아동비만은 성인비만으로 이어지기 쉬우며, 비만아동은 자신의 신체에 대해 열등감을 가지며 자아존중감이 낮고 우울한 경향이 많다. 국내의 경우 주로 의사와 영양사를 중심으로 비만관리 프로그램이 이루어지고 있고 효과도 평가되고 있으나, 본 연구는 아동의 생활습관 개선에 의한 체중감량을 목표로 한 종합적 프로그램의 개발이 필요하다고 인식하여 선행 연구에서 비만아동의 의생활, 식생활, 신체적ㆍ심리적 특성 등을 분석하였다.(중략)

The authors aimed to identify the patterns of mutual support between aged parents and their adult offsprings and to analyze the demographic and social characteristics of each pattern and the quality of living for the aged parents. The data of the study were drawn from the 2008 Survey of the Living Conditions and Welfare for the Elderly published by the Ministry of the Health and Welfare. The sample of our analysis was 14,843 aged persons with their adult offsprings. A cluster analysis produced four types of mutual support patterns: High mutual supporters, parents as beneficiaries, parents as benefactors, ans low mutual supporters, with parents as benefactors as the most frequent pattern of mutual support. The study showed that the group of high mutual supporters was highest in the quality of life while the group of parents as beneficiaries lowest. This findings imply that the support relationship between old people and their adult offsprings may undergo transformation towards a two-way relation of mutual support.
