The goal of this study is twofold: (1) to identify how well the predictors of family resilience using selected ENRICH subscales measure couple resilience of spouse abusing couples; (2) to verify how predictors of family resilience differentiate abusive partners from non-abusive partners through discriminant analysis. The results show that nonviolent couples have significantly higher scores of family resilience factors than violence experienced couples. The accuracy of discriminant analysis was as high as 85.7% for non-violent couples and 85.4% for violence experienced couples. Whereas collaborative problem solving and couple's flexibility had the highest discriminant power, socioeconomic resources and transcendence and spirituality had little contributed. In addition, this study shows that predictors of family resilience have high discriminant power for distinguishing violent groups from non-violent groups. The results of this study can be clinically utilized in identifying violent groups and designing couple education programs. Based on these results, the recommendations for the future research in this area were discussed.

The problems and needs of families in Hong Kong are becoming more complex. Traditional family structures and functions are rapidly eroding. Moreover, family problems are further exacerbated by a growing number of socio-economic issues including rising divorce rates and extra-marital affairs. continuous family reunion migration from Mainland China, emotional and financial cost of caring for the older people and the changing economy which has pushed more families into hardship. In effect, more and more families are becoming vulnerable to risk. Traditional family services in Hong Kong are varied in mode, operation and provision, often overlapping in service boundaries with other family-oriented programs. In many instances, family service centers are stretched far beyond their capacity. As a consequence, they become too reactive, remedial and casework dominated. The University of Hong Kong Consultant Team recommended that family service programs have to protect vulnerable families and strengthen family capacities to promote maximum independence. The direction of family services is summarized as: strengthening families; child-centered, family-focused and community-based. New integrative family service centers aim at attaining the principles of promoting accessibility to users with minimum physical, psychological and administrative barriers; early identification of needs and intervention before the further deterioration of problems; integration of services cutting across program boundaries, and partnership between service providers to achieve efficient and effective use of scarce resources. Under the new model, multi-skilled teams can respond more proactively to a wide range of social needs, rather than addressing needs in isolation. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the new model, the consultant team has been commissioned by the government to evaluate the performance of these two-year pilot projects. More importantly, a coherent and family-friendly social policy should be formulated to strengthen family capacity against family-related problems.

본 연구 목적은 부자가족 아버지의 양육경험을 탐색하고 부자가족 아버지의 양육경험과 그 과정에서 나타난 다양한 양육의 자원과 지지체계를 심층적으로 밝히고자 하는 것이다. 연구의 참여자는 결혼 이후 이혼하여 재혼하지 않고 홀로 자녀를 양육하고 있는 아버지 5명이다. 질적 사례연구 방법을 통하여 연구가 이루어졌으며, 심층면접을 통하여 자료를 수집하였다. 사례 간 연구를 통하여 2개의 주제, 5개의 범주, 17개의 개념이 도출되었다. 연구를 통하여 부자가족 아버지의 양육 경험과 이로 인한 양육 자원이 도출되었다. 부자가족 아버지가 경험한 양육의 경험으로는 첫째, 이혼 이후 갑작스러운 양육으로 인하여 '양육 초기의 심리적 혼란'이 나타났으며 둘째, 양육으로 인하여 '위태로운 가족의 생존'의 위기를 경험하였다. 부자가족 아버지가 가진 양육의 자원으로는 첫째, 직장, 지인, 기관, 정부를 통한 '사회적 자원'이 양육을 지속할 수 있는 지지체계가 되었다. 둘째, 형제들과 부모들과 같은 '가족적 자원'이 자녀 양육을 지속할 수 있는 자원이었다. 셋째, '내적 자원'으로 부자가족 아버지가 양육을 통하여 경험하는 책임감, 만족감과 같은 심리적 자원들과 함께 자녀의 존재가 양육을 지속할 수 있는 주요 자원이었다. 본 연구를 통하여 홀로 자녀를 양육하는 부자가족 아버지가 겪는 양육의 경험 속에 나타난 양육의 지지체계와 자원 등을 기술하였고, 이를 통해 부자가족 아버지 상담의 실천적 방안과 교육 개입을 지원할 수 있는 근거가 되는 점에서 연구의 의의가 있다.

A clinical practice guideline for patients in the dying process in general wards and their families, developed through an evidence-based process, is presented herein. The purpose of this guideline is to enable a peaceful death based on an understanding of suitable management of patients' physical and mental symptoms, psychological support, appropriate decision-making, family care, and clearly-defined team roles. Although there are limits to the available evidence regarding medical issues in patients facing death, the final recommendations were determined from expert advice and feedback, considering values and preferences related to medical treatment, benefits and harms, and applicability in the real world. This guideline should be applied in a way that takes into account specific health care environments, including the resources of medical staff and differences in the available resources of each institution. This guideline can be used by all medical institutions in South Korea.

The purpose of this study was to examine the resource transfer process from female baby boomers to their children who have gotten married or plan on getting married. The following research questions were explored. (1)To what extent have female baby boomers been transferring their resources to their children supporting marriage or vice versa? (2)What are the opinions of female baby boomers on future resource transfer plans to their children? (3)What are the opinions of female baby boomers on supporting themselves in their old age, and those of their children on supporting their aging parents? In-depth interviews were conducted with 11 female baby boomers who were born between 1955 to 1963. A case study research method was used to analyze the interview results. The findings were as follows. First, economic resource was the most common type of resources that the interviewees transferred to their children. Those who could not transfer their economic resources instead transferred their instrumental resources. Second, it was anticipated that the current trend of interviewees' resource transfers would be similar in the future. In other words, those who used to transfer a large amount of economic resources to their children showed their willingness to do the same in the future. Third, the interviewees did not expect support from their children, but rather were trying to prepare for their old age by themselves. Based on the overall results, the female baby boomers' transferring economic resources to their children implied that they took responsibility for their children. This appears to stem more from to altruistic motivation than reciprocal motivation. Moreover, it can be cautiously concluded that female baby boomers have different perspectives on the transfer of their resources from male's since the interviewees had different opinions on it from their husbands'.

Purple loosestrife-Lythrum anceps (Koehne) Makino is a herbaceous perennial plant belonging to the Lythraceae family. It has been used for centuries in Korea and other Asian traditional medicine. It has been showed pharmacological effects, including anti-oxidant and anti-microbial effects. However, the mechanisms underlying its anti-cancer mechanisms are not yet understood. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of apoptosis signaling pathways by ethanol extract of Lythrum anceps (Koehne) Makino (ELM) in human leukemia U937 cells. Treatment with ELM significantly inhibited cell growth in a dose-dependent manner by inducing apoptosis, as evidenced by the formation of apoptotic bodies (ApoBDs), DNA fragmentation and increased populations of sub-G1 ratio. Induction of apoptosis by ELM was connected with up-regulation of death receptor (DR) 4 and DR5, pro-apoptotic Bax protein expression and down-regulation of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein, and inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAP) family proteins (XIAP, cIAP-1, survivin), depending on dosage. This induction was associated with Bid truncation, mitochondrial dysfunction, proteolytic activation of caspases (-3, -8 and -9) and cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase protein. Therefore, our data indicate that ELM suppresses U937 cell growth by activating the intrinsic and extrinsic apoptosis pathways, and thus may have applications as a potential source for an anti-leukemic chemotherapeutic agent.
