  • 본 연구는 시각장애인의 감성적 특성을 밝혀 향후 웹 접근성 지침에 반영하기 위해 진행된 기초연구로, 통일한 청각적 자극에 대한 시각장애인과 일반인의 감성 반응을 비교하고 그 차이점을 알아보고자 진행되었다. 이러한 목적을 위하여 본 연구에서는 음악(Representation Sound)과 음향효과(Abstraction Sound)를 이용한 15개의 청각 자극과 긍정 및 부정 감성어휘를 이용한 11개의 감성평가 척도를 선정하여 웹 설문 시스템을 제작하였으며, 이를 활용하여 31명의 시각장애인과 53명의 일반인을 대상으로 준비된 청각 자극에 대한 감성 반응을 측정하였다. 예외적인 경우가 있기는 하지만 설문의 결과는 대부분의 경우에서 두 집단 간의 감성반응패턴이 일치하는 것으로 나타나, 장애인의 감성욕구가 일반인과 크게 다르지 않음을 보여주고 있다. 이러한 결과는 디자인에서 사용자의 감성을 중요시 하는 것과 마찬가지로 웹 접근성에 대한 연구에서 장애인의 감성적 욕구가 중요시 되어야 함을 보여주고 있는 것이다.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of computer pointing game on the visual perception ability of children with severe intellectual disability. Based on a literature review, we developed a computer pointing game to improve visual perception ability, which consisted of three stages; catching a hamburger, catching a hamburger and a soda, and catching various foods. At each stage, different instructional models were applied by difficulty level of the contents. Experiments were performed among four children with severe intellectual disabilities for three weeks. They belonged to H public school in Kyeonggi, Korea. Their visual perceptions were quantitatively measured four times by utilizing the Korean Developmental Test of Visual Perception tool (K-DTVP-2). For qualitative evaluation, an observation assessment diary was written and analyzed. All four children at the fourth test showed better visual perception ability, compared with the ability at the first test. As a result of the analysis of the observation assessment, they were considered successful in their learning and ordinary life related to visual perception. It can be concluded that the computer pointing game may play a role in helping children with severe intellectual disabilities improve their visual perception ability.

  • 본 연구에서는 융합적 장애학의 시각에 근거해 중도 시각장애인의 장애 자부심 구축에 관해 일본 TV드라마 "챌린지드"를 중심으로 주인공 塙와 주변 인물로 나누어 그들의 장애관의 실체를 분석하였다. 이 경우, 연구방법 고론으로서 Priestley(1998)의 장애다중패러다임에 의거한 융합적 장애학을 도모하고자 하였다. 중도시각장애인의 장애자부심 구축과 장애 수용의 패러다임은 근본적으로 상이하다. 그런 면에서 장애수용 이론에 대한 비판은 의료모델에 대한 비판과 통한다. 드라마상에서 장애 자부심의 본질이 가장 두드러진 인물로는 주인공 塙와 교사회장, 교장으로 이들은 사회적 관념론이 체화된 인물로서의 공통점을 보인다. 그 외 인물들의 경우, 초기에는 시각장애교사인 塙의 신체성과 장애 정체성을 부정하지만 이윽고 장애에 대한 사회적 관념론적 시각으로 전화하게 되며, 드라마의 인물들은 완전히 융화된다. 마지막으로 본 연구의 시사점으로는 드라마 자체에 관한 인문학적 사회과학적 분석이라는 내재적 시사와 더불어 드라마를 수단으로 한 교육적 효과와 같은 외재적 시사로 제시하였다.

  • Objective: Several muscles surrounding neck are vital not only for neck motion, but for upper extremities motions as well. Neck pain would affect neck and shoulder disability. The Neck Disability Index (NDI), Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI), and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) are increasingly used to evaluate treatment effectiveness after chronic neck pain. The purpose of this study was to analyze the correlation of neck pain, shoulder pain, and quality of life in patients with chronic neck pain. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: Forty-three patients with neck pain participated in this study. Participants were instructed to place a mark on each item of three clinical measures that best represented their experience of his/her neck and shoulder problem over the last week. The outcome measures of the study were NDI, SPADI, and VAS for neck and shoulder pain and disability. Results: The NDI was significantly correlated with the VAS-Neck, SPADI-Pain, SPADI-Disability, SPADI-Total, and VAS-Shoulder (p<0.05). The VAS-Neck was significantly correlated with the VAS-Neck, SPADI-Pain, SPADI-Disability, SPADI-Total, and VAS-Shoulder (p<0.05). The SPADI-Total was significantly correlated with the NDI, VAS-Neck, SPADI-Pain, SPADI-Disability, and VAS-Shoulder (p<0.05). The SPADI-Pain was significantly correlated with the NDI, VAS-Neck, SPADI-Disability, SPADI-Total, and VAS-Shoulder (p<0.05). The SPADI-Disability was significantly correlated with the NDI, VAS-Neck, SPADI-Total, SPADI-Pain, and VAS-Shoulder (p<0.05). The VAS-Shoulder was significantly correlated with the NDI, VAS-Neck, SPADI-Pain, SPADI-Disability, and SPADI-Total (p<0.05). Conclusions: Neck disability in patients with chronic neck pain should be considered with disability and pain of the shoulder.

  • There has been growing attention on the well-being of people with disabilities. The purpose of this study was twofold: (1) to investigate the associations between individuals' socio-demographic and psychological characteristics and clothing expenditure, and (2) to examine the moderated mediation effect of self-efficacy and acceptance of disability on the association between dependency on others and happiness among people with visual impairment. This study was based on secondary analysis of data from the second wave of the 6th Panel Survey of Employment for the Disabled collected by the Employment Development Institute. The results of this study showed that average monthly expenditure on clothing was positively associated with self-efficacy, happiness, and acceptance of disability, while being negatively associated with dependency on others. The results also confirmed that self-efficacy mediated the association between dependency on others and happiness. A conditional direct effect of dependency on others on happiness was found, in which negative associations were significant among people with visual impairment who had low and mean levels of acceptance of disability (but not high levels). In addition, there was a significant conditional indirect effect, in which the indirect and negative effect of dependency on others on happiness via self-efficacy was significant for those with low and average levels of acceptance of disability. These findings support the importance of enhancing the independence and acceptance of disability among people with visual impairment, which ultimately contributes to their happiness.
