Objectives: This study was conducted to analyze the hwa-byung, self-perceived health, life-stress, social support, depression, and factors affecting on suicidal ideation in community dwelling elders. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional descriptive study. The subjects were 165 elderly in I city. The data was collected from November $21^{st}$ to December $5^{th}$ of 2014 by using structured questionnaire. T-test, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression were performed by SPSS/PC 17.0. Results: There were more females than males in hwa-byung (t=.-3.068, p=.003). In the visit parent, more than once a month was a significantly higher in social support (t=.3.333, p=.001). Hwa-byung (t=.-2.577, p=.011), life-stress (t=.-3.800, p=.001), depression (t=.-2.776, p=.006), and suicidal ideation (t=.-4.316, p<.001) were shown to be high in the elders with lower level of living. Subjects with health insurance had high self-perceived health (t=-3.800, p=.001) and low hwa-byung (t=-4.102, p<.001), life-stress (t=-4.482, p<.001), depression (t=-5.296, p<.001), and suicidal ideation (t=.-2.152, p=.036), according to the type of insurance. In the correlation, sleeping hours (r=-.180, p=.020), self-perceived health (r=-.364, p,.001), and suicidal ideation had negative correlation; hwa-byung (r=.404, p<.001), life-stress (r=.300, p<.001), social support (r=-.310, p<.001), depression (r=.423, p<.001) and suicidal ideation had positive correlation. Factors affecting the suicidal ideation in community dwelling elders were depression (${\beta}$=.42, p<.001), hwa-byung (${\beta}$=.23, p=.004), social support (${\beta}$=-.18, p=.012), and level of living (${\beta}$=.24, p=.001). Discussion: For the prevention of elderly suicide, it is necessary to care for psychosocial status and solve economic difficulties through social support.

우리나라 발달장애인의 시설입소율은 다른 장애유형에 매우 높은 편이다. 따라서 발달장애인의 지역사회 삶을 지원하는 '커뮤니티 케어'는 다른 장애유형에 비해 매우 중요하다. 하지만 우리나라는 장애가족이 돌봄의 주체가 되어 부양부담을 호소하고 있다. 본 연구는 일본의 발달장애인의 지역사회 자립지원에 대한 기관방문과 인터뷰를 통해 실천사례를 분석하였다. 연구결과 일본 발달장애인의 지역사회로의 전환은 그룹홈을 중심으로 이루어지고 있었다. 민간은 그룹홈에서 중증장애인까지도 지역사회 생활이 가능하도록 지원하고 있으며, 삿포르시청은 고령부모의 발달장애인 돌봄문제 해결을 위한 민간연계를 진행하고 있었다. 이에 우리나라의 정책적 제언으로 그룹홈 확대와 장애인 거주시설의 기능전환, 고령부모의 장애인 돌봄 문제 대처, 청장년 독거인의 실태조사로 예방적 서비스의 제공을 제언한다. 실천적 제언으로는 자립을 위한 일상생활 능력향상을 위한 그림 등의 교육교재 개발과 보급, 자립생활을 위한 직업훈련에서 충분한 인력과 시설 확충, 성인 발달장애인과 보호자를 위한 쉼터 운영이 필요할 것이다.

한국에서 노인들의 자살문제가 점점 중요한 사회 문제로 부각되고 있는데 비해, 자살현상과 효과적으로 자살을 예방할 수 있는 요인에 대한 연구는 상대적으로 부족했다. 자살에 대한 생각은 자살 시도와 수행에 영향을 미치는 중요한 변수이기 때문에, 본 연구에서는 노인을 대상으로 자살생각에 영향을 미치는 주요한 변수를 도출하는데 그 목적을 두었다. 스트레스-소질 모델(Stress-diathesis Model)에 기반을 둔 본 연구는, 자살생각에 직접적으로 영향을 줄 수 있는 소질 요인과 스트레스 요인을 파악하였다. 또한 이 연구는 이들 요인간 유의미한 상호작용을 검증하였다. 분석 결과, 거주형태(독거)와 우울증이 자살생각의 유의미한 주요 선행변수로 나타났다. 또한 신경증과 우울증, 신경증과 생활사건의 상호작용 효과는 자살생각에 대한 강력한 설명력을 보여줌으로써, 스트레스 소질 모델이 노인의 자살 생각을 설명할 수 있는 적절한 모델임을 시사해주고 있다. 이러한 연구 결과는 향후 노인들의 자살을 방지할 수 있는 프로그램을 개발하는데 유용한 정보를 제공하고, 관련 연구에 다양한 시사점을 제공하는데 의미가 있다고 하겠다. 마지막으로 연구의 한계점과 미래 연구의 방향에 대해서 논의하였다.

Objectives : To investigate the prevalence of cognitive impairment and dementia in elderly people, aged 65 or above, residing in Busan Metropolitan City. Methods : Total of 1,101 old people, aged 65 or above, living in Busan as of December 31, 2001 were selected using stratified three-stage cluster sampling. Cognitive impairment was determined from the MMSE-K score, and dementia confirmed from five psychometric measures and the Barthel index. The crude prevalence, sex-age adjusted for the Korean population, were obtained. Results : With the cut-off point for cognitive impairment was set at 24 points, or below, on the MMSE-K scale, the crude rate of cognitive impairment was 29.3% (15.7% for men and 37.5% for women), and the sex-age adjusted prevalence was 30.5% (17.5% for men and 37.0% for women). When the cut-off point for cognitive impairment was set at 20 points, or below, on the MMSE-K scale, the crude rate of cognitive impairments were 10.0% (4.1% for men and 13.5% for women), and 10.6% (4.7% for men and 13.1% for women), respectively. The crude dementia, and the sex-age adjusted rates were 7.4% (2.4% for men and 10.5% for women), and 8.0% (2.7% for men and 10.0% for women), respectively. Conclusions : The prevalence of dementia in this study was somewhat lower than that reported by other domestic and foreign studies. Our results related to the difference in time and space, diagnostic tools, response rates, and distribution of male and female subjects, etc.

This study was intended to find out the factors affecting to the IADL, allowing objective assessment of physical function status of increasing elderly populations. The subjects of 635 elderly persons aged over 65 years old who live in Taejon metropolitan city were interviewed during the two-month period from June to July of 2000. The IADL of Older American Resources and Services(OARS), developed in Duke medical college of USA, was interpreted for use. The study results were statistically processed using SPSSWIN(ver 10.0) and conferred the following results: 1. Among the seven items of IADL, the women showed higher rates of 'yes' in items about using the telephone, getting to the places out of walking distance, going shopping for groceries, taking their own medicine while outnumbered by the men only in the item about managing their own money, without significant differences between them in items about preparing their own meals and doing their own housework. 2. In terms of IADL scores, $82.0\%$ of subjects showed the normal range of scores and $18.0\%$ were under the normal range, meaning dysfunction IADL. Specifications of general characteristics revealed that more dysfunctional were the male subjects, the higher age groups who are more than 75 years old, the higher educated groups, the groups who live in nursing homes, the groups without a spouse. 3. Based on daily activities, lower scores of IADL were found in the subjects who don't go out, who don't have recreational activities, who don't attend elderly gatherings in their neighborhood, who don't hold social meetings. Specifications of psychological traits revealed that more dysfunctional were IADL in the subjects who don't feel satisfied with their lives of the past or the present, who have a deep feeling of isolation, and who don't have the will to live. 4. Among 7 items of health habits, only the subjects who don't regular exercise had lower scores of IADL than those who do. According to HPI, the lower HPI, the more dysfunctional. 5. Based on the factors associated with IADL, the odds ratio of the subjects who don't live together with their families were 1.53 times that of the ones who do, who are educated 3.22 times that of the ones who are not, who don't have spouses 2.09 times that of the ones who do, who don't go out 4.35 times that of the ones who frequently go out, who don't recreational activities for an interest 2.64 times that of the ones who do, who don't attend elderly gatherings in their neighborhood 1.47 times that of the ones who do, who don't hold social meetings 2.23 times that of the ones who do, who don't feel satisfied with their present living 1.43 times that of the ones who do, who have a feeling of isolation 1.53times that of the ones who don'1, who have the weak will to live 3.21 times that of the ones who have the strong one, and who don't regular exercise 2.45 times that of the ones who do. 6. Logistic regression analysis of the study results found that such factors are significantly related as the degree of education, with/without spouse, social meetings, the will to live, and regular exercise, and that higher rates of dysfunctional subjects were in the more educated group, in the group without spouse, in the group who don't frequently go out, who don't have social meetings, who have the weak will to live, and who don't exercise.

Using Zung's self-rating depression scale, the authors studied depression in 310 elderlies residing in the 9 home for the aged (HFA) in Kyungbuk area, and 234 elderlies living in Taegu city and 107 elderlies attending a Life-long education program in Taegu, which serve as a control group, Community resident elderlies(CRE). The research had been administered during the period from June to August, 1986. The results were as follows : 1. The mean scores of male. female. and the total of the elderlies in HFA were $38.95{\pm}11.55$, $44.18{\pm}14.15$:: and $42.8{\pm}13.7$ respectively while CRE marked $40.8{\pm}11.3$ for male, $45.2{\pm}12.0$ for female, and $43.4{\pm}11.9$ for the total. Therefore there were significant differences between male and female in both groups(p<0.01, p<0.001), though no significant difference between the two groups. However, the depression score of elderlies in HFA might be much higher than that of CRE if 81 elderlies(14.2%) in HFA who had been left out of the statistical evaluation due to their having severe depression, organic brain syndrom, or pseudoementia, etc had been included. 2. The score distribution by items for the elderlies in HFA were from highest scores hopelessness, worthlessness, emptiness, decreased appetite, confusion, while for CRE, hopelessness, decreased appetite, psychomotor retardation, indecisiveness, and worthlessness. Elderlies in HFA showed significantly high scores in depressed mood, weight loss, suicidal rumination(ideation) and psychomotor excitement, while CRE showed significantly high scores in decreased appetite, psychomotor retardation, indecisiveness, and dissatisfaction. 3. Elderlies who scored over 50 numbered 10 males(16%), 57 females(34%), and total of 67(29%) in HFA and 28 males(21%), 77 females(37%), and total of 105(31%) in CRE : female showed higher seores in both groups. 4. Psychosocial factors such as getting older(respectively p<0.01, p<0.01), being Buddhist(respectively p<0.01, p<0.01), and monthly pocket money less than \30,000(respectively p<0.001, p<0.001) were found to have a noticable impact on the depression level of the elderlies in both groups. Factors such as illiteracy (p<0.001, monthly pocket money less than \10,000(p<0.05), and having no family(p<0.01) recorded significantly higher scores among CRE than the elderlies in HFA.
