Purpose: We developed and tested the effects of a care program for dementia patients among community- dwelling older adult men. Methods: This study used a non-equivalent control group pre-and post-test design. To verify the effectiveness of the care program for dementia patients, 26 community dwelling older adult men participated in this study. We used multiple intervention strategies including improving understanding of dementia through education, activities for dementia prevention, and promoting psychological change. In particular, based on the current understanding of the care of the men older adults, we used strategies to promote motivation and reinforce strengths. Results: After completing the 6-week intervention program, when compared with the control group, older adult men in the care program intervention group showed significant differences in scores for the following: cognitive functions (p=.035), attitude toward dementia (p=.026), preventive behavior (p=.007), geriatric depression (p=.013), caring confidence (p=.018), and self-esteem (p=.013). Conclusion: These results indicate that the care program for dementia patients has positive effects on increasing their cognitive function, attitude toward dementia, preventive behavior, caring confidence, self-efficacy, and on decreasing depression rates in this population. Based on this, we can recommend this program to men caregivers for the improved care of dementia in community centers.

This paper overviews the historical background and development of applied nutrition and community nutrition in Korea. The nutrition studies in the early years focused on animal experiments, human metabolism, and food analysis and therefore were limited to classrooms and research laboratories in universities without spreading into the lives of people. Korean specialists trained through the UN International Course of Applied Nutrition initiated the Applied Nutrition Program (ANP) in Korea in the 1960s. The ANP in Korea was effectively implemented until 1986 with support from UNICEF, FAO, and WHO as a national project to improve the nutrition and health of rural residents. With economic development and urbanization in Korea, the rural-focusing ANP was re-born to a more extended version with the name of "Community Nutrition", targeting the nutrition and health of the entire Korean population. Scholarly associations including the Korean Society of Community Nutrition established in 1995 have significantly contributed to the development of Community Nutrition in Korea and are expected to continue to work for a better connection between nutrition and health promotion.

한국의 산촌개발사업은 의제21(Agenda 21) 13장의 지속가능한 산지개발(SMD, Sustainable Mountain Development)과 국토 균형발전을 도모하기 위하여 전국토의 45.9%를 점유하고 있는 산촌마을을 대상으로 1995년부터 시범적으로 시작되었다. 이후 도별 확대사업과 함께 관련 법률 및 제도 정비를 통하여 산촌주민의 삶의 질 향상과 행복 제고를 목적으로 현재 진행 중이다. 본 연구는 2003년 현재 사업 완료된 59개 산촌개발마을과 조성중인 15개 산촌개발사업마을의 사업내용에 대하여 산촌개발의 핵심 이해관계자인 산촌주민과 지방자치단체 공무원의 의견을 비교분석하여 사업만족도를 분석하고 향후 지역사회 개발사업으로서 산촌개발 사업의 추진방향을 제시하고자 수행되었다. 산촌개발사업은 지역사회 개발사업이 일반적으로 추구하는 주민의 자발적 참여와 민주시민으로의 자립정신확립, 소득증진 기반조성, 쾌적한 생활환경의 창조, 타 지역과의 균형발전 등 여러 측면에서 긍정적인 성과가 나타났다. 특히 마을주민과 지방자치단체의 기대가 큰 소득증대 기반조성과 해적한 마을환경 기반구축을 통한 정주기능 증진효과에 대하여는 이해관계자 모두가 만족하는 성과가 도출되었다. 그러나 산촌개발사업을 통한 산촌마을의 지역사회유지 및 전통적인 가치체계 강화는 만족한 수준에 달하지 못하고 있다. 또한 지속적인 소득증진효과를 도모하기 위한 지역 특성에 알맞은 소득 작목 개발과 기술 보급, 지역특산물 개발 유통개선도 필요한 실정인데, 지방 자치단체의 적극적이며 다각적인 활동이 요구된다. 또한 산촌개발계획 초기부터 지방자치단체와 산촌주민이 공동 참여하는 산촌개발사업방식의 도입과 관련 지방행정조직과 1차 산업 단체의 혁신은 산촌개발사업의 지속성 유지를 위하여 바람직하다. 또한 산촌개발이 장기적으로 타 지역개발과의 균형 유지를 위한 종합개발 계획 수립, 산촌마을 네트워크 구성과 정보교환, 산촌개발사업 사후 시설관리, 산촌마을개발협의회 구성 등 산촌개발사업의 핵심요소인 지도인력의 양성과 교육은 중앙정부의 주도적인 지원을 요구한다. 향후 산촌관련 이해관계자를 고려한 발전 방안 수립은 지역사회개발계획의 일환으로 산촌개발사업 성공 가능성을 증가시킬 것이다.
