  • 최근 군가산점제도의 부활에 관련되어 군 복무의 효과에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 그 배경에서는 우리나라 남성들이 군 복무를 통해 금전적, 비금전적 손실을 입는다는 인식이 깔려 있다. 그러나 군 복무가 노동시장에 미치는 효과를 분석한 실증연구는 거의 없다. 이에 본 연구는 2007년 제10회 한국노동패널조사의 남성 임금근로자 자료를 활용하여 군 복무가 임금결정에 미치는 영향을 실증분석한다. 일반적인 민서형( Mincerian) 임금함수 추정을 통해 군복무의 임금효과를 추정한 결과, 유의적인 정(+)의 효과가 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 일반적인 인식과 달리 군 복무가 노동시장에서 긍정적인 효과를 나타내고 있다는 점을 보여준다.

  • Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the cognitive performance of major depressive disorder (MDD) in military service/conscription personnel who visited the psychiatric clinic for a medical certificate to consider the situation from the perspective of Korea's unique compulsory military system. We used the Korean Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-IV (K-WAIS-IV) as the test for verifying the suitable level of cognitive functioning for military service and as the embedded measure with reflecting suboptimal effort. Methods : The study was conducted on 56 (28 males, age 19-34) in/out-patients admitted to the psychiatry department and diagnosed with MDD (DSM-IV). All participants completed a structured clinical interview (MINI-Plus), as well as self-report questionnaires related to demographics and severity of clinical symptoms. K-WAIS-IV was administered to each subject to assess cognitive characteristics. Results : Military group showed significantly lower processing speed index (PSI) score including subtests of symbol search (SS) and coding (CD) score, compared to the control group. There was no other significant differences in the Full Scale IQ (FSIQ), Verbal Comprehension Index (VCI), Perceptual Reasoning Index (PRI), Working Memory Index (WMI) scores including sub-tests comprised of the above indices, and Reliable Digit Span (RDS), Enhanced-RDS-Revised (E-RDS-R) between the study and control groups. Conclusion : This study was the first effort to verify the characteristics of Korea's military group with MDD and suggest the applicability of PSI and processing speed of K-WAIS-IV as an embedded performance index to test sub-optimal effort or low motivation beyond the purpose of testing cognitive deficits.

  • Background: Several large outbreaks have demonstrated the threat of community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) in close-contact environments, such as occurs during training and quartering of military recruits training. In South Korea, which is a hospital or healthcare-associated MRSA prevalent area, military service is compulsory for all healthy young men. We surveyed and determined the extent of CA-MRSA colonization in the upper respiratory tracts of Korean military recruits. Methods: The Korean military recruits who were enrolled in a military training facility from November 2004 to March 2005 were eligible for this study. Sputum or nasopharyngeal swap was obtained from randomly selected subjects who displayed upper respiratory tract symptoms. Results: Of the 181 participants, 32 participants (17.7%) were colonized with S. aureus, and 12 participants (6.6%) were colonized with MRSA. Among the cases that were colonized with S. aureus, 37.5% (12/32) were colonized with MRSA. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing showed resistant patterns that were suggestive of the CA-MRSA strains for all of the MRSA isolates. Conclusion: This study of Korean military recruits found a great deal of showed MRSA colonization in them, and the antimicrobial resistant profile that was suggestive of a CA-MRSA strain. Further efforts to prevent the spread of MRSA infections and careful monitoring for CA-MRSA outbreaks are warranted, especially in a high risk group such as military recruits.

  • This study aims to analyze the characteristics of the management situation of the Korea Railroad Corporation(KORAIL) through the management innovation process of the KORAIL and to suggest its implications for military application. Despite stable demand, the railway passenger industry had the limitation of not being able to abolish deficit routes due to public service obligations. In addition, the launch of the Suseo High-Speed Line has introduced a competitive system, posing a threat to corporate management. KORAIL wanted to overcome this crisis by innovating its management through the utilization of big data, improvement of the freight business, decentralization of demand, the introduction of tourism railroads, and development of station influence areas. By utilizing big data, KORAIL was able to optimize the railway fare system while reducing fixed costs spent on railway maintenance. It also drastically reduced the station of cargo and created a base station to pursue economies of scale. On the other hand, the existing exclusive station system was abolished to solve the chronic saturation of the downtown area, and the railway demand was moved to Gwangmyeong Station and Suwon Station to optimize the passenger supply. In particular, it developed a new business model called the tourism railway by developing the mountain Byeokjin Line, which was a chronic deficit line, and sought to improve liquidity through the development of the station influence area. Such a process of innovation at KORAIL suggests an appropriate direction in seeking ways to innovate the military medical institutions. First of all, the necessity of improving organizational immersion through the development of a personnel structure suitable for the compulsory organization, while expanding the facilities of the division and corps, and reducing the time required for medical treatment and waiting through the establishment of a data-based medical system was suggested. Next, it was also discussed to integrate the National Health Medical College, which received accreditation as a medical facility through the designation of advanced general hospitals and is ultimately under discussion with the Medical Institution. Through this, we hope that the military medical institutions, which are facing various challenges, will overcome existing limitations and be re-lighted as innovative institution that provides comprehensive public health services.

  • 대한민국 육군은 우리 사회 최대 화두 중 하나인 지속적인 출산율 감소와 저출산 문제가 병력 부족으로 인한 안보 공백으로 이어질 것을 예측하고, 2010년 병역법을 개정하여 이전까지 입대에 제한을 두었던 '외관상 명백한 혼혈인'의 입대를 의무화했다. 그 결과 2011년에는 50여 명의 다문화 가족 자녀가 입대하였으며, 당시 병무청은 2020년이후 매년 8천 명 이상이 입대할 것으로 예상하였다. 이는 육군에 또 다른 도전을 야기한다. 서로 다른 언어, 종교, 식습관에 대한 이해와 존중이 결여될 경우 구성원들 간의 갈등이 발생할 수 있으며 이는 전투력 약화로 이어질 것이다. 이에 세계 강군의 다문화 적용 사례 연구를 통해 다문화에 대한 존중의 성공, 실패 역사와 현재 미(美) 육군의 다문화 존중 정책을 연구하여 우리 육군의 지향점을 고찰하고자 한다.

  • 연구목적 본 연구는 군복무 적합성에 대한 정밀평가 및 병사용 진단서를 목적으로 정신건강의학과에 내원한 환자군의 심리적 특성을 확인하고자, 일반적인 정신과적 치료를 위해 내원한 환자군과의 비교를 통해 차이를 분석하였다. 방법 정신건강의학과에 내원한 18세에서 27세까지의 남성환자 총 319명을 병사용 진단군 165명과 일반내원군 154명으로 분류하였다. 독립표본 t-test, ANCOVA, 절단점을 초과하는 사례수에 대한 ${\chi}^2$ 검정을 통해 두 집단 간 MMPI-2-RF의 척도들의 차이를 비교하였다. 결과 두 집단 간 연령 및 교육수준의 차이가 유의하였다. 두 집단은 MMPI-2-RF의 타당도 척도, 상위차원척도, 재구성 임상척도, 특정문제척도, 성격병리 5요인척도 모두에서 차이가 있었다. 두 집단 간 차이를 조사하기 위해 시행한 세가지 분석 모두에서 유의한 차이를 보인 척도는 EID, RC7, HLP, SFD, SAV, SHY, DSF, INTR-r이었다. 결론 군복무 적합성 평가가 의뢰된 환자군의 경우, 일반내원 환자군에 비해 정서적 고통의 수준이 유의하게 높았으며, 무력감이나 자신감 저하, 대인관계에서의 어려움이 더욱 현저한 것으로 시사되었다. 더불어 병사용 진단 군에서 보인 타당도 척도의 상승을 고려하여 향후 연구에 대한 제언을 하였다.
