  • Purpose: The objective of this study were to examine the determinants of self-rated health, specially focused on the effect of functional capacity of community dwelling sedentary older adults on self-rated health. Method: The data has been collected from 654 community-dwelling sedentary older adults (mean age: 75 years) during the period from April to June in 2007. The data were collected by the in-person interview and direct measurement of functional capacity. The data were analyzed using chi-square test and multiple regression analysis with the SPSS 9.1 program. Result: The elderly rated their health as very good (3%), good (28%), fair (38%), poor (29%0, and very poor (2%). The higher average daily walk minutes ($\beta$=0.12, p<.01), number of chair stand ($\beta$=0.10, p<.05), scores of self-efficacy ($\beta$=0.16, p<.001) and the lower number of disease ($\beta$=-0.44, p<.001) show better self-rated health. Conclusion: Self-rated health is the most commonly used indicators in social epidemiology and geriatric research because it has been known as the good predictor of mortality and reflects health related disability. The finding suggested that daily walking habits, lower body strength, physical self-efficacy should be considered to improve the senior's self-perception of health. The community-based intervention associate increase these factors should be considered.

  • The impaired person and the elderly who has hearing loss have been continuously increased and these people's desire for participating society as a producer has been increased also. So they strongly request the aid device which can compensate their handicap. The healing aid telephone is one of the basic aid devices that helps the hearing impaired to communicate with other people and to acquire useful information. We design the new model of the hearing aid telephone and test it's efficiency in three fields - electrical, speech perception, user test. From the result of the test we certify that the new model is better for the hearing impaired to understand the meaning of telephone speech than the old general models. We expect that the advanced healing aid telephone can be developed by the research about speech perception characteristics of the hearing impaired in engineering and clinical side.

  • Purpose: This study was done to develop and test a scale to measure the homeboundness for low-income aged who live in the community. Methods: This was nursing methodology research. Homeboundness Scale development process was composed of construct identification based on concept analysis using the Hybrid model, 35 initial items. This number was reduced to 31 items through face validity tests by 7 experts. The preliminary Homeboundness Scale for low-income aged was administered to 240 aged who registered and received visiting health care service in the community health center located in S city. Data were analyzed using item analysis, factor analysis, Pearson correlation coefficients, and Cronbach's alpha. Results: Twenty-two items were selected for the final scale. Three factors evolved from the factor analysis, which explained 66.0% of the total variance. The internal consistency, Cronbach's alpha, was .945 and reliability of the subscales ranged from .890 to .934. Conclusion: Homeboundness Scale demonstrated acceptable validity and reliability. It can be used to assess the Homeboundness of the low-income aged in practice and research.

  • The purpose of the study was to test the reliability and validity of the Korean version of Task Self-Efficacy Scale for activities of dally living (ADL). The Task Self-Efficacy Scale was developed by Roberts(1996) for low-intensity exercise study with older people to predict their performance of ADL. The scale was translated and back translated by bilingual persons, and then was modified to resolve variations in the translations. The Korean version of Self-Efficacy Scale for ADL was then administered to 193 elderly people including 95 hospitalized patients and 98 outpatients or healthy people. Face to face interview was used to fill out the structured questionnaire, and each interview took approximately 30 minutes. The subjects for the study were 80 women and 112 men with an age range of 65 to 95 years(M=71 years) of whom 82.6% classified themselves as moderate or quite active Most subjects(80.2%) had an education level of elementary school or less. The Self-Efficacy Scale for ADL is measured on a 0 to 10 VAS, assessing three areas of ADL : self care activities, household tasks, and motor tasks. The higher the score is, the higher person's confidence in performing ADL. Psychometric testing revealed that the scale was found to be internally consistent, showing a Cronbach's alpha of .97 The scale was significantly correlated with subjects' level of activity and subjective assessment of their health status. Moderate correlation with health-related hardiness scale also supported the validity. Factor analysis was performed to confirm whether the scale represents the three sub-areas as suggested in the literature. The results of the factor analysis led to a three factor solution according to Kaiser's criterion, but the items were not strongly and cleanly loaded for the third factor. This can be explained in that, among the three sub-ADL areas of the self-efficacy scale, the areas of self care activities and household tasks seem to have similar levels of difficulty in performance with not enough differences for the self-efficacy scale to distinguish between the two areas. Therefore, one factor solution was suggested since ADL can be seen as a unit of activities at similar level of difficulty in performance. One factor solution explained 68.1% of variance of the 19-item scale and all items were correlated over .6 with the factor, showing that the selected factor solution fits the model. The results indicated that the Korean version of Task Self-Efficacy Scale for ADL was reliable and valid in producing useful information to evaluate the effects of various interventions toward promoting health and quality of life for elderly people.

  • 고령화시대의 진전과 함께 노령화, 노인, 노후 등에 대한 많은 연구들이 쏟아져 나오고 있으나, 장애인의 그것에 대한 연구는 부진한 형편이다. 장애인들 또한 불가역적인 노화는 필연적인 경험이 되며, 장애와 노화의 중첩에 따른 이중적 위험에 노출될 수밖에 없다. 이 연구는 이십여 년 이상 장애를 갖고 삶을 이어온 사오십대의 장애인들을 통해 장애와 나이 들어감의 동시적 진행과 공존의 모습을, 그리고 죽음의 의미를 탐색하려는 의도를 가진다. 이를 위해 초점집단 면접이 실시되었으며 나이 듦에 대해 자신의 경험을 풍부하고 분명하게 묘사하고 전달할 수 있는 사례들로 구성되어 있음을 밝혀둔다. 자료분석 결과에 의하면, 장애인들의 노화는 대체로 이차장애를 수반하는 한편, 노화와 그에 수반되는 경험들이 장애의 그것을 압도하기도 하는 현상이 목격된다. 그러나 이들의 노령은 비장애인들과의 노령과는 그 접점을 찾지 못하고, 여전히 노인들내에서도 장애인으로서의 차별을 절감하게 된다. 장애인은 나이 들어감에 따라 본인 또한 노인이 된다고는 느끼지만, 사회적으로는 여전히 노인보다는 장애인으로의 장벽에 둘러싸여 있음을 확인하게 된다는 것이다. 그리고 이들이 직면하는 나이 듦과 죽음을 삶의 한 과정으로 수용하는 가운데 오늘을 유의미하게 살아내는 의지의 장으로 해석된다. 이상의 연구결과는 비록 탐색적이나마, 비장애인들과는 또 다른 모습으로 나이 들어가는 삶의 경험을 해석하는 장애인들의 노화를 이해하는 기초자료가 될 것으로 기대된다.

  • This study examined the effect of Health Education on the aged. One of the Study objectives was to improve knowledge. attitude and self-care practice about diabetes of the aged who have responded positive in the urine sugar test. The other study objective was to find out factors influencing knowledge. attitude and self-care practice about diabetes. and the relationship among the three variables. The subjects, consisting of 45 positive responders in the urine sugar test, were selected from the elderly who attend elderly citizen center in southern part of Seoul Then they were divided into an experimental and a control group. The study design was set to compare the pre and post test data between the experimental and the control group with the measures of results from Health Education services including nursing care intervention programs on the aged diabetics. The first data collection was carried out in August. 1986 through questionaires and urine sugar testing. The second data collection was done in September, 1987 through the same methods. The results of the study are summarized as follows; 1. General characteristics of the subjects The experimental group has 9 females and 14 males and the control group has 12 females and 10 males. As for the educational level, more than half of the subjects in both group had completed at least 6 years of education. And there was no significant difference in urine sugar levels between the two groups. 2. The effect of Health Education on the extent of change in knowledge, attitude and self-care practice about diabetes was found to be significant. The first hypothesis that knowledge, attitude and self-care practice about diabetes in the aged will be unchanged by Health Education. was rejected by increased the three variables and decreased urine suger level in the experimental group. The second hypothesis that knowledge, attitude and self-care practice about diabetes wouldn't be concerned with each other, was rejected. That is. the three variables and urine sugar levels showed a significant positive relationship with each other but diabetic knowledge to urine sugar level had an insignificant positive relationship. The third hypothesis that the amount of learning Health Education will have no relationships with knowledge. attitude and self-care practice about diabetes. was rejected. That is, the more number of times an elderly person participated in Health Education. they increased their diabetic knowledge. attitude and self-care practice and decreased their urine sugar level. 3. Except for Health Education, an other factor influencing diabetic knowledge was educational level. And an other factor influencing the diabetic attitude was experience of the diagnosis of diabetes. 4. Except for Health Education. the other factors influencing self-care practice were experience of the diagnasis of diabetes, sex and experience of the hospitalization for diabetes. But factors influencing urine sugar level weren't found. Although the results seem to be plausible, this study is not without its problems. In paticular, the sample used is limited in its scope and size. So, more empirical work needs to be done for other diseases as well as diabetes before any general conclusions are to be made.
