The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors that influence middle-aged people's retirement planning and financial preparation for old age. The data was derived from "the National Survey of Families 2015". The samples included 1,462 people from 40 to 64 years of age. The findings from the analysis showed that the level of retirement planning was significantly associated with gender, age, education level, employment status, monthly family income, monthly expenditure on spending to support parents, and perceived household economic condition. When the samples were divided by sex, the results showed that the perceived household economic condition was the most significant factor for both men and women's level of retirement planning. Age and education level were the significant factors for women's level of retirement planning but not for men's. Logistic regression was used to analyze whether middle-aged people made financial preparation for old age. For the whole sample, whether or not a person was a regular employee, monthly family income, monthly expenditure on supporting parents, perceived household economic condition, and retirement planning were significant variables in determining financial preparation. For men, whether or not a person was a regular employee, monthly family income, perceived household economic condition, and retirement planning were significant factors, for women whether or not a person was a regular employee, and retirement planning were the significant factors in determining financial preparation. The results implied that retirement planning is needed for middle-aged people to prepare for old age financially while the financial preparation should differ depending on sex.

This study was performed to show change of fat-free mass(FFM), representing mostly the muscle mass change, and muscle strength with increasing age, and relationship between dietary, exercise behaviors and FFM in healthy middle-and old aged women who are of age over 55 years. The FFM and correspondingly hand grip strength showed significant positive correlation with age. But concentration of serum albumin showed no significant relationship with age. The subjects were categorized into groups according to FFM tertile. The anthropometry such as weight, BMI, fat mass, circumferences of waist and hip, WHR, and hand grip strength decreased significantly in the lowest FFM group. But the albumin level showed no change according to FFM level. The FFM showed significant correlation with nutrient intakes such as energy, carbohydrate, protein, Fe, P, Ca. No association, however, was shown with exercise behavior probably because of no case with resistance exercise habits. The variance of FFM was explained 55.2% by height and carbohydrate intake. The variance of height-adjusted FFM could be explained only 16.2% by intake amount of carbohydrate. In conclusion, the decrease of FFM may cause to reduce muscle strength in female elderly. The increasing nutrient intakes were associated with the increased FFM and may protect from risk of sarcopenia. However, only the carbohydrate intake could influence independently the FFM in middle- and old-aged women. The FFM has no association with endurance exercise habits.

본 연구는 중년 여성들에게 있어서 웹보드 게임 경험은 어떤 의미를 갖는지 알아보려는 시도였다. 한국 중년 여성의 게임 경험은 매우 다차원적 의미를 갖는다. 가부장적 전통, 세대적 의미, 게임 담론, 테크놀로지의 발달과 확산이라는 점이 복잡하게 얽혀있다. 48세부터 63세에 이르는 여성 다섯 명과 심층면접을 실시하였다. 심층면접의 결과는 첫째, 이들에게 있어서 웹보드 게임은 노동에 반대되지만 동시에 노동을 함축하는 의미였다. 적극적 취미활동과는 구분되는 '휴식'이었고, 따라서 반(反)/준(準)노동적 성격을 가진다. 둘째, 중년은 비교적 시간적 여유가 생기는 시기지만, 중년 여성들이 자율적으로 적극적인 취미활동을 추구할 수 있는 여건은 아니었다. 셋째, 중년 여성들은 웹보드 게임을 무의미한 활동으로 여겨서 이를 위해 돈을 쓰거나 가사 일을 희생시키는 일은 용납하지 않았다. 넷째, 게임을 통해 기존의 사회적 관계가 온라인으로 이어지거나 새로운 사회적 관계가 형성되지는 않았다. 나만의 시간과 공간을 추구하는 의지가 반영되는 것이다. 이상의 결과를 통해, 중년 여성의 게임 경험이라는 비교적 새로운 소재에 대한 개략적인 그림을 그릴 수 있었다.
