Secondly, it was found that the self esteem of elderly women affected psychological well-being and that the higher the participants perceived self esteem, the higher the level of psychological well-being. Thirdly, family support appeared to have a moderating effect in relation to self esteem and psychological well-being. As it were, the higher the perception level of elderly women was, the higher impact of their self esteem on their psychological well-being. Therefore, there needs to be a re-consideration of the importance of family support which is being weakened due to family nuclearization as well as mechanisms for improving family support.

본 연구의 목적은 65세 이상의 노인을 대상으로 무력감, 우울, 주관적 건강상태, 가족지지, 사회지지가 건강증진행위에 미치는 영향을 파악하고자 시도되었다. 연구대상은 G시와 C시의 복지관 3개소, 경로당 3개소, 요양병원 2개소의 노인 225명이었으며, 서술적 통계, 신뢰도, 상관관계, 확인적 요인분석, 적합도 검증, 총효과, 직접효과, 간접효과로 분석하였다. 연구결과 건강증진행위에 영향을 미치는 변수들의 직접효과는 사회지지, 우울, 가족지지와 주관적 건강상태, 무력감 순으로 나타났고 이들 변인들은 건강증진행위를 66% 설명하였다. 우울과 무력감은 가족지지와 사회지지를 통한 유의한 간접효과가 있었으며, 주관적 건강상태는 사회지지를 통한 간접효과는 유의하였으나 가족지지를 통한 간접효과는 유의하지 않았다. 따라서 사회지지를 높일 수 있는 다양한 프로그램 개발, 지역사회와의 연계를 통한 지지체계 구축이 필요하며 이는 가족지지와 상호보완적인 역할을 할 수 있어야 한다. 또한 노인의 우울과 무력감, 주관적 건강상태는 개인별 상황에 따른 적절한 개입을 통한 간호중재 제공 및 지속적인 관리체계가 필요하다고 사료된다.

The sex categories of the child care issues were studied based on a review of the literature related to the Swedish child care, family welfare system and the socio-economic information on Sweden. Six categories were : (1) historical and socio-economic background of child care system, (2) supply of and demand for the child care service and the types of public and private child care, (3) child care program activities, (4) child care staff training system, (5) administration and financial support system for the child care, and (6) the family policy and the family support programs in Sweden. For the Korean child care system, this study on the Swedish child care implied that : (1) To provide a progressive system of the child care system in Korea will require serious discussion about concentration of the child care administration system which is currently distributed to Ministry of Education and Ministry of Health and Welfare. (2) The extensive family support programs such as the parental leave and flexible work conditions for women are needed for the infant care by parents at home. (3) to expand the child care services in Korea, public support should be primarily focused on the supply of the public day care centers even though the demands for the various child care services are to be met by public financial support. (4) Most of all, societal recognition that all children are the resposiblity of our society is needed to develop a progressive child care system in Korea.

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate factors influencing suicidal ideation in people with mental disorder. Methods: The subjects were 176 people with mental disorder from community mental health centers, social rehabilitation facilities, and university hospital psychiatric outpatient departments. The instruments used included a suicidal ideation questionnaire, a self-esteem scale, a spiritual well-being scale, a family support scale, and a professional support scale. Data were analyzed with t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and hierarchical regression analysis. Results: Suicidal ideation was influenced by age, history of suicidal attempts, and existential spiritual well-being. This study shows that suicidal ideation has negative correlation with existential spiritual well-being, self-esteem, family support, and age. Existential spiritual well-being, history of suicidal attempts, and age accounted for 30% regarding suicidal ideation in people with mental disorder. Conclusion: The lower existential spiritual well-being and age, the higher suicidal ideation. And also suicidal ideation was higher in people who had attempted suicide than in those who had not. Based on the outcomes of this study, it is necessary to design an intervention program that emphasizes existential spiritual well-being in order to decrease suicidal ideation in young people with mental disorder.
