본 연구의 목적은 노인들의 성태도와 성 욕구 대처행동을 파악하고, 성태도와 삶의 만족도에 미치는 성 욕구 대처행동의 매개효과를 규명하는데 있다. 조사 대상은 재가노인 305명이었으며, 위계적 회귀 분석과 Aroian 검정을 통해 성 욕구 대처 행동의 매개효과 분석하였다. 연구결과는 노인들의 성 태도는 하위요인 중 '합리적 성태도'가 가장 높게 나타났으며, '자유적 성태도'가 '전통적 성태도' 보다 높은 것으로 나타났다. 노인들의 성 욕구 대처행동은 '통계적 대처행동' 유형이 더 높은 것으로 분석 되었다. 성태도와 성 욕구 대처행동, 삶의 만족도는 각 변인 간 유의한 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 성 욕구 대처행동은 재가노인의 자유적 성태도와 삶의 만족도의 관계를 유의미하게 매개하는 것으로 분석되었다. 이상의 연구 결과를 바탕으로 노인의 삶의 질 향상을 위해 긍정적이고 개방적인 성태도 형성과 긍정적인 성 욕구 대처행동을 도모할 수 있는 방안 모색을 제언한다.

The summary of issues concerning home health nursing care under the long-term care insurance system include; 1) absence of comprehensive and systematic policy in home health care deliverly systems; 2) absence of community based home health agencies that are considered as the community residents in general. In order to overcome these problems and Issues, policy alternatives of home health care should 1) establish a comprehensive home health care policy for homebound persons; 2) establish the foundations for home health care nurses and community based home health care systems; 3) establish home health care facilities and infrastructure; and 4) promote research and development concerning home health care. Conclusively, a home health care system should be built on a comprehensive policy vision based on health policy, especially long-term care insurance system in the near future. Every homebound residents service has to be constructed systematically under suitable facilities considering the consumer characteristics and health conditions. By doing this, the consumer based comprehensive community home health care delivery system can be constructed in view of the long-term health care insurance system for elderly people.

This study evaluated 23 elderly residents living independently in 4 group homes for their behaviors of space occupancy and activities of daily living. The aim of the study was to analysis the habit of space occupancy of residents in group homes for elderly people. As the results, the habit of space occupancy of residents in group homes was analysed and categorized into four types: (1) bedroom occupancy, (2) common space occupancy, (3) 2-space occupancy and (4) several spaces occupancy. It was shown, then, that the common space occupancy in ‘ㅂ' group home, 2-space occupancy and several spaces occupancy in 'ㅇ' and 'ㄱ' group homes, and bedroom occupancy in ‘ㅅ' group home were highest, respectively, so that the type of their space occupancy varied in accordance with individual group homes. Moreover, there was a difference in the habit of their space occupancy according to the degree of achieving both ADL and IADL. This fact seems to indicate that the higher the degree of their independence in ADL and IADL, the more the number of their occupying space. Accordingly, the degree of their independence in achieving ADL and IADL should be taken into account in planning residential spaces for elderly people, including individual and commonly sharing spaces, traffic lines, layout and facilities.

The Japanese elderly welfare policy has focused on facility policy for the aged and preventive care service for healthy elderly people. This paper has conducted a comparative analysis on Geriatric Gealth Services Facility and Special Nursing Home for the Elderly. For this, each service function has been divided into six categories; daily life / nursing and caring / medical service / management / supply / miscellaneous. Then the change in real structure by category has been analyzed through a plan analysis on case facilities. In the Geriatric Health Services Facility, the biggest change was observed in 'livelihood' among six categories. In the Special Nursing Home for the Elderly, 'the nursing and care parts' and 'medical service part' are decreased since 1999. At that time, the facilities started to be individualized and divided into a unit. To pursue home-like care instead of unit care, there was a change in construction planning to help the aged with dementia live a self-sufficient life.
