  • This study aimed to develop Korean types of the university-based continuing care retirement community. CCRCs (Continuing care retirement communities), where senior residents are guaranteed to get continuous cares without moving out even under their deteriorating health condition, has been identified as the appropriate residences that can accommodate aging-in-place needs. Aging-in-place may be ideal for the increasing senior population and older households. Recently in the United States, as many retirees looked for intellectually and physically active environments that also offer intergenerational programs, university-based retirement communities (UBRCs) became popular and their number reached 60 campuses nationwide. This numbers is expected to grow significantly over the next two decades. We conducted case studies that targeted two representative UBRCs and identified four categories of main features. They were general characteristics, architectural features, services or programs, and management system. This study result highlighted key features of the UBRCs that can be the foundation for the future UBRCs development in Korea.

  • The purpose of this study was to find out the variables affecting the successful aging of the elderly. To achieve this purpose, a survey was conducted with 388 seniors living in the Jeonbuk area. The data were analyzed using multiple regressions and a path analysis. The major findings were as follows: First, statistically significantly different perception of successful aging was observed according to their marital status. Second, successful aging of the elderly with a spouse was influenced by personal variables, such as their own perception of economic status, gender, education level and physical condition. In contrast, successful aging of the elderly without a spouse was most influenced by social variables, such as family support. Third, the attitude towards aging directly affected successful aging. Various personal and social characteristics indirectly affected successful aging via attitudes towards aging according to the presence of a spouse.

  • 이 논문은 노령견이 필요한 영양을 다루며, 노령견이 필요로 하는 영양평가를 검토하고, 노령화와 관련하여 흔히 발생할 수 있는 영양의 문제점들을 등을 제시하고자 한다. 즉, 이연구의 목표는 노령견의 노령화와 관련된 생리적인 변화, 필수영양소 및 그와 관련된 질병을 탐구하는데 있다. 2002년의 조사에 의하면, 미국에서 기르는 반려견의 30%-40%는 나이가 7세이상이라고 한다. 유렵의 경우 1983년과 1995년을 비교했을 때 나이가 7세이상의 반려견의 수는 약 50% 늘었다고 한다. 2012에 미국에서 실시한 이메일 조사에 의하면, 50,347명의 응답자 중에서 33.2%가 6살-10살의 노령견을 기르고 있으며, 11살이상의 노령견을 기르는 응답자는 14.7%라고 한다. 가정에서 기르는 반려견의 평균수명은 건강관리, 노령화 및 영양에 영향을 받는다. 그리고 견종, 유전, 영양, 환경 등의 요소에 따라서 노령화의 정도가 다르다. 10살이 넘은 많은 반려견들이 활력이 넘치고 건강하다고 할지라도, 대부분의 반려견들은 5세-6세가 되면, 노령화와 관련된 징조를 보이기 시작한다. 여러가지 질병을 치유할 수 있는 의학의 발달과 영양의 발달로 인하여, 반려견의 평균수명은 점점 증가하고 있다. '노령견을 위한 영양의 목표'는 노령견이 건강하고 활력 넘치게 하며, 노령과 관련된 건강상의 문제가 늦게 시작되고, 노령화를 지연시키며, 삶의 질을 향상시키며, 기대수명을 늘리는데 있다. 노령화는 생리적인 변화를 가져온다. 우리가 육안으로 명백하게 느낄 수 있는 변화들은 털의 색깔이 하얗게 변하는 것, 몸의 기력이 떨어는 것, 시각이나 청각 등의 감각기관에 문제가 오는 것 등이 있으며, 표면적으로 느끼기 어려운 변화들은 소화관, 면역시스템, 신장 등 장기와 관련된 생리적인 변화들이다. 반려견이 필요로 하는 영양은 나이에 따라서 다르다. 또한 노령화가 진행됨에 따라서 발생할 수 있는 영양과 관련된 많은 질병들이 있으며, 이러한 질병에는 영양이 매우 중요하다.

  • 최근 우리사회는 사회경제적으로 급격한 변화를 맞이하고 있다. 세계에서 가장 빠른 속도로 고령화가 진행되는 가운데 베이비붐 세대의 퇴직이 본격화되고 있다. 이러한 베이비붐 세대는 지난 70~80년대 우리경제발전의 주역으로 퇴직 후 재취업의 현실적 어려움과 미흡한 노후준비 및 이들의 복지와 의료문제 등이 국가적 현안으로 대두되고 있다. 이에 정부는 금년부터 시니어의 강점을 적극 활용하여 생산적 경제활동 참여를 위해 시니어창업육성정책을 수립하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 시니어창업의 중요성에도 불구하고 시니어의 욕구와 시니어창업의 구체적인 특성을 규명하는 연구는 전무한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 시니어의 구체적인 특성과 창업의도 및 성공창업의 핵심역량인 기업가정신에 미치는 영향을 실증적으로 분석하고 시니어창업의 활성화 방안을 제시하였다.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 노화에 따른 작업기억능력의 저하에 영향을 받는 자막인식위치에 대해 탐구하는 것이다. 이를 위해, 본 연구에는 주니어 집단(평균 나이: 26세, 표준편차: 3.06, N=27)과 시니어 집단(평균 나이: 61.69세, 표준편차: 4.18, N=26)이 참여했으며, 실험 과제로는 실험 참가자들의 작업기억능력을 측정하기 위한 N-back 과제와 자막인식위치를 측정하기 위한 동영상자막확인 과제가 사용되었다. N-back 과제 수행 결과, 시니어 집단이 주니어 집단보다 과제에 대한 반응속도가 느리고 정답률이 낮게 나타나, 시니어 집단은 주니어 집단에 비해 작업기억능력의 저하가 나타났다는 것을 의미했다. 또한, 동영상자막확인 과제 수행 결과, 노화에 따른 작업기억능력의 저하에 부정적인 영향을 받는 자막위치는 화면의 '좌측-아래'이고 긍정적인 영향을 받는 자막위치는 화면의 '좌측-가운데'으로 나타났다. 나머지 화면 위치에서는 노화에 따른 작업기억능력의 저하에 영향을 받지 않았다. 결과적으로 본 연구 결과를 통해서 연령의 증가에 따른 작업기억능력의 저하에 부정적 혹은 긍정적 영향을 받는 영상 속 자막인식위치에 대해서 살펴볼 수 있었으며, 이는 영상에 자막을 제시해야할 경우 시청자의 연령을 고려하여 자막위치를 선정하면 효율적으로 시청자에게 정보를 제공할 수 있다는 것을 의미했다.

  • This study aims at applying Photoshop functions to digital make-up(DM) for aging effect based upon the knowledge of phrenology, comparing the result with that of the real or off-line make-up(OM) and identifying any possible difference between two methods: which contributes to understanding the potential and problems of DM at application level. This study aims at suggesting a method to apply computer graphics(CGs) to special effect make-up for aging effect through a case, contributing to attracting academic concerns and building theoretical frameworks for DM. It used 'Aging Process' in Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended(CS4E) to change a young girl into a senior lady. In the process of DM, the study applies various tools and methods to making face wrinkled, finds the most effective way among them for each area of face, suggests a method to integrate the ways and shows the result of the method. Compared with OM, DM using CS4E is the less constrained work regarding procedure and time. Specifically, it can save the time tremendously because the reiterative operation of work can be omitted, when the same work is repeated, using 'Action' function which memorizes the history of the work. Once a DM work is produced, since it is durable, reusable and convertible to various images with additional operations, it seems very economical as well as highly promising to market the work through on-line sales. Regarding face features and skin, it reviewed literature in make-up and phrenology while it used Photoshop CS4 Extended tools to demonstrate a case of aging effect by combining and painting pictures of a young lady and a senior citizen.

  • In recent study, we are referencing the necessity by examining the environment for housing policies for elderly Koreans. In reality, Japan, who is ahead of our country, has already experienced and is currently in progress for the aging society. They have developed a profound housing policy under all circumstances with the change of aging society. There forth, we are in progress of examining the series of helpful characteristics being presented by Japan, and how they have expanded and improved their housing support services. Our country must clearly ensure a resolution for investigating a new direction in housing policy and housing support services by learning through the development process of Japan's housing support services for the aging society. For instance, Japan have provided housing policy in both housing and welfare for senior citizens. Recently, the reason they are well adjusted for housing and welfare linked with special care and supportive living services and being skillfully focused on the maintenance policy is because they have great implications on how to successively organize housing policies for the aged society. Recent studies show preferred living arrangement and housing policy of the elderly for stabilization in the aging society. First, must be aware of the leading factors for housing in later life, organize dwelling patterns for diverse characteristics and give consideration for future life plans. Second, must continuously maintain an accessible environment in all community levels without changing the required services in their livelihood by adjusting to diverse changes for the aged. In addition, must organize flexibility in choice following these housing-support services for the elderly's desire and self reliance which raises profound questions on cultural policy.

  • The $1^{st}$ National Plan for Aging Society with Low Fertility, which the Korean government announced in 2006, caused the gradual increase of R&D investment in order to prepare for an aging society in Korea. This study explores if the directions and strategies of R&D projects related to aging are suitable to improve the quality of life for elderly people and establish a sustainable aging society by analyzing the features of R&D investment from 2004 to 2010. The results show that most R&D projects conducted by departments focus on the development of assistive devices for the elderly to support everyday lives. The Korean government's R&D policy to prepare for an aging society is based on the narrow interpretation of Quality of Life (QoL) in an aging society that tries to resolve the socioeconomic problems of the elderly; however, the policies have ignored the independence of active elderly individuals and the social integration of the young and elderly generations. The research shows that a paradigm shift is required from a 'Senior' to 'Aging Society' because almost 1/3 of the Korean population is over 65 years old and the expansion of the research embraces from assistive technologies for the elderly to the design of social infrastructure such as transportation, education and work.
