Purpose : This study was to evaluate gait velocity and muscle activity on 3 different gait conditions in elderly women. Methods : There were one group was 20's generation(n=12), and the other group was over 60's generation (n=12). The velocity of gait was analysed for using the Footscan system, EMG(MP150) for muscle activity. Subjects were measured 3 gait condition(normal, obstacle-10cm, dual obstacle-10cm. Measured values were used by the independent t-test for analysing between groups, and repeated measurement of ANOVA for analysing within group. Results : The results were as follow: velocity and acticities of lower 4 muscles were significantly differences in experimental group. In control group, there were not significantly differences. Contrast-groups were significantly differences of velocity(obstacle, dual obstacle), muscle activities(soleus-dual obstacle, hamstring-all). Conclusion : These results indicate that elderly people are reduced gait ability in dual task, and obstacle gait. So Elderly women need to training obstacle/dual gait for preventing falling.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of education expenditure children and financial support for parents on childbirth intention and, elderly life preparation. This study uses Korean Longitudinal Survey of Women & Families data. The research subjects are married women aged between $20{\sim}45$ years old who have one child and are living with at least one parent. The analysis method includes chi-square analysis, frequency analysis, and logistic regression analysis which is suitable for presuming differences between groups and relative influence or power. As a result, the first subjective perception is that economic conditions influence childbirth intention and elderly life preparation. Second, the portion of education expenditure is a more important factor than traditional ones, such as the child's sex, the married woman's job and her income. Third, elderly life preparation is influenced by economic factors, regardless of whether they are subjective or objective factors. Finally, analyses by logistic regression analysis suggest that a decision about childbirth is influenced by education expenditure. This refer to the costs related to the child's generation. A decision about elderly life preparation is related to financial support from parents, meaning costs related to the parents's generation.

노인인구의 급증과 기능손상된 노인에 대한 장기적인 보살핌 제공과 관련 가족에 대한 요구 증가로 인해 노인학대 문제에 대한 환심이 커지고 있다. 이 연구는 다섯 개의 가상적 시나리오를 사용하여 재미한인노인과 그 자녀들의 수발상황에서의 잠재적 노인학대에 관한 인식과 원조요청 태도를 비교 분석하였다. 연구대상은 미국 로스엔젤리스에 살고 있는 한인노인 10명과 며느리를 포함하여 노인들의 자녀 19명으로 구성되었다. 내용분석 결과 수발상황의 잠재적 노인학대 문제에 관한 인식은 가족 내에 상당한 세대차이가 있었으나 원조요청 태도는 유사하였다. Mann-Whitney test로 전체 노인세대와 자녀세대를 집단비교한 결과 노인세대가 잠재적 노인학대 상황을 자녀세대보다 훨씬 덜 학대로 지각하는 경향으로 드러났다. 그러나 원조요청 태도에 있어서는 전체 노인세대와 자녀세대의 집단비교에서도 공적 원조를 활용하겠다는 의사에 유의미한 차이가 없는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 연구결과에 근거해 노인복지실천 및 프로그램 개발에 대한 함의를 논의하였다.

The study analyzed the characteristics of the daily life and the living arrangements use of the elderly with literature review after the modernization period based on the daily life perspectives. The changes in the ideology, social system, and family system, which influenced the society and families, also affected the status of the elderly and their daily lives. Consequently, they had been facing conflicts, acceptance, and internal differentiations. The characteristics of the changes in the daily lives of the elderly in different periods were as follows. The contents were written from three different perspectives, phenomenological, symbolic interaction, and Marxist. During the modernization period, the family system and the hierarchy within a family had been reformed. However, the elderly were still considered as the symbolic leader and the respected figure of the family. From a phenomenological perspective, elderlies teach the next generations and influence the family's lives. On the other hand, from a perspective of symbolic interactions, spatial adjustment behaviors toward the largest room between the elderly and the next generation were detected. The actual authority was given to the next generation. However, the elderly were still treated as the symbolic authority. Yet, as the society became more industrialized, conflicts aroused about the support of the elderly. Those, who were neglected from the family, even spent their daily time at the elderly center or the community center. The daily lives from the Marxist perspectives suggested that modernization caused the young generations, who were well-educated and had financial powers, to have initiatives. The role of the elderly was reduced and they became negligible people, who spend meaningless daily lives. The interested the Third Ages is a new perspective on the elderly, who were neglected from the industrialized society. From a phenomenological perspective, the Third Ages are the generations that seek and demand for new housing.

This study delves into the unique transformation of South Korea's elderly population, distinctively termed 'Nomad Silver'. Characterized by individuals aged 65 and above who actively seek novel experiences and embrace new activities, this demographic shift signifies a departure from traditional perceptions of the elderly. The Nomad Silver cohort, distinguished by their significant economic influence and evolving needs, necessitates a tailored approach to healthcare services. This paper underscores the importance of comprehending both the fundamental biological needs and the personalized desires of the Nomad Silver, aiming to enhance their satisfaction and overall well-being. Hospitals, in response, should innovate their services to resonate with the emotional, psychological, and social facets of this age group. Consequently, the paper proposes a four-pronged strategy for hospitals to adapt: comprehensive healthcare provision, patient-centric service development, senior health education coupled with community engagement, and establishing a generational bridge hub. Furthermore, the paper posits that catering to the Nomad Silver not only promises substantial financial gains for hospitals but also fosters new business opportunities across various sectors.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the current characteristics of healthcare and welfare policies in Japan focused on the related policies in 2000's. In Japan, with the perspectives of entering the super-aged society by 2005 and the movement of all of the baby boom generation into the elderly generation by 2015, more rapid progress to the aging society is expected. From this situation, Japanese government has developed diverse elderly-oriented strategies such as "structural reform of social security", "nursing care system" and "gold plan 21" in 2000's. However, most of the related researches targeted the period to early 2000's, excluding the papers about the individual policies. Recently in our country, many related policies have been developed such as the enforcement of "long term care insurance system for the elderly" by 5 year period reevaluations and the preparation for 2nd step of "Plan for Ageing Society and Population"(2011~2015). At this moment, the investigation on the related policies of Japan could give appropriate references to us, a late starter of aging society.

본 연구는 노인용 기능성 게임 개발을 위해 중노년층 1030명을 대상으로 여가행동과 여가콘텐츠, 게임행동과 게임콘텐츠, 기능성게임 수용의지 파악을 위한 설문을 실시하고, 결과를 토대로 수요도 및 게임 요구사항을 분석한 것이다. 분석결과 노인은 건강과 휴식, 재미, 자기계발, 스트레스 해소를 위해 등산을 비롯한 정적여가활동 및 동적여가활동을 즐기고 있었는데, 궁극적으로 여가활동 중 게임활동 선호율은 낮으나, 기능성 게임을 통해 재미와 유익함을 얻을 수 있도록 건강게임이나 시뮬레이션 게임, 치료용 게임, 체험형 스포츠 게임 등 기능성 콘텐츠를 개발해 보급한다면 이용의지는 중년층에 비해 높은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 성별, 연령별, 학력수준별, 소득수준별, 가족규모별로 일부의 수요가 다르게 나타나므로, 노인집단의 인구학적 변인을 토대로 한 게임 콘텐츠 개발을 고려해야 한다. 즉, 기능성 게임개발에 주요 목표층을 구체화하는 작업이 요구되며, 다양한 실험과 효과성 검증을 통해 편리한 이용과 기능에 대한 신뢰, 그리고 심미적 만족감을 높일 수 있도록 수요자 중심 연구개발이 지속되어야 한다.

Many social and environmental changes have emerged due to the increasing size of the aging generation. This study explored the current status of the information leisure activity of the aging generation (computer use activity, internet service participation, social community participation and blogging, UCC, etc.) and the need for serious games among elderly consumers. It analyzed the current status of serious game and information leisure span as determined by experts on elderly care at the aging welfare institute. The research methods involved applying content analysis and focus group interviews. The results were as follows: The elderly are willing to enjoy the internet and economics networks. In particular, economic investment, economic news, health, meetings, and communication are the main internet search categories. The results for serious games are less interesting than those for IT participation. The components of usefulness in terms of serious games, as identified by care experts, are simplicity, a user-friendly interface, efficacy, and certainty in using the game device. Care experts recognize that serious games represent a supplementary device to traditional physical and emotional therapy.
