Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine factors related to regular walking exercise in the elderly using KNHNES data. Method: The study subjects, a total of 1437 adults over age 65, were classified into two groups based on their type of walking exercise: regular walking exercise group or irregular walking exercise group. The study variables were measured using scale physiological function, mental health status, chronic disease and quality of life. Results: The data was analyzed by $x^2$-test, t-test, and logistic regression using the SPSS 18.0 program. The factors related to regular walking exercise were male (OR=0.628, 95%CI=0.503-0.783), subjective health state (OR=0.832, 95%CI=0.751-0.921), thoughts of suicide (OR=0.753, 95%CI=0.586-0.967), hypoHDL-cholesterolemia (OR=0.742, 95%CI=0.591-0.930), and stroke (OR=0.604, 95%CI=0.366-0.997). Conclusion: The findings indicate that regular walking exercise in the elderly is related to physiological function, mental health status, and chronic disease. Therefore, providing for the education and awareness of health promotion for the elderly will may improve the quality of life in old age.

본 연구의 목적은 일반가정과 비교하여 다문화가정이 청소년의 주관적 건강상태, 정신건강 및 인터넷 중독 성향에 미치는 영향력 정도를 확인하는 것이다. 2017년 제 13차 청소년건강행태온라인조사의 원시자료를 이용해 복합표본분석을 하였다. 대상자는 일반가정 61,320명(98.5%), 다문화가정 956명(1.5%)이었다. 연구결과, 다문화가정 청소년은 일반가정 청소년보다 건강하지 못한 편, 불행한 편, 우울 경험, 자살생각, 주중과 주말 스마트폰 과의존, 친구나 선후배 관계에서 스마트폰 관련 문제적 경험 비율이 유의하게 높았다. 또한, 다문화가정 청소년은 일반가정 청소년에 비해 자살생각 1.270배, 주중과 주말 스마트폰 과의존 각각 1.359배, 1.297배, 친구나 선후배 관계에서 스마트폰 관련 문제 경험이 1.603배 높은 것으로 나타났다. 그러므로, 본 연구결과는 다문화가정 청소년의 정신건강 및 인터넷 중독 성향을 개선할 수 있는 중재 프로그램의 기초자료를 제공하였다는 것에 매우 큰 의미가 있다고 생각된다.

Objectives: There is an increasing number of North Korean adolescents in South Korea. These adolescents need clinical attention as they experience a high risk of suicidal behavior because of the childhood adversity and acculturative challenges that they face before and after arriving in South Korea. This study assessed the risk of suicide attempts among North Korean adolescents compared to South Korean adolescents, and investigated the contributing factors for each group. Methods: We used data from the Korean Youth Risk Behavior Web-Based Survey (KYRBS) spanning 2011 to 2018, in which 404 adolescents had a father and/or mother who was a North Korean native. Data on 1,212 propensity-matched South Korean adolescents were extracted from the 2011 to 2018 KYRBS. Prevalence was calculated and compared by group. Separate odds ratios were calculated by group. Results: The North Korean group had a significantly higher suicide attempt rate [unadjusted odds ratio (OR)=8.27; adjusted OR=8.45]. Multivariate analysis indicated that having a low or high socioeconomic status and depressive symptoms were significantly associated with suicide attempts in North Korean adolescents, while being female, having a high socioeconomic status, alcohol use, and depressive symptoms were significantly related to suicide attempts in South Korean adolescents. Conclusion: The results found similarities and differences in the factors associated with the likelihood of suicide attempts in the two groups. From these results, different approaches are needed when planning interventions for each group.

This study was to understand associated factors with frequent exposure to Internet pornography among Korean adolescents. We used data (N = 45,783) from the 2012 Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey to examine demographics, family environmental variables, Internet use time, mental health indicators, sexual behavior, and delinquency among Korean adolescents identified as frequent users of Internet pornography. Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that frequent users of Internet pornography were more likely to be older males with differences in living arrangements and perceived economic status of the family. They were heavy Internet users with mental health issues, such as a higher likelihood of sadness, suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, high stress, and a lower likelihood of feeling happiness. Their higher probability of exploratory (OR =1.79-4.60), and high-risk sexual behavior (OR = 2.20-7.46), and other delinquencies (OR = 1.74-7.68) requires more attention from public health professionals.

본 연구의 목적은 노인의 건강문해력 정도를 파악하고 건강문해력과 건강상태 간의 관계를 규명하기 위함이다. 본 연구는 횡단적 서술적 조사 연구방법으로, 2019년 7월부터 12월까지 158명의 참여자를 대상으로 수행되었다. 언어적 건강문해력과 기능적 건강문해력은 각각 한국형 의료정보이해능력측정도구와 Newest Vital Sign을 이용하였고, 주관적 신체적, 정신적 건강상태의 자료를 수집하였다. 노인 대상자의 1/3 이상이 언어적, 기능적 건강문해력이 낮은 것으로 나타났고, 거주지, 배우자 유무, 동거가족 유무, 교육수준, 직업 유무, 월평균 가족 소득수준, 보유질환 개수에 따라 건강문해력에 차이를 보였다. 언어적, 기능적 건강문해력 수준에 따라 주관적 신체적, 정신적 건강상태에 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 건강문해력을 향상시키기 위한 교육 프로그램 개발 시 거주지, 교육수준, 월평균 가족소득, 보유질환 개수와 같은 사회인구학적 요인과 질병관련 요인을 고려할 필요가 있으며, 맞춤형 융합적 교육 프로그램으로 건강문해력 수준을 향상시킴으로써 건강상태 증진을 도모할 수 있겠다.

The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of the 8-week, 15-session group art therapy program on self-esteem and mental health status in chronic schizophrenic inpatients. The sample consisted of two groups of chronic schizophrenic inpatients: 10 patients with an average of total disease duration of 8.90 years who participated in a 8-week group art therapy program, and 8 comparison subjects with an average of total disease duration of 8.25 years who did not participate in the program. A pretest-posttest quasiexperimental design was used to assess self-esteem and mental health status at the beginning and at the end of the 8-week, 15-session group art therapy program. The time points for obtaining data were matched for both groups. The effectiveness of the 8-week group art therapy program was assessed by Rosenberg's Self-esteem Scale(Rosenberg, 1965) and SCL-90- R(Derogatis et al., 1973). SPSSWIN 8.0 was utilized for data entry and analysis employing Mann-Whitney U test. The findings of the study indicated the followings : (a) No significant differences were found between two groups in self-esteem and (b) The experimental group showed significantly lower scores in obsessive-compulsive symptom dimension and interpersonal sensitivity symptom dimension on the SCL-90-R than the comparison group after participating in the group art therapy program. In conclusion, the findings showed the possibility of applying group art therapy as an effective nursing intervention for patients with lack of verbal communication skills and social interaction to improve their interpersonal relationship.

Purpose: This research was designed as a pre-post experimental study with a nonequivalent control group to verify the effects of meridian exercise on health status, depression and self-esteem in institutionalized elderly people. Method: The research population included 38 participants, 65 years and over, who were assigned to an experimental group (18) or a control group (20). All of the participants were institutionalized in Seoul Data collection was done from October. 2000 to May, 2001 and the experimental treatment for this study, meridian exercise, was done for a total 30 minutes per session for 12 sessions over two weeks. The exercise was developed by a professor of Oriental Medicine and the researchers involved in this study. The data were analyzed using the SPSS PC+ program. Result: There were no significant differences for general characteristics between the two groups. Physical health status, mental-mood health status, depression and self-esteem were low. Differences in the physical health status of the elderly people was higher in the experimental group (t=16.299, p=.000). The effects of the meridian exercise on mental-mood health status, depression, and self-esteem were statistically significant (t= 10.301, p= .000 ; t=15.579, p=.000, t=14.571, p=.000). Conclusion: According to the results, meridian exercise should be used to improve health status, reduce depression and increase self-esteem, and so promote the quality of life for elderly People who must be institutionalized. A study to measure the physiological index in meridian exercise for elderly people is suggested as a method to set up a Korean nursing intervention to enable elderly people to manage their own health.
