Homelessness became a major social problem in Korea. And the homeless presents many kinds of problems in social functioning. In studies on the homeless, Physical and mental health, alcohol and subtance abuse, the vulnerability of the social support have been frequently described as major characteristics of the homeless. Of the homeless' psychosocial characteristics, this article focused on the lack of the social support, which plays a important role on the exit from homelessness. The lack of social support has been mentioned as cause for homelessness. But a few researchers stressed the perspective that the homelessness causes the lack of social support. This article analyzed empirically the lack of social support among the homeless in terms of "social disaffiliation". This article hypothesized: (a) as longer homeless duration, the extent of the perceived social support would be decreased, (b) as longer homeless duration, the magnitude of the social network would be decreased, (c) as longer homeless duration, the ratio of the homeless in social network would be increased. Survey data collected from 355 homeless persons (sheltered homeless) at 82 shelters in Seoul. The result of analysis supports 'social disaffiliation hypotheses'. The result of this study suggests that the social work intervention to strengthen social support and social network be critically important in homeless shelter.

Schizophrenics were divided into positive, subpositive, subnegative and negative subgroups by present symptom and social network of both schizophrenics and control group were evaluated. The results are as follows: 1) Social network of schizophrenics was smaller than that of control group. Size of social network of schizophrenics was 10.6 and that of control group was 23.5. 2) In both kin and nonkin, social network of schizophrenics was smaller than that of control group. Of the kin, schizophrenics were more supported by wife or husband, father, and mother, but were less supported by brother, son and other relatives. 3) There was no difference in the kin or nonkin or total supporters between the four subgroups of schizophrenics. But, subgroup of schizophrenics which was divided as having negative symptom had smaller network than control group in active formal and informal supporters. 4) When divided into 4 support areas, schizophrenics was remarkably less supported in emotional, instrumental and appraisal support area than control group, but there was no difference in the informational support areas. 5) Compared with control group, schizophrenics more often mentioned parent and ten often mentioned nonkin supporter as the one that is most important to him. 6) Schizophrenics had smaller cluster and less leisure activity than control group.

This study attempted to identify the type of social network interventions and barriers to implement them. Few empirical studies have been conducted concerning social network interventions as professional activities. Although social support and social network interventions have been noted as important practice concepts, the existing studies ten us little about how social workers perceive and experience social network interventions. This study used seven types of social network interventions identified in the previous studies. And based on "obstacles to social network interventions scale" developed by Biegel, Tracy & Song (1995), a twenty-two item scale was developed by the authors. The results from this study show that social workers little implement social network interventions such as community empowerment, family caregiver enhancement, and support group, and that they perceive organization characteristics and profession-oriented culture as important obstacles to implement social network interventions. The findings from this study suggest various strategies to address these barriers.

Purpose: To examine the relationships among loneliness, social support, and family function in elderly Korean. Method: The sample for this study were 290 elderly Korean who were at least 60 years of age. Data were collected by interview using the translated Korean versions of the Revised University of California Los Angels Loneliness Scale(RULS), Family APGAR, and Social Support Questionnaire 6. Result: Subjects were moderately lonely and had moderately functional families. Means for social support were 1.42 for network size and 4.09 for satisfaction. Subjects who lived with their spouses had a larger number of network members than who did not live with spouses. However, living with spouses was not associated with social support satisfaction. The level of loneliness was related negatively to the level of social support network, social support satisfaction and family function in this study. Social support satisfaction and Family function were the significant predictor of loneliness. Conclusion: The number of social supporter and satisfaction and family function should be considered in nursing intervention to decrease the level of loneliness in older adults. Further studies and efforts will be needed to reduce the level of loneliness in older adults.

최근 대학 수업에서 SNS(Social Network Service)를 활용하여 교수자와 학습자 간의 협력적인 상호작용 및 의사소통을 향상시키고자 지속적인 노력이 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구는 SNS를 활용한 수업에서 예비교사의 자아탄력성, 사회적 지지 수준이 수업성과 인식에 어떠한 관계가 있는가를 알아보기 위하여 대전 충남지역 대학의 예비교사 137명을 대상으로 하여 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구 결과에 따르면, 여학생보다 남학생의 수업 만족도가 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 자아탄력성-사회적 지지, 자아탄력성-수업 만족도, 사회적 지지-수업 만족도, 사회적 지지-학기 만족도, 수업 만족도-학기 만족도 간에 유의한 상관이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 자아탄력성과 사회적 지지가 수업성과 인식에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이에, 대학 교직과정에서 다양한 뉴미디어를 활용한 수업을 성공적으로 운영하기 위해서는 학습자 특성 및 수업활동 적응에 보다 세밀한 관심을 기울일 필요가 있다.

본 연구는 농촌여성노인의 사회적지지망과 사회적지지가 우울에 미치는 영향을 파악하고자 시도되었다. 본 연구대상자는 충청남도의 일 농촌지역에 거주하고 있는 65세 이상의 여성 노인 112명으로 설문지를 통해 친족과 비친족의 사회적 지지망(크기, 접촉빈도, 만족도), 사회적지지(정서적지지, 물질적지지), 우울을 측정하였고, 경로분석을 통해 사회적 지지망과 사회적지지가 우울에 미치는 영향력을 분석하였다. 연구결과 농촌여성노인의 친족만족도와 물질적지지가 우울에 직접효과를 갖는 요인으로 확인되었고, 친족크기와 친족만족도는 물질적지지를 매개로하여 우울에 영향을 미치는 요인임을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 농촌여성노인들의 우울을 감소시키기 위해 친족만족도를 향상시키고 물질적지지를 제공할 수 있는 다양한 사회적지지 체계가 마련되어야 할 것이다.
