As the elderly population is rapidly increasing not only domestically but also globally, convenience foods for the elderly population are receiving attention. Therefore, the senior food market continues to grow rapidly both domestically and overseas. In relation to this, this study seeks to explore convenience food preferences through the growth status of the convenience food market and the demand for convenience food among the elderly population. We would like to consider various factors that influence the increase in convenience food consumption among the elderly population. This study uses meta-analysis and systematic literature research to find ways to revitalize the convenience food market targeting the elderly population. As a result of the analysis, it was mentioned that in order to revitalize the convenience food market for the elderly population, it is important to develop products with high nutritional value, suitable for the physical characteristics of the elderly population, and low price, and to consider convenience and accessibility. Through a multifaceted approach, we aim to increase the need for convenient food products that meet the needs of the elderly population, contribute to improving the health and well-being of the elderly, and further efficiently manage the health of the elderly nationally and globally.

The purpose of this study was to understand experiences of successful aging of community-dwelling elderly living in the Korean community using mixed methods. This study is a mixed methods research using convergent parallel design. 483 elderly people living in the 2 cities were selected as subjects to collect quantitative data. For qualitative data collection, 6 elderly people participated. The level of successful aging for elderly people living at home scored an average of 4.30 ± .59 out of 5 points (4.46 ± .64 for self-efficacy, 4.31 ± .65 for good self-control, 4.29 ± .70 for satisfaction with children's success, and 4.26 ± .61 for partnership with spouses). The main themes of successful aging derived by interview were as follows: 1) fulfill responsibilities of raising children as parents, 2) establish a stable life to overcome difficulties, 3) accept the body being different from the past, and 4) live in harmony with people around them. Based on these results, it is necessary to provide useful health care services that can be used in the local community and to provide service utilization information through various routes in order to achieve a successful aging.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the allocation criteria types in transferring economic resources to adult children from the adult-childhood of children to parent's death based on theoretical backgrounds. The research results can be summarized as follows: 1) The mean of allocation criterion of exchange was the highest, the next was the criterion of compensation, and the criterion related birth factors was the lowest. 2) Allocation criteria dimensions of economic resources transfers composed of compensation, exchange, and birth factors were classified into 4 types: $\circled1$ the type that parents transfer to compensate economic status of children, $\circled2$ the type that parents transfer more resources to children who take more care of their parents, $\circled3$ the type that parents transfer more resources to primogeniture or sons, $\circled4$ the mixed type that uses the exchange criterion, the compensation criterion, and the criterion related birth factors. 3) The variables which have significance on the types of allocation criteria were age, the number of children, and marital status. The results of the study suggests the implications of income redistribution policy, financial resource management and saving products development, and the law to motivate care of parents.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to find out the relationship between health concern, knowledge of cardio-cerebrovascular disease, and health-promoting behaviors among the elderly in the community. Method: The subjects of the study were 142 senior citizens aged 65 years or older in Cheongju-si, Chungcheong-do. Data were collected using structured questionnaires that included questions on the general characteristics, health concerns, knowledge of cardio-cerebrovascular disease, and health-promoting behaviors. The collected data were analyzed by the statistical program SPSS 20.0. The frequencies, percentages, averages, and standard deviations of the collected data were analyzed using a t-test, ANOVA, Mann Whitney U test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient, basing on the purpose of the study. The Scheffe test was carried out as a posteriori test. Result: The elderly were found to have a high health concern, but their knowledge of cardio-cerebrovascular disease was low, and their health-promoting behaviors were above the intermediate level. There was a significant positive correlation between each variable, which means that the higher the health concern was, the more knowledge an individual had of cardio-cerebrovascular disease, and the more health-promoting behaviors one had. Conclusion: This suggests that the elderly in the community should be encouraged to engage in the actions that promote their health by raising their level of health concern and awareness of diseases through health education, basing on their individual characteristics.

본 연구는 노인장기요양보험제도에서 가정방문물리치료 제도의 도입과 정착을 위해 수급자 측면의 환자와 공급자 측면의 물리치료사의 인식 및 필요성에 대한 의견을 알아보고자 하였다. 조사 참여자는 광주광역시 소재 의료기관에 근무하는 물리치료사(130명)와 환자(96명)를 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구결과 환자(60.4%)와 물리치료사(75.4%)는 장기요양보험제도에서 간호사 및 간호조무사에 의해 제공되는 신체활동 지원서비스는 전문성이 부족하며, 가정방문물리치료를 통해 질적인 치료가 가능할 것이라고 응답하였다(환자 47.9%, 물리치료사 59.2%).또한 장기요양보험제도 개선 시 가장 우선순위에 대한 질문에서 환자는 급여비 절감(35.4%)과 대상자 확대(32.3%), 치료사는 전문인력 확대(73.8%)와 다양한 재활서비스의 도입(20.2%)순으로 응답하였고, 재활팀의 도입이 필요하다고 응답하였다. 가정방문물리치료가 필요한 이유는 환자가 의료기관에 가기 힘듦(PT 30.0%)과 노인의 신체기능이 향상(pt47.1%)되기 때문이라고 응답하였다. 결론적으로 물리치료사뿐만 아니라 수요자인 환자 대부분에서 노인장기요양보험제도 내에 가정방문물리치료 도입에 관한 필요성 및 인식도가 현저히 높은 것으로 나타나 제도의 시행이 시급한 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구는 장기요양서비스의 질 제고를 위해 장기요양서비스 이용 노인들의 신체적 및 정신적 기능 상태를 평가해 보고, 그에 영향을 미치는 관련 요인을 규명하고자 시도하였다. 조사대상은 대전지역에 거주하는 65세 이상 노인 중 장기요양서비스 이용자 350명(재가급여 178명, 시설급여 172명)으로 하였으며, 자료 수집은 2011년 2월 16일부터 3월 31일까지의 기간 동안에 표준화된 무기명식 면접조사용 설문지를 사용하여 면접조사를 통해 이루어졌다. 연구결과, 재가급여 노인의 IADL과 MMSE-K는 시설급여 노인보다 유의하게 높았으나 ADL과 CES-D는 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. ADL, IADL, CES-D 및 MMSE-K 상호 간의 상관관계를 보면, 재가 및 시설급여 이용노인 모두 ADL은 IADL 및 MMSE-K와 양의 상관관계를 보인 반면, CES-D와는 음의 상관관계를 나타내었다. IADL은 MMSE-K와 양의 상관관계를 보인 반면, CES-D와는 음의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 다중회귀분석 결과 재가 및 시설 급여 이용 노인 모두 ADL과 IADL에 유의하게 영향을 미치는 변수로는 건망증 증상 유무, 규칙적 운동 및 MMSE-K가 선정되었다. 또한 CES-D와 MMSE-K는 주관적 건강상태, 건망증 증상 유무 및 IADL이 유의하게 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 이상과 같은 결과는 장기요양서비스 이용 노인들의 신체적 및 정신적 기능은 개인의 건강상태나 건강관련행위 특성과 밀접한 관련성이 있음을 시사하고 있다.

Given that the demand for dental care for elderly individuals is expected to increase according to demographic changes, long-term roadmaps for the current health insurance system should be actively planned. The study aimed to investigate the health insurance system in Korea, compared to that of Japan, and suggest directions for the work of dental hygienists to provide basic data on efficient improvements in the health insurance system. Based on the collected data, the website was used to collect additional related data from Korea and Japan. The most common cause of death in Korea was malignant neoplasms, and most patients were hospitalized for diseases and disorders of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue. Dental care covered by Korean medical insurance for individuals aged 65 years or older was treatment oriented, such as dentures and implants, while in Japan, treatment-intensive items, such as visiting a dental hygienist for guidance and provision of home-care professional oral hygiene treatment, were covered. The percentages of remaining teeth in Korea and the percentage of remaining 20 teeth were 68.9% in those aged 65 to 74 years and 51.2% in those aged 75 to 84 years in Japan. A strategy for promoting oral health among elderly individuals should be established, and a multilateral intervention approach is required to prevent oral problems from leading to deterioration of whole-body health. The role of dental hygienists in providing comprehensive assessment to elderly individuals is important. In order to provide systemic oral care, it is necessary to introduce oral care systems according to the national policy.
