The primary focus of this study was on the issues associated with family and economic decision-making, in particular for the elderlyhood which might have to (or could be) share the family resources. This study regarded willingness to consider applying for Reverse Mortgage as an economic decision-making. The data was collected by interviewing 320 persons (over age 55) living in metropolitan areas in 2008. We selected 227 cases to find the influence of family, having both spouse and adult-children. We have used a theory of Planned Behavior by Fishbein to analysis three research questions. The results are as follows : first, the results partially explain willingness to consider applying for reverse mortgage using Fishbein's theory. Second, several results indicated that economic decision-makings within the family are influenced by several factors relating to other family member's view. They means that some of Subjective Norm variables, of Attitude Behavior ones, and of Perceived Behavior Control ones. Third, the result shows men and women respond differently to consider to applying for that policy. Men are conscious of the other people, i.e., friends, relatives except close family members, and, on the other hand, women are mindful of close family members, i.e., adult children. Forth, the group who have lower income showed higher intentions to consider that policy, when they have adult-children. Fifth, according to age group, pre-elderly group are influenced by consent of adult-children, a level of education, and on the other hand, elderly group are influenced by the other people, i.e., friends, relatives, a level of education, and so on. These results meaned that these distinct characteristics should be considered to establish Income Security policy for the pre-elderly and the elderly.

An ecological survey of early childhood nutrition was conducted from January 23 to February 18, to study the feeding method and weaning practice in Whaseong-gun, Kyonggi-do. This study covered a total of 283 children. Seventy three percent of the subjects had been breast-fed; 10% had been bottle-fed; others had been combination-fed before the introduction of supplementary foods. Only 26.9% of the subjects began to be fed supplementary food before the age of 6 months. The supplementary food used most frequently by the majority of children at the beginning of weaning was plain cooked rice; rarely special preparation, or different from the food eaten by the family. As for age of termination of breast feeding, 42.7% of the subjects were before 12 months; 32.8% were between 13 and 18 months of age; 24.5% were more than 19 months old. As for methods of stopping breast feeding, 44.5% of the subjects were naturally terminated while 38.5% were forced to terminate by the application of sticking plaster or medicines to the mother's nipples. The results indicate a need for nutrition and hygiene intervention to improve the weaning practice of rural area through the community nutrition education.

The characteristics of rural elderly living alone: They have lived in rural area since their marriage which is over 40 years long in average, The tend to be satisfied with living apart themselves. The majority of the families are the first son in their family. In home management regard: First, in family relationship, the way the elderly in their nuclear family state communicate with their spouse is limited, and they hardly speaks together. So it is encouraged for couples to forge their own specific relationship and to plan for their odd age in their younger age. Also, they tend to be satisfied with living separated from their children, but at the same time, the closer they live in distance from their children, the more often they meet their children as well as they talk on the phone. They especially depend on their first son for offerings for ancestors and matters to occur after their death, while they get emotional support from daughters. Second, in family finance, their income varies in range from 200,000 to 3,000,000 won. In the majority f the famines, the wives are in charge of finance. The cost of living is mainly spent on flood, clothing, and housing, or the cost of offerings for ancestors if they are the head family. Third, Meanwhile, the housewives under 70 years old are positive about household work and tend to consider it pleasant for their children and their husband.

The purpose of this study was to compare and analyze the body composition, muscle circumference, and muscle activity of men in their 30s and 50s when the resistance exercise program was applied for 12 weeks, and to provide basic data for the preparation of the resistance exercise program for middle-aged men before entering old age. Nine men in their 30s and eleven 11 men in their 50s participated in the moderate intensity resistance exercise program for 12 weeks. Two weeks before the experiment, body composition, muscle circumference, and EMG were pre-tested, and then body composition and muscle circumference were additionally measured at the 8th week. Body composition, muscle circumference, and EMG were measured within 2 weeks after the 12 week exercise program. The measured data were compared and analyzed by Mixed design two-way ANOVA, and the following results were obtained. The body composition showed a significant difference only in the skeletal muscle mass, and it increased in the 30s group at 8 weeks. Muscle circumference did not show significant difference according to group and time. Muscle activity showed a significant difference according to group and time, and pectoralis major and triceps brachii showed a significant decrease to 30s group. The pectoralis major was higher in the 30s group at all times. In summary, when applying a 12-week resistance exercise program for young men and middle-aged men, the effect of improving muscle strength may appear similar, but they are not consistent, and it is thought that gradual changes in training variables are needed to improve muscle mass.

본 연구는 저성장 고령화 시대에 노후대비 수단으로 관심 받고 있는 부동산 임대소득에 주목하여 연구를 진행하였다. 소득의 단절과 평균수명의 연장으로 힘든 노후 생활을 하여야 하는 시기에 임대소득은 사회의 안전망으로서 기능을 수행한다고 보여진다. 이에 본 연구는 전국에 임대부동산을 소유한 1,025가구를 대상으로 다음과 같은 연구를 하였다. 첫째, 임대부동산 소유자 가구특성과 부동산임대소득에 어떠한 관련성이 있는지를 분석하고 둘째, 임대소득 외에 다른 소득 활동을 하는 집단과 소득 활동 없이 임대소득만 있는 집단 간의 임대소득에 차이가 있는지를 살펴보았다. 분석 결과, 인구 사회학적 특성 중에는 성별과 배우자 유무가 임대소득에 유의미한 변수로 파악되었고. 경제적 특성 중에는 소득과 총부채액 등이 유의미한 변수로 나타났다. 소득 활동을 하는 경우 임대소득은 낮고, 총 부채액이 많은 경우 임대소득은 높았다. 그러나 금리가 올라가고 예측 불가능한 원인으로 경제 불황이 장기화될 경우 투자자는 2중고에 고통 받을 수도 있다. 이에 대비한 부동산보유 기간 완화 등 부동산 정책적 대안 검토가 요구된다.

The Maasai community from Kenya is highly esteemed for their strong adherence to traditional cultures and ethno medicine. This is attributed to their age-old traditional mechanisms of passing down knowledge to the younger generation. Adoption to new socio-economic lifestyle and urbanization has been associated with development of diabetes, which has been reported among some indigenous pastoral communities in Kenya. Documentation of traditional methods of treatment and management of diabetes by the Maasai has not yet been reported, yet it is noteworthy. Thirty traditional healers from Narok County were purposively selected and interviewed about traditional knowledge of antidiabetic medicinal plants, parts used, preparation dosage and administration. A total of 14 antidiabetic plant species distributed within 13 genera and 12 families were identified and documented as herbal medicine used in the management of diabetes. The most highly cited plant species was Dovyalis abyssinica (20%), the plant family Flacourtiaceae and Rhamnaceae (2 plant species each) recorded the highest number of plant species while the most frequently used plant part was the roots (46%). Literature review revealed that some of the cited plants have known phytochemicals with antidiabetic activity; the study recommends further scientific investigation to validate their efficacy and safety.

Background: Oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is endemic in the Eastern Anatolian region of Turkey. The present study was performed to identify risk factors for ESCC that specifically reflect the demography and nutritional habits of individuals living in this region. Materials and Methods: The following parameters were compared in 208 ESCC patients and 200 control individuals in the Eastern Anatolian region: age, sex, place of living, socioeconomic level, education level, smoking, alcohol intake, nutritional habits, and food preservation methods. Results: The mean age of ESCC patients was 56.2 years, and 87 (41.8%) were 65 years-old or older. The ratio of women to men in the patient group was 1.39/1. ESCC patients consumed significantly less fruit and yellow or green vegetables and more hot black tea, 'boiled yellow butter', and mouldy cheese than did control individuals. Residence in rural areas, smoking, and cooking food by burning animal manure were also significantly associated with ESCC. Conclusions: The consumption of boiled yellow butter and mouldy cheese, which are specific to the Eastern Anatolian region, and the use of animal manure for food preparation were identified as risk factors in this region. Further studies are required to potentially identify the carcinogenic substances that promote the development of ESCC in this region.

본 연구는 노년기 영적안녕감과 죽음 준비도 그리고 내세관이 죽음에 대한 태도에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 또한 죽음에 대한 올바른 인식과 태도를 형성하여 죽음불안을 경감시키고, 만족스러운 노년의 삶을 살아갈 수 있도록 실천적 개입기술을 개발하고자 하는데 목적이 있다. 연구방법은 원주시에 거주하는 65세 이상의 노인들에게 설문지법으로 조사하여 SPSS 통계프로그램으로 결과를 도출하였다. 주요결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 영적안녕감과 죽음준비도 그리고 내세관이 죽음에 대한 태도에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과 유의미한 (p<.001) 차이가 나타나 영향이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째는 내세관, 죽음준비도, 영적 안녕감이 죽음에 대한 태도에 미치는 영향의 상대적 중요도 차이를 분석한 결과는 (P<.001)로 99.9% 신뢰수준 이상에서 통계적으로 유의한 영향관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 즉 죽음준비도, 영적 안녕감 순으로 죽음에 대한 태도에 영향을 미치며, 내세관은 다른 두변수가 영향을 미칠 경우 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 변수로 나타났다. 셋째는 인구사회학적 변인 포함 후 죽음준비도, 내세관, 영적 안녕감이 죽음에 대한 태도에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과 경제수준차이에서만 (p<.05) 통계적으로 유의한 음의 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 죽음 준비도, 영적 안녕감은 노인의 삶의 질을 좌우하는 부분으로서 죽음불안을 해소하는 데 큰 영향이 있음을 본 연구를 통해 확인하였다. 따라서 본 연구의 의미는 죽음에 대한 불안을 긍정적으로 해소할 수 있다는 점을 검증할 수 있었다는데 의미가 있다.
