본 연구는 서울시에 거주하는 65세 이상 남녀 임금근로자 12명을 대상으로 고령 임금근로자들의 일하는 삶이 갖는 의미와 본질적 구조를 탐색하였다. 심층적인 분석을 위해 질적 연구방법의 하나인 Giorgi(2012)의 현상학적 연구방법을 사용하였다. 연구결과 총 349개의 의미단위, 35개의 중심의미, 16개의 드러난 주제(하위 구성요소), 그리고 6개의 본질적 주제(구성요소)를 구성하였다. 본질적 주제는 괄시와 편견을 견디는 삶, 노년의 포도청(捕盜廳), 을 중의 을로서의 멍에, 뛰어 넘을 수 없는 벽, 일을 통해 청년의 시간 되살리기, 노동 자존감이었고, 이러한 6개의 본질적 주제는 '고단한 노년의 삶 속에서 간헐적으로 느끼는 작은 행복'으로 귀결되었다. 연구 참여자들은 고령 임금근로자에 대한 사회적 차별과 불안정한 고용환경으로 인해 삶이 고단하지만, 노년에도 일을 할 수 있다는 안도감과 노동을 통한 자긍심을 통해 고단함을 견딜 수 있는 것으로 드러났다. 고령임금근로자들에게 일은 경제적 고민을 덜어 줄 뿐만 아니라 노동을 통해 노년기 자존감을 높여주고 건강을 유지하게 해 주는 중요한 수단이었다. 일하는 노년의 삶은 고단하다. 그러나 노동 자체가 고령 임금근로자의 삶을 고단하게 만들기보다는, 단지 나이가 많다는 이유로 겪는 부당한 처우와 사회적인 편견, 괄시가 일하는 삶의 무게를 가중시킨다는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 연구결과를 토대로 다음과 같이 제언하였다. 첫째, 일하는 노인에 대한 사회적 차별과 부당한 근로환경은 인권보호의 관점에서 사회적 논의와 법적 조치가 필요하다. 둘째, 고령자들의 경험을 활용해 사회적으로 기여할 수 있는 다양한 서비스 일자리를 창출해야 한다. 셋째, 고령 근로자들이 컴퓨터를 활용한 업무능력을 향상시키고 스트레스를 줄일 수 있도록 컴퓨터 및 인터넷 교육 프로그램을 확대할 필요가 있다.

최근 한국 사회는 연일 쏟아져 나오는 아동방임 및 학대 사건으로 충격 속에서 헤어나지 못하고 있다. 이러한 학대를 경험한 피해아동은 정서적, 정신적, 신체적 외상으로 불완전한 아동보호체계 아래 또 다른 사회문제의 중심에 서있을 수밖에 없는 현실 속에 있다. 이러한 아이들을 보호하기 위해서 미국에서는 CASA(Court Appointed Special Advocates: 법원임명특별옹호자) 프로그램이 실시되고 있다. 이 CASA 프로그램의 효과는 수많은 연구를 통해 학대아동을 위한 질높은 옹호 가능성이 증가하였고, 그들을 위한 더 나은 서비스 제공이 가능해졌으며, 아동복지비용을 절감하는 효과를 가져올 수 있었다. 한국에서도 2014년 아동학대 범죄 등의 처벌에 관한 특례법 제정(이하 '아동학대처벌법')으로, 학대아동이 공적체계 보호로 들어온 것은 사실이나, 이들의 안정적인 보호를 위한 지속적인 정서적 지원은 미흡한 현실이다. 하지만, 현재 한국에서도 아동학대에 대한 공적체계의 개입이 증가하고 있고, 또한 아동학대 재발방지를 위한 적극적인 모니터링을 통한 국가의 개입 강화와 아동권리에 대한 인식이 증가되고 있다. 한국사회의 이러한 변화들은 미국의 CASA 프로그램을 적극적으로 검토하여 한국 사회에 국가적인 사업으로 정착시킬 수 있는 가능성을 보여준다. 이것을 통해 아동학대 피해아동의 안전과 권리가 보호받을 수 있는 체계와 학대 피해아동이 방치되어 더 큰 사회적 문제가 발생되지 않도록 사전에 예방할 수 있는 방안이 될 것으로 기대된다.

Since the late 1980s, there have been radical changes in the managerial environment of Y University Medical Center(YUMC). Externally, the competition among hospitals has intensified due to the establishment of universal health insurance in 1939 and the entrance of large enterprises into the health care industry in the early 1990s. In addition, government regulation of medical institution is becoming stricter. Also, consumer groups have continued to demand the respect for patient rights and improvement of the quality of medical services. Internally, the financial condition of YUMC has worsened, not only because weak control and poor mediation in its large-scale structure have made its operation inefficient, but also because the rates of increase in the prices of goods and labor have grown faster than any increases in revenues. This study on materials management at YUMC presents a way for YUMC to reduce costs and increase its productivity, thereby overcoming its financial difficulties and dealing with external pressures. This study utilized the case studies of the materials purchasing and medical supply management in the United States and the comparative analysis of management to suggest short-term and long-term alternatives for innovation in YUMC. The goals of the short-term alternatives for innovation are to centralize the purchasing and supply departments and to simplify the decision-making processes. Through these attempts, it is estimated that YUMC's costs could be reduced by $600,000 per year. In the long-term, it is necessary to consider introducing a Supply Processing Distribution(SPD) system and setting up a centralized electronic system for supply and inventory management, although it is difficult to estimate the effect of cost-cutting because of the lack of analysis data. Thus, YUMC should thoroughly analyze initial investment costs and economical efficiency generated from long-term alternatives.

Objectives: The study investigated constipation in male and female high school students and in order to provide data base for development of education and intervention programs aimed at preventing and managing constipation in high school students. Methods: The study used a technique of convenience sampling to mobilize the entire students in an academic high school in D region. Of the combined 360 copies of questionnaire distributed, 340 copies were collected and used for the final analysis. The gathered data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, and ${\chi}^2-test$ in SPSS 21. Results: The ratio of female students with constipation is significantly higher than that of male students with the condition(${\chi}^2=5.73$, p=0.017), and there were significant differences in exercise habits(${\chi}^2=26.75$, p<0.001), eating habits(${\chi}^2=43.19$, p<0.001), and bowel habits(${\chi}^2=22.96$, p<0.001) between female students and male students. Also there was significant difference in water intake between the normal group and the constipation group(${\chi}^2=10.01$, p=0.040). Significant differences between the two groups were also discovered in the level of perception of constipation(${\chi}^2=98.76$, p<0.001), bowel movement time(${\chi}^2=15.74$, p=0.008), and use of laxatives(${\chi}^2=17.68$, p<0.001) and enema(${\chi}^2=16.97$, p<0.001) for constipation relief. Conclusions: To prevent and manage constipation in high school students, education about healthy dietary, and bowel habits is required. Also there is an urgent need to improve the school toilet environment in order to respect the rights of students to void or defecate when necessary, a process which will require involvement of students, teachers, and other school staff.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of clinical art therapy programs utilized at schools on adolescents' suicidal thoughts and stress relief and to validate their effectiveness as a type of adolescent suicide prevention program. Methods: 12 sessions of clinical art therapy for youth suicide prevention were provided, once a week for 90 minutes, for 20 students at five middle schools in Seoul who were at high risk of committing suicide. By using the paired sample t-test, the study presented qualitative data on the analysis of pre- and post- questionnaires and on the subjects' EEG test and saliva test. Results: First, through the clinical art therapy program, the subjects' happiness index improved significantly while their scores of depression and suicidal ideation (suicidal thoughts) decreased. Second, in the EEG and saliva test conducted after the art therapy sessions, emotional stability increased and stress was reduced significantly. Third, according to the results of pre- and post- K-HTP tests and individual activities, the subjects started to recognize the seriousness of suicide and show emotional stability and positive changes in overall attitudes, valuing the rights and life of their own 'precious selves' (self respect). Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that the clinical art therapy program is significantly effective at preventing suicidal ideation by reducing suicidal impulses and depression, by increasing the happiness index, which can serve as a protective factor against suicide, and by increasing emotional stability while reducing stress. Based on the results, there is a need to develop policy measures regarding art therapy programs which can be utilized at schools.

Purpose - This paper examines the explanatory power of the agency theory in the determination of cash holdings for Korean retail firms. If the agency theory holds, a firm with strong corporate governance structure tends to have low cash holdings. A strong governance structure makes the CEO of this firm to behave in the interests of shareholders and thus the CEO has low incentive to stockpile cash holdings, which can be easily diverted for the CEO's own managerial purposes. We investigate this relationship between corporate governance structure and cash holdings, by using corporate governance scores as a proxy variable that captures the effectiveness of corporate governance mechanism. Research design, data, and methodology - We adopt the sample of publicly listed retail firms in KOSPI market from 2005 to 2013. Financial and accounting statements are gathered from the WISEfn database. We also use the corporate governance scores published by Korean Corporate Governance Service. The relationship between the corporate governance scores and cash holdings is cross-sectionally estimated based on the ordinary least square method. This estimation method is widely accepted in the existing literature. The sample of large conglomerates, Chebol, and the remainder firms are separately examined as well, to account for the distinctive internal financing environment in these large conglomerates. Results - We mainly contribute to the extant literature by providing empirical evidence against the agency theory of cash policy. Unlike the prediction of agency theory, we confirm statistically insignificant or even positive correlations between the set of corporate governance scores and cash-asset ratios. Almost all the major corporate governance attributes including total score, shareholder rights, board structure, and the quality of information disclosure do not show negative correlations with cash holdings, which poses a strong challenge to the validity of the agency theory in the determination of retail firms' cash holdings. Conclusions - This study presents interesting empirical results with respect to the cash policy in Korean retail firms. Consistent to prior studies, I verify that the agency theory only limitedly explains the level of cash holdings. Future studies may obtain more robust results by examining a longer sample period.
