Korean local governments operates the participatory budgeting system autonomously. This study is to classify these entities into clusters. Among the diverse machine learning methodologies(Neural Network, Rule Induction(CN2), KNN, Decision Tree, Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, SVM, Naïve Bayes), the Support Vector Machine technique emerged as the most efficacious in the analysis of 2022 Korean municipalities data. The first cluster C1 is characterized by minimal committee activity but a substantial allocation of participatory budgeting; another cluster C3 comprises cities that exhibit a passive stance. The majority of cities falls into the final cluster C2 which is noted for its proactive engagement in. Overall, most Korean local government operates the participatory busgeting system in good shape. Only a small number of cities is less active in this system. We anticipate that analyzing time-series data from the past decade in follow-up studies will further enhance the reliability of classifying local government types regarding participatory budgeting.

The purpose of this research is to analyze care types in long-term care facilities with the view of Active Ageing by using Q-methodology. In-depth interviews were conducted to grasp various thoughts on care of long-term care facilities in three areas of WHO's active aging: health, safety, and participation. 35 people participated in the interview, including the elderly living in long-term care facilities, adult children of the elderly living in long-term care facilities, the elderly living in the community, service providers, and long-term care professionals. Of the 451 Q populations, 63 Q samples were extracted, and a total of 43 P samples were used for final data analysis. Data were analyzed using the QUANL program, and as a result, three factor structures (4 types) were found to be suitable and accounted for 30.15% of the total variance. Current care types in long-term care facilities were analysed into 4 types: protection-oriented care (type 1), participation-oriented care (type 2), medical-connected care (type 3), and human-centered care (type 4). Based on the results of this study, institutional and practical suggestions and implications were presented for the qualitative change of care in long-term care facilities.

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.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the process of relationships among participants in a group mentoring program. Sixteen youths who participated as mentees in a group mentoring program were theoretically sampled and participated in in-depth interviews. The analysis was based on Strauss and Corbin's grounded theory approach(1990). The result shows that the qualitative text data were classified into 14 categories and 31 sub-categories. Four different types of mentees' experiences were identified: 'expanded mentoring relationship', 'peer-oriented relationship', 'task-oriented relationship' and 'avoidant relationship'. Through a process analysis, four stages including 'stage of exploring', 'stage of establishing relations', 'stage of conflict' and 'stage of expanding relations' were discovered. Implications for social work intervention and policy development were discussed based on these findings.

The purpose of this research is to analysis of distinction according to athletics class teaching of sport activities participation by primary school female teachers. The result showed that primary school female teachers who had participated in sports activities had higher average in athletic class recognition and athletic class teaching than those who had not participated in sports activities. The difference was statistically significant. Among participators to sports activities, teachers who participated in "indirect competition type sports" had higher average in athletic class teaching than those who had participated in "performance record type sports" or "aesthetic sports". The difference was statistically significant. Regarding degree of participation in sports activities, teachers who had participated in twice and more than twice a week had higher average in athletic class teaching than those who had participated in once or less than once a week. The difference was statistically significant. There was no significant difference among groups regarding participating time or participating period in sports activities. In conclusion, our research suggests that sports activities participation by primary school female teachers gives positive impact to athletic class teaching.

The main premise of this study is that family involvement which is based on professional-family collaborative partnership is very important for successful treatment and rehabilitation of the mentally ill. Accordingly, this study aims to find out factors which are related to family involvement in therapeutic process. This study conducted the survey with 275 service providers(i.e. mental health professionals) and with 124 service consumers(i.e. family members) in order to discover in what extent do related factors affect on the family involvement. The major findings of the study are; 1) From the service providers standpoint, using multiple regression, job characteristics, perception of family culpability, frequency of contact with family, functioning of their organization affect significantly on the family involvement by 33.0% of explanatory power. Using a step-wise multiple regression, the most powerful influenced factors on family involvement are frequency of contact with family, type of agency, type of profession, and their career. 2) From the service consumers standpoint, using multiple regression, socioeconomic level, attitudes of professionals, optimistic perception of prognosis, functioning of their family, diagnosis affect significantly on the family involvement by 40.9% of explanatory power. Using a step-wise multiple regression, the most powerful influenced factors on family involvement are economic level, attitudes of professionals, optimistic perception of prognosis, educational level. In conclusion, family accessibility to the therapeutic system must be allowed and further, politically encouraged by the related legislation. Also this study recommends clinician to use an empowerment model for the families with the mentally ill.

Firms initiate philanthropic activities to improve social welfare that is beyond the scope of their responsibility towards society. Forestry activities, among other philanthropic areas, simultaneously improve corporate environment and social performance and provide the opportunity to cooperate for a large number of employees. Firms can effectively contribute to forest conservation with their financial and human resources. To encourage participation of more firms, we need to understand how and why firms engage in such activities. This study aims to explore different types of philanthropic forestry activities that these firms undertake. Corporate philanthropic activities can be categorized as donation, in-house project, or collaboration according to the governance type. We analyzed Yuhan-Kimberly's forestry campaign to investigate how and why the firm engaged in each type. We also propose some practical implications for firms, government, and non-profit organizations to invigorate firm's participation in philanthropic forestry activities.

This review was conducted to identify the research trends in music intervention studies with elderly patients with dementia. Korean- and English-written studies on music intervention for this population were searched and analyzed. Seventeen studies were included in the final analysis. The results showed that behavioral and psychological symptoms were the main dependent variables. In terms of the type of music intervention employed, interventions requiring the patient's active participation in producing music were more common than interventions that required the patient to only listen to music. The majority of studies provided live music, selected music that was familiar to and preferred by the patient, and utilized rhythm-based performance activities. In the studies using active music production as the intervention, the participants were asked to express the emotions evoked by group instrument playing or singing along with music, which doesn't reflect the functional limitations (e.g., cognitive impairment) of elderly patients with moderate to severe dementia. The results of this review point to the need in the field to develop music intervention programs for the elderly with moderate to severe dementia that meaningfully engage these patients in music-related behaviors that target their specific symptomology.

컴퓨터 및 인터넷의 대중화가 급속도로 이루어지면서 전자상거래의 한 부분인 전자경매에 대한 관심과 개발이 상당부분 이루어지고 있다. 웹을 통한 전자경매의 발달로 직접 경매장에 가지 않고서도 적은 비용으로 다양한 상품들을 구매 및 판매할 수 있으므로 소비자와 공급자 모두에게 편의성과 이익을 제공해 주고 있다. 한편 에이전트에 대한 관심이 높아지면서 전자경매 시스템에 이를 적용하여 경매참여자의 편의성과 효율성을 증대시키려는 노력들도 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 대표적인 에이전트 기반 전자경매 시스템으로는 미국 워싱턴대학의 eMediator, 미시건대학의 AuctionBot, 스웨덴의 FishMarket 등이 있다. 이들 시스템들은 지원하는 경매유형, 입찰가격정책, 상품유형, 경매대상, 에이전트의 역할 및 기능등에서 상당한 차이를 보이고 있다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 전자경매시스템은 특히 경매참여자인 사용자의 편의성과 경매관리 및 운영의 안정성을 목표로 하고 있다. 에이전트 기반의 전자경매 시스템을 개발함으로써 기본적으로 사용자 인터페이스를 통한 경매참여와 사용자가 직접 에이전트를 생성하여 이동시킴으로써 경매에 참여하는 방법을 제공한다. 두 방법 모두 참여자가 직접 경매에 참여하는 것이 아니고 에이전트를 통해 언제 어디서나 경매에 참여하여 원하는 가격대로 상품을 구매하거나 팔 수 있도록 시스템을 개발하는데 목적이 있다.
