본 연구는 침례교단의 교회 건강성을 측정할 수 있는 진단도구 개발에 관한 것이다. 이를 위해 건강한 침례교회의 정의와 건강성 요인을 살펴보고, 건강성 요인별 진단문항을 개발했다. 연구방법으로는 문헌고찰과 전문가 델파이 조사를 하였다. 이어서 쿼터 샘플링한 표본 390여 명을 대상으로 본검사를 하여 이를 기초로 탐색적 요인분석과 확인적 요인분석을 했다. 연구결과 건강한 침례교회는 그리스도의 몸 된 지체로서 교회의 본질적 특성과 침례교회 정체성을 지니고 교회의 기능을 충실히 수행하여 하나님을 영화롭게 하는 신자들의 공동체로 정의 되었다. 침례교회 건강성 요인은 공동체성, 기능의 충실성, 침례교회 정체성, 교회의 본질적 특성 등이다. 이들의 하위 요인으로 믿음의 공동체, 예배, 전 신자 제사장, 사도성 등 17개 요인으로 확인되었다. 침례교회 건강성 측정도구는 119개 진단문항이 되며, 53개 또는 23개의 축약된 진단문항으로도 측정될 수 있다.

본 연구는 한국 루터교회 내의 평신도 의식과 신앙성숙을 위한 기독교 상담, 교회 내 프로그램의 영향을 분석하고, 그 결과를 바탕으로한 교회성장요소를 제공하고자 한다. 연구대상은 한국 루터교단에 소속되어 있는 ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$교회에 출석하는 평신도를 대상으로 하였으며, 총 83부의 설문을 분석에 사용하였다. 연구도구로는 한국교회성장연구소의 교회건강 진단을 위한 NCD 평신도 설문지를 사용하였으며 신뢰도 Cronbach's ${\alpha}$는 0. 91 이었다. 종속변수에 해당하는 교회발전과 성장은 교회발전 성장, 교회발전 목표, 교회발전 조직으로 측정하였고, 독립변수인 교회프로그램과 기독교상담에 대해서는 지도자, 의례, 공동체, 사역/프로그램, 개인적 믿음/가치관으로 측정하였다. 회수된 설문은 교회발전과 성장과의 상관성을 검증을 위해 상관성 검증을 실시하였고, 교회발전과 성장에 영향을 미치는 요인을 검증하기 위해 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구결과를 볼 때 상담을 포함한 교회 내 사역 프로그램, 교우와의 관계, 공동체 활동 및 상호소통 등이 영적성장 및 자기성장과 높은 상관관계로 나타났다. 그러므로 지속적인 교회성장을 위해서는 상담사역을 중심으로 한 교회 내 공동체 프로그램의 중요성이 필요하다고 여겨진다.

Purpose: This study elicited Korean women's perceptions of the life situations that contribute to Hwabyung, a culture.bound psychiatric illness in Korea, and delineated a typology of the perceived causative factors for this illness. Method: A purposive sample of 21 Korean women was recruited from a church, a senior center in Seoul and a clinic that provides traditional Korean and westernized medical services to patients in the Gyeonggi area. Inclusion criteria were: 1) the diagnosis of Hwabyung by a traditional doctor or "stress reaction and depression" by a westernized doctor; and 2) a score greater than 40 on the Hwabyung Self.Report Instrument. Surveys using the HSRI and individual interviews using Qmethodology were used. Result: The average age of the participants was 53.7 years(range 35-84). The mean score on the HSRI was 46.2(range = 42-52). Data analysis showed that participants perceived three life situations to cause Hwabyung: vulnerable situation, lowered self.esteem, and negative life events. Conclusions: Korean women, suffering from Hwabyung, perceived at least three different causal patterns for this illness. Nursing care plans should be tailored to meet these differences.

African Americans in the United States suffer from many health disparities such as obesity, diabetes or hypertension. Lifestyle factors including diet and physical activity play an important role in prevention of these health conditions. The purpose of this research project was to assess beliefs, barriers and self-efficacy of eating a healthy diet and self efficacy of shopping for foods such as whole grains or foods designated as low fat or low sodium. Additionally, the objective was to assess beliefs about healthfulness, appropriate consumption, and protective aspect of specific foods including fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. The assessment was done using a survey instrument developed for this study. Data collection took place at two church locations. Data were obtained from 57 African Americans, mean age 50 years old (SD 12.70) completed the survey. The majority of respondents (58.1%) were females and most (75%) had at least some college education. Generally, benefits of eating healthy foods received considerably higher scores compared to barriers of eating healthy. A belief that healthy foods would help to take care of one's body received the highest mean score while a belief that healthy foods are too expensive had the highest score from all barriers. The results showed high self-efficacy of eating and purchasing healthy foods, high awareness of knowledge regarding foods associated with disease prevention but low awareness of recommendations for fruits and vegetables. The high scores for benefits, self-efficacy and knowledge regarding eating healthy foods did not translate into the perception of intake of such foods. Most participants believed that they do not eat enough of healthy foods. Interventions design to help African Americans make dietary changes should be culturally relevant and should involved working on a community level utilizing messages that are familiar and relevant to African Americans.

The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of cancer prevention and early detection education on cancer-related knowledge, attitudes, and preventive health behavior of middle-aged women in Korea. The research design was a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design. The subjects of this study were 38 middle-aged women from a church in Taegu. An Experimental group of 19 and a control group of 19 women were studied. The study was conducted from September 21, 2000 to October 27, 2000. The cancer prevention and early detection education had been provided to the experimental group for 2 weeks. The contents of the education program for the third most prevalent cancer of Korean women were : 'the risk factors of cancer', 'the early symptoms of cancer', 'the diagnostic test for cancer detection', and 'the cancer prevention methods'. The instruments used for this study were modified, cancer-related knowledge, and attitude, preventive health behavior tools of Suh et al.(1998). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, $\chi^2$-test, t-test, ANCOVA with SPSS WIN 9.0/PC. The results were as follows : 1) Hypothesis 1 that the women who get cancer prevention and early detection education will have higher scores of the cancer-related knowledge than the women do not get cancer prevention and early detection education was accepted(F=4.732, p=.037). 2) Hypothesis 2 that the women who get cancer prevention and early detection education will have higher scores of cancer-related attitudes than the women do not get cancer prevention and early detection education was rejected(F=.118, p=.733). 3) Hypothesis 3 that the women who get cancer prevention and early detection education will have higher scores of cancer-related preventive health behavior than the women who do not get cancer prevention and early detection education was rejected(F=2.250, p=.143). On the basis of the above findings, the following recommendations are suggested : 1) It is necessary to identify the variables affected on cancer-related knowledge, attitudes and preventive health behavior. 2) It is necessary to develop a well organized cancer prevention and early detection education program to change cancer-related attitude and preventive health behavior.

Osteoarthritis (OA) involves cartilage degeneration, thereby causing inflammation and pain. Cardiovascular diseases, such as dyslipidemia, are risk factors for OA; however, the mechanism is unclear. We investigated the effect of dyslipidemia on the development of OA. Treatment of cartilage cells with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) enhanced abnormal autophagy but suppressed normal autophagy and reduced the activity of transcription factor EB (TFEB), which is important for the function of lysosomes. Treatment of LDL-exposed chondrocytes with rapamycin, which activates TFEB, restored normal autophagy. Also, LDL enhanced the inflammatory death of chondrocytes, an effect reversed by rapamycin. In an animal model of hyperlipidemia-associated OA, dyslipidemia accelerated the development of OA, an effect reversed by treatment with a statin, an anti-dyslipidemia drug, or rapamycin, which activates TFEB. Dyslipidemia reduced the autophagic flux and induced necroptosis in the cartilage tissue of patients with OA. The levels of triglycerides, LDL, and total cholesterol were increased in patients with OA compared to those without OA. The C-reactive protein level of patients with dyslipidemia was higher than that of those without dyslipidemia after total knee replacement arthroplasty. In conclusion, oxidized LDL, an important risk factor of dyslipidemia, inhibited the activity of TFEB and reduced the autophagic flux, thereby inducing necroptosis in chondrocytes.
