Purpose: The aim of this study is to examine the reciprocal causal relationship between social activities and health with reference to the cognitive function level among community-dwelling older adults. Methods: We conducted a longitudinal data analysis using the $4^{th}$ (Time 1) and $5^{th}$ (Time 2) waves from the Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing adopting cross-lagged panel analysis (CLPA). Results: A total of 3,473 community-dwelling older adults were included in the analysis: 2,053 in the normal cognitive function group, 912 in the mild cognitive impairment group, and 508 in the moderate to severe cognitive impairment group. The CLPA revealed that higher levels of social activities at Time 1 significantly influenced better subjective health perception at Time 2 in all three groups. In addition, better subjective health perception at Time 1 significantly influenced higher levels of social activities at time 2 only in the normal cognitive function group. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that participating in social activities has positive effects on health regardless of the cognitive function level in community-dwelling older adults. This finding suggests that there is a need to develop strategies that can be used to encourage older adults with cognitive decline to maintain participation in social activities.

본 연구는 가족 사회자본과 지역사회 사회자본이 청소년 학교적응에 미치는 영향을 다층분석을 통해 검증한 것이다. 한국아동 청소년패널조사 2010 데이터의 중1패널 2차년도 데이터를 활용하여 93개 지역사회에 거주하는 중학교 2학년 청소년 2,056명을 대상으로 기술통계 분석, 상관관계 분석, 위계적 선형모형 분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과 첫째, 학교적응 전체변량 중 6.1%가 지역사회 간 차이로 나머지 93.9%가 개인 간 차이로 설명되며 학교적응이 지역사회별로 통계적 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 가족 사회자본과 관련하여 방임을 적게 경험할수록, 학대를 적게 경험할수록, 부모가 자녀의 친한 친구들에 대해 관심을 가지고 잘 알수록 자녀가 학교에 더 잘 적응하였다. 셋째, 지역사회 사회자본과 관련하여 공동체의식이 높은 지역사회 청소년이 학교에 더 잘 적응하였다. 분석결과를 바탕으로 청소년 학교적응 향상을 위한 가족 사회자본, 지역사회 사회자본 지원 방안을 논의하였다.

In this study, the series of Causal Loop Diagrams (CLDs) is to be elaborated and the System-Thinking (ST) approach is to be presented to understand the dynamic characteristics residing in the above development process of rebuilding communities. The ST approach refers to the CLDs analyzing 19 remarkable Korean CRP cases, and leads to a conclusion including some of policy instruments to support the bottom-up CRPs in Korea.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the longitudinal relationship between Korean youth's social withdrawal, depression and community sense mediated by achievement values. For this purpose, we analyzed three years of the longitudinal panel data (2011-2013) of the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey (KCYPS). Data were collected from 2,351 first year middle school students using the latent growth model using SPSS 18.0 and AMOS 22.0. The main analysis results were as follows. First, social withdrawal and depression decreased and community sense increased as time passed. These results supported the linear change model. Second, the initial status of social withdrawal and depression had effects on the initial status and change rates of community sense. Achievement values, the partial mediator, had a positive influence on initial community sense but had a negative influence on change rates of community sense. We discussed how to improve Korean youth's community sense based on these results.

지역사회 네트워크의 필요성과 효과에 대한 많은 기대와 논의에도 불구하고 실제 현장에서의 많은 네트워킹 노력은 성과를 보지 못하거나 쉽게 와해되곤 한다. 이러한 문제의식에서 출발한 이 연구는 질적 연구방법을 활용하여 네트워크를 구축해 나가려는 사회복지 네트워커의 관점에서 지역사회 네트워크 조직경험을 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 4개 지역, 6명 현장 실천가들을 심층면접 하였고 이들의 지역사회 네트워크 형성 유지 경험을 분석하여 네트워크 조직가가 되길 원하는 사회복지사들에게 필요한 실천 지침을 제공하고자 하였다. 분석 결과는 총 12개 범주와 4개 주제(리더/리더십 구축, 파트너십/팀웍 형성, 환경의 특성과 영향력 이해, 네트워크 유지 방안 마련)로 구분되었다.
