The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of the resilience of families of middle-aged married men upon the perception of family stress. The subjects were 301 married men age 40.54 living in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province, Korea. Participants were selected using a purposive sampling method and a convenience sampling method. The data were statistically processed using the SPSS 18.0 program. First, participants who perceived family stress less and had higher family resilience tended to be better educated, have higher average family incomes, have permanent employment, be religious, and have no experience of unemployment. Participants who had low-paying, physical labor-based jobs or who were contract workers perceived family stress more and had lower family resilience. Second, among the variables that affected family resilience, those that most influenced the perceptual extent of family stress were the sense of belief system's family control, having a positive perspective, flexibility with regard to morality, religion, and organizational patterns, connectivity, family resources, communication-oriented mutual cooperative problem-solving, and emotional response. Third, the influence of family resilience upon the perception of family stress measured at 44.2% based on regression analysis and was statistically significant (F=4.606, ***p<.001).

This study examines the effects of late school-aged children's perception of their mother's responses to negative emotions and their ego resilience on their life satisfaction. Data were collected from 390 fifth- and sixth-graders residing in Kwangju, Korea. With the data, frequency, percentages, and Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ were calculated. Pearson's product moment correlation coefficients and hierarchical regression analyses were also considered. The effects of various variables on life satisfaction were analyzed, and according to the results, vitality had the greatest effect on life satisfaction, followed by vitality, optimism, emotional coaching responses, interpersonal relationships, emotion-reducing responses, emotion control, and the material employment status, in that order. The study contributes to the literature by providing additional insights into the mother's desirable responses to children's negative emotions and highlighting the importance of positive ego resilience in children's life satisfaction through the elucidation of effects of late school-aged children's perception of their mother's responses to negative emotions and their ego resilience on their life satisfaction.

In order to investigate if the employment of housewives may affect the nutritional status of their family members, an analysis was made for the data of 2001 Korea National Health and Nutrition survey. Housewives aged 20 or over were divided into two groups of the working (W, 44.3%) and the non-working (NW, 55.7%), and household income levels were divided into 4 groups of low, middle, high, and high above according to the minimum cost of living in the year of 2001. Nutrient intakes were assessed by using dietary recommended intakes for Koreans of 2005. Working housewives showed similar levels to those of non-working housewives in most nutrients intakes except energy and vitamin C. However their families excluding housewives of W, than those of NW, took less protein, calcium, iron, potassium, vitamin A, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and vitamin C when assessed as % of recommended intakes and took more sodium. Such differences were very strong in children and adolescents, and in the middle income households. More % of the families of W than those of NW consumed nutrients below the estimated average requirements. Percents of hypertension classified by both systolic and diastolic blood pressure were higher in adult family members of W than in those of NW. This tendency seemed to be more significant in the family members aged 30 to 49. Both obesity and under-weight rates of school children ($7{\sim}12\;yrs$) in W were higher than those in NW. The above resuIts suggested that employment of housewives could have negative influences on the nutritional status of their family members, especially of their children and in the middle income class.

Objectives : The purpose of the study is to obtain the basic data for an industrial oral health project enhancing the quality of life and oral health. Methods : Questionnaire consisted of 17 questions including 7 questions of general characteristics, 5 questions of oral health awareness, and 5 questions of the behavior of oral health. A self-reported questionnaire was carried out from September 1 to September 28, 2012, The subjects were 400 male and female sanitation workers in private corporations in Jeonju. A total of 354 questionnaires were analyzed using SPSS windows ver. 12.0 (SPSS Inc. Korea). Results : The majority of the subjects were male in 50's. Temporary contract workers are older aged and 2 to 5 years of career workers were the majority of the cleaners. Average monthly income was less than 2 million Korean Won. Those who had a higher academic background and permanent position tended to have oral health knowledge (p<0.05). Female workers had healthier subjective oral health status than male workers. Those who were in older age, single, temporary position, and 2 to 5 years of career tended to have healthier subjective oral health status (p<0.05). Those who were in older age, married, and long period of employment were worrying about their health (p<0.05). The subjective oral health knowledge was high in 49.7% of the workers because they were not able to brush teeth during work hours. They were able to brush their teeth only after dinner. It was low in female and older aged workers (p<0.05). The brushing method included a combination of top to bottom and from the side to side. Conclusions : This study showed the influencing factor of oral health in street workers. Work environment, education, age, monthly income, and types of employment were the important factors to oral health care. It is necessary to provide the right oral health care program for the workers in the near future.

이 연구는 노인계층의 재정적 자립과 지속적 사회생활을 통해 그들이 주체적 삶을 살도록 하기 위해서는 그들의 직업능력개발이 필요하다고 보고, 이를 지원하기 위한 직업능력개발 평생교육프로그램의 지향 방향을 제안하고자 하는 목적을 가지고 시행되었다. 이 연구에서는 노인계층의 직업능력개발 평생교육프로그램과 일자리 간 연계가, 노인들이 안정적인 일자확보와 더불어 고령화로 인한 사회적 문제 해결을 위해 중요하게 확인되어야 할 것으로 보고, 이에 대한 탐색을 통해 향후 프로그램이 지향해야 할 방향을 제시하고자 하였다. 분석결과, 노인의 일자리 기회가 비숙련직 중심으로 열려있으므로 표준화된 정규 편성된 프로그램과 연계되지 못하였고, 이는 프로그램의 전문성 및 지속성의 부족으로 인한 고용불안으로 이어졌다. 또한 노년층의 직업능력개발이 경제활동 목적 이상의 의미를 가진다는 것에 대한 사회적 합의가 부족하여, 직업능력개발 관련 프로그램들이 취업과 직접 연계되지 않고 있었다. 따라서 본 연구는 향후 노인의 신체적 사회적 문제를 공감할 수 있는 기회를 줄 연계프로그램을 확대하고, 노인직업능력개발을 위한 프로그램을 확대 및 표준화하여 프로그램의 전문성 및 지속성을 확보해야 한다고 보았다. 이를 통해 노인의 고용가능성을 향상시킬 수 있는 직업능력개발 평생교육프로그램을 관리 지원하여 교육기관과 일자리 간 연계가 이뤄지도록 해야 할 것이다.

1997-98년의 외환위기는 한국경제 전반에 걸쳐 커다란 변화를 초래하였다. 특히 노동시장에서도 200만 명의 전례 없는 대량실업을 경험하였다. 이전의 고학력 실업과 생산직 노동력 부족이라는 두 가지 큰 특징으로부터 성, 학력, 연령에 관계없는 전 노동력에서의 대량실업이라는 특징을 경험하게되었다. 불경기에서의 기업 구조조정은 많은 직장인들로 하여금 통상적인 정년을 채우지 못하고 조기 퇴직해야 하는 상황을 초래하였다. 특히 50세 이상의 중·고령자 조기퇴직은 그들이 가정경제를 책임지는 가장으로서의 가정적 불안 뿐 아니라, 사회적으로도 실업자 보호를 위한 비용지출이 증대될 수밖에 없다. 이러한 현상은 직장에 남아있는 근로자들의 고용불안으로 확대되어 근로자들의 의사가 제대로 반영되지 않는 채 그 동안 정착된 고용관행(60세 전후 정년퇴직, 연공서열형 보수체계, 등)이 쉽게 무너지고, 사용자 중심의 새로운 고용관행(계약직, 연봉제, 단시간 근로형태, 등)이 확대될 가능성이 높아지게 되었다. 본 연구는 중·고령자의 고용안정과 촉진을 위한 정책대안과 촉진을 위한 정책대안을 제시함으로써 개인에게는 적합한 직종에서 일할 기회를 부여하고, 사회적으로는 실업문제의 해결로 사회복지비용의 지출을 최소화한다는 차원에서 연구되었다. 일반적으로 채용 면에서는 퇴직된 중·고령자도 신구인력과 경쟁적일 수박에 없으므로 비록 경기가 회복되더라도 재취업의 어려움은 여전히 남을 수밖에 없다. 뿐만 아니라 이들은 오랫동안 피고용자로서 근무해 왔기 때문에 신규 자영업에 진출하기도 조심스러울 수밖에 없어 이들의 경제활동에 대한 정부차원의 지원정책이 필요할 것이다. 연구결과 다음과 같은 몇 가지 중요한 정책적 시사점을 제시할 수 있다. 의무고용률 의 조정, 퇴직 전 전직훈련의 의무화, 고령자 창업보육센타의 설립, 신규채용이나 퇴직에서 제한연령의 완화 및 철폐, 서비스 산업에서의 고령자 적합직종의 개발, 등이 그것이다.

Body mass index(BMI) is recognized as one of the most useful indexes for adiposity in children and adults. This study was conducted to provide information on BMI distribution by age and sex in Korean children, and to identify sociodemographic factors that affected BMI among children. The study was conducted on 2376 children(boys 1184, girls 1192) living in a middle-size city in Korea. Subjects were selected from the primary schoolchildren in grades 1-6 using the two-stage sampling method. Their mean age was 9.4 years. The percentile of BMI tended to increase as age increased in both sexes. The 85th percentile for boys, aged 6-12 years, was 19.8kg/㎡, and the 95th percentile was 22.5kg/㎡. The 85th percentile for girls, aged 6-12 years, was 18.9kg/㎡, and the 95th percentile was 21.5kg/㎡. Multiple regression analysis was carried out to predict BMI from percent ideal body weight (PIBW), age and sex. After adjusting PIBW and age, BMI for boys was 0.062kg/㎡ lower than that for girls. One year of age increased BIM by 0.55kg/㎡. The prevalence rate of overweight and obesity based on PIBW was 15.8% and 15.0% for boys, and 14.0% and 11.0% for girls, respectively. Demographic factors such as sex, age, and parents' obesity influenced children's BMI. After adjusting for sex, age and parents' BMI, the presence of another children in family, and mother's employment status showed a strong effect on children's BMI. The results suggest an age-sex specific BMI distribution of Korean children. The present study also provides direct evidence of a correlation between early life environmental factors, such as presence of siblings or mother's employment, and BMI level in Korean children.

Objectives: This study aimed to compare the factors of dietary and health behavior according to the employment in women in early adulthood and to analyze their relationship. Methods: In this study, adult women aged 20~29 who participated in the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) 2016~2019 were classified into two groups depending on their permanent worker status, namely tenured employees (n = 254) and temporary employees (n = 377). Dietary habits (prevalence of skipping meals, food nutrition label use, etc.), nutrient intake, and metabolic syndrome factors were analyzed. Results: The tenured employees' group showed a significantly lower proportion of subjects who skipped breakfast (P = 0.0254) and significantly higher daily energy intake (P = 0.0264) than the temporary employees' group. However, there were no significant differences in the intake of energy nutrients and most of the micronutrients per 1,000 kcal of energy intake between the two groups. The proportion of subjects who consumed energy nutrients under 75% of the estimated energy requirement (EER) was 38.11% in the tenured employees' group, which was significantly lower than the 48.30% in the temporary employees' group (P = 0.0159). In economically active women aged 19~29 years, the odds ratio of low HDL-cholesterolemia prevalence was 1.80 times higher (95% CI, 1.06-3.06) in the temporary employees' group compared to that in the tenured employees' group after adjustment for confounding factors (P = 0.0295). Conclusions: In conclusion, among Korean adult women in their twenties, temporary employees showed inappropriate eating habits such as skipping breakfast, and had abnormal blood lipid levels.

본 연구는 목조주택시공 및 조경시공분야의 직업훈련과정에 참여한 194명을 대상으로 연령구간에 따른 직업 훈련 특성 및 훈련 활용도를 살펴보았다. 고용가능성, 경력단계등에서의 차이에 따라 이들을 제1직업기(30~45세), 경력전환준비기(46~52세), 경력전환기(53~60세), 퇴직후가교일자리기(61세~68세)로 나누어 살펴본 결과 나이가 많은 그룹일수록 컴퓨터활용수업에서 어려움을 느꼈으며 취업결과가 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 훈련활용도를 취업에서 뿐 아니라 진로탐색, 노후생활준비 및 취미활동 등의 측면에서 살펴보았을 때, 경력전환기의 경우 진로탐색 활용이 높았으며 퇴직후가교일자리기의 훈련생들은 노후준비 및 취미활동으로 활용하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 훈련활용도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 살펴보기 위해 회귀분석을 실시한 결과, 훈련난이도 인식, 진로적응성이 진로탐색 및 노후준비에 영향을 미쳤고 취업에는 이전 경력연관성, 진로장벽인식, 훈련난이도 인식, 관계능력이 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과에 따르면 중 고령자의 무경계경력 관점에서의 직업훈련 활용은 취업보다 진로탐색이나 노후생활 준비 쪽에 초점이 맞추어져야 할 필요가 있다. 또한 본 연구에 근거, 직업훈련에 진로장벽에 대한 긍정적인 태도형성 및 관계역량을 기를 수 있는 내용을 포함하는 등 중 고령자의 특성 및 수요에 맞는 교육 훈련과정의 개발을 제언하는 바이다.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of the degree of preparation for old age and the sense of crisis on the marital satisfaction of married mid-life women. The participants in this study were 300 women ranging in age from 40 to 59 years residing in Gyeonggi-do. Two hundred and forty-nine self-reported questionnaires were used for final analysis by SPSS PASW 18.0. The major results of this study were as follows. First, the mean score on the sense of crisis scale was $2.56{\pm}0.65$, representing a medium level. The mean scores for degree of preparation for later life and marital satisfaction were $3.54{\pm}0.57$ and $3.67{\pm}0.88$, which were somewhat high. Second, socio-demographic characteristics have a significant influence on married, middle-aged women. There were primarily differences in the sense of crisis by age cohort(such as women in their 50s) and level of education. Moreover, there were differences in the degree of preparation for later life by marriage duration and differences in marital satisfaction by level of education, monthly average income, and employment status. Third, in multiple regression analysis, the variables significantly influencing the marital satisfaction of married, middle-aged women included health status and monthly average income as control variables. Mid-life crisis also had a significant effect. The degree of preparation for emotional later life had a significant effect as an independent variable. These findings suggest that the level of sense of crisis and the degree of preparation for emotional later life affected the women's marital satisfaction. Other factors did not have a significant affect. Based on the above results, intervention alternatives are needed to improve the marital satisfaction of married, middle-aged women.
