This study was aimed to investigate the relationship between abuse and suicide risk focused on the Korean elderly over 65 years old living with their families. The data for the study was collected from 1,193 people in Incheon metropolitan city, Kyunggi and Chungnam province. Among them, 711 elderly adults who experienced abuse within their families, were analysed for the study. The results were as follows: First, the group who had experienced abuse was revealed at 29.8%, and the group who had experienced suicide was revealed at 23.1%. Second, the victims of abuse at older ages affects the risk of suicide. Moreover, considering the elderly population under the control of influencing variables such as socioeconomic traits, ADL and depression, the risk of suicide for the group of being abused was higher than the group that was never abused. Third, four groups of elderly(groups without both abuse and suicide risks, the group with only abuse victims, the group with only suicide risks, and the group with both abuse and suicide risk) were divided based on the victims of abuse and the risk of suicide. The group without abuse and suicide risk was positive in subjective economic status, ADL, number of diseases and depression. On the contrary, the group with both abuse and suicide risk was negative in the above indices. The study indicated that there were some similar traits between abuse risk groups and suicide risk groups, but the group with suicide risk was lower than the group with abuse risk in ADL and depression.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the risk factors of the musculoskeletal workload of mid-old-age female caregivers by identifying work postures and subjective symptoms. Method: This study was carried out on a total of 206 subjects 206 mid-old-age caregivers(45~65 years old) from November 2009 to April 2010: 206 mid-old-age caregivers (45~65 years old) at the long-term hospital. A questionnaires survey on general factors and subjective symptoms of subjects was conducted. The risk factors of the musculoskeletal workload evaluation method is based on OWAS, RULA, REBA according to occupation properties. Results: The analysis of the rates of the subjective symptoms showed that 78.6% subjects experience low back pain. The analysis of the work type showed that transfer is the highest rate(36.3%) and position change is the second(18.2%). The analysis of the work postures showed that the thrusted back with twisting position over $20^{\circ}$ is highest rate(37.4%), the bended back forward with twisting position is the second(27.5%). Conclusion: This study suggested that the need of preventive education for caregivers and workload improve. It is hoped that subsequent study on the difference of subjective symptoms between educated caregivers and non educated caregivers will be conducted.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the influences of hospital employees' daily life posture habits and work-related factors upon musculoskeletal subjective symptoms. Methods: This study was a descriptive survey study. Data were collected using structured a self-report questionnaire between April 1 and May 31, 2015. One hundred and ninety two employees were recruited in three hospitals. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, ${\chi}^2$ test, t-test, and binomial logistic regression. Results: The habit of leaning on one side and the habit of bending the back in an improper posture are key postures based on lifestyle affecting musculoskeletal subjective symptoms in neck, shoulders, arms, waist, and legs. Labours accompanying repeated arm movements for a long time are key work-related risk factors affecting musculoskeletal subjective symptoms in arms. Conclusion: The results of this study confirmed that, to prevent musculoskeletal diseases, it is necessary to identify and mediate personal factors like daily life posture habits as well as work-related risk factors. They may be utilized as basic materials for education of musculoskeletal health promotion and development of life guidance programs.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence and risk factors of suicidal ideation among middle class Korean. Methods: Cross sectional study was designed for secondary data analysis. From the 8th Korea Health Panel survey (2008~2013), a total of 6,037 data was drawn and analyzed by developmental stage using descriptive statistics including frequency, percentage, $x^2$ test, and logistic regression analysis. Results: Across all age groups, high physical-mental stress, frustration, anxiety about the future and low self-perceived health status or social class were found to be the risk factors of suicidal ideation. Peer-compared subjective health status and frustration significantly influenced the adolescents. The young adults'suicidal ideation was mainly influenced by physical and mental stress, frustration and absence of economic activity. For the middle-aged, physical and mental stress, frustration, future anxiety, low peer-compared subjective health status were found to be the major influencing factors. The predominant risk factors for the elderly were frustration and low peer-compared subjective health status. Conclusion: Making comparisons to others significantly influence suicidal ideation throughout all life cycles. Improvement of mental health and suicide prevention can be enhanced by avoiding negative comparison to others.

최근 우리나라 연안 해역에서는 선박 간의 빈번한 조우 상황, 선박 교통량 증대 및 대형화로 인해 해양사고의 잠재 위험이 증가하고 있지만 이러한 통항 선박의 위험도를 평가할 수 있는 모형은 개발되어 있지 않는 실정이다. 또한 개정된 해상교통안전법에서는 해상교통 환경평가를 실시하도록 요구하고 있지만 이 진단 또한 외국평가모델에 의해 평가를 하고 있어 실제 우리나라 연안 해역 특성 및 선박운항자의 위험도 인식이 반영된 모델이 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 설문분석을 통해 선박운항자가 운항 중 처해 있는 상황에 대하여 선박운항자가 느끼는 주관적 위험도 인식에 대한 모형을 개발하고 해상위험도 표출시스템에 이식하기 위한 연구이다. 다양한 요인들에 대해 분산 분석과 다중비교 분석을 통해 주관적 위험도에 대한 요인들의 영향력을 통계적으로 확인하였다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 분석결과를 토대로 해상교통위험도를 측정할 수 있는 모형을 개발하고, 이를 통해 지리정보시스템 기반의 해상 위험도 표출 시스템에 적용하여 운항중인 선박에 대한 위험정도를 화면상에 표출하여 선박운항자들로 하여금 미리 위험을 회피하고자 하는데 활용될 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 위험과 안전에 대해 실존심리학적 관점의 고찰을 실시하였다. 실존주의 철학과 실존주의 심리학적 논의들을 통해서 실존적 과제로서 '위험'을 파악하였으며, 실존적 욕구로서 '안전'을 규정하였다. 나아가 실존적 과제의 미해결성과 실존적 욕구의 비충족성으로 인해 발생되는 실존적 불안으로서 '주관적 위험'을 파악할 수 있음을 제시하였다. 또한, 실존적 불안으로서 '주관적 위험'은 '위험'과 '안전'에 대한 실존적 직면과 완성으로 나아가게 하는 나침판으로서 역할을 하고 있음과 발현된 현상적 상태를 통해 문제적 고착 상태에 놓여 있음을 파악할 수 있는 신호로서의 기능을 수행하고 있음을 밝혔다. 그리고 실존적 불안으로서 '주관적 위험'의 문제적 고착 양상은 발현된 현상에 대칭적인 특성과 상태로 인식될 수 있는 경험과 정보를 공급하는 방법을 통해서 조절할 수 있음을 제안하였다. 실존심리학적 관점으로 '위험'과 '안전'을 파악하려는 시도는 세월호 참사를 비롯한 한국 사회의 인재형 사고에 대해 보다 근원적인 원인 분석과 대책을 마련해 줄 수 있을 것이라고 생각한다. 이를 통해 향후 위험 감소와 안전 향상을 위한 심리학적인 접근을 보다 다양한 방면에서 효과적으로 적용할 수 있는 시사점을 제시해 줄 수 있을 것이다. 또한, 본 연구를 통해 제시된 여러 견해들을 종합해서 다양한 실존적 주제들의 상태를 조절하는 방법[주제상태조절이론(Theme Condition Adjustment Theory: TCAT)]에 대한 이론적 토대를 마련할 수 있을 것이라고 기대한다.

Objective: This study was performed to evaluate the child-care teachers' job in relation to physical work. Background: Child-care teacher is directly related to the quality of child care. And their physical activity is higher than general education teachers because the proportion of day care is high. But analyzes of child-care teachers' job burdens and the work environment associated with physical activity is not well established. Method: To conduct this study, the child-care teachers' job was classified into 18 physical works. After classification, posture was evaluated by ergonomic posture evaluation schemes of OWAS, RULA, REBA and evaluated for each physical part. Next, musculoskeletal subjective symptoms were analyzed. Results: The results showed the following: The highest assessment on the posture evaluation was "helping children to ride a school bus", "feeding: meal/snack", "brushing children's teeth" and "arrangement of nap-stuff". The rank of high-risk assessment on the neck/trunk/leg part was arranged by: "feeding: meal/snack", "helping children to ride a school bus", "making nap", "arrangement nap-stuff" and "brushing children's teeth". The rank of high-risk assessment on the upper limbs part was arranged by: "helping children to ride a school bus", "the bust - group activity", "meal/snack time - preparing, feeding, arrangement", "nap time - preparing, arrangement", "brushing children's teeth", and "using the toilet". According to the results of each musculoskeletal subjective symptom, teachers ordered the pain area as follows: waist, shoulder, leg/feet, and neck, and they showed more pain on trunk than the upper limbs. Conclusion: To sum up the results from ergonomic posture evaluation and a subjective symptom, the following are high working pressures: "feeding: meal/snack", "the bust - group activity", "making nap", "brushing children's teeth" with deep bending and waist twisting, "helping children to ride a school bus", "brushing children's teeth" with lifting shoulder; "meal/snack time - preparing, arrangement", "nap time - preparing, arrangement", and "using the toilet" with moving or an up-down position in their job. Application: The results of this study might be information for improvement of the child-care teachers' job environment.
