  • Recently, the number of elderly people in the rural area of Korea has increased remarkably and their food security has become deteriorated mainly due to the low economic status. To investigate the food security for the elderly people, relevant data were obtained by offering questionnaire to the rural elderly people who were engaging in traditional agricultural production for daily foods. The subjects of 1870 were collected in 9 provinces according to PPS(Probability Proportional to Size). Questionnaire contained the items of dietary habit, food cultivation, Production and Preservation, and the suey was conducted by trained interviewers. SAS (ver 8.1) was used for statistical analyses in which Chi-square tests and General Linear Models were made. Family of the elderly people was $45.4\%$ of the total and the characteristics of elderly families were that age of male head was 82.1 years and that of female was 67.7 years, and that $68.8\%$ of elderly women were working for family income or pocket money. The elderly families' food cultivation state was surveyed and they were pepper$(59.1\%)$, chinese cabbage$(61.91\%)$, and sesame$(48.6\%)$ for their own consumption. But, bean sprout$(6.5\%)$, tofu$(7.7\%)$ and egg$(5.1\%)$ showed low rate of cultivation for the family. The rate of cultivating chinese cabbage$(61.9\%)$, and sesame$(48.6\%)$ was significantly higher than that of middle aged family. At the status of fermented food production for the elderly family, Doenjang$(87.4\%)$ and Gochujang$(86.3\%)$ Kanjang$(84.0\%)$ Kimchi$(92.9\%)$ Jangachi$(27.6\%)$ and Meju$(91.61\%)$maintained higher rate than that of middle aged families' Food preservation of elderly families was low and there are just jam$(5.3\%)$ and bottled products$(1.4\%)$. A little higher rate was observed lot the preserved food such as alcohol$(9.9\%)$ and powder$(9.8\%)$. For the elderly family the score of food cultivation was 4.08/12 points and that of food preservation was 0.62/12 points. The score of fermented food production for elderly family was 10.24/12 points which was significantly different from that of middle aged family (9.58/12 points, p<0.001). This result suggests that for the elderly people food with more protein is needed for production.

  • Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate middle-aged drivers' driving performance and heart-rate as the behavior and physiological changes due to intersection types in left-turn situation. Background: In Korea, the drivers were aged 40~50s are most plentiful. In addition, the intersection traffic accidents are increasing every year. However, the researches for middle-aged drivers and intersection environments have been little. Method: In this study, three kinds of left-turning intersection types(T1, T2, T3) was used as the within-subject independent variables, three age groups(young, middle-aged, elderly) was used as the between-subject independent variables. Also, passing time, approaching velocity, speed and steering variations and heart-rate were used as dependent variables. Results: Overall, middle-aged drivers' driving behaviors were similar to those of the younger drivers. At the T2 intersection type, however, the approaching velocity of middle-aged drivers was similar to younger drivers, whereas the passing time of middle-aged drivers was similar to elderly drivers. Conclusion: These results could be interpreted that a transition driving behavior of middle-aged drivers in terms of age would be appeared on the T2 intersection type. Application: The results might help to understand the characteristics of driving behavior for middle-aged drivers.

  • 본 연구는 중고령 성인학습자의 대학생활적응이 행복감에 미치는 영향을 알아보는데 목적을 둔다. 이를 위해 대구광역시 및 경북에 위치한 2년제 전문대학과 4년제 대학교에 재학 중인 중고령 성인학습자 321명을 대상으로 조사 및 분석하였으며, 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 중고령 성인학습자의 일반적 특성에 따른 대학생활적응은 50대와 2학년, 건강상태가 좋은편이다가 높게 나타났고, 행복감은 여성과 60대, 3학년, 부부만 사는 가구형태에서 높게 나타났다. 둘째, 중고령 성인학습자의 대학생활적응과 행복감 간에는 정적 상관관계가 있으며, 그 중 내적성장 만족과 의미추구 만족의 상관관계가 가장 높게 나타났다. 셋째, 중고령 성인학습자의 대학생활적응이 행복감에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 대학생활적응의 하위요소인 성인학생관계적응이 행복감에 가장 큰 영향을 미쳤다. 이상의 연구결과는 대학생활에서 경험하는 다양한 긍정적인 경험이 학생 관계와 심리적인 안정감 및 육체적인 긴장을 완화시키고 내적인 성장에 대한 스스로의 만족감을 향상시킴으로 행복감에 영향을 줄 수 있음을 시사한다.

  • 본 연구는 좌절-공격성 이론을 근거로 중년의 차별경험이 노인에 대한 차별행동에 미치는 영향을 실증적으로 분석하고, 이 영향력이 노인지위를 어떻게 인식하는지에 따라 달라지는지를 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 2011년 한국종합사회조사(KGSS)를 사용하여 조사 당시 연령을 기준으로 중년층(40-54세) 509명의 응답지를 분석하였다. STATA14 통계프로그램을 이용하여 기술통계분석, 상관관계, 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과 중년의 노인에 대한 차별행동 수준은 2.20점(5점)으로 약간 낮은 수준으로 나타났으며, 노인지위에 대해서는 2.45점(4점)으로 중간정도라고 인식하는 것으로 나타났다. 중년이 경험하는 차별은 0.74로 평균적으로 1개 이하의 차별경험을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 다중회귀분석 결과 상호작용항을 투입하지 않은 경우 연구참여자의 차별경험은 노인에 대한 차별행동에 직접적인 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나, 노인지위인식의 상호작용항을 투입한 결과 차별경험은 노인 차별행동에 정적 영향을 미쳤고, 노인지위인식은 차별경험이 노인차별행동에 미치는 영향에 부적상호작용 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과에 따라 차별받은 경험이 또 다른 사람에 대한 차별 행동으로 이어지는 악순환을 끊고 노인차별의 확산을 방지하기 위해 노인의 이미지 개선과 평등의식의 확산 등의 정책적, 실천적 제언을 하였다.

  • The health-related habits, dietary behaviors and health status as well as the relationships between the health-related habits and dietary behaviors and the health status were investigated in the subjects of the middle aged(20 male and 50 female with the average age of 56.4$\pm$6.1) and the elderly(15 male and 15 female with the average of 68.4$\pm$3.6) living in Chonju. The survey included the personal interview using questionnaires, anthropometric measurement and biochemical tests in December, 1998. The breakfast irregularity was shown in 5.7% of male and 10.8% of female. The consumption of generally lightly salted foods was practiced in half of the subjects. The prevalence of smoking and alcohol drinking were shown in 20% and 31.4% of male group respectively. As judged by their body mass indices(BMI), none of the subjects was belong to the obesity group. However, the considerable degree of overweight was found in female subjects. The upper-body obesity was more prevalent in female compared to male group. The percentages of the anemic subjects as judged by WHO hemoglobin level were found to be relatively high specially for female(26.2%). The blood pressure, serum total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol determination showed that the middle aged males and the elderly females tend to have higher levels compared to the different age bracket subjects from two-way ANOVA. Therefore, it can be assumed that the middle aged males and the elderly females are under the greater risk than the other groups. The analysis of the relationships between health-related habits and dietary behavior, and the health status showed that the regularity of breakfast, the consumption of lightly salted foods, the frequency of exercise and the alcohol drinking pattern influenced the city dwellers and the risk-related health habits as well as dietary behavior.

  • 본 연구에서는 중노년층의 본인의 노화에 대한 태도에 관한 종단적 변화와 이에 영향을 미치는 요인을 알아보기 위해 "고령화와 한국노인의 삶의 질에 관한 연구"의 3개년도 자료를 잠재성장모델로 분석하였다. 분석결과, 중노년층의 본인의 노화에 대한 태도는 시간이 지남에 따라 부정적으로 변화하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 고연령집단일수록, 무배우일수록, 농촌지역 거주자일수록, 교육수준이 낮을수록, 사회활동의 수가 적을수록, 주관적 경제상태에 여유가 없을수록, 주관적 건강상태가 나쁠수록 중노년층의 본인의 노화에 대한 초기 태도는 부정적인 것으로 나타났다. 중노년층의 본인의 노화에 대한 태도의 종단적 변화는 거주지역, 교육수학기간, 주관적 경제상태, 주관적 건강상태에 따라 다른 것으로 나타났다. 연구결과를 토대로 중노년층이 본인의 노화에 대한 부정적인 태도를 줄이기 위해 필요한 정책적, 실천적 시사점에 대해 논의하였다.
