본 연구는 고령친화용품 체험공간의 확대 설치를 위한 근거를 파악하기 위해 체험공간에 대한 경험유무에 따른 가상가치를 평가하였다. 추정방법은 고령자 152명을 대상으로 조건부 가치측정 방법인 이중경계형(double-bounded dichotomous choice) 로그로짓모형(log-logistic model)과 로그노말모형(log-normal model)을 적용하였다. 추정결과, 로그로짓모형의 절단평균은 3,401원, 평균은 4,937원으로, 로그노말모형은 절단평균이 3,433원, 평균은 4,144원으로 나타났다. 체험공간이 삶의 질과 산업육성을 위해 필요성이 높음에도 지불의사에 대한 부정적 답변이 많았으며 체험공간의 미경험자가 가치를 상대적으로 높게 평가하였다. 체험공간 추가설치의 문제는 체험공간에 대한 가치평가의 제고뿐만 아니라 복합 기능의 도입, 다양한 고령친화용품 구비, 개인맞춤형 지원, 나아가 접근 편의성과 서비스 수준을 제고해야 할 필요성을 보여주었다.

이 연구는 2017년부터 고령사회에 진입한 우리나라의 국내 노인복지시설, 특히 경로당이 어떠한 서비스를 제공하고 있는지 알아보고 차후 발전 방향을 제시하였다. 발전 방향 제시를 위해서 독일, 스웨덴, 일본, 3곳의 사례를 조사하였고 12명의 고령층을 대상으로 심층인터뷰를 진행하였다. 심층인터뷰와 사례조사에 따르면 첫째, 많은 프로그램으로 사람들이 많이 참여할 수 있도록 하는 것, 둘째, 경로당이 결코 나이가 많은 노인들만 이용하는 곳이 아니라는 분위기로 만들어야 한다는 것, 셋째, 노인들이 스스로 사회에 참여하고 자립할 수 있도록 프로그램을 제공하는 것이 중요하다. 현재 경로당은 지역별로 다른 프로그램을 적용하고 있어 어떤 방식으로 프로그램이 진행되는지 알지 못했다는 점이 이 연구의 한계점이다. 향후 연구에서는 국내의 경로당 사례를 조사하여 국내의 특성에 맞고 지역 차이 없이 공통으로 진행될 수 있는 프로그램의 구체적인 제안이 필요하다.

Background: This study had been carried out with 20 elderly subjects as its object for about one month from November 3, 2008 to December 14, 2008 in order to observe the effect of Underwater Treadmill on the elderly's walking and balance ability. Methods: Subjects were assigned either experimental group (n=10) or the control group (n=10), experimental group received Underwater Treadmill program (30 min per course, 3days a week for 6weeks). Subjects were assessed for muscle power (Nicolas Manual Muscle Test), balance (Functional Reach Test), gait ability (Time Up and Go, 10M walking test) before experiments and after experiments. Results: The results of this study were as follows; 1. After underwater treadmill exercise, the change of isometric contraction indicated a beneficial increase on lower extremity muscle power of experimental group and functional test of balance function; FRT, TUG indicated beneficial difference between groups. 2. beneficial difference between groups in walking speed of hourly index change of walking function. 3. between muscle power and balance, gait ability, we could find out there's high correlation ship between lower extremity muscle power increasing and balance and gait ability of the elderly. Conclusion: Aerobic exercise using underwater treadmill effects on muscle power strengthening of the elderly, and because of this, increase of lower extremity muscle power is very helpful not only to improvement of balance ability, but also to improvement of gait ability, so it will be used as a physical therapy program on clinic and used as an exercise program for protecting the elderly from falling down very well.

Rural Korea has been becoming heavily aged societies from the end of 20th century due to the massive depopulation of young generation and extension of the average span of human beings. Although rural communities in Korea had been traditionally based on closely webbed social relations, almost all of community self-help organizations disappeared in recent time with very strong urbanization trend. However, almost all rural villages in Korea have the village seniors' union -'NO-IN-HOE' in Korean speaking- of which members usually use, operate and maintain community facilities in terms of voluntary base. Using these facilities, most of public/common/private services and community activities have been being served or provided. So, the purpose of this study is to investigate the usage tendency of community facilities and needs of the rural elderly and to propose the improvement strategies for their optimum usage. For this purpose, data was gathered both from community (107 villages) and individual level surveys(881 older people). The statistical method used for data analysis was descriptive statistics. The major findings were as follows : It was found that the dominant family type of the rural elderly was elderly-only household (75%) with very limited economic capability. There are 2$\sim$3 common community facilities with village including the seniors' center -'KYOUNG-RO-DANG' in Korean speaking. Many of the elderly (74%) use the center once or twice per week. There are several rooms in the center, like as kitchen bathroom and health room, of which usage frequency differs respectively. Many rural elderly want assistance from out-of-village for good maintenance and free use of these facilities.

Purpose: This study aims to not only measure the elderly welfare supply index but investigate spatial patterns and determinants of local elderly welfare services in South Korea. Research design, data, and methodology: The index for local elderly welfare services is measured by employing standardized scores for critical variables related to elderly welfare. The present study utilized the GIS technique and Moran's I index to examine spatial patterns of elderly welfare services. The determinants of local elderly welfare service are analyzed by a series of regression models using R. Results: Spatial imbalance and asymmetric distribution were serious in the supply of elderly welfare service. It was also confirmed that the factors affecting the level of welfare services for the elderly vary depending on the type of service. In particular, the higher the proportion of the elderly population and the social welfare budget, the lower the level of welfare services for the elderly. Conclusions: Given the circumstance of spatial mismatch between supply and demand for elderly welfare services, it is necessary to consider and provide policy tactics about how the economic benefits and welfare budgets generated in the region can contribute to strengthening the welfare service system for the elderly.

Purpose: The study examined the effect of exercise public health center exercise program on strength, balance, body composition and blood pressure in healthy elderly women. Method: Thirty healthy elderly women were divided into three 12-week exercise groups: Tai-Chi (n=10), silver dance (n=10), and band exercise (n=10). The results were analyzed by two-way repeated ANOVA and paired t-test using SPSS 12.0 program. Results: Body weight and body mass index were significantly decreased in the Tai-Chi and silver dance groups. In addition, there was a significant increase in balance time and reduced diastolic blood pressure in Tai-Chi participant. Grip strength was significantly increased in Tai-Chi and silver dance participants, but there was no effect in the band exercise group. Agility was significantly increased in the band exercise group. Conclusion: Tai-Chi and silver dance may be beneficial to improve fitness of elderly people, although the details remain to be elucidated.

The Cases of advanced nations which have advanced welfare policy, they have headed for the deinstitutionalization and the protection of the local society. So they have expanded and improved the various policies and welfare facilities to be able to keep daily life on the base of local area. Many problems have been caused by rising the average life span of the elderly in Korea now. Under the tendency, there have been many alternative proposals to solve the problems. One of those proposals, the deinstitutionalization theory that is rated the ideal way, is the community-based care than the care in facilities for the elderly. It shows that the most ideal facility for the care is Daycare center and that it matters the system of spatial construction and standard of the facilities. Under the undetailed Korean standard of facility design, it is very important that system of spatial construction to correspond to the needs of the users and standard of the facilities are prepared from the point of view of the standard design of the domestic facilities for the elderly. The study of the book grasps the regional present situation of the domestic Daycare center and surveys the tendency of the stay and features of occupation of the user there through some case, and aims to have a thorough grip of the spatial scale by the user's behavior. It is to utilize for a proposal for preparation of the space scale, and an institution standard corresponding to user's needs in a Daycare center.
