본 연구는 충청남도를 대상으로 도시권과 농어촌권을 구분하고, 고령자 및 비고령자의 여가통행시간 영향요인의 이질성을 정량적으로 규명하고자 하였다. 분석자료는 2011년 가구통행실태조사를 활용하여 도심 및 농어촌권역의 통행자특성을 추출하고, 도심 및 농어촌권의 지역경제적특성 및 교통환경적특성을 활용하여 PLS(Partial least square) 회귀모형을 구축하였다. 분석결과, 도시권과 농어촌권 고령자의 여가통행시간에 영향을 미치는 주요변수는 버스배차간격, 버스노선수, 가구원수, 가구월평균수입으로 나타났다. 비고령자의 경우에는 고령자의 중요 영향변수 이외 지역경제(GRDP, 경제활동참가율)환경과 고용형태도 여가통행시간에 영향을 미치는 중요 변수로 나타났다. 한편, 농어촌권에 거주하는 여성고령자는 남성고령자 보다 여가통행시간에 더 민감하나 비고령자그룹은 남녀별로 큰 차이가 없는 것으로 분석되었다.

In order to prevent the elderly people from committing suicide attempts, it is necessary to verify attributes that affect the suicide attempts. It is noted that previous studies have focused on qualitative approaches, and simple correlation analyses to determine the attributes related to the suicide attempts in the elderly people. However, such previous approaches had led to insufficient performance when facing with complicated data sets. In this sense, this study suggests an alternative method in which attribute selection techniques are adopted to determine more relevant attributes of the suicide attempts occurring in Korean elderly people. To verify empirical validity of our proposed method, we used Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) from January 2007 to December 2012. Empirical results proved that the proposed attribute selection techniques showed better predictive effectiveness; 94.4% compared to the simple statistical methods. This study proposes a way to determining the elderly suicide and preventing it to happen.

Because of rapid aging, housing stability of elderly household is becoming an important social problem. The population of the elderly people was 11.3% and that of the elderly household was 23.2%, about 407 million, in 2010. Yet, social policies for elderly people are focusing on the household who takes care of the elderly people, not on the elderly headed households. These policies fail to reflect the reality. Housing satisfaction of the elderly household is different based on the tenure type and the satisfaction can be further affected by the types of elderly household within the same tenure group. Thus, strengthening the policies for the elderly headed households as well as differentiating the policies based on the types of household is required in order to meet the needs of the elderly households. For the elderly household living in a rent house in a city, a housing voucher is needed and for the low income elders who own their houses, housing renovation is required. Public housing affects only the residential satisfaction of single elderly households, not for all elderly households probably because public housing does not meet the demand of the elderly households appropriately. Since the elderly households wanting to move is noticeably small, a policy that provides proper facilities within the elders' neighborhood is most necessary. Also, in order to lessen the burden of housing expenses of the elders with low income, a public housing policy, in which 2-3 people living together in one public housing, needs to be examined.
