The aim of modern medicine is to prolong life by fighting death. Doctors have traditionally believed that this was an ethical good deed. The negative connotation surrounding death has led to the avoidance of terminally ill patients. But in a modern society where death is medicalized, doctors have to see dying patients every day and are in a state of guilt from implementing meaningless life-sustaining treatments. Therefore, medical schools should allow medical students to embrace a new perspective through death education. Yonsei University Medical College has implemented death education since 2017 as an optional class for first and second year medical students. Students watch videos related to death once a week for 6 weeks and submit their reflections by e-mail. The professor reads the students' reflections and gives them weekly feedback. Through this coursework, students realize that death is not a medical event, but rather a part of life and completion. The ultimate purpose of death education is to transform blind life-absolutist identity into narrative identity.

Social epidemiology is a sub-discipline of epidemiology explicitly investigating social determinants of population distributions of health, disease, and well-being. Persistent pattern of social inequalities in health in spite of the broad improvement in the physical environment over the last centuries necessitated the development of this field as an approach to understand disease etiology that incorporates social experiences as more direct determinant of health. Social epidemiology incorporates theories, measurement tools, and techniques from a wide variety of other social sciences. A population perspective, the social context of behavior, contextual multilevel analysis, a developmental and life-course perspective, and general susceptibility to disease are the most important guiding concepts in social epidemiology.

In this study, software products developed in the course of testing, software managers in the process of testing software test and test tools for effective learning effects perspective has been studied using the NHPP software. The finite failure nonhomogeneous Poisson process models presented and the life distribution applied exponential and log shaped type hazard function. Software error detection techniques known in advance, but influencing factors for considering the errors found automatically and learning factors, by prior experience, to find precisely the error factor setting up the testing manager are presented comparing the problem. As a result, the learning factor is greater than autonomous errors-detected factor that is generally efficient model could be confirmed. This paper, a failure data analysis of applying using time between failures and parameter estimation using maximum likelihood estimation method, after the efficiency of the data through trend analysis model selection were efficient using the mean square error and coefficient of determination.

In this study, software products developed in the course of testing, software managers in the process of testing software test and test tools for effective learning effects perspective has been studied using the NHPP software. The finite failure non-homogeneous Poisson process models presented and the life distribution applied extreme distribution which used to find the minimum (or the maximum) of a number of samples of various distributions. Software error detection techniques known in advance, but influencing factors for considering the errors found automatically and learning factors, by prior experience, to find precisely the error factor setting up the testing manager are presented comparing the problem. As a result, the learning factor is greater than automatic error that is generally efficient model could be confirmed. This paper, a numerical example of applying using time between failures and parameter estimation using maximum likelihood estimation method, after the efficiency of the data through trend analysis model selection were efficient using the mean square error.

본 연구의 목적은 라이프코스 관점을 적용하여 배우자를 돌보는 노인의 돌봄전이유형이 건강에 미치는 영향을 분석하는 것이다. 구체적으로 돌봄전이유형은 ①비돌봄→비돌봄, ②비돌봄→돌봄, ③돌봄→돌봄, ④돌봄→비돌봄으로 구분하였고 건강은 신체적 건강과 우울로 살펴보았다. 한국고용정보원의 고령화연구패널(KLoSA) 2-6차 자료(2008-2016년)를 재구성한 후 총 3,987명으로부터 10,199건의 관찰값을 도출하였다. STATA 16.0프로그램을 활용해 패널분석모형으로 분석하였다. 분석결과, 신체적으로는 '비돌봄→비돌봄'일 때 보다 '비돌봄→돌봄'과 '돌봄→비돌봄'에서 건강이 낮아졌다. 정신적으로는 '비돌봄→돌봄'과 '돌봄→돌봄'에서 우울이 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 노년기 배우자돌봄제공자가 신체적 건강과 우울을 증진할 수 있는 방안을 제언하였다.

Objectives: Grounded in a life-course perspective, this study examined the effects of non-coresident children's transitions to marriage and parenthood on the frequency of contact with their parents. Gender of adult children and the educational levels of both adult children and their parents were evaluated as potential moderators of the transition-contact linkages. Method: The analytic sample consisted of adult children aged between 20 and 50 whose parents participated in four waves of the Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing (2006, 2008, 2010, 2012). For analysis, fixed effects regression models were estimated using the xtreg procedure in Stata. Results: First, transition to marriage was associated with a decrease in face-to-face contact, whereas a greater increase in contact with parents via phone, mail, email etc. occurred only among newly married with less than college education compared to the newlywed with college degrees. Second, transition to parenthood was associated with an increase in contact via phone, mail, email etc. In addition, a greater increase in face-to-face contact was found with parents who completed high school or more education compared to those with less than high school education. Conclusions: The findings suggest that adult children's transitions to marriage and parenthood may bring about increases in contact with their parents, particularly for adult children with less than college education and parents with more than high school education.

본 연구는 크게 두 가지의 연구목적을 갖는다. 첫째, 생애과정관점에 따라 중고령자들의 연령집단별 삶의 만족과 노화불안의 수준을 살펴봄으로써 대도시에서 노년기를 맞이한 사람들의 삶의 현황을 파악한다. 둘째, 노화과정에서 심리적 안녕감을 나타내는 삶의 만족 제고와 노화불안 감소에 기여하는 영향요인, 즉 개인의 객관적인 삶의 조건을 의미하는 인구사회학적 변수들의 영향력과 고령친화 환경의 영향력을 상호 검토함으로써 고령친화환경 조성을 통한 시사점을 제안한다. 이를 위해 본 연구는 서울에 거주하는 베이비부머를 포함하는 노년기 세대를 대상으로 비례층화표집 방법을 활용하여 조사한 4,000명의 자료를 분석하였다. 주요 분석결과를 중심으로 논의를 정리하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 연령집단의 연령대가 증가함에 따라 삶의 만족 수준은 낮아지는 반면, 노화불안의 수준은 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 연령집단의 연령대가 높아질수록 삶의 만족과 노화불안에 대한 개인의 객관적 삶의 조건들의 설명 분산은 높아지는 경향성을 나타냈으며, 연령집단별 영향변수는 상이하게 나타남에 따라 노년기 연구에 있어서 생애과정 관점의 유용성을 보여주었다. 셋째, 인구사회학적 변수들을 통제한 상태에서 연령집단별 고령친화환경 요인들이 삶의 만족에 대한 설명분산이 높게 나타난 반면, 노화불안에 대한 설명분산은 상대적으로 낮게 나타났으며, 후기노인의 경우 장년층에 비해 설명분산이 높게 나타났다. 한편 연령집단별 삶의 만족과 노화불안에 영향을 미치는 고령친화환경 요인들은 연령집단별 공통적인 요인들이 존재하는 반면, 연령집단별 상이한 요인들도 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과들에 따라 노년기를 보내는 개인의 삶의 만족을 제고하고 노화불안을 감소시키기 위한 정책설계 방향에 대해 논의하였다.

The Multi-cultural Family Support Center provides various educational programs and services for multi-cultural families. However, there are controversies regarding integration and assimilation, ethnic identity and ethnocentrism, and state-sponsored multi-culturalism. From the home economist's perspective, it was necessary to explore the direction of integration of family life culture in the multi-cultural society. This study concluded that there is a necessity to accept foreign culture and create a new culture while still maintaining their and our own cultural identity respectively. For this purpose, integration and assimilation must progress side by side to maintain the cultural identity and stability of multi-cultural families. But, women migrants are to adapt in their everyday life, they need to attend a Korean-language course and take part in a traditional Korean culture program such as having an assimilational characteristics. Also for the happiness of multi-cultural families ultimately not for the confronted problems, it requires sometimes education of changing migrants' own traditional customs and life culture partly. In this sense, educational and cultural programs held by Multi-Cultural Family Support Center are meaningful and their importance in adapting into everyday life must be recognised by all of us.
