The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between climacteric symptoms and management of menopause of middle -aged women. The subjects of this study were 261 women(40 to 60 years old). Data were collected from Jun. 1 to Jul. 15, 2001 by a structured questionnaire. The instruments employed were : 1) The Climacteric Symptoms Scale developed by Aeri Song and Eun soon Chung(1998). 2) The Management of Menopause Scale developed by Aeri Song(1997). The data were analyzed by the SPSS p.c. program using t-test, ANOVA and Pearson correlation coefficient. The results of the study were as follows : 1. Mean score of climacteric symptoms was $2.18{\pm}0.39$(Maximum 4, Minimum 1). The mean scores among the categories of climacteric symptoms, in descending order, were : a) physical and physiological reactions ($2.62{\pm}0.53$), b) social and family relationships ($2.23{\pm}0.50$), c) psychiatric and psychological reactions ($2.08{\pm}0.49$), d) relationship with sexual partner($1.73{\pm}0.54$), e) genitourinary reactions ($1.72{\pm}0.55$). 2. Mean score of management of menopause was $1.79{\pm}0.45$ (Maximum 4, Minimum 1). The mean scores among the categories of management of menopause, in descending order, were : a) dietary management($2.57{\pm}0.52$), b) self control ($2.24{\pm}0.57$), c) management of exercise and physical activity($2.14{\pm}0.75$), d) management of sex life($1.71{\pm}0.47$), e) management of professional health maintenance($1.61{\pm}0.59$). 3. There were statistically significant differences in the score of middle-aged women's self reported climacteric symptoms according to : a) occupation (t=-2.79, p<0.001) b) marriage state (t=-2.29, p<0.05) c) age of menarche (F=4.66, p<0.001) d) method of Sanhujori (post natal care & treatment) (F=4.22, p<0.001) e) hormone replacement therapy (t=-3.09, p<0.05). From the above statistics, several significant findings were noted : a) There were more climacteric symptoms from those who were unemployed, those who had no partner or were divorced and those who started a menarche earlier. b) There were less climacteric symptoms reported from those on hormone replacement therapy and those who followed their parents or parents-in-law advice regarding Sanhujori (postnatal care) 4. There were statistically significant differences in the score of middle-aged women's self reported management of menopause according to : The educational background (F=7.63, p<0.001), religion (F=3.74, p<0.001), income (F=3.65, p<0.001), number of parity (F=4.87, p<0.001), method of Sanhujori(postnatal care) (F=5.73, p<0.001), period of Sanhujori (postnatal care) (F=2.81, p<0.05), hormone replacement therapy (t=3.81, p<0.001). Women with higher educational background, strong religion, higher income, large number of parity, managed their post natal care well, were on HRT, managed their menopause significantly better than the others who took part in the survey. 5. It will be noted from the above that women's degree of climacteric symptoms showed a negative correlation to the management of menopause(r=-0.2146, p<0.001). The findings shown above suggest the need to develop a variable management of menopause, in order to improve climacteric symptoms of middle-aged women. It is hoped that the above findings will stimulate more detailed research into this matter, and thereby enable guidance to be given to women going through the menopause to cope with it in a less stressful way.

Reumatic arthritis is a disease with joint pain being one of the key symptoms. The patient suffers from the pain, stiff sensation and edema due to the inflammation taking Place In one or more joints. Accompanying these problems are fatigue, unusual exhaustion, fever, tachycardia and weakness. Inaddition, joints are often deformed and muscles shrink along with the progress of edema, coupled with depression and psychological instability resulting from the loss of the mobile function and limitations on the daily life. Some patients become fed up with the long and hard flight with the disease and just give up, which aggravates the symptoms. Others come to the hospital only when the conditions have become serious. We need to prevent these and guide the patients in the right direction. Against this backdrop, this study aims to look into the relations between the knowledge on the part of the patients together with their feeling of self-efficacy and the compliance. The results are expected to help the patients improve their life, In addition to providing useful materials for setting up appropriate plan for nursing intervention. The study was conducted by distributing questionnaire to 88 patients selected from the out-patient department of a university hospital in Inchon, from April 6 to 27, 1998. The following tools were used the yardstick of self-efficacy, developed in 1997 by the Society for the Health of Rheumatism Patients, was used for measuring the levels of knowledge and the feeling of self-efficacy. The degree of compliance was measured by the data collected from documents in addition to the results of the analysis of the interviews with the patients. The reliability of the tools was confirmed. In the analysis, the general characteristics were expressed in figures and percentages. The levels of knowledge, feeling of self-efficacy, and compliance were expressed in the average values and standard deviations. The relations among the variables following the general characteristics were analysed by the t-test and one-way ANOVA. The Pearson correction coefficient was used for the analysis of factors. Multiple-loop analysis was used to identify the variables affecting the compliance. The following are the results of this study. 1. Among the 88 patients, 18 were men and the remaining 70 were women, with a ratio 1 : 3.87. Regarding the age groups, 23 were between 50 and 59 years old, with those between 50 and 69 accounting for 51.1% of the total. High school graduates or higher amounted to 58%. Religious patients was 67% or 59 persons. Fifty nine percent were unemployed, and 58.3% (49 persons) had two children or fewer. The period of suffering from rheumatism varied between 2 months and IS years, with 70% less than years. 2. The average figure In relation to the of knowledge was 17.63 points over 30 or 58. 76%, which means a medium level. 3. The average figure of the feeling of self-efficacy was 60.06 points. 4. The level of compliance was 3.26, which was above average. 5. The relation between the feeling of self-efficacy and compliance showed an "r" value of 0.37, which was significant. It means that the higher the feeling, the greater the compliance points. 6. The analysis of the knowledge level revealed that the difference is found only between the college graduates and junior-high graduates or lower. 7. The feeling of self-efficacy varied along with the age and education level. 8. The general characteristics of patients as discussed above did not show significant difference with the compliance. 9. Regarding the elements influencing the compliance, the number of children, period of suffering, income, age, feering of self-efficacy, knowledge, and compliance had 54% of significance. In conclusion, rheumatism victims can lead a better life if they are appropriately educated, based on efficient training program from the early days of the disease ; if they become able to manage themselves thanks to the training ; and if they are helped by a program focusing on the increase of the feeling of self-efficacy aimed at changing patient's behavior.

For the analysis of mortality differentials by socioeconomic factors based on death registration data, we have considered four variables : place of residence, educational attainment, marital status and occupation. The age range adopted were 5 to 64 years of age for place of residence, and 25 to 64 years of age for the other factors. The mortality differentials by socioeconomic variables were clear and in the expected direction: mortality levels among urban residents, better educated groups, and non- agricultural workers were lower than among the other sub- groups. The average mortality level in rural areas is much higher than in urban areas : the rural mortality levels were at least double the urban levels at ages below 40 years, but became smaller after age 40, and no clear differentials by urban I rural residence increased until 1974~76 for the both sexes, but since the then differentials have declined slowley for both sexes. This changing pattern of mortality differentials by place of residence can be explained by historical socioeconomic development : the development generally started in urban areas, and rural areas followed : in the course of socioeconomic development the differences between the death rates in the two areas became smaller and finally the mortality levels in the two areas became nearly the same, as is found in the developed countries nowadays. The inverse relationships between mortality and educational level became stronger between the periods 1970~72 and 1984~86, but showed the same atterns of mortality differentials in both period : larger differences among the younger age groups, and for males, than among the older age groups, and for females. The increasing mortality differentials in the fourteen-year period between 1970~72 and 1984~86 were caused by inadequate living standards of the non- educated, whose proportion in the total population, however, dropped sharply during that period. Also, the much lower proportions of low - educated groups or of persons with no formal education among males than females helped to establish the clearly pronounced differentials. The mortality differentials by marital status in Korea showed the usual pattern : the mortality rates of the married in each age and sex group were clearly lower than those of others during the fourteen-year period between 1970~72 and 1984~86. In Korean society which remotes universal marriage, the never married recorded especially high death rates, presumably mainly because of ill - health, but also possibly because of the stigma attached to celibacy. However, the mortality differentials by marital status changed with the changes in the proportionate distribution by marital status during the period : the differences between the death rates of the married and never married groups became smaller, the proportion of the never married group increased : in contrast, the differences between mortalities of the married and widowed / divorced / separated groups widened, with the decrease in the proportion of the later group ; this tendency was perticularly marked for females. Occupational groups also showed clear mortality differences : among four occupational groups mortality of males was highest among agricultural workers and lowest among 'professional, admi-nistrative and clerical workers, However, when the death rates were standardized by educational level, the death rates by occupation in age group 45~64 years were nearly the same (excet for the mixed group consisting of unemployed, students, military servicemen and unknown). Therefore, the clear mortality dfferentials by occupation in Korea resulted mainly from the differences in educational level between different occupation groups. Since socioeconomic characteristics are related to each other, the net effect of each variable was examined. Each of the three variables - ducational level, marital status and urban / rural residence affected significantly Korean adult mortality when the effects of the other variables were controlled. Among the three variables educational level was the most important factor for the determination of the adult mortality level. When male's occupation was added to the above three variables, the effects of occupation on adult mortality were notably smaller after control for the effects of the other three variables while the net effects of these three variables were nearly the same irrespectively whether occupation was included or not. Thus, the differences in educational level (mainly), place of residence and marital status bring out the clear differences in observed mortality levels by occupation.

1990년대 후반 경제위기를 경험하며, 우리나라에서 실업의 문제에 대한 사회적 관심과 더불어 실업자의 재취업 가능성에 대한 연구가 지속되고 있다. 재취업과 관련된 기존의 연구들은 인적자본이론을 토대로 연구를 진행해 왔는데, 본 연구는 기존의 연구와는 다르게 Sen에 의해 제시된 인간능력관점을 기초로 하면서 이러한 요인의 실업자 재취업에의 영향력을 인적자본론 요인과 비교론적 차원에서 분석을 시도해 보았다. 아울러, 본 연구는 인간능력관점에서 논하는 사회적 능력 요인 중 핵심적 요인으로 간주되는 성별 차이라는 요인에 주목하면서 성별에 따라 인적자본요인과 인간능력요인이 재취업에 어떠한 영향을 주는가를 비교 검토하였다. 본 연구는 한국노동패널 5차년도 자료 중 연구목적에 적합한 1,871사례를 대상으로 선정하여 재취업의 위험도를 콕스회귀분석을 통해 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 학력, 기술수준 적합도, 근속기간 등의 인적자본이론 요인들은 기대와는 다르게 재취업의 가능성에 부적인 영향을 갖는 것으로 나타난 반면, 기초교육능력, 의료보험가입과 사회보험수혜 및 수도권거주여부 등의 인간능력요인들은 기대한 바에 일치하며 재취업에 정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 성별에 따른 분석결과를 보면, 성별에 따라 각 요인들이 상이하게 재취업에 영향을 주는데 그러한 경향성이 인간능력요인에서 더욱 부각되는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 재취업에 있어서 인적자본관점에서 제시되는 요인들에 대한 고려도 중요하지만, 동시에 인간능력관점에서 강조하는 사회 제도적 요인이 역시 매우 중요한 역할을 할 수 있음을 시사해 준다. 그리고 성별에 따른 비교연구 결과는 재취업 현상에 대해서 인간능력관점과 더불어 성분절적 노동시장구조에 대한 관점과 함께 이에 대해서 다양한 접근이 필요함을 시사해 준다. 본 연구는 기존 연구에서 실증적으로는 주로 국가단위에서 분석되었던 인간능력관점을 개인단위차원에서 분석하면서 재취업에의 영향력을 다각적인 시각에서 검증하여 인간능력개발과 관련된 사회복지적 개입의 의미를 제고시킨다는 점에서 연구의 의의를 갖는다.

본 연구에서는 질병관리본부의 2017년 지역사회건강조사에 참여한 19세 이상의 한국 성인 228,310명을 대상으로, 식품의 충분한 공급과 다양성 확보를 기준으로 식품충분·다양군, 식품충분·비다양군, 식품불충분군으로 분류한 집단의 개인적 요인, 개인간 요인, 지역사회 요인에 차이가 있는지를 파악하고, 식품충분성 및 다양성과 관련된 개인간 요인과 지역사회 요인을 파악하고자 하였다. 본 연구의 대상자 중 식품충분·다양군은 65.3%, 식품충분·비다양군은 31.5%, 식품불충분군은 3.2%이었다. 식품충분·비다양군과 식품불충분군은 식품충분·다양군에 비해 여성, 65세 이상, 중졸 이하, 가구의 월평균 소득이 200만원 미만, 직업이 없거나 배우자 없는 경우, 소규모 지역 거주 등의 특성을 나타냈으며, 모든 건강행동과 건강상태에서 집단별 분포에 유의적인 차이가 있었다. 건강행동 중 금연, 규칙적 운동, 적절한 수면 실천 비율은 식품충분·다양군이 가장 높았으나, 금주와 규칙적 아침식사 실천 비율은 식품불충분군이 가장 높았다. 고혈압, 당뇨, 이상지질혈증 및 관절염 비율은 식품충분·다양군에 비해 식품충분·비다양군과 식품불충분군이 높게 나타났으나, 과체중 이상은 식품 충분·다양군이 가장 높은 결과를 보였다. 또한 식품충분·비다양군은 규칙적인 아침식사를 제외한 모든 요인에서 식품 충분·다양군과 차이가 있었으며, 대중교통과 의료서비스를 제외한 모든 요인에서 식품불충분군과 차이가 있었다. 식품충분성 및 다양성과 관련된 개인간 요인과 지역사회 요인을 파악하기 위해 사회인구학적 요인, 개인간 요인, 지역사회 요인을 모두 고려하여 다변량로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시한 결과 식품충분·다양군에 비해 식품충분·비다양군과 식품불충분군에서는 사회적 연결망이 미흡하고, 사회적 활동이 활발하지 않았으며, 안전한 환경, 생활환경, 의료서비스 등에 대하여 불만족하였다. 본 연구에서는 지역사회건강조사 또는 국민건강영양조사에서 식품안정군으로 분류되지만 다양성을 확보하지 못한 군을 분류하여 분석하였고, 그 결과 식품충분·비다양군은 식품불충분군 뿐 아니라 식품충분·다양군과도 개인적 요인, 개인간 요인, 지역사회 요인에서 유의적인 차이가 있었다. 이와 같이 사회인구학적 특성, 건강 행동, 건강상태 등의 개인적 요인과 사회적 연결망, 사회적 활동 등의 개인간 요인, 그리고 지역사회 환경 등이 식품충분성 및 다양성과 관련된 요인으로 규명되어, 식품불안정과 관련된 문제를 해결하기 위해서는 식품의 다양한 공급을 고려한 식품지원 정책과 더불어 사회적 연결망과 사회적 활동을 촉진시킬 수 있는 다양한 영양교육 프로그램 개발 등이 지역사회의 환경 개선 정책과 함께 이루어져야 할 것으로 생각된다.
