  • The student hall and its convenient facilities are hot-core space for various student activities in university campus. It has been for most of the student a place of sweet memories and romance imprinted by a positive image of a cozy atmosphere of unique eating establishments or student hectic activities that used to take place. However, it is questionable whether that facilities are open for all of the students and other users including the handicapped. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate student convenient facilities and to provide an improvement guideline for the wellbeing of students and other users, based on universal design concept. For that purpose, eight universities were selected for an investigation and 81 survey items were developed based on universal design concept; supportive, adaptable, accessible, and safety-oriented design. The analysis found that accessibility to main entry areas, main entry doors, stairs, and handicapped parking were positively evaluated, while information system for handicapped, handicapped public bath, and corridors lacked some notion of supportive and accessible design. Finally the study suggested some useful planning and design guidelines for an extensive and precise application of universal design concept.

  • The purpose of this study was to construct a grounded theory as the basis for developing future nursing interventions by describing and analyzing the holistic lives of the physically handicapped adolescents. The subjects were 10 physically handicapped adolescents who were attending a rehabilitation school located in Kyunggi region and could understand and respond to the questions. The aim and purpose of the study were explained to the subjects, and only those who accepted to participate in the study were selected as the actual study subjects. The study data were collected from July to November 2000. The investigators provided detailed explanations to the subjects about keeping the anonymity of the subjects name and confidentiality of the information provided by the study subjects. The subjects received in-depth interviews by the investigators. Each interview took about 40 minutes to 1 hour and 30 minutes, and each subject received interviews with the range of one to 3 times. All interviews were recorded under the permission of the subjects. The investigators formed field notes after finishing each interview. In the process of data analysis, 'realizing the difficulty due to physical handicap' was found to be the causal condition, whereas' acceptance of physical handicap' was identified as the context. Then, we identified' awaring as the valuable being' as the core phenomenon, 'support from family and social group and spiritual help' as the intervening condition, 'effort for adaptation' as the strategy, and' finding the meaning of life' as the consequence. Through the theoretical model derived from this study, an important aspect the lives of physically handicapped adolescences was identified that' awaring as the valuable being' help them cope better and find the meaning of life in spite of suffering they experience.

  • This study is aimed to personally measure the body of physically handicapped women and compare the measurements to the results of the fifth project to investigate the measurements of the body of Koreans, identity the differences in the measurements in accordance with the subjects' handicap types and age, and find the characteristics of their physical figures, with a view to propose basic data for developing clothes suitable to the body of physically handicapped people. The findings of this study are summarized in the following: 1. There were significant differences in the measurements of the subjects' shoulder width, breast circumference, waist circumference, hip circumference, armpit circumference, left and right upper arms' circumference, length between front walls of the armpit, and length between back walls of the armpit after the subjects' handicap types were classified into paralysis of the lower half of the body, cerebral apoplexy, cerebral palsy, and amputation and the differences in the subjects' bodily measurements were compared and analyzed. 2. The shoulder width gradually increased for those in their 50s or younger while that of those in 60s or older is almost the same as that of those in their 30s. The waist circumference gradually increased in all the subjects. As a result, the present author concludes that the body of physically handicapped women increases the same way as the body of ordinary adult women does in its circumferential measurements as the subjects grow older.

  • This study was designed to develop and test a structural model for maternal adaptation and family stress in families with mentally handicapped children. A hypothetical model was constructed on the basis of the family stress theory developed by McCubbin etc. The model included 6 theoretical concepts and 11 paths. For the purpose of the model testing, empirical data were collected from May to August, 1992. The subjects of the study constituted 190 mothers of children in five special schools and one private institute in Seoul and Choong Nam. An SPSS PC+ and PC-LISREL 7.13 computer programs were used for descriptive and covariance structure analysis. The results of the study were as follows. (1) The hypothetical model showed itself a good fit to the empirical data [Chi - square=18.35(df=7, P=0.005), Goodness of Fit Index=0.991, Adjusted Goodness of Fit Index=0.959, Root Mean Square Residual=0.042), Non Normed Fit Index=0.90, Normed Fit Index=0.96]. (2) The results of Hypothesis testing indicated : 1) Social support(${\gamma}$$_{11}$=.238, T=2.352), Family functioning(${\gamma}$$_{12}$=.729, T=5.957) and Family life event stress(${\gamma}$$_{13}$=.125) had direct effects on situational definition. 2) Life event stress(${\gamma}$$_{23}$=.319, T=3.872) had direct effects on the effect of the handicapped child on the family. Family functioning(${\gamma}$$_{22}$=-.245) and situational definition($\beta$$_{21}$=-.335, T=3.227) had direct effects on the effect of the handicapped child on the family. 3) Situational definition($\beta$$_{31}$=-.273, T=3.493), family life event stress (${\gamma}$$_{33}$=.124, T=2.169) and the effect of the handicapped child on the family($\beta$$_{32}$=.264, T=-3.227) showed the direct effect on the maternal adaptation. The model was supported by the empirical data. Thus it was suggested that the model could be applied to family nursing care with the families with the mentally handicapped. The construction and testing of the comprehensive model seem to be the first trial in Korea.a.a.a.

  • 고령인구 및 장애인구가 증가함에 따라 평등하고 안전한 환경을 형성하기 위한 유니버설 디자인의 중요성이 더욱 부각되고 있다. 특히 문화체험에 대한 욕구가 증대되어 국가적 차원에서 문화공간에 대한 투자와 구축이 활발하게 진행되고 있으나, 사회적 약자들은 공공시설에서 문화체험을 하기에는 제한적 요소가 많다. 이러한 요소를 분석하기 위해 공공문화공간인 박물관 구축 환경을 시각장애인과 비장애인의 측면에서 현황조사 및 사용 평가 분석을 시행하였다. 문헌연구를 통해 유니버설 디자인의 개념과 원리를 이해하고 기존의 평가요소를 분석하여 재분류하였다. 분석된 평가요소를 기준으로 국내 박물관을 평가한 결과 시각장애인의 박물관 관람을 위한 정보 및 환경, 서비스의 보완할 점을 파악하고 개선방향을 도출하였다. 본 연구는 이러한 사회적 약자를 배려하고 모두가 쾌적하게 활동할 수 있는 환경 구축을 위한 평가요소와 개선방향을 제안하고자 한다.
