  • Background: The Occupational Safety and Health Monitoring and Assessment Tool (OSH-MAT) is a practical instrument that is currently used in the German woodworking and metalworking industries to monitor safety conditions at workplaces. The 12-item scoring system has three subscales rating technical, organizational, and personnel-related conditions in a company. Each item has a rating value ranging from 1 to 9, with higher values indicating higher standard of safety conditions. Methods: The reliability of this instrument was evaluated in a cross-sectional survey among 128 companies and its validity among 30,514 companies. The inter-rater reliability of the instrument was examined independently and simultaneously by two well-trained safety engineers. Agreement between the double ratings was quantified by the intraclass correlation coefficient and absolute agreement of the rating values. The content validity of the OSH-MAT was evaluated by quantifying the association between OSH-MAT values and 5-year average injury rates by Poisson regression analysis adjusted for the size of the companies and industrial sectors. The construct validity of OSH-MAT was examined by principle component factor analysis. Results: Our analysis indicated good to very good inter-rater reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.64-0.74) of OSH-MAT values with an absolute agreement of between 72% and 81%. Factor analysis identified three component subscales that met exactly the structure theory of this instrument. The Poisson regression analysis demonstrated a statistically significant exposure-response relationship between OSH-MAT values and the 5-year average injury rates. Conclusion: These analyses indicate that OSH-MAT is a valid and reliable instrument that can be used effectively to monitor safety conditions at workplaces.

  • In Korea, the position of health among the sectors of everyday life lies behind the others. The inhabitants don't consider health so important and immediate as food and shelter. Primarily, it seemed more important for them to eat something and to educate their children than to secure health. Under this situations we must take into consideration their health status and health problems in terms of the social system. Health cannot be maintaned by itself. It inter acts with a set of social conditions such as income, knowledge about health, health institution, health insurance, social class, culture and etc. But the community health projects which have carried out in Korea since the beginning of 1970s focused mainly on the medical care and medical delivery itself regardless the background of health care. According to the existing results of socio-epidemiological and medico-sociological researches, a set of social conditions has a great effect on the inhabitants' health status and health care. So, such conditions will be considered primarily in Korea University Health Project. This paper is prepared as a preliminary step for such a program. In this paper we mainly inquired into the relationship between health and the attitudes of inhabitants.

  • Purpose - This study aims to identify consumer tendencies in Korea and Vietnam, focusing on the online platform called cross-border, to derive revenue generation measures and use them for strategies to advance into ASEAN. Design/methodology - The questionnaire collected 420 copies from December 1 to December 31, 2020, of which 408 were used for statistical processing. The structural equation model (SEM) and moderating effect analysis with Amos was used to test hypothesis in this research. Findings - The hypotheses were set as factors that positively influence the intention to use e-commerce, such as effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions and variety seeking showed statistically significant results. Among them, the social influence factor had the greatest influence, followed by facilitating condition. The sample was divided into countries, Korea and Vietnam, and these changes and differences in influence were confirmed through moderating effect analysis. Originality/value - The moderating effect on both countries (Korea and Vietnam) was found to have a moderating effect on the intention to use. For Korean consumers, significant results were found in the effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, and variety seeking, but for Vietnamese consumers, there were significant effects on the social influence and facilitating conditions, but the effort expectancy and variety seeking had no significant effect.

  • 사회적기업은 영리성을 추구함에도 불구하고 사회적미션 지향의 조직이다. 미션 지향(mission attachment)은 근로자를 동기화할 수 있고 근로를 유지할 수 있게 하는 강력한 인적자원관리 도구로 인식되고 있다. 본 연구는 사회적기업에 종사하는 여성근로자의 재직의도에 미치는 영향요인을 밝히고 동시에 사회적미션 지향성이 고용불안 및 직무만족과 재직의도간의 관계를 조절하는 역할을 하는지 검증하고자 한다. 이를 위해 로지스틱 회귀분석(Logistic Regression)을 적용하여 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 여성근로자의 82.3%가 사회적기업에 잔류할 의향이 있는 것으로 나타났고, 사회적 미션 지향성은 여성근로자의 고용불안이 재직의도에 미치는 관계에 있어 부(-)적인 영향으로 미쳐 완화하는 효과를 나타났다. 결국 사회적기업이 여성친화적 일자리가 되기 위해서는 외재적 고용 조건뿐만 아니라 사회적 미션과 같은 내재적 노동 조건도 고려할 필요성에 대한 함의를 제시하였다.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the actual conditions of successful ageing and the influencing factors focusing on social support from family and friends to improve elderly's quality of life. The 300 respondents, all participants in programs at facilities for the elderly, were interviewed via a questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 23.0. The results are as follows. First, the average score for successful ageing among the participants was above average. Second, the level of successful ageing varied according to income and religion. Third, the common variables affecting active or emotionally successful ageing were support from friends, subjective health conditions, and gender. It is suggested that the community should be informed of the importance of support from family through educational programs, as the elderly still want the support of family despite family's reduced role.

  • The amount of content on social media platforms such as Twitter is expanding rapidly. Simultaneously, the lack of patient information seriously hinders the diagnosis and treatment of rare/intractable diseases. However, these patient communities are especially active on social media. Data from social media could serve as a source of patient-centric knowledge for these diseases complementary to the information collected in clinical settings and patient registries, and may also have potential for research use. To explore this question, we attempted to extract patient-centric knowledge from social media as a task for the 3-day Biomedical Linked Annotation Hackathon 6 (BLAH6). We selected amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and multiple sclerosis as use cases of rare and intractable diseases, respectively, and we extracted patient histories related to these health conditions from Twitter. Four diagnosed patients for each disease were selected. From the user timelines of these eight patients, we extracted tweets that might be related to health conditions. Based on our experiment, we show that our approach has considerable potential, although we identified problems that should be addressed in future attempts to mine information about rare/intractable diseases from Twitter.

  • This study was to explore the living experiences of the disabled adults who were participating in public education Yahak program held at evening class. The study designed in-depth interviews with ten disabled people using a grounded theory approach. Through analyzing process, 34 concepts, 15 subcategories, and eight categories were deduced. In axial coding, casual condition, 'Suffering from unknown cause disabilities' and 'Isolated by social cause', context condition, 'Taking discriminative treat for disabilities' impacted on phenomenon, 'Overcoming their conditions by themselves'. Intervening conditions was 'Taking social supports' and action-interaction condition, 'Enjoying public programs' totally lead to consequence in 'Controlling daily life' and 'Exploring their own social roles'. The periods of process were divided three stages, reflecting disabled situation, formation phase of social relation, and self-developing phase. The core category, 'Trying to be recognized as a member of society' incorporated the relationship between and among all categories and explained the process. The study indicates that social education program for the disabled helped to develop themselves as a member of society. Therefore, we suggest there may be a need for training for professionals who work with disabled people to develop social adaptation.

  • 본 연구는 동양문화권의 자기(self)에 대한 인식과 행복조건에 대한 인식이 서구인에 비해 외적인 요소들의 비중이 높다는 선행연구를 바탕으로, 이런 인식이 성장과정에서 형성되는 것인지 살펴보고, 또한 사회비교 정도와는 어떤 관련성이 있는지 검증하려는 목적에서 초등학생, 중, 고, 대학생 남녀 954명을 대상으로 연구를 수행하였다. 초등학생과 중학생은 자기개념에서 내적(內的) 단서의 비중이 높았으나, 고등학생은 외적(外的) 단서의 비중이 높았고, 대학생은 내-외 단서의 비중이 동일하게 나타났다. 행복조건에 대해서도 가족의 화목, 마음의 평화 같은 내적조건에 대해서는 초등학생과 중학생이 더 중요하다고 인식하는 반면, 학벌, 직업, 돈 같은 외적조건에 대해서는 고등학생과 대학생이 중요도를 더 높게 평가하였다. 사회비교 정도는 초, 중학생보다 고등학생과 대학생이 높은 것으로 나타났고, 학년이 높을수록, 그리고 사회비교를 많이 할수록 외적 자기개념을 형성하였고, 자기존중감은 낮았다. 특히, 고등학생들은 네 집단 중 사회비교 경향이 가장 높고 외적 자기개념을 형성하며 행복에 대해서도 외적 조건들을 가장 중시하는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 우리 청소년들은 경쟁지향적 환경에서 성장함에 따라 점차 외적 특성 중심의 자기개념과 행복에 대한 사고 경향이 강화됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • 본 연구에서는 본격적인 제도화를 앞두고 있는 호스피스 완화 돌봄에서 사회복지 실천의 중요성에 주목하여, 전국의 완화의료 전문기관에 소속된 11명의 사회복지사들을 대상으로 다학제적 팀 내 사회복지사의 전문적 정체성에 대해 근거이론 연구방법을 통해 살펴보았다. 분석 결과 166개의 개념과 21개의 하위범주가 도출되었으며 이를 기반으로 10개의 범주를 구성하였다. 병원 현장이라는 환경적 특성과 더불어 호스피스 완화의료 전문기관 지원사업의 문제가 근본적 원인으로 설정되었으며, 사회복지사 업무의 모호성과 사회복지사 자격 및 양성문제가 사회복지사의 전문적 정체성의 혼란에 맥락적 조건이 되는 것으로 나타났다. 성공적인 다학제적 팀 활동은 이러한 문제를 완화시킬 수 있는 중재조건이 되었다. 사회복지사들은 대인적, 개인적 대응전략을 통해 전문가로서의 존재의 의미를 인식하고 보람과 인간적 성장을 경험하였다. 범주들을 관통하는 핵심범주는 "호스피스 사회복지사로서 다른 전문직과 클라이언트에게 인정받는 전문가로 성장하기" 로 설정되었다. 호스피스 완화 돌봄의 실천현장에서 사회복지사의 전문적 정체성을 확립하고 전문가로서의 재가를 얻기 위하여 제도적 여건 개선이 필요함을 제안하였다.
