The study aims at exploring a general trend of psychological well-being (PWB) of elderly volunteers and analyzing the variables which give effects on their PWB. The subjects were two hundred men and women over 60 years old currently participating in voluntary service. The data collected from interviewing were analyzed by descriptive statistics, $x^2$ test, Pearson's correlation and hierarchical multiple regression. The main results are: First, PWB of the elderly is higher than the average score of PWB. Second, the elderly's generativity is positively related to PWB. Family support such as an emotional and instrumental support was also positively related to PWB. Third, the variables effecting on PWB of elderly volunteers were education level, participation frequency, generativity level, and an instrumental support of their family members on it. The lower their educational level was, the more frequently they participated in voluntary activity, the higher their generativity level was, and the more support given from their family, the higher PWB scores they showed.

The purpose of this study is to introduce policy and theoretical implications by analyzing affecting factors for the elder's happiness. For this study, we analyzed data using HLM. Data include a world value survey(hereafter, WVS) as personal level analysis data and also OECD's Social Expenditure Database(hereafter, SOCX) and database from the World Bank as national level analysis data. The subjects of personal level analysis were the elder who are over 65-years od age, and they were total 3,297 people, and while the subjects of national level analysis were total 9 OECD countries. For the data analysis, hierarchial linear model(HLM) analysis was done by using HML 7.0 program. As a result of analysis, First, for the elderly's happiness, they should improve self-disposition, members of social groups, and social class. Second, the old-age pension and the survivor's pension had no meaningful effect on the happiness. but it was found that self - disposition, social class, gender, and health status showed meaningful interaction effect according to old - age pension, survivor pension, per capita GDP, income inequality. This suggests that efforts to improve the happiness of the elderly should be made at the individual level and the national level at the same time.

Familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy is an autosomal dominant disease characterized by progressive renal disease and hyperuricemia or gout, affecting young people of either sex equally. There are two biochemical markers of this disorder. The first is hyperuricemia disproportionate to the degree of renal dysfunction; the second is a grossly reduced clearance of uric acid relative to creatinine, dispropotionate to age, sex and degree of renal failure. We experienced 2 family members with hyperuricemia. One family member, a 13-year-old girl who had suffered from tophaceous gout and chronic renal failure. Her younger brother also had hyperuricemia and moderately reduced renal function. Their urinary excretion fractions of uric acid($FE_{uric\;acid}$) were reduced and renal biopsy specimens showed interstitial fibrosis with tubular atrophy and interstitial urate crystal deposition. We have treated these two patients with allopurinol but we have done renal transplantation because she progressed to end stage renal disease at 16 year old age.

In South Korea, problems caused by material deterioration of time-worn concrete structures have been increased recently. Because severe material deterioration could damage the structure's safety, it's important to evaluate the old structure's condition and structural capacity regularly to keep its proper performance. The safety evaluation of concrete structures has been initiated and performed periodically since 1995 according to a guideline in accordance with a law in Korea. The guideline prescribes the evaluation types, intervals and methods of the target structure. A lot of cost and labor have been invested every year to carry out the regular safety evaluation. However, it's not clear that the current manual could inspect the old structure's condition and assess the structural capacity precisely. Thus, the verification study initiated to figure out the Korean safety evaluation manual's practicalness. First, the Korean manual was analyzed and then compared with that of other countries for concrete bridges which are representative concrete structure. After that, the previously written evaluation reports were collected and analyzed to find out how the safety evaluation has been carried out. Based on the study results, the parts requiring verification of the manual were drawn. A research program is in progress in order to verify the parts by performing tests with actual structural members from decommissioned concrete bridges.

The objective of this research is not only making the planning guides regarding a small-scale residential remodeling but also examining closely the social roles of the interior design for the poor and the underprivileged class by analyzing the residential remodeling cases. The scope of research includes 40 remodeling houses free of charge which are broadcasted in the TV program 'Love House'. Taking in consideration the characteristics of users like parentless or single-parent families and families with disabled persons, this study uses the spatial approach, user's convenience approach and psychological problem solving approach, in terms of the methodology. In result of the analysis of their interior design, first of all, it is essential solving the problem of limited house space by comparison with the family number. Second, the universal design concept for the family with disabled persons(72.5%), old persons or children is strengthened guaranteeing privacy in small and old interior space. Third, the interior design is focused in increasing communication among family members, because mental and physical obstacle would obstruct accessibility among them. This research shows the importance of the interior design which makes wide social roles contributing to create "welfare society".

Dentatorubropallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder usually inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. DRPLA has been shown to be associated with expansion of an unstable cytosine-adenine-guanine (CAG) trinucleotide repeat in a gene on chromosome 12p. We evaluated a family with DRPLA that affected three members; A 35-year-old female presented with seven year history of gait ataxia, dysarthria and mild cognitive impairment. The MRI of the brain revealed diffuse cerebellar atrophy with an incidental lipoma in the midbrain. Her 30-year-old brother presented with progressive cerebellar ataxia that developed at the age of 20. Her grandmother and mother were reported to have developed ataxia during the late period of their life, and died at the age of 60 and 55, respectively. The demonstration of an expanded CAG repeat in the gene for DRPLA was used to confirm the diagnosis.

Due to the aging of a building, 38.8% (about 2.82 million buildings) of the total buildings are old for more than 30 years after completion and are located in a blind spot for an inspection, except for buildings subject to regular legal inspection (about 3%). Such existing buildings require users to self-inspect themselves and make efforts to take preemptive risks. The scope of this study was defined as the general public's visual self-inspection of buildings and was limited to structural members that affect the structural stability of old buildings. This study categorized possible damage to reinforced concrete to check the structural safety of buildings and proposed a checklist to prevent the damage. A damage assessment methodology was presented during the inspection, and a self-inspection scenario was tested through a chatbot connection. It is believed that it can increase the accessibility and convenience of non-experts and induce equalized results when performing inspections, according to the chatbot guide.

최근 정신건강증진법의 전면 개정을 계기로 하여 정신장애인의 인권과 지역사회통합의 관점에서 개정 전 정신건강증진법의 문제점과 개정 정신건강증진법의 주요 개정 내용을 검토하고 평가하였다. 1995년 정신건강증진법의 제정과 다섯 차례의 개정은 정신장애인들을 사회로부터 분리 배제하는 과정이었으며 이를 정당화하고 제도적으로 뒷받침한 것이 정신보건법을 지배하는 의료적 관점이었음을 확인할 수 있었다. 정신장애인을 오직 치료의 대상으로만 접근하는 것은 정신장애인을 뚜렷한 효과 없는 치료를 명목으로 장기간 정신병원에 입원시키는 것을 정당화하고 그 속에 감추어져 있는 사회방위의 목적 또는 장신장애인의 부양의 목적을 은폐하는 역할을 하였음을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 이를 제도적으로 뒷받침한 것이 정신보건법상의 보호의무자에 의한 입원제도이다. 이러한 보호의무자에 의한 입원은 정신장애인의 입원 결정에 관여하는 부양의무를 가진 보호의무자와 정신의료기관 소속 전문의의 공공연한 이해충돌의 가능성 때문에 그 객관성과 공정성에 대하여 의심을 받아 왔을 뿐 아니라 강제입원이 신체의 자유를 구속하는 기본권제한에 요청되는 기본권 제한의 과잉금지 원칙이나 적법절차 원칙에 저촉되어 위헌적이라는 것이 평가를 받고 있다. 이러한 상황에서 개정된 개정 정신건강증진법은 강제입원의 대상인 정신질환자의 범위를 축소하고, 보호의무자에 의한 입원에 있어서 정신과 전문의 2인의 진단과 입원적합성심사위원회의 심사를 추가하는 등 강제입원의 요건과 절차를 강화하였다. 이점에 있어서 입원적합성심사위원회는 강제입원을 규제하고 입원장기화를 축소하는 데에 부분적으로 기여할 것으로 평가할 만하다. 그러나 개정된 보호의무자에 의한 입원제도도 장애인의 자유와 안전에 관한 유엔장애인권리협약 제14조 위반의 문제점을 극복하지는 못하였다. 뿐만 아니라 지역사회로 복귀할 정신장애인의 사회통합을 위한 복지서비스의 지원은 다양한 항목 설정에도 불구하고 규범적으로 약화된 형태의 규정에 머물고 있는 반면, 적절한 복지서비스의 지원의 실현에 긴요한 국가나 지방자치단체의 예산확보 방안 등에 있어서 불확실성이 크다. 향후 제도나 정책에 있어서 정신장애인의 인권과 사회통합을 위한 각별한 관심과 노력이 필요하다.

The purpose of this study is to provide necessary information for the establishment of remodeling range needed first to support the future remodeling of rural housing. For this, this study examined landscape characteristics of rural housing such as an outer wall, a roof, a fence, and a gate which are main elements of forming the landscape of a rural village and rural residents' perception for remodeling. The results were as follows. The subject rural housing mostly had a timber structure and a masonry structure. Common roof types were a hip-and-gable roof and a gable roof. Frequent materials were a panel, a tile, and slate and common colors were primary colors such as reddish brown, black, and gray. A fence made of cement blocks and finished by a white paint was often found. A closed gate with iron frames was common. A standup kitchen and a flush toilet inside the house were common. The family members of rural residents were mostly two including a farmer husband and his wife. Elderly people of sixty and over were the most common. For residential environment satisfaction, a half of respondents were not unsatisfied with residential environment mostly due to an old house. Most respondents who were not satisfied with residential environment had high perception for the need of remodeling. The most commonly asked remodeling part was a roof, followed by a toilet, and an outer wall, indicating that the need of exterior remodeling was higher than that of interior remodeling. For a remodeling method, a total improvement was preferred. Although some rural village housing was improved by support of the government, local governments, or social groups, there are still many old houses. As this co-existence of improved houses and old houses hinders the landscape of rural village, it is necessary to give a support. But rural residents' requests should be first actively reflected to establish a guideline of supporting rural house remodeling.
