이 연구는 우리나라 사회복지사의 노화사실 인지정도와 노인에 대한 태도를 측정하고, 사회복지사의 노인에 대한 태도에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 요인을 규명하기 위한 목적으로 수행되었다. 이를 위하여 전국의 가형 종합사회복지관 부설 재가복지봉사센터에서 근무하고 있는 사회복지사 전체를 표본으로 국내에서 신뢰도와 타당도가 확보된 노화사실 인지척도를 사용하여 이들의 노화사실에 관한 인지정도를 측정하고, 윤진(1988)의 척도를 재구성하여 노인에 대한 태도를 평가하였다. 설문지의 회수율은 71.6%이며, 수집된 자료 129부는 주로 티검증(t-test)과 일원분산분석(one-way ANOVA)을 활용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과를 정리하면, (1) 노화사실에 대한 사회복지사의 인지정도는 65.3%로서 간호사(65.0%)보다 약간 높은 수준이었다. (2) 노인에 대한 사회복지사의 태도는 평균 65.5점으로서 산술적으로 중간인 63.0점(최하 $1{\times}21$=21점과 최고 $5{\times}21$=105점) 보다 약간 긍정적이며, 대다수의 선행연구 결과에서 나타난 간호사의 부정적인 태도와는 차이가 있었다. (3) 노인에 대한사회복지사의 태도에 통계적으로 유의하게 영향을 미치는 요인은 사회복지사의 노화사실 인지정도(p<0.001), 노인과 동거경험(p<0.001), 노인대상 자원봉사경험(p<0.05)으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 연구결과에 기초하여 노인에 대한 사회복지사의 태도를 긍정적인 방향으로 유도할 수 있는 방안을 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.

Like all other European countries, as a result of gradual industrialization, Germany is just before the start of new social system; the so-called 'aged society'. Over half of the century, Germany focused their welfare system on facilities. However, with the start of the new 'aged society', they introduced a new concept which consists mainly on home care and community care. These new concepts resulted from the general idea that even elderly have the right to live an independent quality life. Therefore, to satisfy the elderly with such life it has been seen as necessary not only to offer them efficient protection but to introduce an economical welfare system and facility scheme. The regional integration plan for welfare is one of the open schemes in which the lifestyle of the elderly are seen as the whole. Participated by several members and specialists of all social standings, necessary facilities are planned. By looking into a project example carried out in Germany, this study is aimed to increase the quality of the elderly welfare system and facility construction plan.

Living arrangement is considered an important variable in discussing loneliness and the psychological state of the elderly. From this point of view, this study aimed at Identifying the effects of living arrangements, sociodemographic variables, social activities, and social psychological variables on the psychological loneliness of the rural elderly. Though hierarchical regression analyses. the predictors of loneliness among the rural elderly were identified as single/co-residence living arrangement(r=.49), sense of well-being based on respects for others' perspectives (r: -.22), needs for remarriage (r=.22), and work hours during off- farming season (r: -.19). The effects of living arrangement remained strong and were not influenced by the addition of sociodemographic variables, social activity variable, and social psychological variables. The feeling of loneliness of the elderly who were living alone was higher than among the elderly who were living with someone else. This finding suggests that the loneliness of the rural elderly derives primarily from the lack of family Interaction. Therefore, it is recommended that social welfare policies for the rural elderly be designed to improve their family and social interactions.

The elderly have higher potential for contracting chronic diseases and suffering from development of a complication. Also, the extended old age period leads the elderly to demand more medical services. All those facts indicate that the elderly need more medical services than any other age groups. Consequently, medical care for the elderly with chronic diseases causes high costs burden. However, there is few studies researching the financial burden of chronic illness of the elderly. This study aimed to 1) understand how much the elderly with chronic diseases pay for medical expenses; 2) find out some specific factors related to health care financial burden; 3) suggest the alternative policies to decrease excessive financial burden of caring for the elderly with chronic illness. National Health and Nutrition Survey, which was surveyed by the Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs in 1998, was used in this study. 4,707 persons with chronic diseases out of 5385 persons over age 60 were selectively sampled. Using SPSSWIN, correlation analysis, T-test, ANOVA and Regression were used as statistical methods in this study. Stepwise multiple regression was employed to analyze the data with a ratio of health care expenditure to income(financial burden) as a dependent variable. Out of Korean old people, 87% had the chronic diseases and their health care financial burden rate showed the average of 17.9%, which meaned they expended almost 20% income to buy medical services. The variables having a great influence on financial burden were monthly income, activity, limitation and single household of an old person. The excessive financial burden was experienced by people who had more than 4 activity limitations(37.1%) and were in the lowest Income level(32.6%), and single household of an old person(31.4%). The new policies should be considered to 1) reduce the financial burden in these groups and to develop the sliced medical cost system considering the characteristics of chronic illness and income level; and 2) develop the medical management system to care for the elderly with chronic illness.

본 연구는 노인일자리사업이 노인의 사회적 자본 변화에 어떠한 영향력을 미치는지 규명하여 노인일자리사업의 효과성을 사회적 자본 변화를 통해 평가하고자 하였다. 노인일자리사업에 참여한 노인 중 사회적 자본이 변화하였을 때, 사회적 자본의 변화를 유형별로 나누어 참여노인의 인구사회학적 특성과 노인일자리사업 특성을 변화유형별로 비교해 보았다. 이는 노인일자리사업 참여가 노인 삶을 변화시키는데 직 간접적인 역할을 할 것이라는 실증적 자료를 제공할 수 있다. 노인일자리사업에 참여한 노인 중 사회적 자본이 변화하였을 때, 생활상의 어려움에 있는 노인층에서 사회적 자본 중 신뢰, 관계망, 사회참여가 모두 증가하였고, 노인일자리사업 참여가 생활상의 어려움을 가진 노인층에게 사회적 자본 증가의 효과를 주는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 이들 사회적 자본 중 노인 일자리사업에 참여한 노인은 신뢰가 가장 많이 증가하였다. 특히 생활상의 어려움에 있는 노인층과 생계비를 벌기 위해 참여한 노인층에서 사회적 자본 중 신뢰, 관계망, 사회참여가 모두 증가한 것을 볼 수 있으며, 노인일자리사업이 생활상의 어려움을 가진 노인층에게 사회적 자본 변화의 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 모든 일자리유형에서 사회참여는 상승하였고, 생계를 위해서 참여한 노인층이나 생활상의 어려움이 있는 노인층에서 특히 사회참여가 증가하였다. 짧은 참여기간 동안의 조사로 나타난 결과이기도 하지만, 궁극적으로 노인의 노동참여를 통한 사회참여는 보호적 시장에서 이루어지는 것이 효과적이었다고 볼 수 있다.

본 연구의 목적은 이야기성에 주목한 생애사연구를 위해 남성노인의 생애사를 재구성하는 데에 있다. 이에 해당 생애사를 내러티브-생애사 인터뷰 분석방법에 따라 재구성한 결과, 이야기된 생애사는 '독자로서의 의무가 이끄는 삶으로 엮여 들어가 "독자 행세" 를 하지 않을 수 없었던 삶' 이라는 생애사적 관점에 따라 구성되고 있는 반면, 체험된 생애사는 '자기주도적인 삶의 의지' 를 관철시키는 삶을 살아온 것으로 구성되는 차이가 있음을 조절메커니즘에 의거해 도출하였다. 그리고 이러한 양 생애사 간 차이는 생애사적 자기평가와 생애사적 실재성 간에 괴리가 있음을 의미하는 것으로 해석하였다. 이러한 결과에 의거해, 이야기성에 주목한 생애사연구가 노인복지실천과 노인복지학 분야 생애사연구 방법에 함의하는 점을 논의하였다.
