The purpose of current study was to investigate the effects of Ki-therapy which improves mood state and relieves pain on the elderly with chronic illness. The subjects were 42 elderly and convenience sampling(incidental sampling) was used to prevent contamination to the control group. Frequency, %, $X^2$, t-test, and repeated measure ANOVA by SPSS PC + program were used to analyze the data. The mean age of subjects was 72.95(Control group), 73.10(experimental group). Number of complains was 2.45(control group), 2.65 (experimental group). All of demographic characteristics of subjects. that is, age, weight. number of complains. educational background. family type. economic state, perceived health state were homogeneous. There are many difficulties in ADL & IADL. 14.2% in shopping, mode of transportation, ability to handle finances. 11.9% in ability to use telephone. continence, 7.1% in bathing, food preparation, transfer, and housekeeping. As the result of this study. slight improvement of mood state and pain relief were found. Although 3 improved items of 'clear-headed', 'lively', and 'nervous' were statistically significant. the pain relief was not statistically significant. It requires repeated treatment and measurement. And suggested case study or qualitative study in further studies because manufacturing of environment(i. e. rain) is very difficult in community people.

According to industralization the percentage of working women with children is on the continuous increase. There has been a growing concern over important health problems of middle-aged women, especially with working women. But we didn't know how to care of themselves yet even if it was importment to fint out that. So this reseach was an attempt to identify the nature of experience of their health management so that it is to be contributed to be knowledge development of women' health management strategy. The phenomenological approach in qualitative studies was used to serve this purpose. Subjects were 10 middle-aged working women having children in well-being state. The result of this study was as follows : 'Diet pattern' was to unbalanced and irregular but they tried to correct balanced and harmony dietary life. 'Exercise' was very simple and irregular. They have closed-minded of kinds of exercise. 'Controlling the environment and their minds' was to obtain emotional stability and be free from stress. They put emphasis on refraining from being overtiring and watching their condition carefully. They always tried to keep the peaceful mind. 'Reducing fatigue' was to be bathing, hot streamed-bath, finger pressure therapy, massage, singing, communication with others and maintenance of personal relationships. 'Identification of self-esteem' was very key point to maintain their health. Working regulary gave them to please and value of the life. 'Work oriented life pattern' was to be harm their health state so that it need to be available clinics to check up their health state after work. The rest of this study showed that it need to be social support for working women to work with comfort. Further study regarding working women engaging in the lower level is nesessary.

α-pinene is a natural volatile organic compound secreted by coniferous trees to protect themselves from attacks by insects, microorganisms, and viruses. Recently, studies have reported that α-pinene possesses pharmacological effects on various biological reactions such as anxiolytic, sleep-enhancing, anti-nociceptive, and inflammatory activity. Thus, forest bathing has recently received great attention as a novel therapy for treating severe diseases as well as psychological issues. However, appropriate places and timings for effective therapies are still veiled, because on-site monitoring of α-pinene gas in forests is barely possible. Although portable chemosensors could allow real-time analysis of α-pinene gas in forests, the α-pinene sensing properties of chemosensors have never been reported thus far. Herein, we report for the first time, the α-pinene sensing properties of an oxide semiconductor gas sensor based on rhombohedral In₂O₃ (h-In₂O₃) nanoparticles prepared by a microwave-assisted hydrothermal reaction. The h-In₂O₃ nanoparticle sensor showed a high response to α-pinene gas at ppm levels, even under humid conditions (for example, relative humidity of 50 %). The purpose of this research is to identify the potential of oxide semiconductor gas sensors for implementing portable devices that can detect α-pinene gas in forests in real-time.

This study was carried out to idenify the health problems and needs of crippled persons in order to develop a community based rehabilitation service program through public health center. Information on health problems and needs were obtained from 120 crippled persons staying at home by questionaire and a measuring ADL. The results were summarized as follows 1. Among 120 subjects, male crippled (70.3%) outnumbered female crippled (29.7%). Many crippled persons belonged to the 40-49 age group (33.6%) while others were over 60 years (17.4%). There were 36.8% crippled persons with an elementary education, 26.5% had completed high school, 14.5% had completed middle school. 31% of the crippled persons were employed but most of them had unskilled jobs. 80% of the respondents replied that their monthly income was under 800,000 won. 2. The major causes of their handicap were due to acquired factors(92%) such as accidents, in fectious & communicable diseases and chronic diseases rather than congenital factors(8%). Crippled persons who belong to the first grade of disabilities were 14.8%, the second grade 35.7%, the third grade 21.7%, the forth grade 12.2%, the fifth grade 12.2% and the sixth grade 3.5%. 3. This study measured the degree of the ADL of crippled persons by a modified Barthel Index including 11 items. 73.5% of them were fully independent, 8.5% required minimal help, 2.7% required moderate help, 6.0% required substantial help and 9.4% were unable to perform task. In response to the 11 items of ADL, crippled persons required more help in stair climbing, ambulation and bathing than in other items. 4. In responding to concerning health problems, 10.3% of the subjects replied with incontinence, 8.5% malnutrition, 7.6% fecal incontinence and bedsores 2.6%. Chronic diseases which needs treatment were chronic pain(61.0 %), hypertension(16.5%) and diabetes(16.5%) 5. To the question of what type of rehabilitation services subjects required, chronic diseases management(52.1%) and physical therapy (41.2%) were the highest. The most important social welfare services subjects required were economics support (51.3%) and introductions to job opportunities(42%).

본 연구는 물을 매개로 하는 물리적 치유의 경관이 갖는 신체적, 문화적, 공간적, 경제적 의의가 어떤 형태로 여성을 중심으로 하는 공간에서 나타나는지 살펴보고, 이를 여성을 위한 쉼터로서의 기능, 여성을 위한 배려의 기능, 여성을 형상화한 기능으로 나눠 검토하는 것에 목표를 두고 있다. 여성을 위한 쉼터로서의 기능에는 신체적 의의가 가장 두드러지게 나타나며, 온천수와 온천욕, 분위기, 부대시설, 안전한 밤문화 등으로 구체화된다. 이러한 매개를 통해 여성은 자유로움, 온천수가 온전한 상태로 회귀시켜주는 힘, 끊임없이 제공받는 치유의 장치, 안전하게 보호해주는 것, 마음을 열고 자연스럽게 타인과의 교류 등을 느끼게 된다. 다음으로 여성을 위한 배려의 기능에서는 물을 매개로 하는 치유의 경관이 갖는 문화적 의의가 두드러지게 되는데, 이는 온천에서 발견할 수 있는 문화이기도 하지만, 배려에 바탕을 둔 일본의 문화가 자연스럽게 혼합되어 나타나는 현상이라 할 수 있다. 예를 들어, 송영버스, 오카미상 혹은 나카이상의 서비스, 장식품, 장난스러운 설치물, 개인공간의 확보 등을 통해서 다양한 즐거움을 느낄 수 있고, 누군가 지지해주고 혹은 지켜주고 있다는 느낌을 받게 되며, 신체적인 아름다움뿐만 아니라 정신적인 아름다움까지도 추구하게 된다. 마지막으로 여성을 형상화한 기능은 문화적, 공간적, 경제적 의의 등 폭넓게 나타나는데, 광고매체, 온천과 관련된 표식, 신사, 오브제, 상품화된 매개체 등을 통해 다양하게 드러난다. 이러한 기능은 건강함, 쉼, 편안함, 친숙함 혹은 익숙함, 사랑이 이루어지거나 혹은 행복한 결혼 생활로 이어진다는 이미지 등으로 승화된다. 이상을 통해 온천을 중심으로 나타나는 여성을 위한 치유의 요소는 자유로움, 안전함, 신체를 뛰어넘는 효과, 즐거움, 치유의 지속성, 아름다움, 희망 등으로 수렴되며, 이러한 요소들이 유기적으로 결합될 때 여성의 온전하지 않음은 온전함으로 회복되는 치유의 효과가 드러나는 것이라 할 수 있다.
