The purpose of this research is to analyze the overall problems at the moment of October 2008, and then to find the improvements of home-help services of the Long-Term Care Insurance(LTCI), which has been revealed many problems since it was released in July 2008. The research uses the literature survey which analyzes 2nd-hand materials studied by other people already, and survey research was executed from active social workers in the area of LTCI. Based on the policy analysis framework of Gilbert and Specht, all the data are analyzed in the scopes of client·benefit(service)·finance·transferring system. This research has found the problems in each scope of home-help services of the LTCI. Firstly, the client system has some problems in mismatching between registered and service clients, estimating client number, and judging service levels. Secondly, the service system reveals deficiency in professionality of social workers, service quality lowering by loose qualification criteria on workers, non-reasonable limitation of service time available, and the same fare system applied to visiting-help service in spite of different levels. Thirdly, in financing system, clients need to pay additional money to get extra services such as meal, hair cutting, bathing etc., due to government financial support stopped, some organizations have to reduce services and replace full-time workers to part-time ones, which makes the service quality worse. Lastly, in the transferring system, the management system for service quality is not well prepared. There are too much competion because of allowing too many home-help service organizations and care worker academies. The suggestions that this research has found to improve the policy are as follows. ① It is desirable to make the registered clients the service ones as many as possible in the long term perspective. ② The LTCI organization requires more workers and higher professionality. ③ Many elderly people who are not eligible now require connection system to be more served. ④ Management system and service manual for care worker are to be developed. ⑤ Laws related to the service contents and process should be modified, the proportion of client charge needs to adjust. ⑥ Home-help service organization licensed by the LTCI needs to be financially supported publicly. ⑦ Monitoring system to home-help service organization needs to be strengthened. ⑧ Evaluation tools to home-help service organization and workers is required. ⑨ Specification to open the home-help service organization needs to be more strict.

Purpose - The study verified the effects of consumers' knowledge perception upon word-of-mouth intention and purchase intention of consumers who were exposed to a lot of information, and examined consumer's behavior from multi-dimensional points of view. Research design, data, and methodology - The study conducted the test of difference between consumer's cognition on importance and satisfaction of HMR product by gap of HMR (Home Meal Replacement) product for IPA analysis. The consumer's reliability and words-of-mouth were measured by the questionnaire method with 4 questions according to Likert 7-point scale. Conversion into z-score removed the difference of variables. Results - The causal relation model for importance, satisfaction and gap, not relying upon multi-dimensional scaling and others, could construct causal relation model to give implications. Difference (d) of the products could lessen consumer's reliability to increase consumer's knowledge perception, word-of-mouth intention, knowledge perception, and purchase intention. Therefore, enterprises should make an effort to lessen consumers' complaint for the products and to elevate consumers' reliability. Enterprises also try to give consumers exact information and to promote purchase intention. Conclusions - Difference (d) of consumers' complaint and/or disappointment decreased consumers' reliability to increase knowledge perception. Enterprises should supply consumers with products according to their requirements to minimize the gap and to give them proper information.

나성의 한국 이주민의 자녀로서 사춘기에 문화권을 바꾸는 경험을 갖은 57인의 중고등 학생들을 대상으로 실시된 본 조사는 대상자의 1 ) 일반적 특성의 파악 2 ) 식습관 및 기호조사, 식품 섭취 빈도 조사 3 ) 영양지식 및 그들 어머니의 영양지식 조사 4 ) 영양실태 조사를 통하여 식생활의 변화 및 문제점을 찾아보았다. 영양실태 조사는 24-hour diet recall 방식에 의하여 기본 4군, meal pattern 및 영양소를 추산하여 한국과 미국의 RDA와 비교하였다. 위의 실태조사 결과를 요약해 보면 ; 1) 한국전통음식인 밥과 김치는 저녁식사시 모두 섭취하고 있으나 아침, 점심은 미국식단의 사용율이 높았다. 기호도 조사에 의하면 전반적으로 미국음식보다 한국음식을 더 좋아한다고 하였다. 2) 여학생은 아침식사, 남학생은 저녁식사가 불규칙하였다. 3) 여학생은 풍부한 과일의 섭취가, 남학생은 우유의 섭취가 한국에서의 식습관에 비해 그들의 건강을 위해 좋다고 하였다. 4) 영양지식의 근원은 어머니로부터가 가장 높았다. 여학생들은 철분의 근원식품에 관한 지식이 남학생보다 부족했으며, 균형된 식단의 선택 접수는 남학생보다 여학생이 높았다. 5) 기호조사 결과에 의하면 가장 싫어하는 식품은 간, 칠면조, 돼지고기, 고형 요구르트, 아보카도, 올리브 등이었고, 한번도 먹어보지 않은 식품은 부로콜리, 우설, 양고기, 망고, 탈지분유 등이었다. 이들 어머니의 기호조사 결과는 자녀들과 흡사하였으나 어머니들은 미국식품 중 한번도 시도해 보지 않은 식품의 수가 그들 자녀보다 많았다. 6) 24시간 diet recall 방법의 분석에 의하면 결핍된 영양소는 열량, 철분, 비타민 A였다. 단백질 섭취량의 증가는 현저하였으나, 낮은 열량의 섭취는 이주민의 자녀의 불규칙한 식습관의 일면과 동시에 우리나라 남학생들의 조리방법의 미숙한 면을 보여주었다.
