Objectives: We examined whether the neighborhood socioeconomic position predicts the smoking rates after adjusting for individual socioeconomic position indicators. Methods: Data were obtained from the 2001 Seoul Health Indicators Survey. The neighborhood socioeconomic position was the residential distribution of the high class (power elites), as measured by the location quotients (LQ) for each administrative dong (district). A high LQ denotes a high neighborhood socioeconomic status. The individual socioeconomic position included education, occupation and income. Age-adjusted smoking rates according to the LQ level were computed with the direct method. The total number of subjects in this study (26,022 men and 28,007 women) was the reference. A multilevel logistic regression analysis was conducted with the individuals at the first level and the neighborhoods at the second level to estimate the odds ratios of smoking with 95% confidence intervals. Results: For men, the age-adjusted smoking rates increased with a decrease in the LQ. For women, the relationship between the age-adjusted smoking rate and the LQ was not clear. The odds of smoking for both genders were greater among those subjects with lower incomes and lower education. The manual occupational class had greater odds of smoking than the non-manual class for the males, while the odds ratio of smoking among females with a manual occupation tended to be lower than those females with a non-manual occupation. For the males, the LQ levels independently predicted smoking after adjustment for individual income. However, this relation between the LQ and smoking in males was explained by full adjustment for the individual socioeconomic position indicators (education, occupation and income). Conclusions: A low level of neighborhood socioeconomic position was associated with higher smoking rates among the men residing in Seoul. This association between the neighborhood socioeconomic position and smoking in men was explained by the individual socioeconomic position. Anti-smoking efforts to reduce geographical inequality in smoking should be directed at reducing the smoking rates between the individuals with different socioeconomic backgrounds in the metropolitan city of Seoul, South Korea.

This paper is to analyze the past and present consumption pattern of fishes aquacultured in marine waters and thus to draw the policy direction to enhance the competitiveness of marine fish aquaculture in Korea. At present, the volume of meat consumption is surveyed to be more than that of marine fish, but it is revealed that fish consumption will become more increasing in the future according to the rise of the income. The survey shows that the consumption of fish is highest in the fall, and among the various patterns of consumption, live fish, so-called susi, is surveyed to be highly dominant. It is revealed that fish is enjoyed because of the special savor, diverse nutrients, and the prevention of adult diseases. Natural fish Is revealed to be more preferred to aquacultured one due to the sticky flesh quality and the low probability of the remained after the production process antibiotics, so that it is necessary to enhance the taste quality and make a clean cultivation to capture more market demand. Consumption of high-quality fish seems to become high in more than middle class and consumption of fish are estimated to increase in the future, more than that of meat if income level of the people increases. Also, if we try to make our high-quality fish become popular among the public and competible with the imported fish from abroad, it is recommended that they must lower production price by cost reduction and try to differentiate it by taste and environmental safety, etc. It was revealed that the significant factor in demand function for fish is income and it is almost the only factor affecting that demand. Also, it was revealed that the most significant factor affecting preference of fish is income and it Is almost the only factor affecting the preference. Therefore, we can ascertain that if proper goods can be distributed, demand for and preference of fish may increase according to the increase of income in the future.

이 연구는 사적 소득이전이 우리나라의 빈곤율을 어느 정도 낮추며, 소득계층별로 사적 소득이전에 의한 빈곤감소 효과가 어떻게 차이가 있는지를 실증적으로 분석하고자 하였다. 이 연구는 1996년, 1997년, 1998년 도시가계조사 원자료와, 한국보건사회연구원과 한국노동연구원이 1998년도에 조사한 실업가구조사 원자료를 분석자료로 이용하였다. 분석결과 다음과 같은 사실들을 발견할 수 있었다. 첫째, 우리나라의 사적 이전은 공공복지와는 비교가 안될 정도로 큰 규모를 형성하고 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 도시근로자 가구, 실업가구 모두에서 사적 이전소득 수혜율이 공적 이전소득 수혜율 보다 휠씬 높았고, 이전소득의 절대량도 사적 이전이 공적 이전보다 더 큰 것으로 분석되었다. 둘째, 사적 이전에 의한 빈곤감소 효과는 그다지 크지 않은 것으로 분석되었다. 도시근로자 가구 전체를 대상으로 할 때, 사적 이전의 빈곤감소율은 $10{\sim}11%$ 정도이고, 실업가구 전체를 대상으로 할 경우 빈곤감소율은 3% 내외에 불과했다. 셋째, 사적 이전은 극빈층의 빈곤감소에는 거의 기여하지 못하는 것으로 분석되었다. 도시근로자 가구 전체를 대상으로 할 때, 사적 이전은 극빈층이라고 할 수 있는 하위 5% 계층의 빈곤율을 전혀 하락시키지 못했고, 실업가구를 대상으로 할 경우에도 소득이 전혀 없거나 매우 적은 가구들인 하위 40% 이하 계층의 빈곤율을 겨우 $0.6{\sim}0.7%$ 포인트 정도밖에 떨어뜨리지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 사적 이전이 극빈층의 빈곤감소에는 거의 기여하지 못하지만, 극빈층이 현재의 생활을 유지하는 데는 매우 중요한 것으로 밝혀졌다. 도시근로자 가구를 대상으로 할때, 사적 이전소득을 수혜하는 하위 5% 계층의 경우 경상소득 대비 사적 이전소득의 비율이 25.6%에 이르며, 실업가구들에서 사적 이전소득이 있는 하위 20%계층의 경우소득 대비 사적 이전소득의 비율이 1이며, 하위 $21{\sim}40%$ 계층의 경우에도 그 비율은 52%에 달한다.

The objectives of this study were 1) to analyze the attitudes about Elderly Assisted Living(EAL), 2) to consider the policy implications for elderly communal housing according to socio-economic status(income, occupation and education). The survey was undertaken from August to September, 2000 in Seoul and Kyunggi-Do(Ilsan, Bundang). The data were analyzed by SPSS Window program. The major findings were as follows: Most of the respondents prefered to live in EAL(over 56%), under 10 units and desired to be serviced(housework.leisure medical program.meal service). The upper class respondents preferred high-rise apartment style inner city or suburban and prefered paid services in EAL. They would willingly to pay over 800,000 won for living expenses and more than 200 million won for buying their own EAL. The middle class respondents prefered 5 stories multi-family house style with common facilities as a number. And they prefered to common facilities opening to public if the quality of facilities were better. The low class respondents prefered 5 stories multi-family house style and prefered to live within 30 minutes apart from their families and friends. They would pay under 300,000~600,000won for monthly living expenses and under 100 million won for their own EAL.

Targeting breast cancer awareness along with comprehensive cancer care is appropriate in low and middle income countries like India, where there are no organized and affordable screening services. It is essential to identify the existing awareness about breast cancer in the community prior to launching an organized effort. This study assessed the existing awareness about breast cancer amongst women and their health seeking practices in an urban community in Mumbai, India. A postal survey was undertaken with low or no cost options for returning the completed questionnaires. The majority of the women were aware about cancer but awareness about symptoms and signs was poor. Women were willing to accept more information about cancer and those with higher awareness scores were more likely to seek medical help. They were also more likely to have undergone breast examination in the past and less likely to use alternative medicines. High income was associated with better awareness but this did not translate into better health seeking behaviour. Organized programmes giving detailed information about breast cancer and its symptoms are needed and women from all income categories need to be encouraged for positive change towards health seeking. Further detailed studies regarding barriers to health seeking in India are necessary.

Objectives: To identify and evaluate the trend of meal-skipping rates among Korean adolescents with their contributing causes and the influence of household income level on meal skipping. Methods: Using 2008, 2010, and 2012 data from the Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey of 222 662 students, a cross-sectional study with subgroup analysis was performed. We calculated odds ratios for skipping each meal 5 or more times in a week by household socio-economic status using a multiple logistic regression model. The secular change in the meal-skipping rates by the students' family affluence scale was analyzed by comparing the meal-skipping students within each subgroup and odds ratios for the same event over time. Results: Through 2008 to 2012, most of the meal-skipping rates generally showed a continuous increase or were almost unchanged in both sexes, except for breakfast skipping in several subgroups. Students in low-income households not living with both parents had the highest meal-skipping rates and odds ratios for frequent meal skipping. In a time-series subgroup analysis, the overall odds ratios for the same event increased during 2008 to 2012, with a slight reduction in the gap between low and higher income levels with regard to meal skipping during 2010 to 2012. Conclusions: Household socio-economic status and several other factors had a significant influence on Korean adolescent meal-skipping rates. Although the gap in eating behavior associated with household socio-economic differences is currently decreasing, further study and appropriate interventions are needed.

To explore the relationship between economic status and food and nutrient intake patterns, the 2001 National Health and Nutrition Survey result was analyzed. Dietary intake data of 6,978 Korean adults of 20 years and older who participated in the 2001 National Health and Nutrition Survey were used along with their demographic data. Economic status of the subjects was classified into the following 4 groups based on the self-reported average monthly income of household with reference to the minimum monthly living expenses (MLE) in 2001 : low < $100\%$ MLE $\leq$ middle < $200\%$ MLE $\leq$ high < $300\%$ MLE $\leq$ higher, Individuals in the higher income class had significantly higher mean intake for most of the nutrients including energy, protein, carbohydrate, fat, calcium, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin and vitamin C, and a higher percentage of energy intake from fat. In addition, they consumed more animal foods including meats, eggs, fish/shellfish, milk/dairy products and fats. On the other hand, the mean intakes of individuals in the lower economic class for calcium, vitamin A, and riboflavin were lower than $75\%$ of RDAs. And, there was a predominant difference in contribution of fat to total energy intake among the groups of different economic status. These results showed that household income is an important factor influencing the food and nutrient intake patterns of the Korean adult population. Although individuals at different age classes may respond differently to a change in economic status, developing and implementing nutrition policy and intervention programs for those nutritionally vulnerable groups should consider the economic status as an important factor to customize and differentiate the content of the Program.

The purpose of this study is to examine the leisure activities of housewives, to identify the factors that influence leisure activities, and to explore the factors contribute to their life satisfaction. So, this study analyses the effects of econo-demographic and socio-cultural variables and of leisure constraint factors on the leisure activities of housewives. And it deals with how these variables and the leisure activities influence life satisfaction of housewives. For these puoposes, 508 housewives residing in Seoul & Daegu were selected for interviews. For data analysis such statistical methods as ANOVA, t-test, Pearson's correlation, adn Multiple Regression Analysis can be summarised. The main findings of the research are as follows: 1. Leisure acivities are classified in Self-developmental, Home-oriented, Time-consuming, Social and Children-concerned types by the technique of factor analysis. The average particiation level was high in Time-consuming type, but low in Self-developmental type. 2. The participation level of leisure activities shows significant differences by selected variables: The Self-developmental type shows significant differences by housewife's education level, income, husband's occupation, role orientation, home management type and leisure constraints. And Children-concerned type was differed to number of family nember, number of children, age of housewife and age of housewife and age of the youngst child. 3. The preference level of leisure activities differ by housewife's education level, income, husband's occupation, home management type and leisure constraints in the Self-developmental and the Social type. And the preference level of Home-oriented leisure activities was high in the middle class of income and husband's occupation. 4. The preference and participation level of leisure activities show differences. And the variables affecting the differences were housewife's age, education level, home management type, role orientation, leisure constraint factors in the Self-developmental type, and were demographic variables such as number of family member, housewife's age in the Home-oriented type. 5. The variables which affected the level of life satisfaction independently were leisure space, income, the participation level of the Self-developmental and the Social type and the preference level of the Self-developmental type.

본 연구는 은퇴생활의 이질성과 다양성을 전제로 우리나라 중 고령자의 은퇴 전과 후의 생활만족도 변화양상에 있어 복수의 변화궤적을 확인하고, 각 궤적의 형태와 특성을 파악하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 국민노후보장패널 1차~3차 자료(2005~2009)를 활용하여 만 50세에서 만 69세인 중 고령자 중 1차 시점과 2차 시점 사이에 완전은퇴 또는 부분 은퇴한 243명의 자료를 분석하였다. 생활만족도의 다중궤적을 분석하기 위해 잠재집단성장분석(latent class growth analysis, LCGA)을 실시하였으며, 하위 변화유형별 궤적집단의 결정요인을 파악하기 위해 다항로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과, 우리나라 중 고령자의 은퇴 전후 생활만족의 변화양상은 세 개의 유형이 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 첫 번째 유형은 은퇴와 관계없이 은퇴 전과 후 모두 높은 수준의 생활만족도를 보이는 '고수준 유지형(47.7%)', 두 번째는 은퇴 전에는 생활만족도 수준이 높지만 은퇴 후 생활만족도가 감소하는 '고수준 감소형(42.8%)', 그리고 은퇴 전 생활만족도 수준이 낮았으며, 은퇴 이후에도 만족이 지속적으로 감소하는 '저수준 감소형(9.5%)'으로 구분되었다. 즉, 은퇴로 인한 삶의 질이 감소하는 위험집단은 약 50%에 이르며, 이 중 약 10%는 가장 취약한 집단으로 분석되었다. 이러한 은퇴 전후 생활만족도 변화유형을 예측하는 요인을 응답자의 개인특성, 경제적 상태, 그리고 은퇴전 직장특성으로 구분하여 다항로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시하여다. 그 결과 은퇴 전보다 은퇴 후의 건강상태가 좋을수록 '고수준 감소형'보다 '고수준 유지형'에 속한 승산이 높았다. 그리고 교육수준이 중졸이하이고, 은퇴 이후 건강수준이 좋아지기 보다는 유지되고, 가구소득이 낮고, 은퇴전 종사상 지위가 임시 일용직인 중 고령자일수록 '고수준 유지형'보다는 '저수준 감소형'에 속할 승산이 높게 나타났다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 중 고령자들이 은퇴 전환과정을 성공적으로 보내기 위한 사회복지적 함의를 제시하고, 본 연구의 제한점과 후속연구방향에 대해 제시하였다.
