This study has purpose on deducting problems of evacuation plan for vulnerable populations in disaster and suggesting improvement plan through analysis of disaster weakness in domestic rural region aiming at vulnerable populations in disaster like old people containing most of domestic rural population, sometimes being in blind spot of safety when landslide or disaster occur. As a result, we could know that rural regions have high proportion of vulnerable populations in disaster like old people, also being so weak to landslide and slope collapse. So we suggested development of manual describing prevention of disaster and evacuation for vulnerable populations in disaster like old people and disaster evacuation organization for house and minimizing solution for damage of human life through improvement of steep slope evaluation criteria.

본 연구는 노인들의 연령집단별 신체 심리 사회 건강성, 가족지지, 자아통합감의 관련성을 파악하고, 건강성과 자아통합감의 관계에서 가족지지의 매개효과를 분석하고자, B광역시의 65세 이상노인을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 그 결과 첫째, 신체 심리 사회 건강성, 가족지지, 자아통합감은 '전기노인' 집단이 모두 높았고 '초고령'으로 갈수록 낮아졌다. 둘째, 전기, 후기 연령집단은 사회건강성과 심리건강성이 자아통합감에, 또 85세 이상 초고령집단은 심리건강성과 신체건강성이 자아통합감에 유의미한 영향을 미쳤다. 셋째, 모든 연령집단에서 건강성과 자아통합감 영향경로에 가족지지 매개효과가 있었다. 따라서, 노인연령 집단에 따른 가족지지의 다양한 개입과 자아통합감 향상을 위한 건강증진시스템에서 연령범주별 차별화된 서비스제공과 사회원조전략이 필요하다.

Objectives : The aim of the present study was to propose more substantial data for evaluating the quality of life of adults in terms of oral health as well as provide the basic data necessary to develop an effective oral health care program that improves the quality of life of adults by age group. Methods : Raw data were used from the sixth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey for the first and second years which was conducted from January 2013 to December 2014. Multiple regression analysis was conducted with the collected data by gender and age group to determine the impact of oral functions on the quality of life of adults. Results : It turned out that oral function has an impact on the quality of life of adults by age group as follows: young people (${\beta}$=.077), middle-age people (${\beta}$=.101), young-old elderly people (${\beta}$=.140), and old-old elderly people (${\beta}$=.143). It was shown that as people grow older, they have better quality of life only when they have good oral function. Conclusions : It is necessary to develop a proper oral health care program that prevents oral diseases and improves oral function by age group, which eventually will lead to good oral health. Continuous oral healthcare is also considered necessary.

본 연구는 사회적 배제가 중고령 장애인의 빈곤에 미치는 영향을 파악하고자 소득, 노동, 건강, 주거, 교육, 사회참여의 6가지 사회적 배제요인을 연구모형에 포함하여 이 요인들이 빈곤에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 또한 지역별 특성을 파악하기 위해 도시와 농어촌 거주 중고령 장애인의 사회적 배제 및 빈곤 실태를 비교 분석하였다. 이를 위해 고령화연구패널 4차년도 자료에서 45세 이상 중고령 장애인 640명을 추출하여 로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구 결과, 사회적 배제요인 중 노동, 주거, 교육이 중고령 장애인의 빈곤에 유의한 영향을 주었다. 지역별로 살펴보면, 도시 지역의 경우, 나이가 적고, 배우자가 없으며, 일을 하지 않고, 집을 소유하지 않은 중고령 장애인이 빈곤에 처할 확률이 높았다. 농촌 지역에 거주하는 중고령 장애인은 나이가 적고, 배우자가 없는 경우 빈곤할 확률이 높았다. 이러한 연구결과를 토대로 중고령 장애인의 사회적 배제 및 빈곤 감소를 위한 정책적 함의를 제시하였다.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to identify differences in characteristics of the people who frequently drink alone between those in old-city regions and those in other regions in Busan, focusing on socio-demographic factors and the level of drinking according to the types of stress. Methods: The analysis confirmed the differences based on Busan Social Statistics Data in 2012, 2014, and 2016. Frequencies by each variable were presented, and ${\chi}^2$ and logistic regression analysis were also used in the analysis. Results: The residents of Busan showed higher odds ratios of "frequent drinking alone" when they felt considerably higher-than-normal levels of stress. In addition, in the residents of old-city regions, the odds ratios of those who frequently drank alone were not different between people who could easily relieve stress, who experienced economic stress, or who had relationship stress and people who did not. However, higher odds ratios of frequently drinking alone were reported when such participants felt some stress related to work, family, relationships, and so on. Conclusions: Interventions for the appropriate relief of stress caused by different reasons, as well as other stress-relieving methods, should be implemented for the people's benefits.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI) with participation in badminton and to find the effects of badminton on the shoulder joint. Methods: A questionnaire was answered by 143 people with shoulder pain and disability in badminton clubs located in Busan, Gyeongsangnam-do. Out of the 143 subjects (91 males, 52 females), about half (72 people) were over 40 years old, with 71 people over 50 years old. The questionnaire contained 27 questions involving demographic participation characteristics, playing characteristics, and SPADI. Data analysis was performed using the SPSS statistics program to conduct frequency analysis, cross analysis, the t-test, and one-way analysis of variance. Results: The correlation between badminton career, frequency of play, and SPADI was statistically significant. There was a significant increase in SPADI scores for players over 40 years old. The over 40 year old group with less than 5 years of badminton had a significantly increase in SPADI score. The over 50 year old group showed a significantly lower SPADI score compared with the over 40 group. Conclusion: We suggest that beginner badminton players learn correct posture and badminton skills from professionals, participate regularly, and maintain an appropriate intensity/frequency of badminton.
