Depression is a major health problem that can lead to mortality. This study was conducted to assess the risk factors associated with depression in a group aged over 65 years by analyzing nationally representative Korean survey data. A total of 1,209 subjects were analyzed among the participants of the 2014 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Statistical methods for a complex sample were applied by using SPSS program(windows ver. 24.0). Depression assessments were carried out by using the 9-item depression module of the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). Depression ($PHQ-9{\geq}5$) was more frequently found in females (33.2%) compared to males (16.1%). However, there was no evidence suggesting that characteristics such as residence area, income level and age, except for educational level, were related with depression. The results of the logistic regression analysis showed that i) health habits such as smoking (OR: 2.26) and lack of aerobic physical activity (OR: 1.62), ii) mental health status such as bad self-rating of health status (OR: 4.30), more stress (OR: 8.31), and bad health-related quality of life (by EQ_5D, OR: 3.41), iii) chronic diseases such as obesity (OR: 0.66), hypercholesterolemia (OR: 1.57), anemia (OR: 1.91), and iv) low intake of energy (OR: 1.84) and calcium (OR: 1.71) were significantly associated with depression. This study suggests that certain characteristics of health habits, mental health status, chronic diseases and nutrient intake may be associated with depression. Prospective research on long-term control is needed to establish causal connections among those factors with depression.

Background: As self-employed workers are vulnerable to health problems, this study aimed to analyze mental health problems and sleep disturbances among self-employed workers compared with paid workers in Korea. Methods: A total of 34,750 workers (23,938 paid workers and 10,812 self-employed workers) were analyzed from the fifth Korean Working Condition Survey, which included 50,205 households collected by stratified sampling in 2017. To compare mental health problems and sleep disturbance among self-employed workers and paid workers, multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed. Results: The odds ratio in self-employed workers compared with paid workers was 1.25 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.09-1.42) for anxiety, 1.11 (95% CI: 1.04-1.17) for overall fatigue, 1.11 (95% CI: 1.04-1.20) for difficulty falling asleep, 1.10 (95% CI: 1.02-1.18) for difficulty maintaining sleep and 1.24 (95% CI: 1.16-1.32) for extreme fatigue after waking up. Conclusions: Self-employed workers in Korea have a higher risk of self-reported mental health problems and sleep disturbances than paid workers. Further studies with a longitudinal design and structured evaluation are required to investigate the causal relationship between health problems and self-employment.

국내의 의료보험 제도의 순기능은 높이 평가받지만 불완전한 보장성의 문제로 인해 국민들은 민영의료보험 가입을 통해 보장성을 확보하고자 한다. 이로 인해 최근 민영의료보험의 가입률이 높아지게 되었고, 청구율 또한 높아지게 되었다. 이처럼 민영의료보험을 찾는 사람이 늘어남에 따라 민영의료보험사의 근로자는 직무 부담이 가중되었으며, 특히 보험금 지급을 담당하는 보험심사 근무직의 경우 보험금을 고객과의 소통, 회사의 수익 상출에 기여 등 다양한 이유로 직무스트레스가 나날이 증가하고 있으며 그로 인한 부작용을 경험하고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 보험심사 근무직의 직무스트레스가 정신건강에 미치는 영향에 대해 분석하여 보험심사 근무직의 직무스트레스를 감소시키고 정신건강을 증진하고자 서술적 조사 연구를 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 보험심사 근무직의 직무스트레스는 정신건강에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 세부적으로는 직무스트레스가 역할수행능력·자기신뢰도, 우울, 수면장애·불안, 일반건강·생명력의 정신건강 4가지 요인 모두에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 보험심사 근무직의 직무스트레스가 정신건강에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미친다는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 직무스트레스는 근로자로 하여금 직무수행에 대한 열의를 감소시키고 이직률, 퇴사율을 높이는 등 조직적인 측면에서의 부작용을 초래하기도 하지만 개인의 신체 건강을 악화시키고 우울, 불안 등과 같은 질환을 유발하여 정신건강을 피폐하게 만들기도 한다. 따라서 이를 예방하기 위하여 대상자의 특성에 맞는 적절한 직무스트레스 예방법과 대처법을 제공하여 직무스트레스를 감소시키고 정신건강을 증진할 수 있도록 지원하여야 할 것이다.

The purpose of this study is to discover the possible solutions for the problem faced by academicians during online learning by means of employing qualitative and quantitative approaches. Using a qualitative approach, selected academicians were interviewed, and their feedback was transcribed and used to develop the survey instrument. The quantitative research design was later used to determine the most plausible solutions for the problem that could be obtained and implemented by distributing the questionnaire to academicians at a public university. Multiple regression analysis results indicate that work-life conflict and lack of support are the main contributors to academicians' mental and emotional health issues. The study's major findings help higher education institutions craft appropriate strategies to enhance the effectiveness of online teaching and learning by providing the necessary support to the academicians. The study's findings suggest that academicians should separate work and family requirements to concentrate on their job. Furthermore, the immediate supervisor must be considerate in determining the number of tasks, the deadlines, and the assistance required to complete the task. Lastly, academicians must equip themselves with emotional intelligence to cope with stressors.

본 연구는 한국인의 정신건강이해력(MHL)을 평가하고 취약집단을 분석하기 위한 목적을 가지고 있다. 이를 위해 전국의 연령별, 지역별 인구비례에 따라 표집 된 성인 1,197명을 대상으로 정신분열병, 우울증, 알코올중독 사례를 무작위로 배정하여 각 사례의 정신질환 인식률, 원인에 대한 이해, 치료법과 치료자원에 대한 이해, 정신과치료에 대한 낙인을 조사하였다. 그 결과 우리나라의 MHL은 매우 낮음을 알 수 있다. 전반적인 인식률도 낮지만 특히 정신분열병에 대한 인식률이 매우 낮았다. 원인 또한 사회적, 생물학적 원인보다 개인적 원인을 선호하였고, 심리상담을 제외한 전문적 치료의 유용성을 자가 치료보다 낮게 인식하였다. 전문가 중에서는 정신과전문의의 유용성을 가장 높게 인식하였지만 이것 역시 가족보다 낮은 수준이다. MHL 취약집단을 분석하기 위해 군집분석을 실시한 결과 MHL이 높은 집단과 낮은 집단의 차이는 원인에 대한 이해와 치료방법과 자원에 대한 이해에서 나타났다. 낮은 집단의 특성은 남성이 많고, 60대 이상이며, 군 이하 지역에 거주하는 사람으로 분석되었다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 연구자들은 정부 주도하의 대중매체를 활용한 MHL 향상 프로그램을 제안하고 취약집단에 대한 우선적 개입의 필요성을 주장하였다.
