Objectives: While the risk of depression is expected to substantially increase among older adults receiving community care, leisure life satisfaction can be regarded as a key component in enhancing the mental health of those receiving community care. However, it is not yet known whether community care utilization increases the risk of depression, or what role is played by leisure life satisfaction in these settings. This study investigated the relationship between community care utilization and depression, as well as the main effect and the moderating role of leisure life satisfaction on the link between community care utilization and depression among older adults. Methods: This study, using the 2019 Korean Welfare Panel Survey, conducted multiple regression analysis on data from 4494 elderly people aged 65 years or older. Results: After controlling for potential covariates, older community care recipients were more likely to report symptoms of depression than those who did not receive community care. Meanwhile, leisure life satisfaction was negatively associated with depression in older adults. The test for interaction between community care utilization and leisure life satisfaction revealed that leisure life satisfaction significantly attenuated the link between depression and community care utilization. Conclusions: The findings of this study imply that leisure life satisfaction could play a meaningful role in improving the mental health of older adults receiving community care. Welfare policies affecting older adults should consider leisure life satisfaction as an important resource for reducing depression in community care settings.

본 연구의 목적은 대구 동구 안심지역의 아띠도서관이 지역사회 공동체의 중심으로서의 역할을 수행해 나갔었던 과정을 탐색해봄으로써 지역사회에서의 작은도서관의 역할과 의미를 새롭게 인식하는데 있다. 연구목적 달성을 위해 아띠도서관 만들기모임 초기 구성원들을 중심으로 심층인터뷰를 진행하였으며 인터뷰자료는 질적분석 방법을 활용하여 분석하였다. 분석결과 아띠도서관은 지역사회에서 지역주민들 간의 인적네트워크가 공고해지고 확장되는 토대가 되었으며 지역주민들이 스스로 지역의 문제를 해결할 수 있다는 자신감을 가지게 함으로써 지역의 공동체가 성장하는데 핵심적 역할을 수행하였다. 지역의 작은도서관들은 단지 도서관으로서의 역할을 넘어 지역사회 공동체의 중심으로서의 역할 수행을 포함하여 자신들의 역할을 새롭게 정의할 필요가 있다 하겠다.

Purpose: This study was done to evaluate the operating status of community-based home health center for revitalization of the centers. Method: In this study performance data including organization plan and service utilization plan were evaluated according process theory. Target of evaluation was the community-based home health care center. Results: The vulnerable part of the organization was the information system and financial resources. The home health center introduced PDA (Personal Digital Assistants) in 2005, however home health care nurses did not make full use of it. This service received full support from Seoul city and local government and there were no other sources of income. The vulnerable part of service utilization was service expansion and standardization due to vulnerability of organizational aspects. Conclusions: The home health care center provides high quality services to underprivileged people. In the future, these services should be provided with equity for continuous health care for this population.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a community-based muscle and joint self-management program with muscle stretching and muscle strengthening exercises for community-dwelling older adults. Methods: The study was a pre-and-post design in a single group, which examined the effects after the intervention of muscle and joint self-management program for 6 weeks, on the 42 subjects of the elderly who registered in a Community Senior Center in J city. Data analyses were conducted with paired t-test by using a SAS (version 9.2 for Windows) program. Results: The effectiveness of muscle and joint self-management program on shoulder flexibility and right knee extension (flexibility) were significantly improved (t= 2.72, p= .010; t= -2.26, p= .029). Joint symptoms (pain, stiffness), physical functioning, depression, fatigue, and left knee extension were not significantly improved after the muscle and joint self-management program. Conclusion: The results showed the possibility of this 6-week exercise program in improving shoulder and knee flexibility for community-dwelling older adults.

The sample consisted of 568 mothers with children using day care center located at the city of Taegu and Dalsung Gun. Collected data were analyzed by frequency, Percentage, chi-square, t-test, chronbach's $\alpha$. The results are summerized as follows : 1. In mother's perception for the quality criteria of day care center, the mothers living in the large city perceived more importantly in staff qualifications, administration - evaluation, staff- parent/staff- child interaction, curriculum, staffing, physical environment nutrition, health and safty than mothers in rural community. 2. In the importance classified by domains of the quality criteria of day care center, there were statistically significant differences according to the variable of region in staff qualifications, staff-parent/staff-child interaction, curriculum, staffing, physical environment 3. Given the present situations (income, transportation, location of workplace, etc.), when mothers choose a day care center, generally, staff-parent/staff-child interaction was the most important factor.

Globalization has diversified ethnic composition thus increased the risk of conflicts and socio-political instability in global cities. However, still the status of community facility in a global city is unclear despite its critical role to build sustainable community in global era. In Seoul, as a reaction of globalization, 19 community facilities known as the 'Seoul Global Center' have been established since 2007 by Seoul Metropolitan Government. These facilities have started to provide basic foreigner services but been transformed to foreigner service hub with multiple functions in terms of a living, a business, a labour, etc. This study explores the role of the community facility for foreigners by using the Seoul Global Center as a case study, conducting a site observation, an interview(13 staff) and a questionnaire(148 visitors). The findings are the community facility functions as a 'global platform' in forms of a policy tool for implementing the urban globalization strategy, a mediator connecting foreign migrants with local communities, an applicant for successful settlement of foreign residents, an incubator that grows human and social capital, and a base for collecting and aggregating information on foreign migrants and forming new local identities.

본 논문은 우리나라 방과후 돌봄 체계의 중추적 역할을 하고 있는 지역아동센터의 고유한 기능과 역할에 대해 실무자들의 다양한 인식유형을 검증하기 위한 목적을 가진다. 이를 위하여 지역아동센터 실무자를 대상으로 시설 환경, 서비스 내용, 인력, 대상, 전달체계 측면으로 나누어 관련된 인식을 조사하였다. 분석결과 지역아동센터의 기능과 역할에 대한 인식유형은 '전문인력 중심의 통합서비스 지향형', '시설환경 기반의 보호서비스 지향형', '학교연계 방과후서비스 지향형', '개별맞춤형 기초사례서비스 지향형'으로 나눌 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 또한 지역아동센터 실무자들이 지역아동센터의 발전을 위해 인력의 중요성과 서비스 환경에 대한 지원, 서비스 내용의 차별성과 연속성, 전체 돌봄체계와의 공통성과 독자성을 찾아갈 수 있는 기능 모색으로 다시 나눠지고 있었다. 본 연구는 지역아동센터의 기능과 역할에 대해 그동안 실증적으로 검증되지 못했던 다양한 인식내용의 실체를 파악해 보았다는데 의의가 있다. 이러한 결과를 통해 향후 지역아동센터의 기능과 역할에 대한 당사자들의 관점을 반영하고, 운영의 방향성에 대한 실천적 논의를 이끌어 낼 수 있을 것이며, 지역아동센터 모델과 운영에 대한 정책결정과 집행과정에 있어서 지원에 대한 구체적 방향성과 기초자료를 제공할 수 있을 것이다.
