소방공무원은 가장 위험한 직업 중 하나이다. 하지만 기존의 논문들에서는 위험유발 요인에 대해 직접적인 사고원인으로서만 접근하는 경향이 있었으며, 그 분류에 있어서도 논리적이지 못하였다. 본고에서는 소방공무원을 둘러싼 위험 유발 요인들은 제도적 요인, 문화적 요인, 그리고 개인적 경험으로 분류하였다. 제도적 요인으로는 교육에 관한 부분과 작업환경에 관한 부분으로, 문화적 요인들은 성과지향적 문화와 배려지향적 문화로, 개인적 사고경험은 자신과 동료의 사고를 포함한 조직구성원의 사고경험과 기타 일반 희생자의 사고경험으로 나뉜다. 근무환경의 적정성과 관련해서는 특히 열악하게 인식하고 있었다.

Unlike previous studies, which mainly analyzed factors affecting tourism motivation and tourism satisfaction, this study analyzes the political, economic and cultural factors affecting the number of Chinese tourists visiting Korea. Empirical results show that political factors such as the Chinese regime, the number of meetings and talks between Korea and China, the number of phone calls between the two countries, and the Korea-China FTA (also as a economic factor) have a significant impact on the number of Chinese tourists visiting Korea. In particular, political friendly variables related to economy (ex. Korea-China FTA) has been analyzed to have a more significant positive effect on the number of Chinese tourists to Korea than the factors that create friendly atmosphere only in the political field. In addition to political factors, economic factors such as the Korea-China FTA, and cultural factors such as Korean Wave represented by Korean cosmetics also have a significant impact on the number of Chinese tourists visiting Korea.

For the purpose of the study, authors conducted focus group interviews and conferences with human service workers to draw the concept of cultural competency. Further, this study conducted to two separate pilot tests with 20 social workers with practice experiences in order to clarify descriptions and relevance of scale items. Based on the literature review on the concept of cultural competency and analysis of focus group interviews, 40 items were initially constructed and then were reduced to a 32-item scale after two separate pilot studies. Meantime, suggestions made by an advisory group were also reflected in the scale development process. Finally, one hundred ninety four workers in social service agencies were recruited to evaluate the relevance of the scale items in a 5 point Likert scale. Through exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, 4 main factors were identified: 1) competency to use culturally relevant skills, 2) cultural awareness and sensitivity, 3) cultural knowledge, and 4) efforts to overcome cultural differences. These factors were consistent with sub-concepts of cultural competency in other studies. Confirmatory factor analysis also showed that the model fitness was at the high level and convergent analysis with the similar scale also showed high correlations. Internal consistency also remained at a high level. Based on the results, implication for social work practice and education were discussed.
