This study was conducted to examine the effects of a healthy dietary life and purchase of environmental-friendly food materials according to a mother's lifestyles of health and sustainability (LOHAS) attitudes. The subjects consisted of 295 mothers. The findings are summarized as follows. The mother's LOHAS attitude index averaged 3.39 points out of 5 points. High LOHAS attitude items were "I participate actively in separating the trash collection" (4.16 points), and "I recycle dresses that I do not wear by taking them to the recycling center" (4.08 points). In contrast, LOHAS attitude items for "I do community service activity on the weekend" (2.57 points), and "I try to serve in the local community" (2.63 points) scored very low. A high LOHAS behavior index occurred for mothers who were "resource saving", whereas "social welfare" scored low. Mother's intention to purchase environmental-friendly food materials averaged 3.61 points. Mother's health dietary life attitude score averaged 3.52 points. When age, monthly income, and the environmental-friendly food materials purchase ratio of the mother was high, the health dietary life performance was high. The LOHAS attitude index of mothers had an impact on the purchase intention of environmental-friendly food materials in resource saving and environmental-friendly oriented propensity groups. The LOHAS attitude index of mothers impacted healthy dietary life in environmental-friendly, family and health oriented propensity groups.

This study was conducted to investigate the differences in households, parental perception, and dietary behaviors of preschool children from kindergartens with environment-friendly food service (environment-friendly food service group; EFG) versus children from kindergartens with general food service (general food service group; GFG). We sought this basic information to examine the impact of environment-friendly agricultural products in preschool food services. Age, education level, and monthly family income of the EFG were significantly higher than the GFG. The frequency of purchasing environment-friendly agricultural products was significantly higher in the EFG than the GFG, with the most frequently purchased items in both groups being vegetables. The GFG had a significantly higher perception than the EFG in the superior quality of environment-friendly agricultural products; however, a greater proportion of the GFG than the EFG thought environment-friendly products were too expensive. The most frequent reason for purchasing environment-friendly agricultural products in both groups was safety. When purchasing environment-friendly agricultural products, the most important selection factor for the majority of both groups was the label certifying quality assurance. Both groups also considered price reduction as essential for promoting environment-friendly agricultural products. In regard to parental perceptions on food service in kindergarten, the EFG had a significantly higher satisfaction with the nutritional adequacy of the menu compared to the GFG. Both groups considered food safety and health as primary reasons for using environment-friendly foods in the preschool food service, with a greater proportion of the EFG than the GFG responding this way. There were significant differences between the EFG and GFG, as the main satisfaction from using environment-friendly foods in the EFG was safety, freshness, and good hygiene, whereas the main satisfaction in the GFG was a good food service menu, freshness and good hygiene. Dietary behaviors of preschool children in the EFG were also significantly superior to the GFG. Thus, environment-friendly agricultural products have positive effects on the dietary behaviors of preschool children and should be increased in the preschool food service. Lowering prices and a strict supervision of quality assurance is also necessary to promote consumption of environment-friendly food materials.

본 연구는 노후불안인식의 수준과 노후불안인식에 영향을 주는 요인을 각 연령집단별로 살펴보고, 노후불안을 낮추기 위해 사회적으로 어떠한 대안이 마련되어야 하는지 탐색하기 위한 목적으로 진행되었다. "2017 연령통합 설문 조사" 자료를 사용하였으며, 총 1,017명의 조사대상자를 청년층 307명, 중년층 357명, 노년층 353명의 3개 연령집단으로 구분하여 노후불안인식 영향 요인들을 비교분석하였다. 각 연령집단 간 노후불안인식의 정도에 차이가 있는지 분산분석을 통해 살펴보았으며, 노후불안인식에 대한 각 변수들의 영향력을 다중회귀분석을 통해 분석해 보았다. 분석결과, 각 연령집단별 노후불안인식에는 차이가 없었으나, 그에 영향을 미치는 요인에는 집단 간 차이가 있었다. 노후불안인식에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 분석한 회귀분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 먼저, 노인낙인은 모든 연령집단에서 노후불안인식에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 근로가능연령은 청년층과 중년층에서 노후불안인식에 영향을 미치고 있었다. 사회공정성인식은 중년층과 노년층에서 노후불안인식에 영향을 주는 요인으로 분석되었다. 연령통합인식과 고령친화적 환경 변인은 노년층에서만 노후불안인식에 유의미한 영향을 미치고 있었다. 본 연구는 노후불안에 대해 사회적 관점에서 접근하고자 하였으며, 노년기에 대한 인식과 사회 환경에 대한 인식과의 연관성을 통해 실증적으로 규명하고자 하였다는 점에서 의의가 있다.

The purpose of this study was to identify environmental perception of eco-friendly apartment residents in the perspective of ecology. Questionnaire survey was adopted in this study, and 92 cases were used for data analysis. As an indicator of environmental perception, the New Ecological Paradigm (NEP) instrument was used. The NEP instrument consists of five dimensions: the reality of limits to growth, anti-anthropocentrism, the fragility of nature's balance, the rejection of exemptionalism, and the possibility of an eco-crisis. The findings showed that the residents held ecological environmental perceptions. Various social characteristics(gender, age, income) of the respondents were related to acceptance of the NEP.

This paper presents a learning framework that fits the digital age - an e-Friendly PLE. The learning framework is based on the theory of connectivism which asserts that knowledge and the learning of knowledge is distributive and is not located in any given place but rather consists of the network of connections formed from experiences and interactions with a knowing community, thus, the newly empowered learner is thinking and interacting in new ways. The framework's approach to learning is based on conversation and interaction, on sharing, creation and participation, on learning not as a separate activity, but rather as embedded in meaningful activities such as games or workflows. It sees learning as an active, personal inquiry, interpretation, and construction of meaning from prior knowledge and experience with one's actual environment.

This case study surveyed management situations of environmentally friendly farming(EFF) producers' organization and their main activities. Farmers are aging as an average age of 55-year old and producing fruit-bearing vegetables. The EFF did not increase farmer's income, however, price and income was stabilized more than that of conventional farming because of contract farming. Farm household liabilities are caused by purchasing agricultural machinery, materials and so on. Farmers of EFF have been also cultivating conventional farming, but they don't plan much conversion intention of conventional farming into EFF owing to lack of differentiated and stable market for their EFF products. And they are guessing that EFF income will increase a little. For increasing of EFF income, they think that it is necessary to reduce production cost, produce high quality production, develop processing foods, enlarge contract farming and so on.

A survey on the understanding of environment-friendly certification system was conducted for certified operators. The survey included the necessity of certification system, difficulties in producing certified products, and general evaluation of the current certification system. Certified operators were generally satisfied with the certification system in terms of the certification standards, the public subsidy programs, and the farm management costs. Individuals with parallel production farms were relatively less satisfied than the group with full-time organic farmers. Analysis using the ranking probit model indicated that the longer the certification experience, the more highly aware the need for the certification system was. Our results indicated that policy strategies are needed to enlarge the marketability of environment-friendly agricultural products since economic factors of organic products were the most important factor for maintaining and expanding certification in overseas as well as in Korea. It seems to be necessary to implement economic triggers for certified operators to continue their certification programs by promoting the transition period certification for individual farms in parallel with conventional agriculture. Analysis of the variables correlated with the expansion of environment-friendly agriculture by the logit model implied that certified operators with the younger age and higher annual incomes were more likely to expand environment-friendly agriculture. Therefore, it might also be important to provide financial support and incentives for new entry farmers to participate in environment-friendly agriculture and establish a system to share the know-how of successful certified organic farmers.
