Background: In this study we investigated factors influencing cancer screening intention and behavior to develop measures to increase the rate of cancer screening in the Korean elderly. Materials and Methods: Participants included 425 elderly subjects 65 years of age or older from D city, South Korea. The health behavior characteristics and cancer screening-related and theory of planned behavior (TPB) factors influencing the participant attitudes on cancer screening were examined to identify determinants significantly affecting cancer screening intentions and behavior. Results: Predictive factors influencing cancer screening behavior included smoking, exercise, cancer concerns, preference for the type of cancer screening, prior experience with the National Cancer Screening Program, perception of the National Cancer Screening Program, behavioral control with respect to cancer screening and cancer screening intentions. The factors influencing cancer screening behavior were different from those for cancer screening intentions. Conclusions: Increasing the cancer screening intentions of the elderly is necessary to raise the rates of cancer screening. Additionally, identifying the inhibitory factors that serve as obstacles to cancer screening in the elderly and changing screening intentions into actual screening behavior is necessary. This study provides a reference for developing and applying policy measures and intervention strategies to increase the cancer screening rates of the elderly in Korea.

The relationships among self efficacy, depression and coping with cancer were examined in 194 outpatients who had received a diagnosis of cancer. The sample for this descriptive correlational study consisted of people who were at least 19 years old and had been treated for cancer at 6 hospital in Seoul. Data were collected using a self-report questionnaire. The results of this study are as follows: 1. People who attributed cancer to heredity/family showed the highest mean score of self efficacy. People who attributed cancer to smoking showed the highest mean score of depression. and coping. 2. There were significant differences between causal attribution and depression and between causal attribution and coping. 3. There was a negative correlation between self-efficacy and depression(r=-.301, p= .000), whereas there was a positive correlation between self-efficacy and coping (r=.195, 0=.006). Finally, it is evident that identifying clear perceived causes, self-efficacy, depression and coping in patients with cancer continues to challenge researchers. Based upon this study, it is recommended that future research have a longitudinal design that allows for the identification of changes in perception, emotion and coping and, possibly, different relationships over time.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors affecting hearing loss in adolescent's use of PCPs, and to give the basic data for adolescent's hearing conservation program development and prevention education against their hearing loss. This study was a descriptive research about three factors affecting hearing loss; the knowledge and attitude about noise, the perception of hearing loss and the hearing threshold. The subjects of this study were 383 students in two general high schools and two vocational high schools in Teagu. They have been using PCPs but with no current or past ear disease. This study was carried out from Sep. 1. 2000 to Oct. 24, 2000. The instrument used for the knowledge and attitude about noise was a questionnaire developed by Rhee. Kyung Yong and Yi. Kwan Hyung(1996). The instrument used for the perception of hearing loss was a Smith Hearing Screening Questionnaire. A Belton Model 112 Audiometer. air-conduction hearing test instrument. was used for the hearing threshold. Data was analysed by a SPSS/Win 10.0 program with frequency. percentage, t-test. ANOVA and pearson correlation. The results of this study were as follows; 1. The average of concern about hearing scored the highest $3.66{\pm}0.70$. The average of perceived susceptibility scored $2.64{\pm}0.85$ and the average of knowledge about noise scored $2.13{\pm}0.56$. The average of total knowledge and attitude about noise scored $2.82{\pm}0.46$. The average of discomfort of hearing loss($2.51{\pm}0.81$) scored higher than that fear of hearing loss($1.35{\pm}0.53$). The average of total perception of hearing loss scored $1.93{\pm}0.59$. The hearing threshold of the subjects scored the highest at 500Hz(Lt. $23.21{\pm}6.62$, Rt. $23.39{\pm}7.02$) and scored higher in order of 1000Hz, 2000Hz, 4000Hz and 8000Hz. 2. The knowledge and attitude about noise and the perception of hearing loss were both affected only by one important characteristic, which was general and vocational high schools. The knowledge and attitude about noise raked (t=5.258, p=0.000), and perception of hearing loss raked(t=2.241. p=0.026). However. several other important characteristics also impacted significantly on the knowledge and attitudes about noise. They included grade (t = 1. 987. p=0.048), father's education(F=2.745. p=0.043), marks(F=3.157, p=0.044), drinking(t=2.307, p=0.022) and smoking(t=2.587, p=0.010). The left hearing threshold differed significantly by sex at 1000Hz(t=5.175, p<0.001) and 8000Hz (t=3.334, p<0.01). According to general and vocational high schools (p<0.001), at 500Hz (t=-5.056), 1000Hz (t=-5.253), 2000Hz (t=-4.905), 4000Hz (t=-4.704) and 8000Hz (t=-5.204) significant differences were also shown. Marks were significant at 1000Hz (F=3.824, p<0.05) and drinking was found to be significant at 500Hz(t=2.203, p<0.05). The right hearing threshold differed significantly by sex at l000Hz(t=5.557. p<0.001). 4000Hz(t=2.234. p<0.05) and 8000Hz (t=2.730. p<0.01). According to general and vocational high schools(p<0.001) at 500Hz (t=-4.730), 1000Hz(t=-6.271). 2000Hz (t=-4.573). 4000Hz(t=-3.554) and 8000Hz (t=-3.405) significant differences were also shown. Grades impacted at 500Hz(t=2.201. p<0.05) and 4000Hz(t=2.511. p<0.05), while marks were significant at l000Hz(F=4.1l5. p<0.05) and drinking was significant at 500Hz(t=2.333. p<0.05). 3. The left hearing threshold in accordance with use of PCPs differed significantly at 2000Hz(F=2.996. p=0.03l) according to volume level and at 8000Hz(F=2.197. p=0.022) according to duration${\times}$hours per day. The right hearing threshold differed significantly at l000Hz(F=3.075. p=0.028) according to volume level and at 8000Hz(F=2.925. p=0.034) according to duration. 4. The knowledge and attitudes about noise showed a light positive correlation with the perception of hearing loss. A positive correlation was shown. as stated previously in all Hz, between the left hearing threshold and the right hearing threshold, especially the highest correlation at 2000Hz(r=0.761. p=0.000). This study has shown that the factors related to adolescent's use of PCPs are important as they impact significantly an adolescent's hearing. These results then indicate that in future, when designing a hearing conservation program and prevention education this data should be considered.

복합유기용제를 취급하는 근로자들을 대상으로 유기용제의 폭로가 신경행동기능에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위하여 대구지역의 중소규모 사업장에서 톨루엔, 크실렌, 메틸에틸케톤 및 신나에 만성적으로 폭로되는 유기용제 폭로군 48명과 폭로군과 같은 사업장에 근무하면서 유기용제에 폭로되지 않은 대조군 50명을 대상으로 1996년 8월에서 10월까지 연령, 교육수준, 음주, 흡연량 및 직업관련 변수들을 조사하고 Neurobehavioral Core Test Battery의 검사항목 중 Benton visual retention검사, 숫자부호 짝짓기, 숫자 외우기, 목적점찍기를 시행하였다. Benton visual retention검사는 폭로군이 7.9개, 대조군이 8.2개로 두군에서 유의한 차이가 없었으며, 숫자부호 짝짓기의 경우 폭로군이 55.6개, 대조군이 62.1개로서 폭로군이 유의하게 적었다(p<0.01). 숫자 외우기의 총 점수와 거꾸로 따라외우기의 점수가 폭로군에서 유의하게 적었으며(p<0.05, p<0.01) 목적점찍기의 바르게 찍은 점의 개수가 폭로군에서 유의하게 적었다(p<0.05). 연령의 변화에 따른 신경행동기능의 일관성있는 변화는 없었으나 Benton visual retention검사의 경우 젊은 연령군이 고연령군에 비해 대조군에서 유의하게 높은 성적을 보였다(p<0.05). 부호숫자짝짓기의 경우 폭로군과 대조군 모두에서 학력이 높을수록 검사성적이 유의하게 높은 경향을 보였다(p<0.05). 숫자부호짝짓기에서 섭취하는 알콜의 량이 많을수록 폭로군의 부호숫자짝짓기 검사성적이 감소하는 경향을 보였다(p<0.05). 목적점찍기의 경우 폭로군에서 흡연량이 증가할수록 성적이 감소하는 경향을 보였다(p<0.05). 신경행동학적 검사성적을 종속변수로 하고 유기용제의 폭로유모, 나이, 학력수준, 알콜 및 흡연량을 독립변수로 한 다중회귀분석에서 Benton visual retention검사는 연령이 증가할수록 그 성적이 감소하는 경향을 보였으며(p<0.05), 숫자부호짝짓기는 학력이 높을수록 성적이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다(p<0.01). 숫자외우기에서는 유기용제의 폭로가 유의한 변수로 채택되었다(p<0.01). 목적점찍기의 총점수는 흡연량과 교육수준이(p<0.01), 바르게 찍은 개수는 흡연량과 유기용제의 폭로가 유의한 변수로 채택되었다(p<0.05). 유기용제의 폭로에 의해 지각반응(perception-response)과 단기기억능력(short-term memory)이 민감하게 영향을 받는 것으로 평가되었으며, 특히 허용 농도이하에서도 장기적으로 폭로되는 경우 폭로자의 신경행동기능에 변화를 초래할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. NCTB에 의한 신경행동기능의 평가는 신경독성물질의 폭로이외에도 연령과 교육수준에 영향을 받으며 특히 지속적 운동능력의 경우 흡연에도 다소 영향을 받을 가능성을 제시하였다.
