 후 농업비점이 오염원이라는 인식도도 친환경농업인 91%, 귀농귀촌인 78%로 응답하였다. 농업비점오염원 관리가 수질개선에 미치는 효과에 대하여는 친환경농업인은 5점 만점에 3.67점, 귀농귀촌인은 4.05점, 농업비점오염원 관리가 필요한지에 대하여 친환경농업인은 4.05점, 귀농귀촌인은 4.09점으로 두 집단 모두 농업비점오염원 관리가 필요하다고 응답하였다. 반면, 친환경 농업은 저감기법의 오염 저감 효과는 높게 인식하였지만, 직접 실행해 볼 의사는 3.4점, 저감 기법을 주위에 소개나 권고할 의사는 3.5점이었다. 또한, 실행 가능한 저감 기법으로는 퇴액비 사용, 완효성 비료사용, 녹비작물재배 등의 순이었다. 저감기법이 어렵다고 응답한 이유는 복잡할거 같다, 귀잖을 것 같다, 추가비용으로 손해, 저감효과 신뢰성 부족, 농업은 오염원이 아니다 등으로 나타났다. 이상의 연구결과를 살펴볼 때, 주체들 간의 정보와 지식흐름을 이어줄 중간조직의 필요성과 농업인의 인식의 변화가 행동의 변화로 이어질 수 있는 교육?홍보 기법과 농업인의 수용성이 높은 저감기법의 개발과 보급이 필요함을 시사하였다.

There have been many leading researches on the North Korean Refugees who were settling in Korea which were mostly focused on raising the Defector issues and seeking how to improve those. It is not so easy to get over social and cultural gap and differences between the South and the North prolonged for more than half a century especially when the possibility of bulk of the North Korean Refugees rushing into the South by any contingency case is very high or South and North should expand social integration on the basis of mutual exchange and cooperation. Local government should grope for any policy switch which can help them have positive postures rather than simple support policy for settlement, as well.
