This study has been conducted to assess the effectiveness of the elderly employment programs through change of social capital by understanding how the elderly employment programs in the elderly employment policy of Korea has effected the change of social capital. The method of research was to design the research in the nonequivalent control groups design from the quasi-experimental design for the 500 elderly who participated and 250 who have not participated in the elderly employment programs through distributing structured questionnaire by classifying into before and after the project during 7 months from March 1, 2010 to September 30, 2010 to those above 65 living in Changwon. The social capital which is an important variable among the measurement index of the study has been set as trust, network, and social participation fields based on the aforementioned theoretic background. When the fact that there is a partial difference in the change of social capital of the elderly according to the participation in the elderly employment programs and the timing (before/after) is looked at in terms of change of social capital after controlling the general character of the elderly and the pre-score, there are differences per timing according to the participation in the elderly employment programs. Thus, the participation in the elderly employment programs had a significant difference in the change of social capital. It is possible to see that the trust, network, and social participation of the social capital all increased in the elderly with difficulties in their living status. It can be seen that the participation in the elderly employment programs brings forth increase of social capital for the elderly with difficulties in their living status. Among the social capitals, the elderly who participated in the elderly employment programs showed that the trust increased the most. Consequently, in order to increase the comprehensive social capital, the programs must be carried out focused on the vulnerable class in parallel to the elderly employment programs for the general elderly of other classes.

노인성 난청(presbycusis)은 나이가 들어감에 따라 청력이 점진적으로 악화되는 것으로 성인 난청의 가장 흔한 원인중 하나이다. 미국과 마찬가지로 국내의 여러 연구에서 보면, 65세 이상의 노인 중 보청기를 착용해야 할 정도의 난청이 있는 비율이 전체의 30~35% 정도를 차지하고 있다. 이렇기 때문에 노인성 난청은 노인성 만성 질환 중 퇴행성 관절염, 고혈압에 이어 3대 만성 질환으로 분류되고 있다.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to classify frail and non-frail elderly and to investigate health promoting behaviors and perceived health status in the elderly according to the type of residency. Methods: This was a descriptive study. Data collection was performed from June 15th, 2009 to August 2nd, 2009. The subjects were selected at D city in Korea. Data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, $x^2$-test, and ANCOVA test with SPSS/Win 15.0 program. Results: 20.8% of the elderly living at home and 49.2% of those living in institution were frail. Frailty of the elderly living in institution was severer than those living at home. Non-frail elderly according to the type of residency showed higher scores of health promotion behavior and perceived health status than frail elderly. The elderly living at home showed higher scores of health promotion behavior than those living in institution. Conclusions: In the comparison study between the elderly living at home and institution, ratio of frail elderly among the elderly living in institution is high and health promotion behaviors are deficient as well. Frail preventive program for the elderly is needed to develop and apply in consideration of these findings.

대한민국은 고령 사회로 진입하고 있을 정도로 노인인구가 빠르게 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라 각종 노인성 질환 역시 빠르게 늘어나고 있어 이것은 개인뿐 아니라 가족과 사회에 커다란 고통과 부담을 주고 있다. 그중에서도 우울증은 노인정신 질환 중에 가장 흔하며 노인자살의 원인이 되는 등 심각한 사회문제가 되고 있다.

The purpose of this paper is to examine how visuospatial ability affects the situation awareness for older drivers while driving. For this study, the Rey-Osterrith Complex Figure (ROCF) was used to measure the visuospatial ability of older drivers. The ROCF is used to measure visuospatial construct and memory abilities, and Real-Time Probes were used to measure the situation awareness with UC-win/Road simulation. Sixty drivers participated in this research (N = 30 older drivers, median = 70 years old and N = 30 younger drivers, median = 27 years old). Based on the results of this analysis, a repeated measure ANOVA was used to analyze the effect on each level of situation awareness related to visuospatial ability in driving. The results indicate that the visuospatial ability of older drivers serves as a crucial factor in determining the potential for older drivers to safely continue to drive. The results also imply the necessity of ROCF development to support and improve the visuospatial ability of older drivers.

본 연구는 방문건강관리사업 대상자 중 취약한 노인여성과 노인증후군 관련요인에 대한 인과관계 모형을 규명하여 취약한 노인 여성의 보건의료서비스 제공 시 효율적인 방안제시를 위한 기초자료로 활용하고자 시행하였다. 연구대상자는 2008년 7월 1일부터 9월 30일까지의 기간 동안 전국 보건소에 등록된 방문건강관리사업 대상자 중 동의된 65세 이상 노인여성 1,350명을 선정하여 훈련된 조사원이 직접면담을 통해 조사하였다. 수집된 자료 중 불충분한 29명을 제외한 1,321명을 최종 분석대상으로 하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 17.0 프로그램을 이용하여 빈도분석 및 카이제곱 검정, t-검정, ANOVA, 사후검정은 Tukey를 이용하였으며, 유의한 변수들을 선정하여 로지스틱 회귀분석을 이용하여 분석 하였다. 연구결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 허약과 관련 있는 노인증후군위험요인은 우울, 요실금, 낙상력, 일상적 수행활동(ADL)으로 나타났다(p<0.05). 둘째, 허약에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 연령이 75세 이상의 고령일수록, 우울과 요실금의 증상이 있을 때, 최근 낙상경험이 있을 때 허약의 증가 위험이 높은 것으로 나타났다(p<0.05). 셋째, 노인증후군의 위험요인 증가에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 평생 동안 담배를 5갑 이상 피웠을 때, 당뇨병이 있을 때로 나타났다(p<0.05). 이상 결과를 볼 때, 취약 노인 대상으로 노인증후군, 허약의 향상을 위해서는 만성질환관리 프로그램 뿐 만 아니라 체계적인 근력강화 운동 및 정신건강관리 프로그램의 충분한 확대보급이 반드시 필요하다.
