본 연구는 염분 스트레스가 고들빼기(Crepidiastrum sonchifolium)의 항산화 및 항염증 활성에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위해 NaCl를 농도별로 0, 50, 100, 200 mM 6주간 처리한 후, 식물체 전체를 채취하여 70% 에탄올 추출물을 제조하였다. NaCl 처리 농도 0, 100, 50 mM 순으로 DPPH 라디칼 소거율이 높게 나타났으며, 200mM 처리군에서는 가장 낮은 라디칼 소거율을 보였다. 총 페놀 및 총 플라보노이드 함량 또한 NaCl 농도에 따라 항산화 활성과 매우 유사한 결과를 나타냈으며, 식물의 페놀 화합물이 염분 스트레스에 대한 항산화 능력에 기여할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 또한, NaCl 처리 고들빼기 추출물이 LPS로 자극한 마우스 대식세포주(Raw 264.7)에서 NO 생성 억제에 미치는 영향을 비교한 결과, NaCl 농도별 모든 그룹의 1,000㎍/mL 처리군에서 LPS에 의해 유도된 NO 생성량이 유의적으로 감소하였으나, NaCl 100mM 및 200mM 처리군의 고농도(1,000㎍/mL) 처리는 세포생존에 부정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 결과는 건강한 상태의 식물체에서 라디칼 소거능이 가장 우수하며, 100mM NaCl 처리농도까지 염분 스트레스에 대응하기 위한 항산화 물질을 생산하지만, 200mM의 높은 NaCl 농도는 오히려 식물체 생리활성에 부정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 판단된다. 고들빼기의 경우 100mM 이하의 NaCl 처리는 항산화 활성에 영향을 줄 수 있으며, 이전에 보고된 생장 지표의 결과와 비교하였을 때, 50mM 이하의 NaCl 처리 환경에서 식물의 생장 및 생리활성에 긍정적인 영향을 줄 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

영양부근 반변천이 절단감입곡류를 하여 생신 구유로상에 약 7m 두께의 토탄지가 형성되어 있다. 이 토탄지를 대상으로 boring 자료분석과 화분분석을 실시하여 토탄지의 지형발달과 제4기 식생 및 기후환경변화를 검토하였다. 구유로상(연지와 원당지 일대)에 토탄지가 형성된 것은 주위산지에서 공급된 선상지성 퇴적물에 의해 구유로가 막혀 습지가 형성되었기 때문에 가능했던 것으로 볼 수 있다. 토탄층은 그 특징에 따라 하부층과 상부층으로 구분되며, 이들 사이에는 부정합관계가 있다. 탄소 연대측정자료, 각 화분분대 화분조성상의 특징, 토탄퇴적속도 등으로 볼 때, 하부토탄층은 대략 60,000년 BP경부터 퇴적되기 시작하여 만빙기까지, 상부토탄층은 완신세 중기경부터 거의 현재까지 형성된 것으로 추정된다. boring지점 1(YY1)과 지점 2(YY2)의 토탄층 화분분석결과는 수목류의 우점시기로 대비할 때, 총 다섯개의 화분대(화분대 YYI, YYII, YYIII, YYIV와 YYV)와 12개의 아분대로 구분되었다. 두지점 간에는 퇴적상 뿐 아니라 화분조성에서도 일견 차이가 있다. 즉, 공통적으로 화분대 III이 존재했으나 화분대 I, II는 주상도 YY1에서만, 화분대 IV와 V는 주상도 YY2에서만 나타났다. 하부토탄층은 화분대 I, II, III시기를 포함하며, NAP시기로서 쑥(Artemisia)속, 오이풀(Sanguisorba)속, 미니라과(Umbelliferae), 벼과(Gramineae)와 사초과(Cyperaceae)등 초본류의 비율이 월등히 높고, 한냉기 수목으로 출현하는 가문비나무(Picea)속, 소나무(Pinus)속, 자작나무(Betula)속 등의 목본류를 포함하며, 이들 목본류의 절대화분량은 상부토탄층에 비해 극히 적어 산림밀도가 낮은 Wurm빙기의 식생경관을 나타내었다. 상부토탄층은 화분대 IVb, V시기를 포함하며, AP시기로서 Pinus와 Quercus 등이 높은 비율로 나타내고 절대 화분량도 많아, 홀로세 온난기의 삼림경관를 나타내었다. 각 화분대 및 아분대 우점수목의 기후환경에 대응하는 생태적 특징으로 작성한 가상 기온변화곡선의 내용은 다음과 같다: 화분대 I은 Butula우점기로서 약 57,000년 BP까지 형성되었으며, 상대적 한냉기로 간주된다. 화분대 II는 EMW우점시기로서 $57,000{\sim}43$,000년 BP에 형성되었으며, Alt Wurm에서 mittel W${\"{u}}$rm으로 전환되는 Interstadial로 간주된다. 화분대 III은 43,000~15,000년 BP간의 가장 오랜 시기를 포함하며, mittel Wurm${\sim}$Jung Wurm기에 해당한다. 한냉기인 화분대 III시기 중에는 Betula, Pinus, Picea 등의 목본류가 교대로 우점하는데, YY1에서 Quercus 와 Picea의 화분조성 변화로 볼 때 아분대 IIId시기가 가장 한냉하였을 것으로 추정된다. 화분아분대 IVa는 하부 화분대와 상부 화분대간의 전환기층으로서 피나무(Tilia)속 우점기로 나타나며, Holocene에 해당하는 화분대 IVb와 V는 약 7,000년 BP부터 현재까지 식생변화로 각각 Quercus와 Pinus가 우점하는 시기로 한국 동해안의 曺(1979)의 화분대 I과 II에 각각 대비된다. Bartlein et al.(1986)의 diagram을 통해 볼 때, 영양지역의 Wurm빙기 최성기의 7월 평균기온은 현재보다 약 10${^\circ}$C 더 낮았을 것으로 추측된다.

본 논문의 목적은 광해군 대(代)의 불교정책과 이것의 영향을 받는 불교계의 양상을 검토하는 것이었다. 이것을 통해 조선불교를 "숭유억불"이라고 규정지음으로 인해 드러나지 않았던 광해군 대의 불교가 가진 나름의 영향력과 역동성을 드러내고자 했다. 성리학을 사상적 배경으로 삼았던 조선 시대에 불교는 성리학의 벽이단을 내세운 지배층에 의하여 배척되어야 했고, 이것은 광해군 대에도 마찬가지였다. 그러나 실제로는 지배층이 이중적 불교관을 가지고 있었다. 이러한 지배층의 이중적 불교관은 광해군 대의 불교계의 상황에 영향을 끼쳤다. 임진왜란에서의 전공으로 지배층은 불교의 존재를 인정할 수밖에 없었고, 그 결과 조선에서 불교의 위상이 일정부분 상승했다. 상승한 위상과 임진왜란 때의 경험을 바탕으로 불교계는 보사(報謝)와 구호 활동에 종사했다. 그 결과, 승려의 수는 증가했고, 사찰과 승려의 토지 소유가 허가됨으로써 경제적 상황도 좋아졌다. 이 과정에서 임진왜란은 광해군 대의 불교정책을 좌우하고 불교지형을 변동시킨 역사적 배경이 되었다. 광해군 대에 지배층은 불교를 이단으로 간주하면서도, 임진왜란에 공이 있는 승려들에게 시호를 하사했고, 승려에게 관직을 제수하는 등 일부 승려들을 우대하는 정책을 폈다. 또한, 승려들은 국방, 건축 등 조직력과 물리적 힘을 요구하는 역을 부담하기 시작했다. 그런데 광해군 대까지는 승려들이 부담하는 역에 대하여 일정 부분 보상해서, 승려가 역을 부담하는 것이 불교에 대한 탄압의 면보다는 불교에 대한 용인의 측면이 강했다. 불교정책에 대하여 불교계는 지배층과의 유착과 사찰의 창·재건, 그리고 불교 예술품 제작이라는 양상을 보인다. 지배층과의 유착을 통해 불교계는 광해군 대 불교정책에 적극 호응했고, 이것을 통해 교단을 유지할 수 있었다. 아울러 이러한 모습 속에서 부휴 선수(浮休 善修)와 제자인 벽암 각성(碧巖 覺性)의 부휴계가 불교계에서 주도권을 가지기 시작했음도 확인된다. 광해군 대의 불교정책은 지배층의 이중적 불교관과 좋아진 측면과 악화된 측면이 공존하는 불교계의 상황을 배경으로 시행되었다. 지배층은 불교의 조직력을 전후(戰後) 복구와 국방, 토목 공사에 적극적으로 활용하였고, 이에 따른 적절한 보상을 시행했다. 불교계 역시 지배층과의 교류를 바탕으로 불교정책에 호응하였고, 사찰과 예술품을 보수하고 제작하였다. 광해군 대의 불교정책과 대응을 살펴보면, 조선 불교에 대한 일반적 묘사인 "숭유억불"로 설명할 수 없는 불교의 조직력과 영향력이 확인된다.

본 연구는 대순진리회의 '포덕' 개념의 특징을 해명하는데 목적을 둔다. 대순진리회의 '포덕'이라는 용어는 동양 전통의 포덕이라는 용어와 중첩되면서, 그에 대한 이해에서 다소간의 오해를 야기한다. 다시 말해, 전통적 사유에 익숙한 일반인들에게 대순진리회의 '포덕', '덕' 개념은 유교적 덕 개념으로 이해하게 만드는 문제가 있어 보인다. 유교적 문화에 익숙한 대중들은 대순진리회의 포덕과 덕 개념을 도덕적 차원에서 이해하게 하거나, 유교적 개념을 대순진리회가 전용하고 있는 것으로 오해하게 만든다. 다른 한편 노자의 '덕' 개념과 대순진리회의 '포덕' 개념을 비교하더라도 비슷한 문제를 노정할 수 있다. 노자에서 '덕' 개념은 개별 존재자의 합목적성을 잘 발휘하도록 하는 것이라고 할 때, 이때의 덕은 상생과 상생의 조건을 만드는 것까지 포함한다. 노자의 덕이 상생의 의미를 갖는다면, 대순진리회의 '포덕' 개념이 상생이라는 궁극적 가치를 향해 귀결되는 점에서 유사 개념 혹은 유사 이해를 할 가능성이 있다. 우선 이러한 오해를 해소하기 위해, 전통 사상에서 덕 개념이 어떻게 탄생하고 어떤 의미였는지, 그것이 유교에서는 어떤 의미였는지, 노자에서는 어떻게 비판되며 새롭게 덕을 제시하는지를 정리할 필요가 있었다. 이러한 정리를 통해 전통 사상에서 덕은 주나라가 천제로부터 천명을 받아 국가를 소유하는 과정에서 행해지던 종교적 의례와 그 의례의 진행을 의미하다가, 공자에 의해 도덕적 의미의 덕목, 규범으로 전환되었음을 살폈다. 이러한 도덕적 덕목과 규범은 노자에 의해 생체권력으로 비판받고, 노자에 의해 개인의 합목적성에 따른 살림 혹은 살아냄의 의미를 갖는 것임을 살펴보았다. 이와 달리 대순진리회의 덕과 전통 사상의 덕은 전혀 다른 이론적 신학적 토대 위에 서있는 것임을 알 수 있었다. 대순진리회의 덕 개념은 강증산의 해원공사와 그 해원공사로부터 해소된 상극, 그 상극이 해소되어 상생이 이루어진 후천선경의 진리를 실천하고 구현하는 덕이다. 따라서 대순진리회의 포덕은 해원상생과 보은상생을 전제할 때만이 성립하는 개념이자, 포덕의 종교적 실천도 해원상생과 보은상생을 실천하는 것이었다. 이러한 종교적 실천에서 발생하는 하위의 덕목들도 전통 사상의 덕목들이 아니라. 대순진리회의 우주적 법리에서 도출된 충효예도임을 알게 한다. 대순진리회의 덕목들은 차별의 상극적 덕목이 아니라, 건곤이 새롭게 정립된 상태에서 그 우주적 법리에서 도출된 합덕(合德), 조화(調化), 상생(相生)을 내용으로 하는 윤리임을 알 수 있게 한다. 대순진리회의 '포덕' 개념은 대순진리회의 도인들에게 요구되는 신앙의 원리적 차원과 그 원리적 차원의 실천에서 전교와 수행에서 모두 요구되는 종교적 실천으로 이해할 수 있다. 다시 말해 동양 전통의 덕 개념이 아니라 상제님의 해원공사의 진리를 지상선경에서 구현해 가는 해원상생과 보은상생의 실천으로서 도인들에게 요구되는 종교적 진리인 것이다.

The levels of health knowledge, attitude and practice of housewives considerably effect to the health of households, communities and the nation. This study was designed to grasp the levels of health knowledge, attitude and practice of houswives and analyse the various factors effecting to health in order to provide health education services as well as materials for effective formulation and implementation of health policy to improve the health of the nation. This study has been conducted through interviews by trained surveyers for 4,281 housewives selected from 4,500 households throughout the country for 40 days during July 11-August 20, 1983. The results of survey were analysed by stepwise multiple regression and path analysis are summarized as follows; 1. Based on the measurement instrument applied to this study, the levels of health knowledge, attitude and practice of housewives were extremely low with 54.5 points out of 100 points in full. Higher level with 72 points and above was approximately 21 percent and lower level with 39 points and below was approx. 24 percent. The middle level was approx. 55 percent. In order to implement health programs successively, health education should be more strengthened and to improve the level of health knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) of the nation, political consideration as a part of spiritual reformation must be concentrated on health. 2. The level of health knowledge indicated the highest points with 57.3 the level of attitude was the second with 55.0 points and the practice level was the lowest with 50.0 point. Therefore, planning and implementation of health education program must be based on the persuasion and motivation that health knowledge turn into practice. 3. Housewives who had higher level of health knowledge, showed their practice level was relatively lower and those who had middle or low level of it practice level was the reverse. 4. Correlations among health knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) were generally higher and statistically significant at 0.1 percent level. Correlation between total health KAP level and health knowledge was the highest with r=.8092. 5. Health KAP levels showed significant differences according to the age, number of children, marital status, self-assessed health status and concern on health of the housewives interviewed (p<0.001) 6. Health KAP levels also showed significant differences according to the education level, economic status, employment before marriage and grown-up area of the housewives interviewed. (p<0.001) 7. Heath KAP levels showed significant differences according to health insurance benificiary and the existence of patients in the family. (p<0.001). 8. Health KAP levels showed significant differences according to distance to government organizations, schools, distance to health facilities, telephone possession rate, television possession rate, newspaper reading rate and activities of Ban meeting and Women's club. (p<0.001) 9. Health KAP levels showed significant differences according to electric mass communication media such as television, radio and village broadcasting etc. and printed media such as newspaper, magazine and booklets etc., IEC variables such as individual consultation and husband-wife communication, however, there was no significance with group training. 10. Health KAP of the housewives showed close correlation with personal characteristics variables, i.e., education level (r=.5302), age (r=-.3694) grown-up area (r=.3357) and employment before marriage. In general, correlation of health knowledge level was higher than the levels of attitude or practice. In case of health concern and health insurance, correlation of practice level was higher than health knowledge level. 11. Health KAP levels showed higher correlation with community environmental characteristics, Ban meeting and activity of Women's club, however, no correlation with New-village movement. 12. Among IEC variables, husband-wife communication showed the highest correlation with health KAP levels and printed media, electric mas communication media and health consultation in order. Therefore, encouragement of husband-wife communication and development of training program for men should be included in health education program. 13. Mass media such as electric mass com. and printed media were effective for knowledge transmission and husband-wife communication and individual consultation were effective for health practice. Group training was significant for knowledge transmission, however, but not significant for attitude formation or turning to health practice. To improve health KAP levels, health knowledge should be transmitted via mass media and health consultation with health professionals and field health workers should be strengthened. 14. Correlation of health KAP levels showed that knowledge level was generally higher than that of practice and recognized that knowledge was not linked with attitude or practice. 15. The twenty-five variables effecting health KAP levels of housewives had 41 per cent explanation variances among which education level had great contribution (β=.2309) and electric mass com. media (β=.1778), husband-wife communication (β=.1482), printed media, grown-up area, and distance to government organizations in order. Variances explained (R²) of health KAP were 31%, 15%, and 30% respectively. 16. Principal variables contributed to health KAP were education level (β=.12320, β=.1465), electric mass comm. media (β=.1762, β=.1839), printed media, (β=.1383, β=.1420) husband-wife communication (β=.1004, β=.1067), grown-up area and distance to government organizations, in order. Since education level contributes greatly to health KAP of the housewives, health education including curriculum development in primary, middle and high schools must be emphasized and health science must be selected as one of the basic liberal arts subject in universities. 17. Variences explained of IEC variables to health KAP were 19% in total, 14% in knowledge, 9% in attitude, and 10% in health practice. Contributions of IEC variables to health KAP levels were printed media (β=.3882), electric mass comm media (β=.3165), husb-band wife com. (β=.2095,) and consultation on health (β=.0841) in order, however, group training showed negative effect (β=-.0402). National fund must be invested for the development of Health Program through mass media such as TV and radio etc. and for printed materials such as newspaper, magazines, phamplet etc. needed for transmission of health knowledge. 18. Variables contributed to health KAP levels through IEC variables with indirect effects were education level (Ind E=0.0410), health concern (Ind E=.0161), newspaper reading rate (Ind E=.0137), TV possession rate and activity of Ban meeting in order, however, health facility showed negative effect (Ind E=-.0232) and other variables showed direct effect but not indirect effect. 19. Among the variables effecting health KAP level, education level showed the highest in total effect (TE=.2693) then IEC (TE=.1972), grown-up city (TE=.1237), newspaper reading rate (TE=.1020), distance to government organization (TE=.095) in order. 20. Variables indicating indirect effects to health KAP levels were; at knowledge level with R²=30%, education level (Ind E=.0344), newspaper reading rate (Ind E=.0112), TV possession rate (Ind E=.0689), activity of Ban meeting (Ind E=.0079) in order and at attitude level with R²=13%, education level (Ind E=. 0338), activity of Ban meeting (Ind E=.0079), and at practice level with R²=29%. education level (Ind E=.0268), health facility (Ind E=.0830) and concern on health (Ind E=.0105). 21. Total effect to health KAP levels and IEC by variable characteristics, personal characteristics variables indicated larger than community characteristics variables. 22. Multiple Correlation Coefficient (MCC) expressed by the Personal Characteristic Variable was .5049 and explained approximately 25% of variances. MCC expressed by total Community environment variable was .4283 and explained approx. 18% of variances. MCC expressed by IEC Variables was .4380 and explained approx. 19% of variances. The most important variable effected to health KAP levels was personal characteristic and then IEC variable, Community Environment variable in order. When the IEC effected with personal characteristic or community characteristic, the MCC or the variances were relatively higher than effecting alone. Therefore it was identified that the IEC was one of the important intermediate variable.

Under the full consideration of the growing need and importance of population education in the field of home economics in Korea, the study was carried out to verify and assess the following facts on the current issues of population education of home economists who are presently engaging in teaching professions as the teachers of middle and high school and professors of college and universities by setting its primary objectives of the study as followings; 1) to assess the degree of general knowledge and attitudes of home economists toward population education in the field of home economics, 2) to verify the problems encountered in implementing population education by home economists in its field, 3) to find an existing status of previous trainings received and other activities of population education of home economists aimed at utilizing these findings as a part of reference materials when the population education is conducted in the field of home economics. In order to attain these objectives described above, the questionnaire was carefully designed to house a total of 40 questions with good combination of multiple-choice and the simple answer questions. The mail questionnaire survey was conducted by establishing teachers of home economics at middle/high schools and college/universities as Senior Home Economists(SHE) who are from public, private liberal arts and vocational schools. The rate of response observed during the survey was 45.6 percent and the findings of the survey research are as follows: 1) Examining the status of the respondents by residence and religion, it was found that 45 percent of middle & high school teachers ar.d 59. 1 percent of college professors are residing in Seoul city area and that the largest percent of them are christian in their religion. Analyzing respondents by their ages, 56 percent of middle/high school teachers are in their 30s, 45 percent of college professors are in their 40s, and 37 percent of college teachers are in their 30s. In addition, 13 percent of the total respondents are found to be unmarried. The study also revealed that 71 percent of the college professors finished Master Degree course and 82 percent of middle/high school teachers are graduated from college level lasting 4 years. Looking over the status cf major fields of respondents, 68.4 percent of middle/high school teachers are specialized in home economic education and the college professors, on the other hand, show relatively even prortion by specializing in the order of food & nutrition science, clothes & textile science and home managerial science. As far as the length of teaching experience is concerned, a relatively longer period of teaching experience is observed in the college professors in comparison with that of middle/high school teachers. In other words, 33.3 percent of middle/high school teachers are experienced in teaching from 6 to 10 years on average while 43.9 percent of college professors show more than 16 years of experience. 2) Examining the status of existing number of children cf the respondents, one boy and one daughter pattern is predominant, showing 28.5 percent in middle/high school teachers and 21.1 percent in college professors. As for the desired number of children of unmarried respondents, it is observed that 43.8 percent of middle/high school teachers desire to have one boy and one girl, and 31.3 percent of college professors want to have one child regardless of the sex. By assessing the degree of awareness of the population education through their students, it is observed that 53 percent of middle/high school teachers and 50 percent of college professors are aware of population education in some extent and that a majority of respondents took the positive attitudes toward an inclusion of family planning components into the formal school education. Another noteworthy to observe is that a total of 84.8 percent out of middle/high school teachers pointed that the population education currently conducted at schools as a part of home economics are less sufficient than it should be. 3) Analyzing the tendency as to whether the respondents were experienced in receiving population education during the time when they were students, 75 percent of college professors and 59 percent of middle/high school teachers responded negative answers in the survey. In the mean time, a total of 50 percent of the respondents replied that they began to acknowledge the importance of population education mainly through the participation of some sort of population-education orientend seminars, experienced by 40 percent of college professors and 80 percent of middle/high school teachers. 4) What it calls attention in this study was to find that 96.5 percent of middle/high school teachers and 72 percent of college professors conduct population education to some extent during their lecture hours and that more than 80 percent of them are never experienced in teaching population and family planning contents in their regular classes. It is, on the other hand, found that no more than once was the response of those who believe themselves that they are experienced in teaching these relevant components to their students. Analyzing the contents of the subjects being taught in the class, a large percent of them are found to be consisted of population and family planning contents. According to this study, the current population education through the formal school is quite inactive. Analyzing the facts, 44.9 percent of the college professors responded that the population and family planning components are quite apart from their specialization which eventually generates lack of interest in the field. 5) It is also noticed through the study that the degree of frequency of commenting on population and family planning contents during the classes was depending significantly on their specializations which means that the degree of frequency varies from a major to another. Those who majored in home managerial science was the first one, as compared to others who majored in different specializations. Glancing over the status of correlations between ages of the respondents and numbers of seminar paticipation, it is quite clear that the aged group participated more than the younger group did, and that the most highest number of participations made by college professors were those who are in 50s. In addition, it is also found that those who are aged 20s and 60s of the respondents were the group who comments least on the contents of population and family planning at their classes. The suggestions and recommendation made through this survey research are as follows. 1) No one denies that the rapid increase of population, as compared to the limited size of land and resources, will certainly affect adversly to an enhancement of individual life quality which will, eventually, bring forth the poverty of the nation. This is the reasson why we are insisting that the world population be controlled up to an optimum level with a matter of global concerns. It is our understading that the primary aim for reducing number of population is believed to be attained only by conducting the systematic and comprehensive population education through the formal schools. Therefore, the role of home economists in the field of population/family planning education is considered very importment due to the fact that an ultimate goal of population education is placed in elevating the quality of family life by having optimum number of children through family planning program. 2) It is quite clear that home economists as teachers of formal school in all level are invited to pay their attention on redefining the ultimate goal of education and that of population education. We also understant that the primary objective of population education is to change the norm and value of the clients by replenishing the students with pertinent knowledge and attitudes on population and its related problems through a sort of education in order to attain the ultimate goal for enhancing the quality of life. There is no exception in the theory of home economics. An altimate goal of home economics is to elevate the general quality of life through an establishment of value existed in daily life. Considering the relations between population education and home economics, it is quite indespensable to bandle population components as an integral part in the field of home economics. We believe, therefore, that the senior home economists positive participation in the effort population control is more needed than it has been. 3) It is also strongly urged that population education should be a part of instructor training course for home economics. In other words, the teacher of home economics should be well aware of population and its problems by teaching interrelationship between population education and home economics, needs, contents and methods of population education during the instructor training courese for home economics. In addition, the senior home economists should be encouraged through positive participation on the short term training by types of domestic and international seminar, workshop, etc. 4) We certainly believe that the population education can not sustain itself without any backing-up of information and findings' of various and comprehensive researches of natural and social sciences. Accordingly, every senior home economist is invited to exert their maximum effort to conduct systematic study with an aim to utilize these findings and information at best in population education in the field of home economics. Therefore, we consider that the development of training material is imminent in order to provide effective and efficient population education through the for training of home economies. It should be noted that these training materials must be carefully designed, tailored and developed to meet the different classes of trainees under the considerations as to whether it is easily adaptable and infusable into the curricula of every field of home economics, and it is acceptable in the degree of difficulty and quality in its contents. 5) It is true that there are many domestic and international research rapers, reports and findings in the field of population education and family planning. However, there is a tendency that the most of research papers are heavily relying on the authors intension and preferences in its expression and publication. Under these circumstances, it is urged that the home economists should aware of the growing need of the technical training in order to keep these available information and research findings reprocessed and redesigned to insure the practical application into the population education in the field of home economics in Korea.
