자기 통제감은 노년기의 다양한 스트레스 상황에서 신체적 정신적 건강을 보호하고 증진시키는 역할을 한다고 밝혀져 왔다. 본 연구에서는 노년기 자기 통제감에 영향을 주는 요인을 분석하였다. 주요 영향 요인을 (1) 사회 인구학적 특성, (2) 신체 건강 상태, (3) 최근 일어난 부정적 생활사건, (4) 사회 관계적 자원으로 분류하였다. 국내 다섯 개 도시에 거주하는 60세 이상 노인 291명(평균 연령 = 69.9)을 연구 대상으로 하였고, 자기 통제감은 Pearlin과 Schooler(1978)의 Mastery Scale의 7항목으로 측정되었다. 위계적 회귀분석 결과, 경제 수준, 만성 질환, 일상생활 수행 장애, 시력, 부정적 생활사건 경험, 그리고 자녀와의 관계 만족도가 자기 통제감에 유의한 영향을 주는 요인으로 밝혀졌다. 이러한 결과를 통해, 노년기 자기 통제감 증진을 위한 개입이나 사회적 프로그램 개발의 중요성을 제시하였다.

본 연구에서는 영구임대아파트 입주자의 부정적인 정신건강상의 문제인 우울에 영향을 미치는 연결고리를 파악하고, 지역사회의 차원에서 우울감 감소를 위한 정책적·실천적 지원방안을 제시하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 K광역시 영구임대아파트 입주자 1,920세대를 대상으로 실시한 설문분석 결과를 사용하였다. 분석결과, 첫째, 조사 대상자의 절반이 넘는 51.1%가 우울 증상이 있는 것으로 조사되었다. 둘째, 우울에 영향을 미치는 요인은 인구사회학적 변인 중 가구주 성별, 연령, 일인가구, 사회보장급여 수급이 우울에 정적 영향을 미치며, 연령제곱과 경제활동 참여는 우울에 부적 영향을 미치는 요인으로 확인되었다. 셋째, 지역사회공동체 변인 중에는 이웃에 대한 생각과 이웃참여의사가 우울에 부적 영향을 미치는 요인으로 확인되었다. 넷째, 건강상태 변인 중 신체적 건강 어려움과 정신적 건강 어려움이 우울에 정적 영향요인으로 확인되었다. 이상의 분석결과를 토대로 영구임대아파트 입주자의 우울감 감소를 위한 개입과 후속연구에 대한 방안들을 논의하였다.

The interest in decrepitude expanded by graying is gradually growing in modern society. Moreover, he concern over decrepitude along with healthy mind and body is increasing. Therefore, there are many concerns and efforts toward physical and mental health. In addition, the interest in and effort for appearance health and value is rising as well as physical and mind health. The middle age is the most stable age based on the economic and social status that had been achieved through the life, but it is the most stressful age due to physical health problem and appearance ageing. There are many advanced studies for self-esteem and life satisfaction in old age by using hair, skin-care, cosmetic, nail-art among beauty related fields but studies on self-esteem and perception of successful ageing through user satisfaction of beauty service is lacking. This study is aiming to verify empirically the positive effect of self-esteem improvement through user satisfaction of beauty service on perception of successful ageing for middle-aged over 50 years old. The study has assumed that the higher middle-aged's satisfaction of beauty service is, the more self-esteem improves and there has a mediated effect to contribute successful ageing.

본 연구는 돌봄경험의 긍정적 측면을 조명하기 위한 목적으로 지역사회에서 정신장애인을 돌보는 어머니를 대상으로 돌봄만족감의 수준이 어느 정도이며, 어떤 요인들이 이에 영향을 미치는지에 관해 알아보았다. 연구대상자는 서울 및 경인지역의 지역정신보건센터, 사회복귀시설 및 낮병원을 이용하는 정신장애인을 돌보는 어머니이며, 총 231명이다. 돌봄만족감에 영향을 미치는 요인에는 정신장애 관련 요인으로 정신장애인의 유병기간, 입원횟수 및 사회기능이, 어머니의 개인적 요인으로 연령, 결혼상태, 가족수입, 신체적 건강이, 그리고 관계적 요인으로 정신장애인과 어머니관계의 질과 어머니가 가족, 친구 및 의미 있는 타자와의 관계를 통해 받는 사회적 지지가 포함되었다. 자료분석을 위해 t-test, Oneway-ANOVA, 상관관계분석, 그리고 위계적 다중회귀분석(hierachical multiple regression analysis) 등이 사용되었다. 연구결과 어머니의 돌봄만족감은 5점 척도에서 평균 3.06점으로 중간보다 약간 높게 나타났다. 최종 회귀분석모델에서 어머니의 돌봄만족감에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 요인은 어머니의 결혼상태, 가족수입, 정신장애인과의 관계의 질, 그리고 사회적 지지였으며, 정신장애인의 사회기능 등 정신장애 관련 요인은 돌봄만족감에 유의미한 영향을 미치지 않았다. 본 연구의 결과를 통해 돌봄경험의 긍정적 측면으로 실재하는 돌봄만족감에 대한 실천적 관심이 필요함과 더불어 이를 증진하기 위한 사회복지실천적 개입 방안이 연구의 함의로 제시되었다.

Purpose: The purposes of this study were to explore the effects of family cohesion and subjective happiness on death anxiety of Korean elders and to identify other factors contributing to death anxiety. Methods: The participants were 280 elders who lived in P metropolitan city. Data were collected between November 5, 2011 and January 12, 2012 using the Short Portable Mental Status Questionnaire (SPMSQ), Family Cohesion Evaluation Scale, Subjective Happiness Scale, and Fear of Death Scale (FODS). Data were analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 19.0 program. Results: Family cohesion, marital status, religious activity, perceived health status, and subjective happiness were included in the factors affecting death anxiety of Korean elders. These variables explained 50.1% of death anxiety. Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that these variables should be considered in developing nursing intervention programs to decrease death anxiety and increase family cohesion and subjective happiness for life integration in Korean elders.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify and compare the risk factors of depression among middle-class Korean workers. Methods: A cross sectional study was designed for secondary data analysis. From the 8th Korean Medical Panel Survey (2008~2013), a total of 3,056 data was drawn and analyzed. With SPSS version 24, a developmental stage comparison, with the stage being young adults (20~39), middle-aged adults (40~64), and older adults (65+) were conducted. Frequency, percentage, 𝑥² test and logistic regression analysis were statistical tools used to analyze the data. Results: In all developmental groups, experience of frustration was found to be a common risk factor of depression. Stress from excessive task, peer-compared subjective health status, and self-perceived social class were risk factors of depression in the young adults and the middle-aged adults. Anxiety for the future significantly influenced depression in the middle-aged adults and older adults. Conclusion: Experience of frustration was a major risk factor of depression among Korean middle-class workers. Interventions to reduce depression need to be developed focusing on the specific risk factors by developmental stages such as experience of frustration, stress from task burden, poor peer-compared subjective health status and anxiety for the future.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the quantity and quality of the mandibular anterior alveolar bone in terms of alveolar width, density, and total alveolar height (TAH) based on dental status, gender, and age. Additionally, this study aimed to quantitatively evaluate the available alveolar height for graft harvesting (AHGH) and examine its variability based on the aforementioned factors. Materials and Methods: This retrospective cone-beam computed tomographic study included a total of 100 subjects. On the basis of gender, dental status, and age, the scans were divided into 3 primary groups and 8 subgroups. The mandibular alveolar width and density were measured 5 mm mesial to the mental foramen bilaterally and at the midline. The TAH was measured at the midline, and the AHGH was measured as the midline distance between 5 mm apical to the root of the canines and 5 mm superior to the lower border. Results: The mandibular alveolar width was statistically similar between dentulous and edentulous patients (P>0.05). A significantly greater density was observed at the midline in edentulous patients (P<0.05). The TAH was significantly greater in edentulous male patients than in edentulous female patients (P<0.05). Dentulous and male patients had significantly greater AHGH than edentulous and female patients, respectively (P<0.05). Conclusion: Based on the data evaluated in this study, it can be concluded that the mandibular symphyseal area has adequate bone quality and quantity for bone graft harvesting for dental implant therapy.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the association between dental implants and cognitive function in community-dwelling older adults. Methods: Data were collected from the baseline survey (2016-2017) of the Korean Frailty and Aging Cohort Study. The study sample comprised 1115 community-dwelling people aged 70 years to 84 years who had 0-19 natural teeth. Dental implants and natural teeth were identified by panoramic radiography, while the cognitive function was assessed by the Korean version of the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE-KC). The association between dental implants and cognitive function was analyzed by multiple linear regression. Sensitivity analysis was performed to test for potential bias. Results: The mean number of natural teeth in the study population was 9.50 (standard deviation [SD], 6.42), and the mean MMSE-KC score was 24.93 (SD, 3.55). In the simple univariate analysis, tooth replacement, age, sex, smoking status, alcohol consumption, body mass index, osteoporosis, number of natural teeth, periodontitis, chewing discomfort, tooth-brushing frequency, education level, monthly household income, participation in economic activity, living alone, and marital status had a significant impact on the association. After adjusting for confounders, the association between dental implants and cognitive function remained significant (B, 0.85; standard error, 0.40; p<0.05). Age, body mass index, periodontitis, tooth-brushing frequency, and education level were also significantly associated with cognitive function. The results of the sensitivity analyses were consistent with those of the primary analysis. Conclusions: Dental implants were associated with cognitive function in older adults living in the community. Dental implants as tooth replacements may play a role in preserving cognitive function.
