This is the forth consecutive study on the 'Standardization of Measurement for Korean Kitchen Work Centers and Cabinets for Future Design Criteria'. The purpose of the present research was (1) to classify homemakers' representative like styles related to the kitchen, (2) to examine homemakers' present concerns on the kitchen space, and (3) to investigate homemakers' desire and preference on the kitchen space. Twenty two hundred homemakers of upper and middle class residing in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Incheon, Gwangju and Daejeon were selected for the survey and 1,843 among them were used for data analysis. Data were selected for the survey and 1,843 among them were used for data analysis. Data were analyzed using the SAS program package.

본 연구는 노인일자리사업이 노인들의 자아존중감과 생활만족도에 미치는 영향을 알아봄으로써 노인일자리 사업의 효과성을 실증적으로 검증하였다. 조사는 순천시에 거주하는 노인일자리사업 참여노인과 비참여노인 총 389명을 대상으로 설문을 실시하였고 자료의 분석은 SPSS Win 10.0 프로그램을 이용하여 t-검정과 일원변량분석, 상관관계분석, 단계적 다중회귀분석 등을 실시하였다. 연구결과에 의하면 첫째, 노인일자리사업 참여 노인이 비참여노인보다 자아존중감과 생활만족도가 높았다. 둘째, 노인일자리사업 참여가 노인 자아존중감과 생활만족도 수준을 높이는 데 가장 긍정적인 영향을 미치고 있으며, 그 밖에 연령, 교육수준, 소득수준, 가족, 건강 등이 영향을 미치고 있었다. 셋째, 노인의 자아존중감과 생활만족도에 가장 높은 상관관계를 보이는 변수는 노인일자리사업 참여여부였고, 건강, 학력, 연령, 결혼상태, 거주형태, 한 달 생활비, 경제상태, 주거에서도 유의한 상관관계가 나타났다. 넷째, 노인일자리사업 참여여부, 학력, 경제상태, 연령 등의 변수들은 자아존중감 정도를 32% 설명하고 있었고, 생활만족도 정도를 48% 설명하고 있었다. 노인들의 자아존중감과 생활만족도를 높이기 위해서는 노년기의 일의 중요성을 깨닫고 많은 노인들이 노인일자리사업에 참여할 수 있도록 사업을 활성화시키는 노력이 필요함을 알 수 있다.

65세 이상 노인들을 대상으로 거주형태와 생활요인 등이 노인 우울장애와 얼마나 관련 있는지 파악하고자 본 연구를 수행하였다. 경주시에 거주하는 65세 이상의 노인들 중 요양시설노인 50명, 재가노인 72명, 독거노인 34명 등 총 156명을 대상으로 저자들이 자체 개발한 설문지로 조사하였다. 우울장애 검사는 한국형 노인우울검사를 사용하였다. 한국형 노인우울검사의 점수를 기준으로 할 때, 정상은 56.4%(88명)이었고 우울군의 양성률은 43.6%(68명)이었다. 경도 우울군은 21.8%(34명), 중등도 우울군은 7.1%(11명), 고도 우울군은 14.7%(23명)의 양성률을 보였다. 단변량분석에서 성별, 결혼상태, 거주형태, 가전제품, 한달 용돈, 학력, 외출횟수 등이 우울장애와 유의한 관련이 있었다. 요양시설노인의 경우 중등도 우울군은 10.0%(5명), 심도 우울군은 32.0%(16명)로 요양시설노인이 재가노인 및 독거노인에 비해 유의하게 우울장애 양성률이 높았다(p<0.05). 로지스틱 회귀분석에서 요양시설노인군이 재가노인군에 대해 교차비가 16.08(95% 신뢰구간: 3.60-71.88), 한 달 용돈이 10만원 미만 노인군이 10만원 이상 노인군에 대해 교차비가 14.84(95% 신뢰구간: 4.35-50.63) 이었다.
