  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the remodeling of Carnation House, examine the current state of the spatial remodeling, and propose the future direction of the spatial remodeling of communal life facilities for the elderly living alone. To this end, experimental investigation, photograph shooting, and interviews with managers were performed, and a remodeling analysis was conducted by comparing the data before and after the remodeling. The study results can be summarized as below. First, as there is no standard for the remodeling of communal life facilities for the elderly living alone, related guidelines should be provided in the near future. Second, more fundamental approach to the remodeling should be made considering medical services for the elderly's safety, universal design plans, lifestyles of the elderly, and their use behaviors. Third, as communal life facilities for the elderly living alone normally have small spaces due to the remodeling by change of use, variable spatial planning should be performed for the elderly to utilize communal life facilities as multi-purpose and multi-functional spaces. Fourth, as the terrace space is an essential remodeling space needed for the elderly's rest, communication, and creation of profits, its remodeling should be realized in such a way that various programs can be utilized. Fifth, it turned out that the exterior remodeling could change the overall image of the facilities through new materials and colors.

  • The purpose of this study was to examine the beneficial effects of a new cognitive intervention program designed for the care and prevention of dementia, namely Learning Therapy. The training program used systematized basic problems in arithmetic and Japanese language as training tasks. In study 1, 16 individuals in the experimental group and 16 in the control group were recruited from a nursing home. In both groups, all individuals were clinically diagnosed with senile dementia of the Alzheimer type. In study 2, we performed a single-blind, randomized controlled trial in our cognitive intervention program of 124 community-dwelling seniors. In both studies, the daily training program using reading and arithmetic tasks was carried out approximately 5 days a week, for 15 to 20 minutes a day in the intervention groups. Neuropsychological measures were determined simultaneously in the groups both prior to and after six months of the intervention. The results of our investigations indicate that our cognitive intervention using reading and arithmetic problems demonstrated a transfer effect and they provide convincing evidence that cognitive training maintains and improves the cognitive functions of dementia patients and healthy seniors.

  • This study investigated the role of fashion granfluencers as cultural intermediaries in the present digital era. The concept of fashion granfluencer as cultural intermediaries and their fashion style characteristics were defined and examined. The literature on cultural intermediaries, social media, and seniors in the context of fashion was reviewed. Primarily, three characteristics of cultural intermediaries-interactive communication, nonconformist attitude, and aesthetic disposition-were identified and used as analytical variables in this study. Through netnography, 1,452 Instagram posts from the renowned fashion granfluencer Iris Apfel (@iris.apfel) were examined. This study presented Iris as a fashion granfluencer and a senior professional, who uses fashion to express herself and define her identity. As a cultural mediator, she contributes to revitalizing the cultural economy and creating cultural products. Iris Apfel' fashion and style embody her digital persona. Her engagement in fashion activities-producing fashion content or attending fashion events-mediates the relationship between fashion producers and fashion consumers, thereby promoting the aesthetic value of fashion.

  • 후기구조주의 프랑스 철학자 질 들뢰즈와 펠릭스 가타리는 소수성과 소수자에 관한 논의를 통해 현대사회는 이미 소수자의 시대가 도래하고 있음을 강조한다. 즉, 노인과 같은 사회적 약자이자 특이성을 지닌 소수자들의 '- 되기'를 제시하고 있다. '- 되기'는 어떻게 하면 기존의 동일성에서 분열하여 다른 삶, 다른 주체로 살아갈 것인가에 대한 실천적 방법론이다. 연구 목적은 '여성 - 되기'를 위한 노인 미디어 교육을 탐색하여 노인여성들이 주체적으로 참여할 수 있는 노인 미디어 교육의 실천 방안을 모색하고자 한다. 이론적 논의는 들뢰즈와 가타리의 주요 개념과 사유들을 검토하고자 한다. 이러한 사유를 전제하는 이유는 기존의 양적 기준으로 정의되었던 소수자와 소수성에 대한 재해석을 통해 소수자로서 노인여성들의 욕망을 '- 되기'라는 생성의 차원으로 재조명하고자 함이다. 이를 통해 구체적이고 긍정적인 효과를 낼 수 있는 노인 미디어 교육의 방향을 제시하고자 한다.

  • 우리나라의 베이비 부머는 전체 인구구조의 약 1/4을 차지하는 인구집단으로서, 기존의 세대들이 경험하지 못한 기대수명 100세라는 초 고령화 시대에 직면하고 있다. 이들 세대는 압축적 경제성장의 주역으로 건강한 신체와 풍부한 경제력, 여가 문화적 소비욕구를 바탕으로 지속적 경제활동과 적극적 사회참여 욕구를 가지고 있어 기존의 노인세대와 구분되는 새로운 인구계층으로 '액티브 시니어'의 주 대상으로 불리고 있다. 본 연구는 전국에서 가장 높은 베이비 부머 거주 밀도를 보이는 서울시를 대상으로 예비적 고령자로서 베이비 부머의 주거욕구가 무엇인지 소비자 관점에서 상향식 과정을 통해 살펴보고 이를 주거단지계획 기준으로 선정하고자 하였다. 분석결과, 서울시의 베이비부머는 주거단지계획 기준요소로 '사회 접근성'을 가장 높게 평가하고, '의료 접근성'은 두 번째로 중요한 요소로 판단하였다. 기타 '생활 편의성', '공간 인지성' 등이 차하의 순위를 기록하였다. 연구를 통해 서울시에 거주하는 베이비 부머는 생애주기적 관점에서 액티브 시니어가 지향하는 라이프 스타일과 매우 유사하다고 분석되었고, 이는 기존 노인세대가 보였던 고령자 전용적 거주선호와 구별되는 액티브 시니어의 틈새적 주거욕구라 판단된다.

  • 본 연구는 비약적으로 증가하는 인천국제공항 이용객들의 수요로 제 2 신공항의 개항을 빠르게 추진하는 현재, 인천국제공항 이용하는 이용자들의 편의를 제공하는 공항 서비스 인력자원의 이탈을 방지하고 보다 나은 서비스를 제공하여 공항 서비스 품질의 인적관리 부분에 중점을 주고자 공항 서비스 인력자원의 이직요인을 조직헌신의 매개효과를 중심으로 연구되었다. 연구결과 첫째, 직무관련 요인에서는 역할갈등과 역할과중만이 조직헌신에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째로는 조직관련 요인 중에서는 보상과 동료상사관계가 조직헌신에 영향을 주고 있는 것으로 나타났고, 세번째로는 조직헌신이 높을수록 이직행동이 높았다. 네 번째 이직에 영향을 주는 직무관련 요인은 역할갈등으로만 나왔으며, 다섯 번째로 조직혁신 요인 중에는 보상과 의사결정만이 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 종사원의 이탈을 방지하기 위해서 앞에서 제시했던 것처럼 가치적이나, 금적적인 보상이 이루어져야 하며, 장기근속으로 연결할 수 있도록 할 수 있는 환경을 기업의 입장에서 종사원에게 제시하고 동료, 상사와의 관계를 돈독할 수 있는 제도를 마련하는 것이 시급하다고 할 수 있다.

  • In recent years, there has been increasing interest in the senior people in our aging society. This paper will give an account of the current cases of senior shift. The first section of this paper will examine a conceptual approach based on a literature review and analyze case studies of senior shifts by national fashion and beauty brands. It will be helpful for the 'New Senior' consumer group, which in emerging in an aging society. The research methods applied were a literature review and a case study, and a database search was conducted to determine the current situation of global brands. The results of the literature review showed that seniors can be classified into four types based on their physical aging condition and emotional tendency: Prime Senior, Smart Senior, Rational Senior, and Slump Senior. The first thing that needs to be said is that the Prime Senior type is found commonly in as a way to appoint a senior model in order to switch brand image. Cases of the Smart Senior type appeared only in the beauty field, which attempted multilateral approaches such as launching products exclusively for seniors and offering make-up services after improving the usability and functionality in response to senior consumers'needs. However, as no cases of senior shift were found for the Rational Senior and Slump Senior types in either the fashion or beauty field, future studies should explore the market approaches used in those categories.
