The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a 12-week Resistance exercise Type on Muscle Damaged and Blood Lipid in elderly Women. Study shows researchers randomly divided thirty elderly women into the following 3 Groups such as Control group(CG: n=10), Aquatic Exercise Group(AEG: n=10), circuit exercise group(CEG: n=10). They made each group excercise 3 days a week for 12 weeks. The results were as follows. There was no interaction effect in the TC, LDL-C, HDL-C but there were interaction effects in the Body weight and Body Fat(%). The AEG and CEG decreased than the CG in the Body Weight, Body Fat(%), TC, LDL-C, and increased than the CG in the HDL-C with significant difference. These results were made certain that decreasing the Body Weight and Blood lipid, Increasing the Muscle and HDL-C for elderly women on AEG and CEG. The analysis results of study show the index of TG, CPK, LDH has no significant difference.

This study aimed to investigate the mediating effects of spiritual well-being and ego resilience in the association between parent-child relationships and cultural adaption among children from multi-cultural families. For this purpose, surveys were administered to 4th to 6th graders in 200 elementary schools (150 multi-culturally focused and 50 in preparation for multi-cultural education) located in seven provinces in Korea. For the current study, we analyzed data collected from 706 children in 119 schools by utilizing structural equation modeling. To verify the mediating effects and its significance, a Sobel test was conducted. The results showed that parent-child relationships within the multi-cultural families was positively and significantly associated with spiritual well-being and ego-resilience in children, but not with children's cultural adaptation. Also, the results of the Sobel test showed significant mediating effects of spiritual well-being and ego-resilience in children in the association between parent-child relationships and children's cultural adaptation. Based on these results, policy and practice implications for children from multi-cultural families are suggested.

In this study, a complex sample logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the factors affecting the activity restriction of 2,701 normal elderly and chronically ill elderly aged 65 and over using raw data from the 8th period of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. It was found that the elderly with chronic disease felt more restricted in their activities than the normal elderly. Activity limiting factors in stroke and hypertension patients are subjective health status, economic level, stress perception, and moderate-intensity work and leisure. The factors limiting activity in patients with heart disease were subjective health status and economic level, and factors limiting activity in patients with joint disease were subjective health status and high-intensity work and leisure. Activity limiting factors for lung disease patients are education level, high intensity work and leisure, and endocrine system activity limiting factors include subjective health status, stress perception, high intensity work and leisure, and activity limiting factors for cancer patients. is subjective health status, stress perception, moderate-intensity work and high-intensity leisure. Rehabilitation programs and policy support are needed for the continuous participation of the elderly with chronic diseases.

Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA and Scheffe's test, Pearson correlation coefficient and multivariate logistic regression analysis(SPSS 25.0). The major findings, The subject's Hb In BMI, obese was the highest(F=97.862, p<0.001). The Hb In WC, $WC{\geq}90cm$ was higher for male(t=4.909, p<0.001), and $WC{\geq}85cm$ was higher for female(t=5.088, p<0.001). Hb has a significant positive correlated with BMI(r=0.188, p<0.001), WC(r=0.298, p<0.001). In male, Hyperhemoglobinemia was 2.30 times(p<0.001) higher in obese and 1.81 times(p<0.001) higher in $WC{\geq}90cm$. In female, Hyperhemoglobinemia was 1.99 times(p=0.002) higher in overweight, 5.66 times(p<0.001) higher in obese, and 4.27 times(p<0.001) higher in $WC{\geq}85cm$.

In an effort to explore the effects of Youtube video-watching activities on Korean college students' English reading comprehension skills, 148 undergraduate students who enrolled in a General English class at a university in Korea participated in the present study. Participants were randomly classified into four groups - three experimental groups and one control group - according to when they watch videos: before class (n = 33), during class (n = 42), after class (n = 36), and none (n = 37). Over 16 weeks, the three experimental groups engaged in Youtube video-watching activities for about 10 minutes before, during, and after the class, while the control group did not. Pre- and post-tests were administered to confirm the effects of the use of Youtube videos on improving English reading comprehension skills. To compare the improvement between groups, a one-way ANOVA was also run. Major findings are as follows: First, participants in all the three experimental groups significantly improved their English reading comprehension skills, indicating the beneficial effects of Youtube video-watching activities. However, there was no statistically significant difference in the mean improvement between the groups. Based on this, limitations and suggestions for the future research are discussed at the end.
