  • This study discussed the trends and characteristics of mental health services in the public libraries of North America. To accomplish this, this study collected its data through literature surveys, observations and interviews with librarians within the Vancouver public library system. The results show that there were many cases in which patrons asked public libraries for information on their mental health problems and the public libraries helped the patrons cope with their problems. The public libraries' assistance programs for national tragedies and natural disasters were temporary services. On the other hand, public libraries were continuously advising and guiding patrons dealing with emotional and psychological problems through the readers' advisory and information services. Specifically, public libraries were actively assisting various sensitive issues that are generated in the development of children and youths(for example, adoption, divorce and separation, remarriage, family, friendship, disabilities, death, self-esteem, emotions, bulling, violence, abuse, suicide, illness, addiction, sexual health, youth pregnancy and so on). The key role of librarians under these circumstances was to guide and recommend appropriate books and professional institutions that help solve the problems.

  • 본 연구는 영문으로 발표된 문헌고찰을 통해 한국의 청소년 자살행동의 예측요인을 종합적으로 이해하고 이과 관련된 정책과 중재프로그램의 동향을 파악하는데 그 목적을 두었다. 이 연구의 목적은 나아가 한국 청소년 자살을 감소시키고 억제하는데 필요한 효과적인 중재방안의 개발에 근거자료로 활용될 수 있다. 본 연구는 주제어 검색을 통해 4대 사회과학 검색엔진을 활용하여 문헌검색을 하였고 Citation Pearl Growing 기법을 적용하여 영문으로 발표된 학술지 게재 논문을 선별하였는데 추가적으로 국회도서관 전자 데이터베이스를 이용하여 최근 청소년 자살에 관한 대표적인 2개의 보고서를 찾아 고찰하였다. 본 문헌고찰은 청소년 자살예방 중재 프로그램 뿐만 아니라 청소년 자살행동에 영향을 주는 요인을 거시적, 미시적 차원으로 논하였다. 청소년 자살행동에 기여하는 거시적 또는 사회적 요인은 국가 경제수준, 대학입시에 대한 학업성취도 스트레스, 그리고 매체 및 인터넷 문화였다. 개인적 또는 미시적 위험요인은 6개의 영역으로 나누어 설명되었다. 일반적 특성, 가족 특성, 학교 환경, 약물 사용, 정신적 장애, 성적 정체성이었다 이 6개 영역의 위험요인들이 서로 조합되면서 청소년에게 자살 의도나 시도가 일어나도록 하는 경향이 높았으며 이중 청소년 자살 예방에 우선적인 3대 요소는 자아정체성 확립, 정신건강 중재서비스의 제공, 거시적 예방 정책의 구조화로 분석되었다. 종합적으로 학교는 정규학교교육과정과 학생 검사를 통해서 일반적인 정신건강교육을 실시하고 위험학생을 선별 하는데 핵심적인 장이다. 따라서 학교를 경유한 위험학생 선별사업과 이에 따른 교육 및 중재 프로그램의 지원이 활성화되는 것이 필요하다.

  • 치료레크리에이션은 사회에 있는 많은 사람들이 그 대상이 될 수 있다. 이러한 치료레크리에이션 서비스대상은 특수대상과 일반대상으로 구분된다. 한국치료레크리에이션협회에서 실시하고 있는 대상에서 특수대상으로는 발달장애아동, 물질중독청소년, 가출청소년, 정신장애인, 뇌졸중노인, 치매노인, 장애노인 등이고 일반대상으로는 인터넷 중독성향 청소년, 직장인, 일반인가족, 갱년기 주부, 건강노인, 건강노인부부 등이다. 한편, 우리나라에서는 급속한 고령화로 인하여 가족과 사회의 보호를 필요로 하는 의존적 노인들이 점차 증가하고 있다. 특히 보호의 필요성이 가장 높다고 할 수 있는 치매노인의 절대수가 증가할 것으로 예상된다. 그러나 현대화, 산업화에 의해서 발생하는 핵가족화, 여성의 사회참여 증가 등으로 가족의 노부모 부양기능은 급격히 약화되고 있다. 이에 따라 이들의 의료 및 사회적 보호문제는 노인복지제도의 주요한 과제로 등장하게 되었다. 따라서 본(本) 고(稿)에서는 노인복지제도의 향상의 일환으로 노인을 위한 치료레크리에이션의 실제 활동 프로그램을 제안해보도록 하고자 한다.

  • Objectives: This study aims to supplement the limitations of the preliminary study and expand the use of the Child-Adolescent Functional Assessment Scale by providing standardized T-scores for measuring function in different areas, as well as guidelines for their interpretation. Methods: The Child-Adolescent Functional Assessment Scale and Korean-Child Behavior Checklist were administered to a total of 623 individuals, including 467 parents of emotionally and behaviorally disturbed elementary school students, 45 parents of emotionally and behaviorally disturbed middle school adolescents and 111 parents of elementary school students with developmental disorders, as well as to a control group consisting of 186 parents of mainstream elementary school children in the Seoul metropolitan area. Results: In contrast to the preliminary study, the emotional domain was disassociated into two factors, negative affect and emotion regulation, and the coefficient of determination for misconduct was increased significantly. Also, the overall reliability and validity of the Child-Adolescent Functional Assessment Scale were similar to those in the preliminary study, and the item structure was consistent. This study provides standardized T-scores of function in different areas based on the revised scale, and provides guidelines for their interpretation. Conclusion: The Child-Adolescent Functional Assessment Scale can assist the Child Global Assessment in Functioning in providing the information necessary for case management and treatment planning by comparing the impairment severity in each area of functioning, and also determining changes in behavior and function after treatment interventions. On the other hand, this scale has yet to clearly distinguish between rebellious behavior and misconduct. Further research is necessary to provide standards for more diverse age groups and for its utilization.

  • People begin to recognize sexual orientation or gender identity in adolescence, and adolescents frequently use an accessible and anonymous anonymity knowledge retrieval community to explore sensitive health information about gender. This study attempted to observe their information search behavior based on questions and answers about adolescents' gender identity in the knowledge retrieval community. First, we wanted to examine their information needs and to investigate what factors they preferred to answer by comparing the characteristics of the answers adopted with the non-adopted answers among the answers provided in the questions they shared. To this end, Naver, Korea's representative knowledge search community. In Knowledge-iN, a total of 358 sets of data were analyzed, consisting of responses adopted over three years from January 2016 to December 2018. As a result, adolescents with concerns about gender identity demanded information about definition or confusion about gender identity. In the responses adopted by the users, the factors that gave empathy and positive feelings were higher than those that were not adopted, whereas the negative responses were higher in the unaccepted answers. This study is meaningful in that it analyzes the information needs and information search behaviors of adolescents with no established gender identity, expands the discussion in the information search field, and confirms cognitive and emotional models for information evaluation of health information users. Also, based on the research results, we propose practical implications for effective information services on gender identity that social media should provide to young people.
