The purpose of this research was to determine the effect of baking and pastry activity programs on the cognitive function of the elderly with dementia. The study was carried out on 19 elderly with dementia who attended K city C daycare center and who provided consent. A total of 10 elderly were assigned to the experimental group, and the other nine were assigned to the control group. To test the effectiveness of the program, this research used the pretest-posttest control group design. The experimental group administered the program from January 2, 2017 to February 28, 2017. However, the control group did not undergo a separate program. Fisher's accuracy test was performed to identify the homogeneity of the experimental and control groups. Mann-Whitney U Test was conducted to identify the homogeneity of the cognitive functions of the experimental and control groups prior to the launch of the program. Wilcoxon Matched-Pairs Signed-Rank and Mann-Whitney U Test were conducted to determine the effects of the program on the cognitive function of the elderly with dementia. As a result, the program verified the effect on the cognitive function of the elderly with dementia. According to these findings, the important issues and limitations of the research are discussed.

To analyze die quality characteristics of loaf bread added with waxy black rice flour by its storage period, this study stored loaf bread made of wheat flour added with 10% 20% 30% and 40% of waxy black rice flour for 4 days while measuring water activity, pH, chromaticity and texture. The results of die study are as follows. Based on die results of measurements of water activity of loaf bread added with waxy black rice flour by storage period, die control group and die groups added with 10% and 20% of waxy black rice flour showed significantly low water activity from the $3_{rd}$ day of storage and die groups added with 30% and 40% of waxy black rice flour from the $2_{nd}$ day of storage. As for pH changes over the storage period, only die group added with 40% of waxy black rice flour showed significant pH decreases from die $3_{rd}$ day of storage while the control group and the groups added with 10% and 30% of waxy black rice flour showed significant pH decreases from die $2_{nd}$day of storage. As for the pH of each group of loaf bread by storage days, die loaf bread added with 40% of waxy black rice flour showed significantly higher pH compared to the control group. Brightness decreased significantly from the 2nd day of storage and die yellowness from the $3_{rd}$ day of storage. As for chromaticity changes by storage days, as die amount of added waxy black rice flour increased, L values and b values decreased while redness values significantly increased. Over die storage period, hardness, gumminess and chewiness increased and die waxy black rice flour added groups showed lower increase rates compared to die control group. Especially, die groups added with 30% and 40% of waxy black rice flour showed low hardness changes. Springiness level was decreased as die addition rate of waxy black rice flour was increased, and the group added with 40% of waxy balck rice flour showed die lowest springiness level. It also showed lower cohesiveness up to the 3rd day of storage compared to die day of manufacturing. Therefore, it could be seen that die loaf bread made from wheat flour added with 30% of waxy black rice flour showed better quality feature until die $3_{rd}$ day of storage than die other experimental groups.

Danggui leaf (Angelica acutiloba Kitagawa) has numerous dietary fiber and healthy functional properties such as anti-inflammatory activity. However, it is usually discarded after its roots are harvested. For wide application of danggui leaf, squeezed danggui leaf juice was used for making pan bread. Treatments included imported wheat flour (IMWF) and domestic wheat flour (DOWF) as a control, 1% soluble solid contents of squeezed danggui leaf juice instead of wheat flour (1% SDLJ), 2% SDLJ, 3% SDLJ, and 4% SDLJ. In the fermentation expansion, dough volume was not significantly different between DOWF and 1% SDLJ, whereas it decreased according to increased amount of squeezed danggui leaf juice. Regarding physical properties, springiness and cohesiveness decreased according to increased amount of squeezed danggui leaf juice and longer storage period. Gumminess, brittleness, and hardness increased according to increased amount of squeezed danggui leaf juice, although these were not statistically different among IMWF, DOWF, and 1% SDLJ after making pan bread. Principal component analysis (PCA) was performed to assess the correlation between storage period and physical properties. In the PCA, variance proportion of principal component (PC) 1 was 0.87 while that of PC 2 was 0.10. Further, 1% SDLJ showed similar results as DOWF and INWF after making pan bread and after 3 days of storage. In conclusion, use of 1% SDLJ is desirable for making squeezed danggui leaf juice.
