  • 과거에는 대기오염, 수질오염, 폐기물 등이 환경영향평가에서 주요한 평가항목이었는데 최근에는 토지환경(토지이용, 지형), 자연생태환경(동·식물상, 자연환경자산), 사회·경제 환경 등이 주요한 평가항목으로 다뤄지고 있다. 2012년 이후 전략환경영향평가와 소규모환경영향평가의 협의결과를 보면, 90 %이상이 조건부동의였다. 그러나 환경영향평가의 협의결과는 2012년~2016년 기간 거의 대부분(94.1 %) 동의였으나, 환경정책기조가 바뀌는 2017년 이후부터 대부분(87.4 %) 조건부동의로 결정되었다. 그리고 세 종류 환경영향평가의 부동의 비율이 2013년~2016년 기간 0.3~0.6 % 밖에 되지 않았는데, 2017년~2019년 기간 1.3~3.1 %로 급증하였다. 그 사이 협의 결과에 영향을 미칠만한 제도나 분석기법의 변화가 없었다면, 협의결과의 일관성 및 공정성의 결여가 문제로 제기될 수 있다. 따라서 환경영향평가에서 입지타당성을 결정하는 토지이용, 동·식물상 및 자연환경자산, 사회·경제 등의 평가항목에 대한 지표개발과 적용에 대한 연구가 요구되고 있다. 본 연구는 환경영향평가가 전략환경영향평가, 환경영향평가, 소규모환경영향평가로 구분되어 시행되는 2012년 이후 동의, 조건부동의, 부동의 협의결과를 분석한다. 부동의 사례에 대해 6개 환경분야 중 입지타당성분석에서 중요한 토지환경과 자연생태환경의 평가항목을 중심으로 근거요인을 분석하고, 환경관련 토지이용규제와 환경관련 등급을 중심으로 개발계획이나 개발사업에 대한 환경영향평가에서 협의 결정의 개선방안을 모색한다.

  • Background: Breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer in women worldwide and its frequency is increasing gradually in many countries. Over the last three decades an increase in the breast cancer has been witnessed in the earlier low-risk Asian countries including Pakistan. Purpose: The objective of the current study was to assess the prevalence of known risk factors like early menarche, late menopause, socio economic, reproductive and demographic factors, among women diagnosed with breast cancer at INMOL hospital, Lahore, Punjab, as little information exists in this regard. Materials and Methods: A survey study was conducted on 200 women diagnosed with breast cancer who were seen at Institute of Nuclear Medicine and Oncology (INMOL) hospital, Lahore. A structured questionnaire was administered to these patients regarding the known risk factors through face to face interviews after obtaining appropriate consent. Results: Regarding non-modifiable risk factors, our study showed that majority of the breast cancer patients were diagnosed at 35-45 years (32.5%) or at older age (${\leq}46$) and experienced menarche at 12 years or older (66 %). Likewise, a large number of patients reached menopause at the age of 45 years (60%), had no family and personal history of breast cancer (80%) and hence fell in a low risk category. Regarding modifiable risk factors in women diagnosed with breast cancer, most of the patients fell in low risk strata as the majority were married (98%) at young age, breastfed their children for 12 months or more (88%) and bore two to three children (80%). Considering income criteria, the majority of the patients had a low risk profile as they belonged to middle class (70%), urban area (60%) and were house wives (80%). However, it was noted that a considerable number of women (34%) diagnosed with breast cancer experienced menarche at an early age (<12) and reached menopause after the age of 45 years. This situation is further augmented by environmental changes and dietary habits and places them in a high risk category.

  • The purposes of the study are (1) to explore relationships amongst attitudes to positive/negative tourism impacts, community satisfaction, government trust, and support for tourism development and (2) to provide practical implications for policy makers how they can gain residents' support by increasing community satisfaction and government trust, which are resulted from attitudes to tourism impacts. A questionnaire is self-administered to local residents using a systematic sampling method in Ninh Hai Commune, Hoa Lu District, Ninh Binh Province, Vietnam. The results indicate community satisfaction and government trust are core factors of support for tourism development. The study highlights that to attain community satisfaction and government trust, the policy makers should especially increase positive socio-cultural and environmental impacts and minimize negative economic impacts on the community simultaneously.

  • Along with recent changes in the nature of disease, social and environmental conditions and medical care practices, we are faced with a new set of problems for the field of public health. It represents a corresponding increase in importance of the chronic and degenerative diseases. Therefore, it is realized that socio-cultural factors are much more important for these diseases in treatment and prevention. These trends require a real challenge to traditional forms of public health activities in Korea. This paper emphasizes the role of health education in dealing with all aspects of newly appeared health problems on the present stage. It also discusses a brief summary of some of the major trends in the field of health and medical care that have particular behavioral and sociological relevance.

  • This study used the contingent valuation method to determine how much consumers would be willing to pay to improve their city-gas safety and what factors influence consumers' willingness-to-pay (WTP). To elicit this information a mail questionnaire was sent to a randomly selected sample of 2,400 residents who use the city-gas. The survey results showed that individuals were willing to pay $4,750{\pm}342.8$ won per month for the city-gas safety improvement. The aggregate annual WTP was estimated at 121.5~318.0 billion won. To better understand how individual's socio/demographic characteristics affect the WTP, Censored Tobit analysis was used. The results show that higher income, more gas use (cooking and heating), willingness to install a safety instrument significantly increase consumer's WTP.

  • Little research has been done regarding the explicit and objective analysis and explanation of the spatial logic of traditional Korean settlement patterns, in spite of many archeological and socio-historical studies. In this paper we present research into spatial mechanisms and their social meanings in three traditional villages in the southern province of Korea. Conventional space-syntax analysis of spatial configuration has been used to analysis and investigate the morphological forms and functions of the traditional villages. The research results show that the traditional Korean villages are spatially deeper and syntactically less connected than other comparable urban forms, such as old European cities. Configurational analysis of the three villages reveals that their spatial structures are configured to have their own spatial logic, not a geometric order but a spatial structure. What is however noteworthy is the way they embrace their own environmental context and factors and implement them into the process of urban growth or spatial construction.

  • Introduction: Upper aero-digestive tract cancer is a multidimensional problem, international trends showing complex rises and falls in incidence and mortality across the globe, with variation across different cultural and socio-economic groups. This paper seeks some explanations and identifies some research and policy needs. Methodological Approach: The literature illustrates the multifactorial nature of carcinogenesis. At the cellular level, it is viewed as a multistep process involving multiple mutations and selection for cells with progressively increasing capacity for proliferation, survival, invasion, and metastasis. Established and emerging risk factors, in addition to changes in incidence and prevalence of cancers of the upper aero-digestive tract, were identified. Risk Factors: Exposure to tobacco and alcohol, as well as diets inadequate in fresh fruits and vegetables, remain the major risk factors, with persistent infection by particular so-called "high risk" genotypes of human papillomavirus increasingly recognised as also playing an important role in a subset of cases, particularly for the oropharynx. Chronic trauma to oral mucosa from poor restorations and prostheses, in addition to poor oral hygiene with a consequent heavy microbial load in the mouth, are also emerging as significant risk factors. Conclusions: Understanding and quantifying the impact of individual risk factors for these cancers is vital for health decision-making, planning and prevention. National policies and programmes should be designed and implemented to control exposure to environmental risks, by legislation if necessary, and to raise awareness so that people are provided with the information and support they need to adopt healthy lifestyles.

  • The socio-psychiatric study and personality analysis by Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory on attempted suicides with drug intoxication in Seonsan-Gun and Cheongdo-Gun of Kyoungsang buk-Do was attempted to identify overall picture of attempted suicides and to detect some characteristics of personality. The total of 93 suicide attempted cases which were brought to the local clinics for the past 3 years from February, 1981 to February,1984 were sampled among them. The socio-psychiatric study and MMPI were performed with 45 attempters possible to be interviewed. The personalities of a group which answered "Still have the desire occasionally" or "Don't know about the present attitude toward suicide was compared with those of the other group who answered "Will not do it agagin". The results were as follows; 1) The sex ratio of the total attempters (93 cases) were 138.5. The highest rate by age group was found in the 3rd decade to be 27 cases. On the other hand, the sex ratio of interviewed cases were 136.8 and the highest rate was found in the age group of 50-59. 2) For the common characteristics of majority other than sex, 55.7% of cases were graduated primary school, and 62.2% were engaged in agriculture. 3) Except the fact that more of the attempted suicides happened during summer, there were no seasonal variation among other seasons. 4) The places selected for the attempted suicides were the houses in majority of cases (98%). Most of cases (53.3%) were found immediately after the attempt and 24.4% within one hour. For the poison taken, 86.7 took a sort of herbicides or insecticides, 55.6% were admitted to local clinics for only one day and 20% for two days. 5) The most common precipitating factors of the attempted suicides were family trouble and financial poverty. 6) The psychodynamic motives of the attempters were impulsive hostility(35.6%), abandonment(33.3%), guilt feeling (11.1%), manipulation and attention seeking (8.9%) and others. 7) In regard to their present attitude toward suicide, 29 cases (64.4%) expressed that they would never do such an act again, 37.8% of cases expressed that they really wanted to die at the time when they attempted. 8) The Psychopathic deviate, Paranoia, Depression, Schizophrenia scores were significantly higher in the attempters group who answered "Don't know" or "Possibly" for the question of "Will you attempt suicide again?" Than the group who answered" will not do it again".

  • 본 연구는 지난 10년(1995-2005년)동안 급증하고 있는 1인가구의 인구 경제 사회학적 특성에 따른 성장패턴을 기술하고, 1인가구의 다양한 특성에 따른 공간분포 특성을 분석하는데 목적을 두었다. 1인가구의 증가는 젊은 층의 결혼 지연과 독신, 중년층의 이혼율 증가와 노령화에 따른 독거노인의 증가가 복합적으로 작용하였다. 1인가구의 성별, 연령별, 혼인상태별, 교육수준에 따라 상당히 차별적인 1인가구의 성장 패턴을 보이고 있다. 1인가구의 연령, 학력, 주택소유 및 주택유형을 기준으로 하여 이들의 공간분포 패턴을 비교해보면 매우 대조적이고 불균등하게 나타나고 있다. 교육수준이 높고 자가 아파트에 거주하는 젊은 싱글족은 소수의 대도시에 집중해있는 반면에 교육수준이 낮고 단독주택을 소유하고 있는 독거노인들은 주로 농촌에 거주하고 있다. 또한 고학력의 젊은 연령층의 경우 경제적 상황에 따른 양극화 현상이 두드러지게 나타나고 있다. 특히 광역시나 대도시에는 아파트를 소유하면서 경제적으로 여유있는 삶을 살고 있는 그룹과 월세로 단독주택에 거주하는 그룹이 혼재되어 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같이 1인가구들도 상당히 이질적인 특성을 갖고 있기 때문에 어떤 그룹에 속하고 있는 1인가구가 증가하고 있으며, 또 집중분포되어 있는가에 따라서 해당 지자체가 직면하게 되는 경제 사회적 문제는 상당히 다를 것이며, 이에 따른 사회복지정책도 차별화되어야 할 것이다.
