Objective : The objective of this study is to create questionnaires for Social Capital (SCQ) and Built Environment (BEQ) that can be utilized as protective factors for mental health. Methods : A total of 426 adults aged 18 or older, residing in 'D' Metropolitan City in Korea, were included as subjects in this study. Data for subjective evaluation of social capital and built environment were collected through an online survey. Various statistical analyses, such as reliability analysis, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and correlation analysis between PHQ-9 and GAD-7, were conducted. Results : The Cronbach's α values for SCQ and BEQ were 0.94 and 0.90, respectively, indicating good reliability. Exploratory factor analysis revealed that SCQ consisted of 4 factors, explaining a total of 71.91%, while BEQ consisted of 4 factors, explaining a total of 62.18%. Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed that both questionnaires had a reasonable configuration, with TLI, CFI, and RMSEA values at an appropriate level. Additionally, both SCQ and BEQ showed negative correlations with depression and anxiety. Conclusion : This study has developed a tool for measuring social capital and the built environment in Korea. It also demonstrates the reliability and validity of this questionnaire. The use of this tool could greatly support preventive mental health interventions within the community.

The purpose of this study is to identify the influence of ego integrity on death anxiety of the elderly, mediated by depression based on Erikson theory(1963). For this study, 313 elderly over 60 years old in Daegu city participated in a survey. The data of the survey was analyzed using SPSS 15.0 and Structural Equation Modeling(SEM) with AMOS 7.0. The results of the study are as follows: ego integrity of the elderly does not influence death anxiety due to the suppressing effect of depression. However, depression does mediate the relation between ego integrity and death anxiety fully. Such findings suggest that the Erikson theory can also be applied to elderly Korean citizens. A practical benefit derived from the study's results is the proposition to implement a reminiscence program, reinforce depression treatment and prevention systems, and augment a death awareness movement for elderly.

The subjects in this study were 442 5th and 6th grade school children in Seoul. Data were analyzed by Pearson's correlation, Stepwise Multiple Regression, and MANOVA. The principal findings were that worry, depression, and trait anxiety were positively related to meta-cognitive knowledge, particularly, meta-worry, positive beliefs about worry, negative beliefs about worry, lower appraisal about cognitive competence, and cognitive self-consciousness. These traits were also positively related to such metacognitive regulation strategies as worry displacement, self punishment, reappraisal, and social control. Metacognition influenced worry, depression, and trait anxiety; groups having more problems worry, depression, and trait anxiety showed high scores in metacognitive knowledge and metacognitive regulation strategies.

본 연구는 청소년에 대한 빈곤의 영향을 주로 가족의 측면에서 연구하였던 기존의 관점에서 탈피하여, 빈곤청소년이 거주하는 지역사회 환경의 위험성과 폭력성에 주목하였다. 즉, 본 연구는 빈곤으로 인해 더 위험한 환경에서 거주하게 되는 청소년이 일반 청소년보다 폭력에 더 많이 노출되는지를 살펴보고, 이것이 그들의 우울과 불안을 높이는지 분석하였다. 분석 자료로 '한국청소년패널데이터' 중2 패널자료 중에서 3-5차년도 종단데이터가 활용되었으며, 통계방법으로는 구조방정식모형이 이용되었다. 분석 결과, 청소년의 빈곤 자체가 폭력피해 경험을 직접적으로 증가시키지는 않았으나 빈곤으로 인해 위험한 지역사회 환경에 거주하게 됨으로써 더욱 많은 폭력피해와 두려움을 경험하게 되며 이는 우울 및 불안으로 이어지는 것으로 나타났다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 청소년에 대한 빈곤의 부정적 영향을 줄이는 데에 지역사회의 역량 강화의 중요성을 함의로 지적하였다.
