For these purposes, the researcher conducted a self-administrative questionnaire survey of 370 dental hygienists working in dental clinics or offices located in the Seoul and Daejeon areas from June 2 to 21 in 2008 and collected data, statistical analysis of the $x^2$-test, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson Correlation used. resulting in the following findings. 1. In perceived images of the elderly according to their general characteristics, a subject group with under 8-year career showed 85.38 points, indicating the statistically significant difference (p=0.001). 2. When we look at perceived images of the elderly and behaviors toward them according their characteristics, in images of the elderly, a subject group with positive perceptions of the elderly showed 85.51 points (p=0.000), a subject group with meaningful old person(s), 84.66 points (p=0.000), a subject group living with old person(s), 86.04 points (p=0.001), and a subject group with experience in volunteer service activities, 84.11 points (p=0.001), and in behaviors toward the elderly, a subject group with positive perceptions of the elderly and with meaningful old person(s) showed 56.46 (p=0.036) and 55.91 points respectively, indicating the statistically significant difference (p=0.040). 3. Images of the elderly and behaviors toward them showed a positive correlation, indicating that the more positive images of the elderly, the more positive behaviors toward them (r=0.317). Putting these results together, it is thought that it is time to need continuous education and efforts regarding the formation of desirable relationships with and images of the elderly and behaviors toward them, for dental hygienists who have an important role in managing and enhancing the elderly's dental health in the aging society.

Purpose: This study was to present improvement strategy and the problems of the nursing fee in national health insurance system. Methods: A total of 23 nursing activities performed by nurses were selected. Data were collected the relative value score and criteria of the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Agency. Sixty clinical nursing experts panels were composed and nursing time surveyed self-reported method. The actual fee was calculated through the nursing time, relative value score and actual labor costs. Nextly, the labor costs analyzed was compared with that in the national health insurance. Results: Although the practices were mainly performed by the nurse, other occupations have been recorded as main practitioners and the time of the nursing activity is partially improperly reflected. Additionally, although the nurse practiced mainly in glucose (semi-quantitative) test, it was confirmed that the principal practitioner was described as a clinical pathologist. The the labor cost gap was estimated that is 9.3 times (median) and 11.9 times (average) in this analysis. Conclusion: This study suggests that it is necessary to legislate a policy that can improve the quality of clinical nursing by reinforcing the appropriateness and improving nursing fee through reflection of the actual time spent for nursing care.

본 연구는 교사-유아 관계가 유아의 성별 및 기질과 같은 개인적 특성과 교사-유아 간의 성별에 따라 교사-유아 관계의 특성에 차이가 있는지를 알아보고, 유아의 기질 및 교사-유아 간의 상호작용 빈도와 교사-유아 관계의 관련성을 살펴보았다. 연구대상은 서울시에 소재한 한 유아교육기관에 다니는 만 3~4세 유아 51명과 이들의 어머니 그리고 담임교사이었다. 유아의 기질은 어머니가 평가하였고, 교사-유아관계의 질은 담임교사가 평정하였다. 교사-유아 상호작용은 관찰자에 의해 자유선택활동시간 동안 유아주도 상호작용과 교사주도 상호작용으로 구분하여 빈도를 측정하였다. 자료분석 결과, 유아교사는 여아들과는 친밀한 관계를, 남아들과는 갈등 관계를 더 많이 형성하는 것으로 나타났다. 유아의 기질과 교사-유아 관계에서는 의도적 통제 수준이 낮은 유아일수록 교사와 갈등적인 관계를 형성하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 교사-유아 관계가 교사-유아 간의 상호작용 특성과 관련이 있는지를 살펴본 결과, 갈등적인 관계를 맺고 있는 유아에 대해 교사는 상호작용을 더 적게 시도하는 경향이 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of an aging management program on the resilience and successful aging of middle-aged women. Methods: A quasi-experimental study with a non-equivalent control and pre-post test design was used. The participants were 39 middle-aged women living in urban areas in Korea. The experimental group (n=22) received the aging management program for a total of 10 weeks, 90 minutes to 120 minutes per week. The aging management program consisted of strategies to enhance the behavior, promotion conditions, and habits of the program, including various activities for middle-aged women. The data were analyzed using χ² tests, independent t-tests, and repeated measures analysis of variance with the SPSS/WIN 21.0 program. Results: The resilience score of the experimental group was significantly higher level than the score of the control group in the time-to-group interactions (F=3.70, p=0.029). The successful aging score of the experimental group was significantly higher than the score of the control group in the time-to-group interactions (F=5.86, p=0.004). However, the sub-hypotheses of resilience (self-regulation and interpersonal relationships) and successful aging (physical aging adaptation and psychological age adaptation) were partially accepted. Conclusions: The aging management program for middle-aged women was identified as an effective intervention for promoting resilience and successful aging in middle-aged women. Therefore, this suggests that the aging care program could be a useful intervention program to improve the mental health of middle-aged women living in communities.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate functional disability for the elderly in rural Korea and to identify influencing factors of functional disability. Methods : The data were collected for 76 community-dwelling elderly in rural area and above 65 years. We assessed cognitive function, functional disability, depression using LACLS, WHODAS 2.0, SGDS-K. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics for general characteristics of subjects, Spearman's correlation among LACLS, SGDS-K, WHODAS 2.0, age, educational levels. And multiple regression was used to find influencing factors of functional disability. Results : As a result of this study, we identified that WHODAS 2.0 total score was 50.59, summary score was 9.94 and functional disability of the elderly in rural area is in the 70^th percentile. The highest level of disability occurred in areas related to 'life activities (household)', 'participation in society' and the lowest level of disability occured in areas of 'self-care', 'getting along with people'. Functional disability was significantly correlated with age (r=.398), cognitive function (r=-.547), depression (r=-.563) but not educational levels (r=-.215). Finally, we confirmed that depression (𝛽=.371), cognitive function (𝛽=-.263), widowed status (𝛽=.303), age (𝛽=.272), non-participation of community program (𝛽=.165) was significantly influencing factors of functional disability and the explanatory power of these factors was 52.80 %. Conclusion : This study revealed important factors of functional disability. Therefore, we need to consider these factors when we developed program related to health for the elderly (aged > 65 years) in rural Korea. Further, we need to standardize WHODAS 2.0 in order to enhance its applicability in clinical practices.

The architecture reflects geographical characteristics such as geographical environments and climate, it has the characteristics and cultural characteristics of the region that has been constructed. Hansen Village constructed in Period of Japanese Occupation at 'Sorok-Island' in Go-heung, Jeollanam-do was also based on this point. The village, which is a ward of Sorok-Island Province, consists of a village in which patients are self-sufficient in economic and social activities, unlike the modern hospital systems where patients and treatments are concentrated in a single room. Additionally, the facilities for patient acceptance were gradually expanded, with limited interaction with external. Sorok-island shows the expansion of the village center where the new village is formed with the increase of the number of the early adopters in the 1910s and the accommodation facility is built, and it gradually increases the necessary space by opening and repairing the existing facilities by the 1990s Change. In addition, the spatial composition of the village can be divided into three types : decentralized, centralized and single-shift ; it has the same causal relationship as the village's formation. The purpose of this study is identifying the uniqueness of Sorok-Island by analyzing the correlation between the formation of a village to accommodate Hansen Patients in Sorok-Island and the spatial Component Factor.
