Specially military try to protect occurrence of victims that is public service through various rules and management plan but victims is going on happen. It means importance of grasp not only current mobbing victims but also potential mobbing victims better than preparation of various rules and management plans. Therefore this paper extracts seven factors and fifty attributes that are related to this matter mobbing. Next, by using Gunwoo's Social Network Service that is made for oneself and expressing extracting factors as '1' if they are related me or not '0'. And apply similarity function(Dice's coefficient) to attributes summation included in factors to calculate similarity between the users. Third, calculate optimizing weight choosing factors included attributes by applying neural network algorithm of SPSS Clementine and propose Mobbing Value(MV) Algorithm through this total summation.

The purpose of this article is to study the negative factors reflected in the will and the factors of well aging as an alternative. The survey data was 36 wills published in the media such as newspapers and broadcasting between 2008 and 2020. As a result, various aspects of negative factors were found in youth wills between the ages of 13 and 34. In middle-aged wills between the ages of 35 and 49, female was not found. The negative factors in the socio-economic aspects were remarkable in the wills of adulthood between the ages of 50 and 64. All the writers of wills over the age of 65 were women, and their writings were strongly linked to the spiritual side. In view of these results, the will explored in this study can paradoxically become a proposal for a complete life. The will is a record with the potential of well aging.

As for the social support according to the general characteristics, there was statistically significant difference in sex distinction, religion, living arrangement, educational level, monthly allowance and mode to use spare time.

The data were analyzed using the IBM SPSS WIN 22.0 program in order to analyze the demographic, health, and mental characteristics of the subjects in 2009 and 2017. It was analyzed using logistic regression analysis. As a result of the study, the factors related to suicidal thinking in cancer patients were activity restriction and experience of depression in 2009(Negelkerke R²=.384), and age, marital status, activity restriction, and experience of depression in 2017(Negelkerke R²=.525). This study is meaningful in that the factors related to suicidal thoughts in cancer patients were identified according to the lapse of time, and the changes in the related factors were confirmed.
