Purpose: This purpose of this study was to develop a disaster and safety practice measurement tool for elderly people in rural areas. Methods: The tool for this study was developed and validated according to DeVellis' scale development process. The construct validity of the instrument was analyzed by major analysis of Varimax rotation, and the internal inertia was verified by Cronbach's ⍺. Results: The final scale was a 4-point scale, consisting of 23 items in 7 domains. The total explanation was 54.1% and the Cronbach's ⍺ was .80. Conclusion: The results of this study should be useful to assess elders' perception of the importance of safety management for elders.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of smartphone use to enhance self-efficacy and decrease loneliness in elders through communication using the SNS Program Methods: Participants in this study were assigned to the experimental group (25) or control group (25). Data were collected from June 3 to July 12, 2019. For this study, the communication Program through SNS was run once for a total of 12 sessions. All data were analyzed using SPSS version 18.0 program, 𝑥² test, t-test, Repeated Measure ANOVA and Fisher's exact test. Results: It was found that H1 was supported (z=-4.12, p=.005) as "the experimental group participating in the communication Program through SNS had greater self-efficacy than the control group". H2 was supported as "the experimental group participating in the communication Program through SNS had less loneliness than the control group", (z=3.20, p<.001). Conclusion: This basic information may be used as an intervention on communication Program through SNS. Findings suggest the necessity of improving self-efficacy and reduction of loneliness through an intervention communication Program through SNS.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect on depression and self-esteem in elders taking part in the Magma healing program. Methods: This study was a single group pre-post quasi-experimental design. The participants were elders over 60 who had complained of depression more than once within the last 3 months, and who were living in the jurisdiction of a health clinic in the 3-area of Chungnam. Data from 14 elders who participated in the Magma healing program were analyzed using nonparametric paired t-test with SPSS 25.0. Results: The study results showed that the Magma healing program had statistically significant results in reducing depression (z=-2.91, p=.004) and improving self-esteem (z=-2.91, p=.004) in elders. Conclusion: The Magma healing program has been proven to be a very useful program to reduce depression in elders and promote self-esteem, thereby integrating their lives and leading to successful aging.
