The purpose of this study is to analyze the correlation between walking time and lifespan across individuals of various ages and weights to validate the health benefits of walking exercise. The research utilized Python and related libraries to collect and preprocess data, and then analyzed the relationship between walking time and lifespan using Pearson's correlation coefficient. The study was conducted over a period of six months. The analysis results showed a trend towards increased lifespan with longer walking times, which was similarly observed in data using vitamin B2 and folate intake as surrogate variables. These findings suggest that walking exercise may have a positive impact on health and lifespan, and can be used as foundational data for the development of personalized health management services and related policy formulation.

사람들은 일반적으로 건강증진에 대해 오랜 기간이 소요되는 무형의 이익 효과보다는 소요되는 금전적, 시간적 비용 투자를 보다 크게 생각하는 경향이 있다. 행동경제학(bahavioral economics)에서는 이러한 경향을 현재우선편견(present-biased preference)이라고 정의하고 있다. 사람들은 의사결정 과정에서 미래의 비용과 이득보다는 현재 상황에서 발생하는 비용과 이득에 보다 큰 비중을 둔다는 것이다. 아러한 편견은 미래에 발생할 수도 있는 심각한 건강문제로 겪게 되는 막대한 비용요인보다 현재의 흡연에 따른 즉각적인 정신적 쾌감이나 당장의 즉각적인 즐거움을 보다 우선시하는 상황을 설명해준다. 대부분의 사람들은 측정가능하고 눈으로 당장 확인활 수 있는 이득에 대해 보다 쉽게 동기부여가 이뤄진다는 것이다. 따라서 이 때 주어지는 경제적 인센티브는 당장의 건강증진 행위를 실천하는데 소요되는 금전적, 시간적 비용부담을 줄여주는 효과를 제공활 수 있다.

Objectives: The purposes of this study were to describe comprehensive health promotion policies for university students in Korea and to discuss the implications based on the socio-ecological approaches. Methods: A web-based search was performed to identify empirical programs and literature to develop health promotion policies and strategies in university settings. Results: Five domains for policy development are suggested for comprehensive health promotion policies in universities: evidence-based policy development; establishment of supportive policy through network and partnership; infrastructure of university; systems approach with education, environment, enforcement and policy tailored for universities; and sustainability for policy implementation. Conclusions: For healthy universities and students, government, community, health professionals, organizations and universities are all responsible as main agents for the five domains suggested in this study. Multi-level approaches with political, organizational and environmental changes should be sustained as an ongoing process.

This study aimed to examine the multiple factors to affect the health conservation in the middle aged women. The subjects were 143 middle aged women from 40 to 59 years old and the data collection period was from June 1 to 25, 2016. The data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression. We found a significantly positive association between health conservation and health promotion behaviors among middle-aged women. However, menopausal symptoms and wisdom were not significantly associated with health conservation. Stepwise multiple regression analysis was performed to analyze the most correlation variables were health enhancement behaviors with 12.5% and existence of spouse with 3.2%. This study provides more ensured fundamental data for the health conservation and enhancement in the middle aged women.

An analysis of the Convergence structural model on well-dying awareness has been conducted with a sample of 769 retired seniors who are participating in sports activities, and the results are as follows; First, after testing the goodness-of-fit of our structural model on well-dying awareness among retired seniors participating in sports activities, the final model was a good fit with physical care, which is a sub-variable of health promotion behaviors, and physical wellness, which is a sub-variable of wellness, used as covariates. Second, as a result of influence verification, the structural model showed six paths in total: resocialization${\rightarrow}$well-dying awareness, resocialization${\rightarrow}$health promotion behaviors, resocialization${\rightarrow}$wellness, health promotion behaviors${\rightarrow}$wellness, health promotion behaviors${\rightarrow}$well-dying awareness, and wellness${\rightarrow}$well-dying awareness.

This study aimed to confirm the effect of social support, self-efficacy, and job stress of clinical nurses on health promoting behaviors. The subjects of this study were 345 clinical nurses with more than 6 months of experience working at three general hospitals located in G city. Collected data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and multiple regression analysis using SPSS 26.0 program. As a result, the prediction factors influencing health promoting behaviors were social support(𝛽=.36, p<.001), self-efficacy(𝛽=.35, p<.001), job stress(𝛽=-.09, p=.018), having breakfast four times a week or more(𝛽=.20, p<.001), and perceived health status is good(𝛽=.20, p=.001) or average(𝛽=.20, p<.001). And the explanatory power on health promoting behaviors from these variables was 49%(F=26.57, p<.001). Therefore, it is necessary to reflect programs and policies to improve the health promoting behaviors of clinical nurses.

This paper is to suggest policy issues to be done in the future health policy for the elderly, analyzing contents of results suggested in academic papers published in Journal of the Korean Gerontological Society. Number of Papers published in the Journal is 61, occupying most of papers related with chronic disease, medical expenditures and health delivery system except dental and psychiatric health. Method used to be analyzed is mostly random sampling among community inhabitants or hospital patients. Policy issues are as follows in case of being based in the above analysis results. Firstly, it is necessary that the development of health promotion specialized for the elderly be developed and activated. Secondly, it is necessary that the primary health care system specialized for the elderly be constructed. Thirdly, it is necessary that the subacute care system specialized for the elderly be constructed after acute care services. Finally, it is necessary that the health care system specialized for the elderly in need of long-term care be constructed also.

In this paper, we propose antecedent factors that influence health promotion behaviors among rural older adults by gender. The study analyzed data from the 'Need Assessment Survey for the Development of Customized Care Programs for Rural Older Adults' conducted by the Rural Development Administration. The analysis utilized data from 502 individuals aged 65 and older residing in rural areas. The analysis method used SPSS 25.0 program to conduct descriptive statistics, chi-square analysis, correlation analysis, and hierarchical regression analysis. The analysis results showed differences between men and women in practicing health promotion behaviors. For men, lower age, lower education level, living with a spouse, and participating in social activities were associated with higher levels of health promotion behaviors. For women, older age, better self-rated health status, and participating in social activities were associated with higher levels of health promotion behaviors. This study provides baseline data to promote health promotion behaviors among rural older adults according to gender and suggests policy and practical implications based on the findings.
