  • Objective: About one-third of college students are exposed to stress to the point that their academic performance is negatively affected. To provide useful information for managing the mental health of young people by analyzing the perceived stress level, depression level, and life satisfaction according to the amount of physical activity and the level of muscular strength in male college students. Design: A cross-sectional study. Methods: Among 304 students who participated in the health exercise class at Sahmyook University in Seoul, the amount of physical activity and the level of muscular strength were divided into 3 quartiles, respectively, and the perceived stress level, depression level, and life satisfaction were analyzed through one-way ANOVA. The physical activity level and muscle strength level of the subjects were ranked, divided into 3 groups, and the difference in variables according to the group was verified. Results: There was no difference in perceived stress level, depression level, and life satisfaction according to the amount of physical activity, but statistically significant differences were shown in perceived stress scale(p=0.008) and life satisfaction(p=0.030) according to muscular strength. Conclusions: Policies to increase physical activity are important to improve and manage the mental health of young people, but it is judged to be more meaningful to provide an environment that can improve muscular strength.

  • 본 연구는 농촌지역 경증 치매노인의 삶의 질을 측정하고, 이들의 인구사회학적 특성, 주관적 건강인식, 동반질환, 의존성, 수면, 우울 등 대상자의 삶의 질에 관련된 요인들을 살펴본 상관연구로써, 대상자의 삶의 질 향상을 위한 여러 대안들을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 본 연구를 시행하였다. 본 연구의 대상자는 본 연구의 수행에 동의한 충청북도 ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$군 보건소에 등록된 65세 이상의 경증 치매노인으로, 대상자로부터 동의서를 받은 후 설문지를 이용하여 자료 수집을 하였다. 본 연구결과 농촌지역 경증 치매노인의 주관적 건강인식과 의존성, 수면, 우울이 삶의 질과 상관성을 보이는 것으로 나타났고, 우울은 삶의 질의 변인으로써 54%를 설명하는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 삶의 질에 유의한 예측변수는 우울이었다. 위의 결과로 다음과 같은 제언을 하고자 한다. 첫째, 대상자의 삶의 질에 영향을 미치는 우울의 원인을 파악하고, 그에 따른 지원정책을 분류하여 제공할 필요가 있다고 생각된다. 둘째, 대상자의 우울이 삶의 질에 영향을 주는 것으로 볼 때, 치매노인들의 정신적 건강상태에 따른 의료적 환경과 접근에 있어서 보다 더 용이한 환경이 되도록 보건소와 병원, 노인전문요양시설간의 지역사회내의 연계체계 구축을 통해 통합적 정신건강서비스를 제공할 필요가 있다고 생각된다. 특히 지역 간 보건의료자원의 불균형이 심한 농촌지역의 특성을 고려하여 보건소를 기점으로 보건지소나 보건진료소와 같은 공공보건의료체계를 포괄적이고 효율적으로 보강할 것을 제언한다. 셋째, 본 연구는 일개 농촌지역에 국한되어 선정 기준에 맞는 대상자들만 연구에 포함시켰기 때문에 연구결과를 우리나라 전체 경증 치매노인에게 일반화시키는데 제한적이므로 연구지역을 확대할 것을 제언한다. 또한 경증치매 노인을 위해 개발되는 간결한 검증된 도구의 사용이 필요하다고 본다. 넷째, 경증 치매노인이 평균적으로 어느 정도의 우울을 동반하는지에 대한 후속 연구를 통해 치매정도를 고려한 인지향상 프로그램 외에 우울의 정도에 따른 개별화된 예방 중재 프로그램이 개발되어 장기적인 효과를 확인할 것을 제언한다.

  • Purpose: This study was done to develop the concept of resilience focusing on cancer patients in Korea. Methods: This study was done in three phases sugggested in the Hybrid Model; theoretical phase, fieldwork phase, and analytical phase. Eight cancer patients participated in the fieldwork phase. Results: The antecedent of the concept of resilience was the crisis or adversity that threatens life or changes the quality of life. The attributes of resilience were psychosocial, relational, situational confrontation and faith (philosophical) characteristics. 1) Psychosocial : self worth, self efficacy, self-confidence, independence, optimistic & positive mind, strong will, and responsibility, 2) Relational : relation-oriented, intimacy, and social interests, 3) Situational confrontation : appraisal of stress situation, problem-oriented coping, and ability to applicate a new situation, 4) Faith (philosophical) : the belief that self-knowledge is valuable, finding positive meanings, religious belief, a belief that lives are worthwhile and meaningful, and a balanced perspective of one's life. The consequences of resilience were acceptance of adversity, getting through one's dread and apprehensions, and gratitude & sharing life. The contributing factor of resilience is positive family support. Conclusion: The concept of resilience is necessary in order to manage cancer patients for promoting quality of life so that its application may have a positive impact on the patients care.

  • The death scenes are the culmination of both Doris Lessing's "To Room Nineteen" and Toni Morrison's Sula. Lessing's Susan, an intelligent white English woman, gradually loses the meaning of life as awealthy housewife in the patriarchal society and commits suicide as her solution in Room Nineteen of Fred's Hotel. Morrison's Sula, an African-American woman, grows up without having the normal ego under Eva's matriarchy in a black community named the Bottom. Sula, after Nel's marriage, becomes a symbol of evil to her community and drifts down to death in Eva's bed. Reading these two death stories from the perspective of Jung's archetypal psychology, Susan is not able to continue to live a meaningful life because her life energy is cut off from its source which is in the unconscious. According to Jung, the symbol is the medium of the psychic energy from the unconscious to consciousness. In modern society which is represented by intelligence, the religious and mythical symbols are removed by rationalism, which means disconnection of the flow of life energy from the unconscious. Susan's death can be read as a kind of creating symbol to connect the modern people to the source of life energy. Sula's case is the opposite of Susan's. She remains in the unconscious world without having the proper ego in the absurd reality of racial and sexual problems. Sula finally rises again in Nel's awareness, becoming a symbol of the feminine goddess like goddess Inanna.

  • 연구 목적 : 본 연구의 목적은 박사학위를 소지한 기독교인 시니어의 신앙, 학문으로 부르심과 사명을 포함하는 삶의 경험, 그리고 그들의 지혜와 경험에 근거하여 제안하는 교회의 시니어 사역을 이해하고자 함이다. 연구 내용 및 방법 : 연구 목적을 위해 65세 이상이며 박사학위를 취득하고 전임 혹은 비전임으로 교수직을 수행한 경험이 있으며 기독교 신앙과 교회의 시니어 사역에 관한 경험을 잘 말해줄 수 있는 7명의 연구참여자를 면담하였다. 연구참여자들에게 성숙한 신앙은 말과 행동을 통해 드러나는 하나님 경외의 모습과 죽음 이후의 영생을 소망하는 믿음이었다. 그들은 학문으로의 부르심과 기회를 은혜와 책임으로 받아들였고 은퇴 이후에도 지속적으로 사역을 하고 있으며 평생 몸에 밴습관과 영원한 목표인 텔로스가 있었다. 노인을 위한 사역에 관하여 노인을 지혜와 삶이라는 자원을 가진 자로 인식하는 것과 상시로 긴박하게 진행되는 시니어 사역을 제안하였다. 후자와 관련하여 영혼을 깨우는 사역, 주중에도 지속되는 사역, 비대면·온라인 사역의 활성화를 구체적으로 제안하였다. 결론 및 제언 : 영원한 목표와 가치 있고 의미 있는 일을 함으로 오는 충족감, 경건과 도덕성과 지성적 측면에서 정체되지 않고 달려갈 길을 온전히 마치려는 열정으로 채워진 삶이 연구참여자를 넘어선 모든 노인의 삶의 성격이 될 수 있도록 은퇴 이후 삶의 준비와 이를 위한 교회의 교육적 사역은 은퇴 이전부터 시작될 필요가 있다.

  • 본 연구는 복지관을 이용하는 장애부모를 둔 비장애 아동들을 대상으로 현상학적 연구방법을 통해 장애부모를 둔 비장애 아동의 행복한 삶의 본질적 의미를 밝히고자 시도되었다. 그 결과 행복한 삶과 관련된 76개 의미 있는 진술, 20개의 주제 8개의 범주가 도출 되었으며 아동이 행복한 삶의 본질적인 의미로는 '부모님이 행복해 하는 삶', '부모가 인정받는 삶', '부모님이 건강한 삶' '다른 가족과 다를 것이 없는 삶' 4개의 범주로 나타났고, 아동이 행복한 삶을 살기 조건으로는 '경제적으로 안정된 삶', '장애에 대한 인식이 긍정적인 사람과의 만남의 삶' '함께 여행하는 삶', '아동으로 인정받는 삶' 으로 나타났다. 이를 통해 볼 때 아동들에게는 이 시기가 중요한 만큼 더욱더 행복한 삶을 느낄 수 있는 개입방안과 장애인을 바라보는 인식개선 및 옹호자의 역할이 절실히 필요하다고 본다.

  • Objectives: The purpose of this study was to test the prescribed mediating effect of a sense of job oppression by considering the relationship between emotional labor and work satisfaction. Methods: This study was carried out using the data published in 2016 by the Korea Labor & Society Institute in An Investigation of Quality of Life and the Working Environment in the Service Industry. The data were collected from 638 workers at department stores. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation, and multiple regression with Baron and Kenny steps for mediation. Results: After investigating the mediating effect of a sense of job oppression in the relationship between emotional labor and work satisfaction, it was confirmed that the effect was partially meaningful. It was also determined that the greater the intensity of their emotional labor was, the lower was their satisfaction with their working life. Additionally, the workers felt that the greater their sense of job oppression, the lower was their sense of satisfaction with work. Conclusions: In order to increase work satisfaction, it is required for guidelines for reducing job oppression and the intensity of emotional labor to be proposed or established.
