The purpose of this study is to employ a method called 'conflict impact assessment' to analyze the progress, background, cause and relevant issues of conflicts related with affordable housing for youth (Happiness Housing Project), a project that has been implemented since last May 2013, thereby identifying the relevant problems and draw out objectives for improvement. The researchers expect that this study will contribute to solving the current issues regarding Happiness Housing, and contribute to improving the quality of the government's policies. For the above purpose, literatures on Happiness Housing produced from August to November 2013 were reviewed, in-depth telephone or face-to-face interviews were conducted with personnel associated with project implementation in the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transportation and LH, etc., and major interested parties including Yangcheon-gu residents. Key issues identified regarding Happiness Housing construction include: the way that the project was implemented, living quality of residents, impact on educational environment, inconsistence with existing plans, relatively high construction cost, insolvency of public corporations, land use fee issue with Korail, need of preliminary feasibility survey, securing sufficient amount for supply and issue of additional designation, likelihood of finishing construction in time and issues related with actual source of demand, etc. Through analysis of conflict development and positions of interested parties, the main causes of the conflicts were identified as follows: lack of deliberation on pledges during election, lack of viability review on pledges, lack of conflict management plans, one-way implementation without consent of interested parties, project plans established with no regard to local circumstances, frequent project revision, underwehlming level of conflict management. In order to address issues above, the following measures need to be taken: selecting election pledges based on actual effectiveness, thorough assessment on pledges by relevant departments, gradual implementation based on consideration of the actual circumstances, participation of key interested parties, consistent policy and adopting conflict management techniques that reflect the reality.

A number of recent studies have shown that occupational stress is closely associated with increased fatigue and decreased job satisfaction. This study was designed to assess stress in workers in the field of EIA (environment impact assessment) from July 2009 through september 2009, and questionnaires were uesd to analyze the stress scores and identify the primary factors influencing stress in this occupation. The number of respondents was 272 working in the Capital (Seoul and Kyunggido), Chungcheongdo, Jejudo area. A structured questionnaire was used to evaluate the participants' socio-demographics, job-related factors, health-related behaviors, occupational stress, reaction factor (self-perceived fatigue, job satisfaction) and buffer factor (social support). Occupational stress and self-perceived fatigue were assessed using the Korean Occupational Stress Scale-Short Form (KOSS-SF) and the Multidimensional Fatigue Scale (MFS), respectively. The analysis revealed a strong correlation between occupational stress, job satisfaction, and social support, with occupational stress being associated with an increased risk of fatigue and decreased job satisfaction. In the multiple regression analysis(stepwise), the main factors influencing occupational stress were found to be job satisfaction, supervisor, fatigue, working time, no. of personnel, career. The results of this study suggest that occupational stress is a determinant predictor of self perceived fatigue and job satisfaction. Thus, a strong recommendation is made for a stress management program for reduction of occupational stress, and for the development of relevant experts on the health and quality of life of environment impact assessment workers.

In order to reduce the health inequalities within a society changes need to be made in broad health determinants and their distribution in the population. It has been expected that the Health impact assessment(HIA) and Healthy Cities can provide opportunities and useful means for changing social policy and environment related with the broad health determinants in developed countries. HIA is any combination of procedures or methods by which a proposed 4P(policy, plan, program, project) may be judged as to the effects it may have on the health of a population. Healthy city is one that is continually creating and improving those physical and social environments and expanding those community resources which enable people to mutually support each other in performing all the functions of life and in developing to their maximum potential. In Korea, social and academic interest regarding the HIA and Healthy Cities has been growing recently but the need of HIA and Healthy Cities in the perspective of reducing health inequality was not introduced adequately. So we reviewed the basic concepts and methods of the HIA and Healthy Cities, and its possible contribution to reducing health inequalities. We concluded that though the concepts and methods of the HIA and Healthy Cities are relatively new and still in need of improvement, they will be useful in approaching the issue of health inequality in Korea.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate self-esteem, family function, and social support which might influence stress in college students. Method: Data were collected from October 15 to December 20, 2007 when 411 students completed a questionnaire which included Self-esteem scale, Family APGAR questionnaire, Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support and Global Assessment of Recent Stress scale. The collected data was analyzed with the SPSS Win 14.0 statistics program. Results: The scores for stress showed significantly negative correlations with the scores for self-esteem (r= -.394, p<.001), family function (r= -.215, p<.001), and social support (r= -.249, p<.001). Self-esteem, family function and social support by friends were significant predictors and accounted for 18.5% of the variance in stress in undergraduate students. Conclusion: Future stress management programs for undergraduate students should be developed to reinforce self-esteem, family function and social support by friends.

The aim of this paper is to review integrated assessment studies conducted to address the impacts of climate change sea-level rise on agricultural sector and to derive suggestions for improving the integrated assessment process to assist decision-makers in establishing climate change adaptation policy. We collect integrated assessment studies which are based on the impact-pathway analysis, compare their step-by-step procedures and identify main factors addressed in each step. The assessment process is typically carried out in the sequence of scenario development, determination of assessment scope, physical impact assessment, economic analysis and synthesis of the outcomes from each step. We identify two types of integrated assessment. The first one examines the impacts of changes in temperature and/or precipitation on the crop-cultivation patterns and/or agricultural productivity and resulting economic effects on agricultural sector. The other investigates the impacts of sea-level rise on land use/coverage and resulting economic damages in terms of land-value loss where the effects on agriculture is treated as one sector among others. To enhance integrated assessment, we suggest that 1) scenarios need to incorporate the effects of climate change and sea-level rise simultaneously, 2) scope of the assessment needs to be extended to include ecosystem services as well as crop production, 3) social and cultural aspects need to be considered in addition to economic analysis, and 4) synthesis of the outcomes from each step should be able to combine quantitative as well as qualitative information.

The comparative evaluation is the most effective method for site selection because the selection of waste treatment facility is to determine the optimum site out of limited candidate sites. This study adopted the ordinal scale evaluation, one of methods of comparative evaluation. The ordinal scale evaluation aims to determine the investigating items referring to the character of sites, to determine the importance factors for investigating items, and to determine the optimum site according to the quantitative evaluation. As a result of this study, the defects of the former reports on the environmental characteristics, such as obscurity of meaning and subjective statement, were reduced by the ordinal scale evaluation which is one of the quantitative evaluation methods. This ordinal scale evaluation method has some valuable advantages, such as, to be able to consider the cost-effect efficiency, to consider the objectiveness and the clearness of the reports on the environmental characteristics. Therefore the reducement of social complications about site selection of the indisposed facilities could be expected by this study.

관광단지 개발사업은 자연환경이 양호하고 경관이 우수한 지역을 대상으로 추진됨에 따라 주변 지역에 대한 환경부하를 지나치게 가중하는 점이 문제로 제시된 바 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 2012년~2021년간 이루어진 국내 관광단지 개발사업의 환경영향평가 결과를 토대로 동 사업으로 야기되는 환경영향을 파악하였다. 특히 다양한 환경영향을 종합적·정량적으로 분석하고자 선행연구를 통해 마련된 EA-INDEX를 관광단지의 사업 특성에 적합하게 신규 도출하였으며, 이를 통해 관광단지 개발사업의 환경영향을 크게 자연환경 보전, 자원 보존, 생활환경 보호 부문으로 구분하여 각 세부 지표별로 살펴보았다. 그 결과 지난 10년간 국내 관광단지 개발사업은 친환경성이 증가하는 방향으로 추진·개발된 것으로 나타났으며, 특히 자연환경 보전 부문에서 그 증가 추세가 뚜렷함이 확인되었다. 반면 자원 보존 부문의 경우 친환경성이 감소하는 것으로 확인되었으므로 추후 신규 개발계획 수립 시 이를 제고할 수 있는 노력하는 것이 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구는 비교적 장기간에 걸친 관광단지 개발사업에 대한 환경적 영향을 파악하고, 특히 개발사업의 친환경성에 대해 각 세부 부문별 영향을 정량적으로 분석한 것에 의의가 있는 것으로 판단된다. 추후 개발사업과 관련한 정책 이벤트, 연관 사회적 이슈 등의 정보를 종합한 분석이 이뤄진다면, EA-INDEX를 활용한 개발사업의 경향 파악에 더욱 폭넓은 해설이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

다자개발은행들은 기후변화 대응에 적극적으로 동참하고 있으며, 기존 환경·사회 영향평가에서 한발자국 더 나아가 저탄소 기후금융(Climate Finance) 제공을 위한 공동의 기후금융 평가방안(Common Principles for Climate Finance Tracking)을 마련하여 운용하고 있다. 이들은 보수적인 시각에서 전체 사업 중 기후변화 적응 또는 저감으로 인정할 수 있는 부분을 단위화하여 평가하고 있으며, 그 결과를 취합하여 2012년부터 2021년도까지 총 10회에 걸쳐 기후금융 보고서를 발간하였다. 기후금융으로 판단하는 방법은 저감인지 적응인지에 따라서 다소 상이하다. 기후변화 적응 금융의 경우에는 사업의 맥락, 전후사정을 살펴 적응 금융으로 산정하며, 저감 금융의 경우에는 적용이 가능한 사업에 대한 포괄적인 리스트가 마련되어 이에 해당하는 경우 저감 금융으로 인정한다. 다자개발은행은 기후금융 평가 내용을 환경·사회 영향평가 결과와 함께 사업 심사의 주요 항목으로 활용하고 있다. 세계 각국이 사업 수준에서 기후변화를 다루기 위한 다양한 노력을 기울이고 있는 상황에서, 다자개발은행이 사업 승인 시 기후변화를 어떻게 고려하고 있는지 살펴보고 그 시사점에 대해서 고찰해 보는 것은 향후 기후변화 대응 방법론 마련 및 관련한 환경·사회 영향평가의 역할 확대에 도움이 될 것이라고 생각한다.

Stroke is the leading cause of adult disability and the third leading cause of adult death in the world. Stroke has an impact on the physical, psychological and social dimensions of quality of life. An increasing number of authors have reported a deterioration of the quality of life in a large proportion of patients after a stroke. Just as satisfaction with each dimension varies to everyone, the importance of each dimension also varies and does not impact equally on the quality of life. So assessment on the quality of life has to adopt a multidimentional approach and to make use of the subjective and objective indicators.
