본 연구는 2005년도와 2010년도를 기준으로 우리나라 16개 시도 지역별, 성별, 65세의 기대여명을 산출하고, 인구주택총조사 10% 표본조사 중 활동장애 문항을 Sullivan 방법으로 우리나라의 16개 시도 지역별로 65세의 성별, 연도별 건강수명을 산출하여 기대여명과 건강수명의 변화 및 차이를 살펴보고, 2010년도의 65세의 건강수명과 관련요인과의 관련성을 이해하는데 목적이 있었다. 연구 결과 우리나라 65세 전체 인구집단 중에 기대여명은 2005년도 18.15세, 2010년도 19.75세, 건강수명은 2005년도 11.41세, 2010년도 11.64세로 증가하였다. 우리나라 65세 남자의 기대여명은 2005년도 15.80세, 2010년도 17.28세, 건강수명은 2005년도, 2010년도 각각 10.78세, 11.64세로 증가하였다. 65세 여자의 전국 기대여명은 2005년도 19.90세, 2010년 21.62세로 1.72세 정도 증가하였음을 알 수 있다. 건강수명은 기대여명과 달리 2005년도 11.88세, 2010년도에는 11.73세로 약간 감소하였다. 지역별로 65세 전체 기대여명이 제일 높은 지역은 모두 제주특별자치도이며, 건강수명이 제일 높은 지역은 서울특별시에서 제일 높았다. 지역별 65세 남자의 기대여명과 건강수명은 모두 서울특별시가 가장 높았다. 건강비율은 2005년 서울이 가장 높게 나타났으며, 2010년 충청남도가 가장 높게 나타났다. 65세 여자의 지역별 기대여명은 2005년도와 2010년도 모두 제주특별자치도가 제일 높았으며, 건강수명이 가장 높은 지역은 2005년도에는 서울특별시, 2010년도에는 충청남도로 나타났다. 65세 여자의 지역별 건강비율은 2005년도 서울특별시, 2010년도 충청남도가 가장 높았다. 상관분석 결과 65세의 건강수명은 기대여명과 인구밀도가 높은 지역과 평균기온, 인구천명당 병상수, 악성신생물 및 순환기계질환으로 인한 사망률이 낮은 지역일수록 건강수명이 긴 것으로 나타났다. 지역별 기대수명과 건강수명의 산출 및 비교는 그 지역의 보건 수준을 파악할 수 있고, 각 지역 사정에 맞춘 건강증진 목표설정 및 관련 정책마련의 지표로서 이용하는데 부족함이 없을 것이며, 이러한 지역별 기대수명 및 건강수명의 지역별 형평성 연구에도 사용될 수 있으므로 앞으로도 지속적인 산출 노력이 필요하다.
농촌사회의 당면한 문제는 농촌인구의 극소와 잔존인구의 성·연령별 인구구조의 왜곡에서부터 제기되므로 농촌인구의 변화추세를 검토하였다. 그리고 최근 군부로의 전입과 전출 인구를 비교하여 최근 농촌으로의 인구회귀현상의 실태를 분석하였다. 끝으로 농촌의 인구실태를 파악하기 위하여 실시한 농촌마을 조사자료를 분석하여 농촌으로 전입하는 인구의 영향을 밝혔고, 특성별 농촌마을의 장래를 예측하였다. 군부의 인구는 도시로의 인구전출이 지속되면서 젊은 연령층과 영유아의 인구구성비가 낮고 노인연령층이 두텁게 되었다. 산업화 이전단계인 1960년 군부의 0∼4세 인구구성비는 시부보다 높았으나 농촌인구의 도시전출이 누적되면서 1975년부터 시부보다 낮아졌다. 그러나 1995년의 군부 0∼4세 인구구성비가 6.2%로 5년전보다 상승하여 시부와 차가 감소되었다. 또한 1980년대 후반에 시부에서 군부로 이동하는 인구의 연령별 구성에서 20∼34세에 총이동인구의 51.8%가 집중되어 있었으며, 이들의 교육수준은 시부로의 전입인구보다 오히려 높았다. 이러한 사실은 농촌사회의 변화로 나타내게 될 것이다. 그러나 순수농촌마을이라고 할 수 있는 보은군의 농촌마을과 원래 농업중심 마을이었으나 최근에 급속히 변하고 있는 파주군의 근교농촌마을의 인구구조를 비교한 결과 최근의 농촌인구구조의 변화와 젊은 연령층의 군부로 전입하는 현상은 일부 농촌, 특히 근교농촌의 변화에 의한 현상이지 전체 농촌인구형상의 변화라고 할 수 없었다. 이들 마을 실태조사에서 밝혀진 마을 인구구조의 특성에서 우리는 산업화나 도시의 영향을 받지 않는 순수농촌마을은 거주민의 노령화가 극단적으로 진행되어 마을 자체의 존속이 어려워지는 반면에 근교 농촌마을은 농촌의 성격이 흐려지면서 도시화 내지 산업화가 진행되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 않는 임신, 성감염증, 그리고 인공유산 등의 위험으로부터 제대로 보호를 받아야 한다고 믿는다.보완하는 벤치마크 기능도 수행하기 때문이다.국의 대외 이미지 개선을 위한 적극적인 PR활동과 기업의 최고경영자 차원의 로비활동 추진으로 대미(對美)로비체제를 적극적이며 능동적으로 수행할 수 있도록 하여야 한다.였고, W.X 조국은 동쪽으로 265.2m, W.Y 조국은 북쪽으로 279.5m, 그리고 X.Y 조국은 북서쪽으로 224.3m 편위하여, Loran - C 위치가 GPS 위치보다 약 250m 더 편위 된 것을 알 수 있었다.경우 본 논문에서 계산한 각 침로교각에 대한 최소피항개시거리와 안전피항개시거리을 미리 염두해 두고 피항조선을 하게 되면, 감각에 의한 조선방법으로 야기되는 충돌해난사고를 지양 할 수 있으리라 사료된다.만도에 따른 유의적인 증가를 (p<0.05)보여주었으나 여자의 경우는 유의적인 차이가 없었다.

I. Introduction Since the 1970's drug abuse among young people has increasingly become a social problem in Korea. In the 1980's, drug abuse, especially glue sniffing, has become the cause of many unfortunated incidents resulting in harm to others as well as the abusers themselves. Taking into consideration of the seriousness of this problem, the Republic of Korea National Red Cross initiated a nation-wide research programme, to understand the present situation and to raise the level of public awareness. The goal of this research was to begin a nation - wide campaign against drug abuse. The research team was composed of the Advisary Committee members and the staff of the Youth Department of the Republic of Korea National Red Cross. The data were collected in February 1988 with the collaboration of the staff and volunteers in the local Chapters. The respondents were allocated nation-wide by the quota sampling method. The questionnaires were distributed to the respondents in three groups :2, 700 to junior and senior high school students, 605 to working youths, and 916 to delinquent youths. A total of 4, 221 questionnaires were collected. II. Characteristics of the Respondents The respondents in each group were selected evenly from rural and urban areas. The general characteristics of the respondents can be described as follow: in case of students, the proportions between male and female respondents, and between senior high school and junior high school students were almost evenly distributed. In case of working youths, the proportion of females (80.5%) was higher than those of the students and the delinquents groups. Delinquent youths were defined as those currently being under custody of the centers for juvenile delinquents. Of this number, 38.8% and 68.2% were junior and senior high school drop-outs respectively. The majority of them (92.6%) were male. As for the family background of the respondents, the proportion of those residing in poverty - stricken areas, and the proportion of those from broken families were higher in case of working youths and delinquent youths than those in case of students. III. Present Patterns of Drug Abuse The following summarizes the presents of drug abuse, as tabulated from the results of the survey. 1. Smoking The percentage of youths who smoke was 36% in the student group, 32% m the working youths group, and 94.4% in the delinquent youths group. 2. Alcohol 50.3% of students, 71.6% of working youths, and 93.3% of delinquent youths has experienced drinking alcohol beverages. 3. Tonic: non - alcoholic, caffeinated beverages popular in Korea and Japan The percentage of those who have used tonic at least once was over 90% in all of the three groups. 4. Sedative About 70% of each group has used sedative with the proportion of working youths use higher than those in other groups. 5. Stimulants Those who have used stimulants comprised around 15% in each group. 6. Tranquilizers Somewhat less than 5% of students and working youths, and 28% of delinquent youths, have used tranquilizers. 7. Hypnotics The users of hypnotics amounted to 0.4% of students, 2.6% of working youths and 7.1% of delinquent youths. 8. Marihuana Those who have used marihuana indicated 0.7% of students, 0.8% of working youths, and 13% of delinquent youths. 9. Glue-sniffing The percentage of glue-sniffing was 3.7%, 5% in the students group and in the youths group respectively, but the proportion was unusually high, at 40.7% in the delinquent youths group. From the results of the survey the present situation of drug abuse in Korea can be summarized as follows: 1. A high percentage of Korean youths have experienced smoking cigarettes and drinking alcoholic beverages. 2. Tonics (non - alcoholic, caffeinated beverages), antipyretic analgesics and stimulants quite regularly used. 3. Tranquilizers, hypnotics, marihuana and glue-sniffing are more widely used among delinquent youths than the other youths. From this fact, there exists a correlation between drug abuse and juvenile delinquency. IV. Time-series Analysis of the First Experience of Drug Abuse and Deviant Behaviour The respoundents were asked when they were first exposed to drugs and when they committed deviant acts. By calculating the average age of each experience, the following pattern was found (See Figure 1). Youths are first exposed to drugs by abuse of tonic(non - alcoholic, caffeinated beverages). At the age of 13, they amoke cigarettes, the use of antipyretic analgesics begins at 14 year old, while at the age of 15, they use tranquilizers, and at 16 hynotics. The period of drug abuse which starts from drinking caffeinated beverages and smoking cigarettes and ends in the use of hypnotics takes about three years. During this period, other delinquent behaviours begin to surface, that is, at the age of 13 when smoking cigarettes begins, the delinquent behaviour pattern starts with truancy. Next, they start taking money from others by using physical force. Prior to the age of 15, they are suspended from school, become hostile to adults, begin running away from home, and start using stimulants and alcohol. Soon they become involved even in glue-sniffing and in the use of marihuana. At the age of 15, they begin to see adult videos and carry weapons. Sexual promiscuity and usage of tranquilizers follows the viewing of adult videos. Consequently, by the time they reach the age of 16, they visit drinking establishments, and are picked up by police for committing delinquent acts. And finally, they come to use hypnotic - type drugs. From the above descriptions, drug abuse can be assumed to have a close correlation with delinquent behaviour. V. Social Factors Related to Drug Abuse As for the Korean youths, glue-sniffing is found to he related to aggressive delinquency, in such cases as run - aways, being picked up by the police, and taking money by force. Smoking cigarettes and drinking alcohol is found to be related to seeing adult videos and visiting drinking establishments. Hypnotics and marihuana were found to be representive of drugs which are related to degenerational delinquency, irrespective of social delinquency. The social factors connected with these drug abuse are as follows: 1. Individual factors Male students were more heavily involved in the usage of drug than females. Youths who do not attend church were more likely to be involved in drugs than those who attend. 2. Family factors The youths who were displeased with their mothers smoking and those who thought their parents did not love each other, or those whose parents had used drugs without prescription, were more likely to he drug users. 3. School factors Those youths who found school life boring, were unsuccessful in their studies, spend most of their time with friends, feel their teachers smoke too much, those who had a positive perception of their teachers smoking were likely to he drug users. To sum up, drug abusers depend on the influence of their parents, teachers and peers. IV. Reasons for Drug Abuse Korean students have mainly used drugs to release stress (42.8%), to stay awake (19.7%), and because of the easy accessibility of drugs( 16.6%). Other reasons are due to their ignorance of the side effects of the drugs (3.6%), natural curiosity (4.2%), and to increase strength(3.O%). From the above facts, the major reasons for drug abuse among Korean youths are to release stress and to stay awake in order to prepare exams. Furthermore, since drugs are readily available, we can conclude that drug abuse is caused by the school system(such as entrance exams) in Korea. VII. Conclusion Drug usage among Korean youths are relatively less common than those of western youths. In some cases, such as, glue-sniffing and use of stimulants, the pattern of drug abuse is found. Moreover, early drug abuse is evident, and it has a close connection with deviant behaviour, resulting in juvenile delinquency. Drug abuse cannot be attributed to any one social factor. Specifically, drug abuse depends on parents, peers, teachers and other members of the community, and also is influenced by social institutions such as the entrance exam system. Every person and organization concerned with youth must participate collectively in restraining drug abuse. Finally, it is suggested that social agencial working for youth welfare should make every effort to tackle this serious problem confronted by the Korean youths today.
