The new way of doing education in the cyber space is not limited by time or locations. The students do not need to attend classroom physically and simultaneously. This study tries to probe the relationships among demographic variables and instructional variables with students' satisfaction with the management class in a cyber university. The results demonstrate that demographic variables are not significantly related with students' satisfaction. Rather instructional variables such as personal interactions with professors, job related contents and careful reduction of difficulties countered during the class proceeding are more significantly related with learning satisfaction. The result shows the newly emerged internet based education system requires in-depth cooperation among professors, system engineers, education instrument designers, and students.

The study aims to identify residents' perceptions of tourism impacts according to the demographic characteristics. The analysis was based on 366 questionnaires given to residents of six rural communities in rural Korea. A series of data analysis such as factor analysis, t-test, and ANOVA was conducted to investigate the residents perceptions of tourism impacts. Results showed that whereas younger, less educated and poor could perceive a negative impacts. older, educated and richer were more likely to perceive a positive impacts of economic, social and environmental spheres. Especially male was more likely to perceive a positive socio-cultural impacts, whereas female was perceive a negative impacts. The results suggest that it is important for policy makers and community leaders to consider social-cultural and economic impact when decision making on development planning.

This paper utilizes a life-cycle overlapping-generations model to quantify the welfare effects of plans to postpone the depletion of the National Pension Fund. In order for the model to incorporate the rapidly changing demographic structure of Korea fully, we build and calibrate a model in transition directly. The model is considered suitable for analyzing the effects of demographic changes on the Korean economy and the effects of plans to change the National Pension System. According to a simulation of the model, to postpone the depletion of the National Pension Fund for 30 years, the premium rate must be increased to 18.3% from the current rate of 9%. By postponing the depletion of the fund reserve, young and future generations gain significantly at the expense of the older generations. The simulation results should be, however, interpreted as meaning that the current system is unjustifiably partial to the older generations. Moreover, given the current premium rate, it is desirable to strengthen the income-redistribution function of the National Pension System.

목적: 안경사 인력 공급 및 수요 분석을 통해 향후 안경사 인력의 수급전망을 추계하여 안경사 인력수급계획 수립에 필요한 정책자료를 제공하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 방법: 안경사 인력의 공급추계는 추계유형으로는 기초추계(baseline projection method)와, 추계방법으로는 유입유출법(method of in-and-out moves)과 인구학적 방법(demographic method)을 사용하였다. 안경사 수요추계는 의사수와 인구수를 적용한 비(ratio)에 의한 방법을 사용하였다. 결과: 수급비교결과 '의사수 대비' 방법 하에서는 2010년에 83명~700명의 안경사 공급과잉 현상이 발생하고 2025년에는 15명의 공급부족에서 6,118명의 공급과잉 현상이 발생한다. 또한 '인구수 대비' 의 방법 하에서는 2010년에 1,055명에서 2025년에 9,376명의 안경사 공급과잉 현상이 발생할 것으로 전망된다. 결론: 수급추계방법에 따라 수급불균형 정도가 다소 달라지지만, 안경사 인력은 전반적으로 공급과잉이 예상된다. 향후 안경사 공급은 최근 의료수요의 특성과 함께 안경사 인력수급 변동요인을 감안하여 적정수준의 인력이 공급될 수 있도록 신축성 있게 대처해 나가야 할 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to generate theoretical and policy suggestions on the policy for elderly welfare by comparatively analyzing factors related to life satisfaction for the male and female elderly. The survey subjects were 403 people over 60 years old who lived in J city of Gyeongsangnam-do Province, with 214 male elderly and 189 female elderly participants. Factors, that commonly had aninfluence on life satisfaction in the male and female elderly included subjective health level and subjective economic level. A gender difference was apparent among the male and female elderly for the male elderly, age had a primary influence on life satisfaction. However, for the female elderly, academic background, religion, and frequency of contact with children had a large influence. Accordingly, the female elderly were seen to be influenced more by environment than the male elderly. This study will help to generate a comprehensive understanding of diversity among the male and female elderly, contribute to improving diverse elements in the environment and to laying out a plan an elderly welfare policy that will increase life satisfaction among the male and female elderly, and offer implications for further research that will be conducive to understanding the differences between male and female elderly people.

여행시장에 있어 인구의 고령화는 새로운 표적시장의 증가라는 점에서 의미가 있고 국가정책 측면에서는 복지관광수요의 증가라는 의미를 갖는다. 날로 첨예화되는 시장경쟁과 새로운 시장 창출이라는 당면과제를 안고 있는 여행업계의 입장에서는 새로운 수익창출 대안으로서 노인관광시장을 주목할 필요가 있다. 한편, 향후 우리사회에 심각한 문제가 될 수 있는 노인문제를 해결하기 위한 방안으로 복지관광 측면에서 노인관광에 접근할 수 있는데, 이는 여러 가지 노인 여가활동 중 관광이 노인들의 생활만족도에 미치는 영향이 타 여가활동보다 상대적으로 높다는 점에 착안한다. 본 연구에서는 청주지역 노인들을 대상으로 인구통계적 특성 및 여행활동 특성이 생활만족에 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 실증적으로 분석하였다. 분석의 결과, 생활수준, 건강상태, 용돈수준이 높은 노인 집단일수록 생활만족도가 높은 것으로 나타났으나 여행형태에 따른 생활만족의 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과를 토대로 본 논문에서는 실무적 시사점과 정책과제에 대한 시사점을 제시하였다.

Background: This study aimed to explore the associations of social-demographic, health-behavioral, and woman-specific factors with the non-screening status of the cervical cancer screening test in Korean adult women. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional analysis of 9,698 Korean adult women aged 20 years or more who participated in the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys V (2010-2012). Rao-Scott chi-square tests and survey logistic regression analyses were employed respectively to analyze the difference in the non-screening status of the cervical cancer screening test by each characteristic and to explore the factors related to the non-screening status. Results: The rate of the non-screening status of the cervical cancer screening test was 53.5% over the previous 2 years. In the survey logistics regression analysis, age, marital status, educational levels, income levels, residential area, occupation, private health insurance, smoking, alcohol, obesity, menstrual status, pregnancy experience, and hormone replacement therapy were significantly associated with the non-screening status of the cervical cancer screening test. Conclusion: On the basis of the results of this study, some social-demographic, health-behavioral, and woman-specific characteristics of Korean adult women seem to affect the non-screening status of the cervical cancer screening test. Therefore, appropriate health policies need to be designed, implemented, monitored, and evaluated to reduce the non-screening status of the cervical cancer screening test of them.

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.

Korea has pursued an aggressive policy of inviting more foreign-born students to its universities since the late 1990s in the wake of the globalization of education markets and its changing demographic structure. While increasingly more students from Asia come to Korea for study, more than half of the graduates return home upon graduation. Given the issues of brain drain, brain circulation, and knowledge transfer that are raised by such a high return rate, this paper examines the factors that frame the foreign students' decision on their post-graduation careers. By analyzing survey data, we report that Asian students majoring in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) are more likely to return than non-STEM majors. This suggests that Korea's aggressive policies of inviting foreign-born students have contributed to brain circulation and knowledge transfer between Korea and the other Asian countries. We also find that scholarships from Korean sources and positive attitudes toward Korean culture and life increase their inclination to stay in the country upon graduation. These findings, however, raise more questions than answers, since it becomes obvious that their post-graduation decisions are highly affected by what Korea as a society provides.

본 연구는 인구학적 변인으로 새로운 미디어 이용변인을 활용할 필요가 있는지를 살펴보기 위한 것이다. 이를 위해 대전 시민 500명을 대상으로 2011년 7월에 설문조사를 실시하고 그 결과를 분석했다. 분석결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 성, 연령, 소득 같은 기존의 인구학적 변인의 설명력이 여전히 유효한 것으로 나타났으나 종속변인에 대한 설명력은 크지 않았다. 기존 인구학적 변인에 새로운 미디어 이용변인(인터넷 이용빈도, SNS 이용빈도, 스마트폰 이용 여부)을 추가하여 회귀분석을 실시한 결과 온난화, 대중교통, 국정지지의 세가지 주제의 경우 설명력이 유의미한 증가를 하는 것으로 나타났다. 결과적으로 새로운 미디어 이용요인은 여러 이슈에 대해 안정적인 설명력을 갖지는 못했으나 시민의 국정지지 성향을 이해하거나 지구온난화 같은 새로운 의제에 대한 태도를 이해하는 과정에서는 활용할 가치가 있다고 할 수 있다.
