패션잡지에 실린 패션 및 뷰티 관련 상품의 광고들은 현시대의 미의 이상을 제시하고, 상품소비를 통해 이를 성취할 수 있음을 제안함으로써 신체와 관련한 미적 상징성을 보여준다. 본 연구의 목적은 신체수정을 위한 상품의 특성과 상징적 의미를 확인하는 데 있으며, 이를 위해 여성잡지 Vogue와 남성잡지 GQ 광고 중 화장품과 바디케어 용품 광고를 선정하여, 이를 신체의 특성, 즉 색상, 볼륨과 비율, 형태와 구조, 텍스쳐, 향의 측면에서 구분하여 조사하였다. 그 결과, Vogue와 GQ 모두 다양한 종류의 신체수정을 위한 상품광고를 선보이고 있었으며, 상대적으로 Vogue가 GQ보다 더 많은 양과 종류의 상품 광고를 보이고 있었다. 신체의 특성에 따른 상품의 비중을 보면, Vogue는 신체의 색상과 관련한 시각적인 면이 높게 나타났고. 반면, GQ는 신체의 골격과 형태미, 볼륨과 비율, 그리고 향과 같은 덜 시각적인 면에서의 상품비중이 높았으며, 텍스쳐와 관련한 상품은 비슷한 비율로 나타났다. 이들 상품광고의 텍스트와 이미지에서 보이는 특성은 다기능성. 자연성, 개별성으로 구분할 수 있으며, 세계적 미의 추구, 젊음과 건강 이데올로기, 젠더 무경계화라는 상징적 의미를 내포하고 있다.

The purpose of this study is to understand Korean women in later life by identifying the relationships between providing care for grandchildren and the health of women who aged above 50 years old. Focusing on the longitudinal patterns of providing care of grandchildren and physical and psychological health, this study used data from the second, third, fourth, and fifth waves of Korean Retirement and Income Study(KReIS) and regression to analyze the data. The following results were found. First, women who stopped providing care for grandchildren were more likely to have higher physical health status in later life than those who providing no care between the second wave to the fourth wave of the KReIS(p < .05). In addition, women who have continuously provided care for grandchildren were more likely to have lower physical health status at marginally significant level. However, there is no significant relationship between providing care for grandchildren and women's psychological health status. The findings of this study suggest that there are the different findings for the relationships between providing care for grandchildren and physical health status and psychological health status based on the longitudinal patterns of providing care of grandchildren. Lastly this paper discusses implications for future researcher and social welfare practitioners.

뇌졸중은 뇌에 혈액을 공급하고 있는 혈관이 막히거나 터져서 혈액 공급이 되지 않는 부분의 뇌가 손상되어 신체장애가 오는 질환이다. 이런 뇌졸중은 인구 고령화 및 만성질환의 증가로 인해 매년 환자 수가 증가하고 있고, 우리나라에서 사망원인 중 두 번째로 많은 원인을 차지하고 있다. 요즘처럼 날씨가 쌀쌀해지면서 기온이 낮아지면 혈관이 수축하고 혈류의 혈압이 증가하는 경우가 있어 뇌졸중 예방에 각별히 주의해야 한다.

우리 몸에 상처를 입었거나 상처를 입을 만한 상황에서 느끼는 유쾌하지 않은 감정까지 모두 통증의 범주에 포함된다. 잠재적인 손상을 알리는 통증 즉, 바늘에 찔리거나 불에 데이는 순간에 느끼는 것과 같은 일차적인 통증은 재빠른 회피반사를 일으켜 다가오는 더 큰 조직 손상을 미연에 방지하려는 조기경보시스템이라고 할 수 있다. 반면에 어쩔 수 없이 우리 몸이 손상을 입게 되면 통증은 반사적으로 근육 수축을 일으켜 신체를 움직이지 않게 한다. 골절상을 입었을 때의 통증처럼 움직이면 통증을 더 느끼게 되고, 움직이지 않아야 아프지 않고 뼈가 아물게 되는것이다. 이처럼 통증은 신체의 이상을 신속히 알리고 경고하는 중요한 방어기전 중의 하나이다.

This study examined the effect of job stress and mental health factors on the oral symptoms of caring service workers in Seoul. For the research method, a survey was conducted from July 24 to August 6, targeting 150 caring service workers. The survey items were job stress, mental health (physical symptoms, anxiety, and insomnia), and self-diagnosed oral symptoms. The results of the study were as follows. Job stress (p=0.001) had a significant effect on the oral symptoms. In addition, physical symptoms (p<0.001), anxiety symptoms (p<0.001), and insomnia symptoms (p<0.001) all had significant effects on the oral symptoms. Among the risk factors, physical symptoms had the greatest influence on oral symptoms. In addition, according to the correlation result of job stress, anxiety symptoms, insomnia symptoms, oral symptoms, as job stress increases, physical symptoms (p<0.001), anxiety symptoms (p<0.001), insomnia symptoms (p<0.001), oral symptoms (p<0.01) showed an increasing positive correlation and a statistically significant difference. Physical and psychological labor power is greatly exhausted by care service workers performing tasks that require physical and mental care for those who are being cared for. Therefore, there is a need for systematic expansion measures for the mental health of workers and the introduction of customized oral health education programs to improve oral health because improved health and oral health conditions can increase work performance.
