The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of digital literacy, perceived usefulness, and perceived ease of use on Internet users' online purchase intention in Palestine, as well to examine the moderating effect of Internet users' socioeconomic characteristics - age and gender on the relationships between digital literacy and online purchase intention. An extended technology acceptance model (TAM) by including digital literacy was applied in this research. The study applied a quantitative method, where 400 respondents participated in a questionnaire. The collected data was tested against the research framework using the partial least squares (SEM-PLS) method. The findings indicate that digital literacy has a significant effect on perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and online purchase intention; there is a significant effect of perceived usefulness on online purchase intention, but not perceived ease of use. On the other hand, socioeconomic variables demonstrate that neither age nor gender moderates the relationship between digital literacy and online purchase intention; in short, age and gender do not condition the intention of the Internet user.

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to identify workload measurement indicators for school nurses in order to provide high-quality health care and deploy school nurses effectively. Methods: A second Delphi survey was conducted on 21 experts with more than 5 years of school nurses experience. To develop indicators related to the workload of school nurses, the importance and measurability of a total of 21 workload indicators were investigated, including school nurses characteristics, school characteristics, health needs of students, and socioeconomic determinants. Results: As a result of the Delphi survey, it was found that 6 indicators were suitable in terms of importance and 8 indicators in terms of measurability. The important indicators the panel agreed on include the size of the city where the school is located, the total number of students, the number of classes, the percentage of students with chronic illness, the percentage of students visiting the health office per day, and the percentage of wound care in the health office per day. Conclusion: The percentage of students with chronic illness and the percentage of wound care per day need to be reflected in school nurse workload indicators and follow-up studies are required to shed more light on the socioeconomic determinants of schools.

This study was conducted to evaluate the satisfaction level of interns and residents on training and job environment of two university hospitals in Pusan. The concept of subject's satisfaction was evaluated in general characteristics, socioeconomic status, working condition, human relationship, and job status and scored from 1 to 5. The newly developed questionnaire for this study(32 items) was revised and modified by the preliminary survey. The internal consistency of questionnaire was 0.73(Cronbach's alpha). The self-administered questionnaire was provided to 218 subjects and collected the answering from March 2 to March 25th, 1997, and statistical significances were tested by $x^2-test$, t-test and ANOVA. The satisfaction level between the residents group was significantly different, but satisfaction level of working condition, human relationship and job status showed no difference. The service division part showed highest(2.73) and the surgical division part showed lowest(2.57). The job satisfaction level between the subjects showed higher satisfaction level in working condition, socioeconomic status, and total satisfaction dimension, and intern group showed higher satisfaction level than resident group. Satisfaction level in human relationship dimension, resident group showed higher satisfaction level than intern group, but showed no statistically difference. To improve the working condition for residents, public welfare facilities was firstly suggested and the next was salary increase, overloaded work, respectively. For intern groups, overloaded work and waste work were firstly suggested and the next was public welfare facilities and salary increase, sequentially. The career gets longer, the satisfaction level on general characteristics of working condition, socioeconomic status, and total satisfaction level were increased. The subjects who have religion and higher socioeconomic status showed higher satisfaction level than the other group. The general satisfaction level of subjects in all dimensions showed lower aver age(3.0) and the overall satisfaction level showed below than average. Thus, in order to improvement of subject's working condition, higher quality of life is necessary rather than economic state. In future, these results might be considered to improve the working condition for interns and residents.

Objective : This study compared the psychological stresses of depressed patients' families with those of schizophrenic patients' families. We investigated the influence of depressive patients' clinical features and their families' demographic characteristics on the families' depressive symptoms and stresses. Methods : Participants were 23 family members of depressed patients and 20 family members of schizophrenic patients. We measured the patients' clinical features (duration of illness, number of previous hospitalizations, and satisfaction with medication), and each family member's socioeconomic status and psychological characteristics (depressive mood, anxiety, family stress, and stress response), analyzing the data via independent t-test, chi-square test, and correlation and hierarchical multiple regression analyses. Results : The depressed patients' average clinical global impression (CGI) was significantly higher than that of the schizophrenic patients. The depressed patients' family members showed stress responses significantly higher than those of schizophrenic patients' family members. Furthermore, in depressed patients, frequency of hospitalization was positively correlated with family members' stat anxiety. For both patient types, family stress was positively correlated with the patient's severity of illness and the family's state anxiety, trait anxiety, and stress response ; socioeconomic status was positively correlated with the family's depressive symptoms ; the family's state anxiety positively correlated with the family's trait anxiety and stress response ; and the family's trait anxiety positively correlated with the family's stress response. Socioeconomic status predicted the family's depressive symptoms, and socioeconomic, illness severity and stress response predicted family stress. Conclusion : These findings suggest that both depressed patients' families and schizophrenic patients' families suffer from psychological stress. The study data also have important clinical implications, in that families of depressed patients need psychiatric intervention, as well as the patients themselves. In particular, family intervention should focus on psycho-education and stress coping strategies.

본 연구의 목적은 경로당 이용경험(이용중, 이용 중단, 이용경험 없음)에 따른 노인들의 특성을 조사하고 그 결과를 바탕으로 경로당의 발전 방안을 모색하는 데 있다. 전국에 거주하는 65세 이상 재가노인을 대상으로 한국보건사회연구원과 보건복지부가 공동으로 실시한 2004년도 전국 노인생활실태 및 복지욕구조사 결과 수집된 자료를 카이검정, 분산분석, 다항로지스틱회귀분석을 이용하여 분석하였다(n=3,005). 연구 결과 사회경제적 여건이 좋지 않은 농어촌지역의 고령노인이 주로 경로당을 이용하였고, 비교적 젊고 사회경제적으로 안정된 도시지역의 중산노년층이 경로당을 이용하다가 중단하거나 경로당을 이용하지 않는 것으로 나타나 경로당 이용경험에 따른 노인간 연령, 거주지역, 사회경제적 여건에서 확연한 차이가 있었다. 남녀노인간 차이는 있지만, 경로당 이용을 중단하거나 이용하지 않는 가장 큰 이유는 '경로당을 이용하는 노인들과 맞지 않아서'였다 즉, 노인들간 인구 및 사회경제적 차이 때문에 발생하는 교류상의 문제와 그로 인한 경로당 이용노인 모두의 여가복지욕구를 만족시킬 수 있는 프로그램의 제공이 현재 우리나라 경로당 운영에서 가장 시급히 해결해야 할 과제였다. 연구 결과를 바탕으로 경로당에만 한정하는 협의적 차원의 경로당 발전 방안(보건, 재활 및 건강 관련 프로그램의 활성화, 여성노인의 여가복지욕구를 반영한 프로그램의 운영, 보육시설의 운영 등)과 중장기적이고 종합적인 노인여가복지정책 수립을 위한 광의적 차원에서의 경로당 발전 방안(정부가 추진하고 있는 저출산 및 고령화정책의 인프라를 위한 복지시설로의 경로당 기능전환, 노인복지관과 유료노인여가복지시설의 활성화 등)이 제시되었다.

높은 수준의 TOD(대중교통 지향형 도시개발 : Transit Oriented Development)계획요소는 도시민의 대중교통 이용수요를 상승시키고 이는 지역의 보행환경을 개선하는 결과를 가져올 수 있다. 일반적으로 TOD 계획요소는 역세권 주변의 토지이용에 대한 다양성과 대중교통의 접근성, 그외 도시디자인 측면에서 평가되어 왔다. 특히 지하철역을 중심으로 하는 역세권 개발의 특성상 TOD 계획요소의 공간특성은 주변지역의 범위설정에 의존적일 가능성이 존재한다. 또한 물리적 TOD계획요소 이외에 지역의 사회경제적 특성 또한 대중교통의 수요에 큰 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 따라서 TOD에 관한 연구 시 권역설정에 따른 계획요소의 공간특성 변화와 해당지역의 사회경제적 특성을 주목할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 부산시 지하철 역 주변을 대상으로 상이한 공간단위별로 도출된 TOD 계획 수준의 변화를 분석하였다. 또한 지하철 이용객 수와의 다중회귀분석을 통해 효과적인 TOD계획요소의 분석 공간단위를 탐색하였다. 이와 병행하여 사회경제적 요소를 추가적으로 적용한 다중 회귀모형과의 비교분석을 수행하여 TOD계획지표 이외에 사회경제적 변수의 적용 가능성을 검토하였다. 분석결과 공간단위의 설정에 따라 TOD계획지표의 공간분포에 변동성을 발견하였고 연구지역에서 효과적으로 적용 가능한 특정 공간단위를 도출하였다. 또한 물리적 TOD계획요소 이외에 추가적으로 사회경제적 변수를 적용한 다중 회귀모형이 보다 개선된 추론결과를 도출하였다.

Objectives: Identify the characteristics related to the suicide rates in rural and urban areas of Korea and discover the factors that influence the suicide rate of the rural and urban areas. Methods: Using the data on causes of death from 2006 to 2008, the suicide rates were calculated and compared after age-standardization based on gender, age group and urbanicity. And, in order to understand the factors that influence suicide rate, total 10 local characteristics in four domains - public service, social integration, residential environment, and economic status - were selected for multiple regression analysis. Results: The suicide rates were higher in men than women, in rural areas than urban, and in older people than the younger. Generally, although there were variations according to age group and urbanicity, suicide rates were significantly related to residential environment and regional economic status but not related to regional welfare spending and social integration. In addition, the population over the age of 65 years, only regional economic status has significantly influence on their suicide rates. Conclusions: The influence of characteristics of regions on suicide rate is various by age-group, gender, and urbanicity. Therefore, in order to lower suicide rate and reduce the gap between regions, various approaches must be adopted by taking into account the socioeconomic characteristics of the regions.

Objectives As public concern on possible harmful effects of mobile phone in children has been raised, information of epidemiological characteristics of mobile phone use in children and adolescents will be essential for public health policy. Methods Using three databases (n=21,693) collected from 2008 to 2011, we examined characteristics of mobile phone ownership and use, and socioeconomic positions (SEP) in Korean children and adolescents. Results The ownership rate and the amount of mobile phone use were higher in females than males, in higher school grades than lower grades, and at 2011 than 2008. The average age of first mobile phone ownership was shown to decrease from 12.5 years in currently high school students to 8.4 years in currently elementary school students at 2011. More than 90% of children in the 5th grade owned a mobile phone. More children owned a mobile phone in lower SEP communities than in higher SEP. Children with parents educated less than those with parents educated more were more likely to own and use mobile phone. Conclusions Considering the epidemiological characteristics of mobile phone use, precautionary measures to prevent unnecessary exposure to mobile phones are needed in children and adolescents.
