The aim of this study was to investigate how the psychological factors of human interrelation or human socialization are associated with the visual design based on sociological and psychological theories. To accomplish this goal, human socialization was examined on the basis of physiology, philosophy, and psychology. Then a case study was employed to assess how they function in the area of visual design. In literature, the sources of psychological factors of human socialization were categorized into 11 items including the sexual hedonic pursuit. These items were used for the evaluation of 40 printed media advertisements, all of which were the winners of the Korea Advertising Awards from 1994 to 2003. As a result, it was revealed that most advertisements responded to the items of adaptive value and cultural imprinting as biological bases. Also, it was discovered that the existential foundation of advertising has been based on mutual distrust and the payoff matrix as a mind of social unrest. In conclusions, it was illustrated that future advertising will remain based on adaptive value, cultural imprinting, social learning, and imitation learning, as long as advertising continue to hold its reason for existence.

본 환자를 간호하면서 절단으로 인해 신체적 고통을 받고 있는 존재로서, 생각과 정서, 욕구를 지닌 존재로서의 환자를 돕고자 시도해 보았다. 신체적인 적응을 돕기 위해서 근력강화와 관절가동역증진, 통증조절, 보조기 착용을 위한 단단의 관리, 잔여관절의 변형예방에 중점을 두었다. 심리적인 적응을 돕기 위해서 환자가 절단 수술과 수술 후 변화된 신체외모를 수용하는 과정을 증시했다. 끝으로 사회적인 면에서는 의미있는 사람들의 집단속에서 존재하는 인간으로서의 환자에게 관심을 두었다. 환자의 우측 슬관절 가동역은 완전히 회복된 상태는 아니지만 목발을 이용하여 걷거나 기타 일상생활을 하는데 불편함은 없으며 앞으로 계속적인 노력을 통해 회복될 수 있을 것이다. 그의 좌측 고관절 가동역은 정상유지되고 있으며 절단부위는 보조기 착용에 적합하게 형성되어 가고 있다. 비슷한 처지에 있는 이씨환자의 도움과 환자의 독립적인 생활태도는 환자가 자신의 불구에 적응하고 일상생활에 적응하는데 많은 도움이 되었다. 협조적이고 동정적인 환자들과 의료진의 도움으로 환자는 보호된 병원환경내에서 신체적 제한점을 주목하고 자신의 불구에 적응하면서 타인들과 원만한 관계를 유지해 왔다. 그는 앞으로 사회에 돌아가서 생활하게 될 것이다. 우리 사회는 아직도 그들에 대해 편견을 가지고 있으며 직업적 교육적 의료치료적 배려가 부족한 상태이다. 사회속에서의 적응은 병원에서의 적응보다 훨씬 더 어려울 것이며 때로는 그를 좌절하게 할 것이다. 그의 신체적 결함이 자기 자신만의 책임은 아니며 어느 누구나 사고에 희생될 가능성은 있다. 사회인들이 그들에게 관심있고 수용적인 태도를 지니고 그들의 정상 요구와 인간으로서 동등하게 살아갈 권리를 인정하고 받아들인다며 좀더 쉽게 자신의 슬픔을 극복할 수 있을 것이다.

Purpose: To describe psychosocial adjustment of low-income Koreans who have cancer. Methods: Data were collected during 2008 using individual in-depth interviews with 18 Korean people with cancer. The income status of the participants was low, 11 were recipients of the National Basic Livelihood Protection program. Mean age was 58.3 yr and 11 were female. Five participants had stomach cancer, five, colorectal cancer, and four, breast cancer. Data were analyzed using grounded theory methodology. Results: The core category emerged as 'bearing up alone with double suffering'. 'Poverty and cancer: A double suffering' emerged as a causal condition. The adjustment process consisted of three stages: 'forming a treatment will to live', 'practicing for the cure', and 'restructuring self and repaying favors'. Each stage indicated action-interaction strategies which were employed to bear up alone with double suffering during the illness process. Self-reflection, parental responsibility, and support from the public sector played important roles in overcoming the double suffering. Two types of consequences were identified: Transcended life and strained life suppressed by poverty and cancer. Conclusion: The results provide insights into the psychosocial adjustment process for low income Korean with cancer and can be used in developing and implementing efficient home-care services for these people.

This study aims to verify the mechanism of mediated effects for protective factor among the relations of risk factor, protective factor and psychology adaptation under risky situation as functionally deficient family, and to identify the protective factors that protects adolescents with high psychology adaptation level. To achieve these goals, descriptive statistic analysis, regression analysis and logistic-regression analysis were conducted using the 5th year data of the Korea Youth Panel Study (Junior high panel) surveyed in 2008 by National Youth Policy Institute. The study results first shows that the psychology adaptation level of adolescents who experienced functionally deficient family varies depending their self-esteem and attachment to school friends. Second, it was found that there are mediated effects in the impacts of functionally deficient family on psychology adaptation. Therefore, in social work field, it is advisable to focus on the process to mitigate the risk factors or to strengthen protective factors rather than focus on the risk factors of adolescents. With this method, the negative perception of adolescents exposed to risk factors can be changed as well as the way of intervention for supporting them.

The present research investigated and compared stress coping strategies of North Korean refugees with those of South Koreans in the purpose to predict and prepare psychological conflicts expected to occur during the Korean reunification. Adapted from Han, Hur, Chae, and Kim(2001), North Korean refugees recorded their coping strategies that they would employ in stressful situations varying in term of three aspects of stress causes - 2(locus: internal/external) × 2(stability: temporal/enduring) × 2(context: individual/interpersonal) - and the responses were classified in terms of three dimensions(active/passive, approach/avoidance, cognitive/affective/behavioral). In the temporal stress situations, adaptive North Korean refugees preferred active over passive, approaching over avoiding, and behavioral over cognitive/affective stress coping strategies more than maladaptive North Korean refugees did. Also, in the stressful situations caused by external causes, they were more likely to take active rather than passive, approaching rather than avoiding copying. Although active copying strategies were preferred to passive ones by adaptive North Korean refugees in individual stressful situations, approaching copying strategies were preferred to avoiding ones by them in interpersonal stressful situations. These findings were found to be different from the pattern of South Korean's stress coping strategies in the same situations. In conclusion, the differences were discussed in the view of psychological integration during Korean reunification.

This study aimed to present a comprehensive case management model which might be helpful for social workers in community social welfare agencies who works with North Korean refugees for their psychosocial adjustment in South Korea. After being constructed, the model was put into practice upon North Korean refugees. This article described the whole process of model construction and its application. Detail steps taken in this research include: (a) The researcher had 20 unstructured individual interviews with 11 North Korean refugees in order to identify psychosocial problems that need social workers' intervention; (b) Based upon the problems identified through interviews and previous literature review, program components were identified and sorted out into two phases, one of which is therapeutic phase, the other is case management phase; (c) By interlocking the two phases, the researcher proposed a comprehensive case management model whereby North Korean refugees can get psychosocial services as well as linkage services in an interactive fashion; (d) The utility of the proposed model was examined by using a couple of North Korean refugees who initially showed complicated psycho-social-economic problems. The therapeutic phase employed a cognitive-behavioral approach. The case management phase consists of: assessment and diagnosis; service planning and resource identification; linking of clients to needed services; monitoring of service delivery; and evaluation. Although the program could not go through with because of the limited contacts with North Korean refugees for security reasons, the program was turned out to be very useful in helping North Korean refugees' settling-down in South Korea. Implications for the application of the proposed model was discussed along with limitations of this study.
